Teacher arrested for sex offense with student BY ELIOT DUKE Staff Writer

A teacher at Thomasville High School has been arrested and charged with having a sexual relationship with one of his students. Edward Heath Williamson, 33, of 10 Johnia Court, is facing two counts of a sexual act between a teacher and a student for an alleged relationship with a 17-yearold female. Williamson, THS’ Instructional Technological Facilitator, is accused of having sexual

intercourse with the female, who is one of his students, on two separate occasions while on school grounds. Williamson has been suspended with pay until an investigation is completed. “We were told about some improprieties and we investigated and found there was some truth to it,” THS Principal Deboy Beamon said. “He broke a sacred code and you just don’t do that.” According to Det. Jeff McCrary, Thomasville Police Department received notification by the THS

Child custody dispute leads to shooting

BY KARISSA MINN

Two Ledford High School graduates are serving with the U.S. Navy on the same ship in efforts to help the people of Haiti recover from the country’s massively destructive earthquake. Machinist’s Mate Third Class Tres Hunter Litten and Petty Officer Third Class Michael Long, both from Thomasville, are serving aboard the USS Carl Vinson. Valerie Hunter said her 23-year-old son Tres has been in Haiti since Jan. 15 helping to make water clean and usable for the Haitian people. “We had an e-mail that said that they had, at

DavidsonWorks seeks director CATCHING BY KARISSA MINN Staff Writer

DavidsonWorks is seeking a new executive director after the resignation of Nancy Borrell, effective Dec. 24. The nonprofit county workforce development agency helps businesses find qualified employees, provides training for displaced workers, and runs several other programs aimed at training and employing county citizens. County Manager Robert Hyatt said that Catherine Lambeth, who worked as director of the Davidson County Department of Social Services, is taking over as interim director until a replacement can be found.

“After her resignation, [Lambeth] also served a similar interim position with the department of senior services,” Hyatt said. “The director left there, and she came in and helped us out for a three or four month period of time until we were able to get a fulltime director in place.” Hyatt said that DavidsonWorks likely will begin advertising for the position in February, and he expects it will hire a full-time director in the spring. The interview team will be made up of the county human resources director, Hyatt and a member of the agency’s board of directors. “The new director will continue the

HEALTH

Patients too often fail to follow drug regimen Cervical cancer: The best PUBLIC PULSE

LIFELONG HEALTH

DR. DAVID LIPSCHTIZ Syndicated Columnist

Are you taking more than three prescription medications daily? If so, there is a 70 percent chance that you’re taking them incorrectly or not taking them at all. Not surprisingly, noncompliance is one of the major reasons why treatments fail. A recent article published in the New England Journal of Medicine describes a study that monitored medication use electronically. It found that most noncompliant patients would omit taking a medication altogether rather than taking the drug at the wrong time or taking the wrong amount. Noncompliance is much more common in patients with depression and those with memory problems. There are many reasons for noncompliance. Often, patients believe treatment is no longer necessary once a problem has been corrected or when treating asymptomatic diseases, such as high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol or coronary artery disease. This is especially true if the medications have adverse side effects. I recently saw a patient who had a heart attack and was taking metoprolol, a beta blocker proven to reduce the risk of heart attack, and Vytorin, a combination of two cholesterol-lowering agents. While taking these two drugs, the patient felt lethargic and had decreased libido -- all well-recognized side effects of metoprolol. Rather than consulting his physician, he decided to discontinue both medications. While the side effects from metoprolol disappeared and he felt wonderful, discontinuing Vytorin led to a dangerously high cholesterol level and an unacceptable increased risk of a second heart attack. Had this patient spoken

