Hanover County citizens joined millions of Americans in honoring their military veterans on Friday at a poignant ceremony held at the Hanover Veterans Memorial at Hanover Wayside Park. More than 200 people attended the annual event, a staple since the memorial opened four years ago. South Anna District supervisor and memorial co-founder John E. Gordon Jr. delivered the keynote address, recounting his Vietnam experience and the bonds he formed while fighting for his country in Southeast Asia.
Drafted as a young man, Gordon said he didn’t know what to expect when he got his induction notice or, as he described it, an “invitation from President Richard Nixon.” He said the following months transformed his life and formed friendships and bonds that are still fresh in his mind today, many years later. “This was an invitation delivered to a teenager to join with others in doing the work of a man,” Gordon, then only four months out of high school, said. “I was not ready That fear and apprehension subsidJim Ridolphi/The Local ed as Gordon completed basic training South Anna District supervisor John E. see VETERANS, pg. 31

Two Fort Lee Soldiers who had volunteered to find a lost autistic boy instead found themselves as first-responders to another searcher in distress. Pfc. Nicholas Cabral and Spc. Christian Shodahl, both assigned to the 54th Quartermaster Company, 530th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, 49th QM Group, joined a community effort in Hanover County’s North Anna Battlefield Park to locate 8-year-old Robert Wood Jr. on Oct. 26. During the search on Oct. 27, they responded to calls for help in a parking lot and aided a man who collapsed from an undisclosed condition. “We both proceeded to run over there,” said the 20-year-old Cabral, “and when we got to the scene, he was laying face down in the gravel. We rolled him over, and I checked his pulse.” Cabral said the man, who seemed to be in his “late 50s,” was semi-conscious and had a weak pulse. He immediately began cardiopulmonary resuscitation as Shodahl assisted. “I wanted to see if I could get his pulse back up until the EMTs arrived,” said the Cassville, Mo., native. Cabral estimated that he performed CPR for approximately five minutes before the EMTs arrived. The soldiers continued to help after the EMTs took over. No official reports on the man’s condition were available, but Cabral said he later got word the man is on his way to recovery. “He’s not out of the weather, but he was doing better and up and breathing,” he said. Lt. Col. Albert Tapp, the soldiers’ battalion commander, said they should be commended for their actions. “They went up there to help with a mission, and in the conduct of that mission, this unfortunate incident occurred,” he said. “And because of their training, they were able to react and respond. We’re very proud of them. They represented the 49th, Fort Lee and the Army well.” In retrospect, Cabral said he only gave a few

Spc. Christian Shodahl and Pfc. Nicholas Cabral, mortuary affairs specialists with the 54th Quartermaster Company at Fort Lee, helped a fellow searcher when the man collapsed due to an undisclosed condition on Oct. 27, during the search for an 8-year-old autistic boy who had wandered away from his family on Oct. 23 at Hanover County’s North Anna Battlefield Park.
seconds thought during the call for help about how to aid the victim. His subsequent actions once on the scene were due to his training as a soldier. “In basic training, we learned combat lifesaving,” Cabral said, “and we continue that throughout our careers. It’s a big help in learning the protocols of what to do.” Cabral said he and Shodahl did what many people would have done. “We did what I believe any other normal person or soldier would do for a fallen battle buddy or for any human being,” he said. Shodahl had similar sentiments. “It’s a really good feeling,” the 29-year-old Kentuckian said, “to make a contribution, to do your part to help.” That sense of humanity is what brought Cabral, Shodahl and about 15 other Fort Lee soldiers to the battlefield in the first place. They all volunteered their time to help search for Wood, who got lost Oct. 23 while hiking with family members in the confines of the park. He was found five days later about one mile from where he was last seen. “I’m actually really excited and ecstatic about that,” said Cabral, a husband and father see SOLDIERS, pg. 4

OPINION | The Local Views From the editor
How will results affect our county’s direction? Changes are coming to the Hanover County Board of Supervisors in the new year. That sums up the final outcome of the Nov. 8 General Election. We knew we would be getting two new supervisors when Bob Setliff, Chickahominy District, and Chuck McGhee, Henry District, announced they would not be seeking re-election. With Debbie Winans, Mechanicsville District, and John Gordon, South Anna District, being defeated, those two seats also will have two new faces helping guide our county. As we look to 2012, we will see the additions of Sean Davis, Henry; Angela Kelly-Wiecek, Chickahominy; Canova Peterson, Mechanicsville; and Wayne Hazzard, South Anna. What will these changes mean to us, the citizens? We certainly hope for a board that will work together for the benefit — and betterment — of the county as a whole. Understandably, supervisors should be loyal to the constituents in their particular district. But, overall, they have to work together as a team. Based on the conversations with the seven who will take office next year, here’s one Hanover County resident who is pretty confident we will see continued progress. And in no way is this to be construed as disparaging towards those who are leaving office. If there wasn’t a spirit of cooperation, we would not enjoy the successes we do here. So, thank you, to those who are serving and will continue to do so. To those who will be new to the office, we wish you well. Public service — while rewarding — isn’t easy. We do appreciate those who will become involved and tackle the task at hand. Do we face challenges? Of course. Economic conditions plague our nation as a whole — and Hanover County is not exempt from those woes. Strong leadership across the board is what it takes. We are fortunate that our county administration, led by Rhu Harris, and school district, with Jamelle Wilson at the helm, set the standard in Virginia. To those who won on Nov. 8, congratulations. To those who were not successful in their pursuit of public office, thank you for taking part in the process. Melody Kinser

Moreover, the cadets were enamored with Admiral and Mrs. Willard, who joined them for a group photograph. Each cadet was honored with Admiral Willard’s personal coin—another staunch military tradition. 80 marketing students from Lee-Davis participated in the DECA Marketing Day event in October at the State Fair of Virginia. Among the activities for students were a Scavenger Hunt, and a Team Decision Making Competition. Congratulations to General Marketing students Loren Beasley and Kensley Watkins, who placed second in their Marketing Communications Decision Making event.

really learn how to drive, or take a chill pill or something, and, by the way, acquire some patience. Ever heard that word? Any time I am sitting at an intersection with no stop light, I will not pull out into oncoming traffic until I know that it is safe, and I especially will not pull out into traffic if I cannot see what’s coming down the road. So, if you want me to move my car out of your way, especially in a dangerous situation, because you are in a hurry, then you better just get in the other lane and turn the opposite direction. I hope this letter will help others realize that those of us who prefer to drive a car rather than a van, SUV or truck, when we are stopped together at an intersection we cannot see the traffic coming from your side. Please be patient. It’s really not that hard especially when you could be the cause of someone losing their life. Betty Gray Mechanicsville
Need for school transportation The proposed Hanover County School Board budget goals for 2012-2013 include “Assure a responsive level of transportation services.� (Herald-Progress, Oct. 13, 2011). This point has a special meaning to me — as a parent of a child who has an intellectual disability — and to other parents who face the same challenges. Finding afterschool care for children of any age with severe, or even moderate, disabilities in Hanover County is very difficult. It is made more difficult because Hanover County Public Schools refuses to provide transportation beyond home or attending school zone for children who have disabilities. This
has been a problem for parents of children with severe disabilities for many years. Because of HCPS’ practice, parents have faced limited employment and loss of income, and students have experienced loss of instructional time and decreased options for the most suitable, safe and affordable afterschool care. Despite the economic times, lack of transportation that meets the needs of children with severe disabilities is a problem that needs to be taken seriously. Several neighboring localities provide this accommodation. Our children’s future depends on this, and parents’ ability to accept a job and then keep it full time also hinges on having afterschool care. Working is especially critical for these families because the kids often have higher than normal medical and childcare costs. My family and others look forward to the day when there is a responsive level of transportation for children with severe disabilities. John Hibbits Mechanicsville
Candidate: congrats, thanks Congratulations to Ed Via on a very successful campaign. I want to thank all the people who helped with my campaign. Thanks to those who donated and put my signs in their yards. The Government teachers at our high schools. The high school students who went door to door and helped out at the polls. The Hanover Democratic Party members who worked and contributed to my campaign. The Republican, Democratic and Independent voters who supported me on Election Day. The election officials did a great job. I met some wonderful peo-
ple going door to door. Many of them have become friends. I learned about a lot of new issues and concerns and realized there is a need for improvements in Hanover. I will still be active in the community just like before I started campaigning. Come by the Ashland Farmers’ Market and say hello. Improving the Strawberry Faire, making it bigger and better will be another project I’ll be working on. This will help our community, the town and the businesses in Ashland. Spending quality time with my family, playing music and working with the civic groups will keep me busy. I don’t expect I’ll run for supervisor again I know there are a few others in Hanover who would make excellent supervisors I’ll help them instead. One door for me has been closed but another one is open and I will walk through without any regrets. Thank you for a very eventful eight years in politics, Hanover County. Kevin Damian Mechanicsville
Recalling a sad anniversary November is here again. It teases us with its warm days and cool nights. The entire earth seems to be checked in the wonder of autumn colors. Certainly 73 years ago on Nov. 9, 1938, the world was clocked in the same autumn splendor as it is today. On that day autumn colors were insignificant to the inhumane murderous campaign that began on that fateful day in Poland. Nazi Germany began its brutal attack to rid the world of all Jews. Kristallmacht, “The Night of Broken Glass,� is the name given to this sorrow when the first Jews were deported to con-
centration death camps and synagogues were destroyed. To me, remembering this event is a special way to pay homage to those innocent victims who lost their lives simply because they were Jews not because they had done anything wrong. Ann Marie Rehmert Mechanicsville
Directing words to reader I welcome the freedom to express myself to anyone who reads this paper. However, I am directing my words to a special child of God whose name is Steve Sneed. You have obviously spent many hours submitting your thoughts for others to read because your opinions are extremely important to you. That choice speaks volumes to me, and you have definitely gotten my attention. I have been praying for you since I read your first article in this local newspaper. In fact, you must know that many Christians have been praying for you. None of us were given the option to select our earthly parents, but we do have a choice to accept or reject them as we get older. God is your heavenly father whether you believe it or not. God created you, and God loves you unconditionally! You, however, have free will to accept or reject Him as your heavenly father. This is my challenge to you: Tell me who created you and gave you the talents you possess. What is your goal in life? What, if anything, brings you joy and peace? Do you believe you have value on this earth? Do you know who loves you, depends on you, and needs your love? What or whom do you trust? My prayers for you have see LETTERS, pg. 15