to his physician, an alternate plan would have been possible. Some patients elect not to take medications because of potential side effects before even starting the therapy. Even worse, patients may abruptly stop treatment because a report appears in the media describing the drug to be either ineffective or dangerous. Every drug comes with side effects and even very rare complications are reported. Doubt and distrust can also be major factors for noncompliance. Patients who do not have a trusting relationship with their physician are much more likely to discontinue medications. Moreover, if patients question the treatment or doubt its effectiveness, they usually fail to adhere to the prescription guidelines, keep appointments or refill prescriptions. The financial burden of medications often influences a patient’s decision to stop using a drug or to take it less frequently. Toward the end of the year, many older patients on several expensive medications are forced to make tough financial choices when they reach the “doughnut hole,” or the point at which Medicare has paid out $2,500 and stops covering the cost of medication. The more medications taken, the more expensive the drugs, and the more complex the schedule (such as taking drugs three or four times daily) -- these all contribute significantly to noncompliance. Health care providers must play a more active role in assuring compliance, particularly the physician and the pharmacist. Patients must truly understand the critical reason and value of the treatment. And whenever possible, generic medications should be prescribed to minimize cost. Patient education on side effects

and what to expect taking specific medications should be a mandatory component of any medical exam or prescription. Since no physician can be fully aware of all the adverse effects of medications, it’s important that patients be empowered to research their medication and become knowledgeable about the drug. A good pharmacist is an excellent resource to educate patients on how to interpret the risk of developing a side effect. And a pharmacist can provide assurance that the benefits far outweigh the risks. In addition, pharmacists can offer a second line of defense to help patients who are at high risk of noncompliance. When necessary, any concerned health care provider should elicit the help of family members or friends in monitoring medication usage. Most importantly, patients and their families should never spontaneously discontinue treatment. Call your physician and discuss problems that could be ascribed to medications. If costs are a concern, let your physician know and try to develop an alternate plan that will be more easily followed. If you or someone you know is having concerns about treatment, consult your physician and rely on your team of providers. Making unilateral decisions about when to start and stop a drug can lead to disastrous consequences.

protection is early detection

TIMES STAFF REPORT An estimated 394 women in North Carolina were diagnosed with cervical cancer last year, and 124 died from the disease. January is Cervical Health Awareness month and the focus is on raising awareness of the importance of prevention and screening for cervical cancer. If it is detected early, cervical cancer is one of the most treatable cancers. According to Jen Hames, Health Education Supervisor at the Davidson County Health Department, “All women are at risk of developing cervical cancer. The risk increases with age. But, when found early, cervical cancer is one of the most treatable cancers. A woman can have cervical cancer and not know it.” A Pap test offers the best

opportunity to detect cervical cancer at an early stage, when successful treatment is likely. A Pap test is a quick and simple, generally painless test that identifies abnormal cell changes in and around the cervix that can develop into cancer. Regular Pap tests can detect these changes before they have a chance to turn into cervical cancer. Despite the success of Pap tests in detecting and preventing cervical cancer, not all women get Pap tests regularly. Low rates of screening and poor follow-up after an abnormal Pap test may contribute to increased rates of death from Cervical Cancer. It has been estimated that as many as 80% of deaths from cervical cancer could be prevented by regular screening and necessary treatment. To start the year right,

women are encouraged to schedule a Pap test to check for cervical cancer. The American Cancer Society recommends that women, who have been sexually active for at least 3 years or are over the age of 21, talk their health care provider about getting screened. Cervical Cancer is treatable, schedule your Pap test today. The Davidson County Health Department offers Pap tests through its Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Program (BCCCP). The program serves women ages 40-64 who are at or below 250% poverty level and who do not have Medicaid or Medicare. Call 242-2510 to see if you qualify.

Public Pulse is contributed by the Davidson County Health Department.

He has been in the Navy for four years, but this is his first deployment with the Carl Vinson. He had been stationed for two years with the ship in Newport News, Va., where he helped with renovations. Previously, Tres was stationed in Charleston, S.C. It was there that he met his wife, Kerry, and married her about two years ago. After living in Newport News, their new home port was set to be in San Diego, Calif.

Hunter said that the large ship carries about 3,200 people. Those people all share the same few computers, so Tres has very little time to send e-mails. He still makes an effort to keep in touch with his family, though. “He told us that he was excited about being a part of this humanitarian ef-

The couple came back to Thomasville to spend time with Tres’ family before moving to San Diego, and Kerry is staying with them while Tres is in Haiti. Kerry said she has grown very close to her in-laws. “I’m so thankful that I get to spend this time with them,� she said. “It’s very good support to have somebody to go through this with.�

DCCC Davie Campus to offer second couponing and money saving course TIMES STAFF REPORT

With many people struggling to make ends meet due to holiday bills pouring in, Davidson County Community College’s Davie Education Center will offer a free couponing class to help people shop smartly and use coupons to save substantial amounts on their grocery bills.

It will be offered at the Davie Education Center on Thursday, Jan. 28, from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. The center is located in Advance on 120 Kinderton Boulevard, Suite 110. The instructor is Carmen Palmer, a master couponer, who taught the first class.

summit. The cost included $600 for flowers, $22,000 for two speakers from Illinois and $8,000 for beverages and food. DavidsonWorks Board of Directors Chairman Steven Moore said that these grant funds could not be used for participant programs. The agency was given a budget for $37,000 for the summit, which is required by the U.S. Department of Labor. Borrell and Moore said that any money they did not spend would be lost in funding for the following year, which would mean the agency could help fewer people. Earlier during the meeting, commissioners heard success stories from people who had participated in DavidsonWorks programs, which helped train them for employment during the summer, prepared their students for college, helped them develop new skills after being laid off, offered training scholarships and awarded employee training grants.

William Friday and the class of ‘48 study group

No Obama obituaries, please BY JOE CONASON

VIEWPOINT

D.G. MARTIN N.C. Columnist About 65 years ago in the winter of 1946, a group of World War II veterans enrolled in the class of 1948 at UNC Law School and formed a study group that, some of us believe, had a important and positive influence on North Carolina’s history. One of the members of that group, former state senator John Jordan, explained some of that history the other day at a luncheon hosted by the North Carolina Bar Association. The Bar Association invited its Board of Governors and other leaders to honor former UNC President William Friday. These days most North Carolinians know President Friday not as the university president, but as host, since 1971, of UNC-TV’s interview program, “North Carolina People.” Every week Friday introduces us to prominent and interesting fellow citizens, most of whom we would otherwise never get to know. Even more important, Friday’s interviews and the way he conducts them makes his guests into our neighbors. His program builds on and maintains a sense of community that is one of North Carolina’s important strengths. It is a precious asset that is increasingly threatened by modern pressures that tend to drive us inward and away from connections to a statewide community. If there were nothing else on Friday’s list of contributions, this weekly gift would be enough. But there is so much more—too much to try to summarize here, including 30 years as a university president and another post retirement career as the leader of the Kenan Trust and William Rand Kenan Fund. What does all this have to do with the law school Class of 1948 Study Group? And what does it have to do with the Bar Association’s honor for Friday? Something very few North Carolinians know is that Wil-

liam Friday was a lawyer and that he was a member of that Class of 1948 Study Group. John Jordan explained that, although Friday had passed by a career in law, he used the skills of advocate and mediator over and over again to meet the challenges that faced the university. There were many, including several that could have ruined the University like the Speaker Ban Law, a season of scandal in collegiate athletics, and a battle with the Federal Government about the management of the desegregation of the University’s multiple campuses. Another thing that many North Carolinians do not know is that Friday could always call on members of the Study Group for help. Jordan and the late William Dees were long serving members of the University’s Board of Governors, and each served as Chair, standing by Friday in the toughest of times. Another member of the Study Group, William Aycock, taught law and, at Friday’s request, served as Chancellor of UNC-Chapel Hill during the tumultuous 1960s. Another member, Dickson Phillips, was dean of the UNC Law School before becoming a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals. Acknowledging the Bar Association’s honor, Friday explained how the members of the Study Group were part of the World War II generation that Tom Brokaw described as “The Greatest Generation.” “We grew up in the depression and after four years in the military, we knew we were the lucky ones that got to come home…and we just decided to contribute.” Then, Friday looked out over the group of lawyers and said that North Carolina lawyers, like the ones in his Study Group, were part of a profession with a long tradition. “There is an added ingredient. We must do something extra to leave this place a little better.” If more of us followed Friday’s admonition and the example of the Class of 1948 Study Group, North Carolina could look forward to another long season of progress. D.G. Martin is hosting his final season of UNC-TV’s North Carolina Bookwatch, which airs Sundays at 5 p.m. For more information or to view prior programs visit the webpage at www. unctv.org/ncbookwatch/. This Sunday’s (Jan. 31) guest is Todd Johnson ,author of “The Sweet By and By.”

Syndicated Columnist Having taken the oath of office just one year ago, Barack Obama is a flashing meteor that sputtered out too soon — or so the national media narrative tells us. According to this story line, the young president is a presumptuous liberal who disappointed his own idealistic followers while irritating everyone else. Media tipsters spoke of a “final judgment” in Massachusetts before the stunning returns came in — so we may soon hear declarations of a “failed presidency” from Washington’s pundit herd. Yes, after a run of extraordinary luck that helped get him into the White House, Obama today is confronting his share of electoral trouble. He may well encounter more and worse as November’s midterm approaches. But he and his critics should remember the last time a Democratic president had to listen to the drafting of his own political obituary. The premature farewells came early in Bill Clinton’s first term. During those exceptionally difficult years — including a historic midterm landslide that cost Democrats control of both houses of Congress — that young president heard members of his own party urging him to step aside rather than run again. Instead, he formulated the strategy and tactics that led to his decisive re-election; a smashing midterm victory in the midst of personal scandal; and a presidency that has come to be regarded by the American people as one of the most success-

ful in the postwar era. For the moment, Obama enjoys no such reputation. His own starry-eyed supporters, who believed his rhetoric of change, are disillusioned to discover that he is a politician, not a messiah. His opponents, who once pretended to share his bipartisan instincts, are delighted to obstruct his agenda, even though they have no solutions of their own. He seems to be locked in partisan stasus despite the great mandate he won in November 2008 and the overwhelming Democratic majority. The result is that too many Americans today believe that he has accomplished little and forfeited their trust. They happen to be wrong — just as they were wrong when they dismissed the Clinton presidency less than halfway into his first term. If scored strictly by his legislative attainments, Obama is a highly effective president. In fact, the scrupulously nonpartisan Congressional Quarterly rated him the most effective president of the past five decades, as measured by congressional votes on which he took a position, either yea or nay. When he enunciated a clear position in the House and Senate, his success rate was 96.7 percent — a number that surpassed the previous records held by Lyndon Baines Johnson and Dwight Eisenhower. If scored by his campaign promises, Obama also wins high marks. That judgment also comes from a respected nonpartisan source, the Pulitzer Prizewinning political website known as Politifact.com. Tracking in detail the

progress of 500 policy pledges made during the 2008 campaign, Politifact has assembled an “Obameter” that rates each promise as kept, broken, compromised or “in the works.” Their finding is that he has made good on 91 promises so far and broken only 14; 275 are in the works, meaning that he is seeking to fulfill them, and 87 are stalled, which indicates little progress. For a president who has yet to complete his first year, those are not only decent ratings but a strong indication of good faith. Still, the president’s approval ratings have fallen sharply, and his party seems headed for a midterm spanking. Those declines are partly cyclical and normal, and partly the fallout from economic and military conditions that he inherited after nearly a decade of Republican misrule. But they are also owed in part to his administration’s mistakes, in pursuing a stimulus program that was too small and scattered and a health care reform that is too compromised and timid. He also suffers the lagging effect of his legislative successes (including health care, if it finally passes in some form), which voters will not feel until many months from now. Yet, the Clinton experience tells us that it is far too soon to dismiss the Obama presidency — and that the loud stampede of the journalistic herd is almost always misleading.

To the editor

Some of your readers may have had trouble following the story about the public hearing on Project Combined (Board approves economic incentives,” 14 January 2010). It’s really very simple. The 13th paragraph began with the Davidson County Economic Development Commission executive director denying the allegation by me quoted in the 12th paragraph. The 14th paragraph ended with the Davidson County Economic Development Commission executive director conceding my point. Bill Clinton taught us the importance of understanding the meaning of the word “is.” Steve Googe has taught us the importance of understanding the meaning of the word “if.” Barney W. Hill Thomasville

Recently Pat Robertson made the claim that God brought this terrible earthquake on the nation of Haiti as a result of a pack they made with the Devil some years earlier. No doubt many evangelicals believe that God also responded this way to the sin city of New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina landed with such great destruction a few years ago. While we never doubt that God is displeased with sin, and that all sin will one day be judged, it is a very debatable whether God uses hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes or any other natural catastrophes to punish people and nations. The Bible tells us that God is very patient with us (Romans 15:5) and that it is not His desire that any of us should experi-

ence death unless we have repented and are ready for Heaven (2 Peter 3:9). So-what about hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, blizzards, or even auto accidents, cancers or other diseases? God has chosen to let us live in a dangerous world in order to keep our immortality before us. Just like no atheists die in fox holes, so when we all experience pain and suffering it is a constant reminder that we will not live forever but will be somewhere forever. It is a reminder that Someone exists besides us. Pain and suffering on earth is a reminder that knowing Christ is the most important thing in the world, and that one day every Christian will live forever in Heaven where pain and suffering will be gone forever.

Storm set to battle UNC JV BY ZACH KEPLEY

Sports Editor Not much is at stake Wednesday evening when the University of North Carolina junior varsity basketball team invades Brinkley Gym, but it is a game that both the Tar Heels and Davidson County Community College want to win badly. For UNC, Wednesday marks the only time this season they will play away from the Dean E. Smith Center, where they are currently undefeated. With only a handful of games remaining, an unblemished season is well within reach. As for DCCC, there is not quite as much on the line other than pride. For Storm head coach Matt Ridge, a win against his alma mater would be pretty satisfying, especially since he is currently 0-3 against them. It is rare for UNC to play away from home, but coach Jerod Haase asked around to see what would be a good place for his team to play. Responses he got turned to Brinkley Gym, home of the Storm. “Coach Haase wanted to take his team to a hostile environment,” Ridge said. “It is pretty exciting for them to go on the road because anywhere you walk in with

that Carolina blue on, most people get excited. Coach Haase told me this week over the phone that their players have been talking about this game for over a month. So we now they are going to be ready, and we have got to match their energy.” Davidson was up three with five minutes to play in an earlier meeting this season, only to have the Tar Heels come back for an 81-69 win. Phillip Williams (illness) and Kimani Hunt (injury) are two key contributors who missed the first meeting. DCCC will look just a little bit different to UNC. The Tar Heels also will look a bit different this time around, with D.J. Johnston out for the year according to Ridge. Johnston caused trouble all day long in the Nov. 15 matchup. There will be no secrets in the style of play UNC will bring into the game. A former UNC JV player himself, Ridge knows the system and runs a lot of what the Heels will run. “You are going to see two teams out there wanting to run, and two teams that are going to be mirror images of each other,” he said. Tickets for the game are sold out, but a few remain for the watch party.

Thomasville’s De Dow rises up towards the basket for a layup attempt against the Lexington Yellow Jackets last Friday night in a CCC tilt won by LHS.

Bulldogs fall in tight game BY ZACH KEPLEY Sports Editor Friday marked a special evening for Thomasville head coach Tony Clark, who was coaching his first game against his alma mater, the Lexington Yellow Jackets. It was a thrill he will never forget, but one that would have been much more memorable with a storybook ending. Thomasville pushed Lexington to the final seconds, but a win was not in the cards, as the Bulldogs dropped a 56-49 outcome to the league-leading Yellow Jackets. De Dow

scored 15 points to lead the Bulldogs, while Codie Boger netted 15 as well for the Yellow Jackets. The Bulldogs trailed by only two with two minutes remaining, but could not buy another basket down the stretch. Lexington faltered at the foul line, keeping a window of opportunity open, but turnovers and missed shots kept THS from making a final run. “We just could not pull it out tonight,” said Thomasville coach Tony Clark. “But to play a ball club like that and hold them to 56 points, I could

not be more proud. There is not ever a moral victory in losing, but we do know that we can play with the best in this league.” Points were hard to come by in the first half with the game remaining tied, 21-21 at the break. The lead would go back and forth for much of the final 16 minutes, with nine lead changes taking place. Isaiah Williams gave THS the edge to end the third with a driving basket in the lane, making it 40-39. Boger and Quandarius Crump scored the first

LEXINGTON — Davidson County Community College remained unbeaten in the Region X Tarheel Conference Saturday afternoon, edging the visiting Central Carolina Cougars 86-81 at Brinkley Gym. Davidson led by as much as 23 points in the second half, but a strong effort by Central Carolina and a lapse in focus by the Storm allowed the outcome to be much closer than it actually was. Ridge DCCC placed four players in double figures with Kimani Hunt setting the pace with 25 after a torrid first half. Rico Geter added 17, Justin Glover 16 and Phillip Williams had 11. Geter scored three of his on crucial free throws in the waning seconds, lifting the Storm to a 16-4 record overall, and 6-0 in conference. “That is probably the maddest I have been at my guys all year, but the last minute we were able to execute things,” said Storm coach Matt Ridge. “We got the ball to Roderick and made sure he was the one getting fouled.” Geter’s fastbreak layup with 6:52 to go gave DCCC its largest lead of 76-53, this coming on the tail end of a 12-3 run in a span of three minutes. But plenty of talent was playing on the other side, mainly the duo of Travis and Jerome Perkins. The two scored 55 of the Cougars’ points, hitting 23 of their 47 shots taken. Central Carolina went on a tear over the next five minutes, outscoring Davidson 19-2. That left what was a 23-point comfortable margin, now to an unstable six-point lead for the Storm as the clock ticked under 1:30. Hunt, who only scored seven of his points in the second half, came up with the big play DCCC desperately needed. His strong drive to the hoop resulted in a basket and a foul, as he would make the free throw to make it 81-72. Jerome Perkins swished in two 3s later for a five-point game with 15.5 seconds to go, but free throws by Geter iced it for the Storm. “The last five minutes were pathetic

NORTH CAROLINA DAVIDSON COUNTY EXECUTRIX’S NOTICE TO CREDITORS

Duke wins first ACC road game at Clemson BY BRYAN STRICKLAND Durham Herald Sun CLEMSON, S.C. — Over the first few minutes of the second half Saturday night at Littlejohn Coliseum, the Duke Blue Devils made it look easy. On a night when both defenses made almost everything difficult, that made all the difference. Duke opened the second half on a 20-7 tear to break away from a halftime tie, more than enough on a night when points were at a premium for a 60-47 victory over Clemson. The Blue Devils (16-3, 4-2 ACC) won their first road game of the season in four attempts, in the process sweeping the sea-

son series from Clemson (15-5, 3-3) and moving within one game of the ACC lead. Over the teams’ two meetings, Duke’s defense held Clemson to a total of 100 points. “It feels great to finally get our first road win of the season,” said Duke junior Nolan Smith, who scored 15 of his 22 points in the second half to help Duke avenge its 74-47 loss at Littlejohn a year ago. “To do it in this arena — where we were embarrassed last year — feels terrific.” After Duke scrapped together a total of 10 field goals in the first half, the Blue Devils converted nine field goals during a decisive eight-minute

stretch to start the second half. Smith finished what veterans Jon Scheyer and Kyle Singler had started, scoring the final seven points of the run and nine in all. Clemson, which committed 16 turnovers, coughed it up on its first two chances of the half, leading to a fastbreak follow slam for Miles Plumlee and a layup for Scheyer. After the Tigers finally got off a shot but missed, Scheyer drained a long two-pointer for Duke’s largest lead to that point at 29-23 to force a Tigers timeout. “We wanted to make sure we got consecutive stops once the second half started, and when we did,

we were able to score in transition,” said Duke senior Lance Thomas, who contributed a seasonhigh 13 points. “We let them know we were going to be playing defense the whole game. That was the message we were trying to get across.” Clemson’s timeout didn’t have much staying power. Trevor Booker, who paced Clemson with 22 points, scored down low out of the timeout and Andre Young drilled a 3-pointer, but then the Devils got right back to it. Duke thwarted potential momentum-building blocked shots on each of its next two possessions

four points of the final period that sent Lexington up by three. Dow then went back to his favorite spot on the court for the night just inside the 3-point line on the wing, popping two jumpshots to give THS the lead right back. The teams traded baskets leaving Thomasville up by one, but Wade Goff ’s 3-pointer with 4:17 to go gave Lexington a lead that would not be given back. It was a struggle for the Bulldogs to game’s end, as they could only get three more points despite having some good looks. Dow again stood in his spot for a jumper to make it a 51-49 game in favor of Lexington, but the final seven trips produced nothing. The Jackets kept it interesting leaving points on the line, but it was just not meant to be for the Bulldogs. “You know, we’ve hit road blocks all year long,” Clark said. “I challenged my guys to go to the hole a little bit more. Lexington closed off some of the lanes and the shots became tough sledding. You just have to take what happens.” Thomasville dropped to 2-2 in the Central Carolina Conference, but the heartache loss to an arch-rival could easily turn into something good for them looking forward. A loss is a loss, but the Bulldogs can take a lot from this game. “I am disappointed for our kids, but at the same time I am happy we were able to hang in there and play the heck out of them,” Clark said.

SPORTS ROAD From page 8 by completing the plays with 3-pointers — first Singler, then Smith — for a 35-28 lead. Young and Singler then traded buckets before Smith hit a nice floater along the baseline, followed up his own missed 3 and then scored in the lane to push the lead to 43-30 with 12 minutes left. Clemson did respond, scoring three times downcourt after scoring on a total of three over the first eight minutes to pull within 43-37, but Thomas answered with a layup and drew a foul for a three-point play. The Devils never were truly threatened again. “We were very poised,” Smith said. “When they made their runs in the second half and got it kind of close, we stayed poised and made the plays we had to make.” The halftime score of 23-all certainly didn’t indicate it, but the teams played at a breakneck pace from the opening tip — on the defensive end at least. Clemson’s fullcourt defense and Duke’s multiple traps in the halfcourt didn’t directly cause too many turnovers, but the aggressive approaches sped up the offenses. With both teams committing careless turnovers and open shots turning into rushed shots as a result, both teams turned the ball over 11 times in the first half and struggled to score.

STAYS From page 7 on both ends,” Ridge said. “Once we got that 23-point lead we just shut down and thought the game was over. Hopefully, that is a wakeup call to our guys.” The first half was all Storm, as Hunt had the hot hand in the early going. He scored 13 of the team’s first 22 points, with DCCC up 10. Hunt’s third 3-pointer of the half put the Storm up 36-22, then six more points went to the home team on an alley-OOP slam by Glover, a baseline jumper from Robbie Rives and sold post move off the glass by Bryan Roberts. Travis Perkins scored 19 of his points in the half, keeping the damage to a minimum with a halftime score of 49-34.

Notes: Central Carolina finished the game with four players after having only six on the roster ... DCCC welcomes the UNC junior varsity Wednesday at 7 p.m.

Booker was the only player on either side that elevated his offensive game above the defensive pressure, scoring 10 points on 5-of-7 shooting after totaling 10 points in Clemson’s loss at Duke earlier in the month. His teammates, however, didn’t come close to following suit, shooting a collective 3 of 15 in the first half. Singler, held silent for the first 15 minutes, threatened to get Duke’s offense going, scoring all five of his first-half