CMS students need vote from public to win grant Some seventh and eighth grade students at Chickahominy Middle School have been mamed finalists in the World Series of Innovation, sponsored by Microsoft, for their concept EduHarmony, a website that matches student learning styles with tutor teaching styles. The middle school team is competing against two high school teams for top honors in the “College and Career Readiness” category. Popular vote is involved in the selection process for a winner. The group that receives the most votes between now and midnight on Nov. 18 will
win. According to the Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship, 18 teams of students are being given the opportunity to pitch their own innovative business ideas to the public online. Groups of at least five middle school students and their teachers or program leaders have chosen at least one of six innovation challenges. They have come up with a new, unique, innovative product or service to address that market niche. This year’s categories are: Mobile Game Design, Mobile App Design, Innovative Beverage, New Franchise Idea, Sustainable Style, and College
and Career Readiness Products or Services. With your vote, Chickahominy Middle School could win a classroom grant that will benefit students for several years. Sponsors also will provide other prizes to the winner. To support the local team, visit http://www.nfte.com/ world-series-of-innovation/ vote. People can vote once a day from as many different e-mail addresses as they have. Chickahominy Middle’s concept, EduHarmony.com, is in the “College and Career Readiness” category.

The staff of Boyle Dentistry said this year’s Halloween Candy Buy Back event was a success. Thanks to the generosity of local trick-or-treaters, the dental office bought more than 300 pounds of the children’s Halloween candy from them for $1 per pound. The candy — and 100 toothbrush kits donated by Oral B — will be shipped overseas to our troops through Operation Gratitude. Many children came in costume and had a great time making fall crafts and cards, which will accompany the candy and toothbrushes. This is the third year that Boyle Dentistry has participated in this nationwide service event. The photo above shows the staff, from left, front row, Dr. Kim Boyle and Dr. Jay Boyle; middle row, Christina Talley, Gracie Radigan, Aimee Kurdt and Kristen Fisher; and, back row, Sandra Withrow, Jamie Foster and Laura Cutright.

Social Services wins USDA gold award The Hanover Department of Social Services has become one of four organizations nationwide to receive the “Hunger Champion Gold Award” from the “Outreach Coalition, USDA, Food and Nutrition Service.” The award recognizes four years of outreach efforts that concentrated on getting the message out about healthy eating, healthy lifestyles and the availability of SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, formerly known as Food
Stamps). Participating with the department in these outreach efforts were a number of community partners, including the Health Department, the IRS, the Virginia Cooperative Extension Office and several churches. Initiatives included: ❍ Social Services and AmeriCorps staff developed Photo submitted by Tom Harris and implemented a child- Sheila Crossen-Powell, left, director of the Hanover County hood obesity prevention cam- Department of Social Services, and Deborah Winans, chairman see AWARD, pg. 18

we had were very minor.” Out of 68,922 registered voters, Smithson said 21, 949 cast their ballots last week. “We had about a 32 percent turnout and that was about the norm across the state,” she added. With 2,938 write-in votes being cast, she said counting and verifying them would be the biggest issue for her office. “It takes a while to verify each one and decide whether or not it will be counted,” Smithson said. “Some of them take some work to track down the person written in, and then again, there are a few throwaways. I don’t think Mickey Mouse or Superman really live in Hanover County.” “I think the next four years are going to be very exciting,” Peterson said, “and I’m pleased to be a member of the Board of Supervisors that will lead Hanover County. One issue I’m concerned with is creating jobs for our young people. We have 2,000 to 3,000 who graduate from high school and college each year and are looking for jobs. We need to find ways to create jobs for them so they can live and work in Hanover. I want the people in the Mechanicsville District, and the whole county, to know that I will always be available for them. On Tuesday, Nov. 29, I am having a community forum at the Mechanicsville Library from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. I want people to come out and talk with me about what they want and need and what the board can do to make Hanover County better.” On his victory, Davis said, “I am proud and honored and humbled to serve the people of Hanover County. I thank them every much for their vote of confidence. I look forward to the leadership opportunities as Hanover moves into the future. I am a strong supporter of everything Hanover County has to offer. I want the people of Hanover to know that I am a
voice for them. I am excited for speak for everyone. I’m open and accessible to everyone. I’m very grateful for the people for their vote of confidence and I look forward to all that we have here in Hanover, the best county in the nation.” Kelly-Wiecek said, “I am very grateful to the citizens of Chickahominy, not only for their confidence in me but for their energy and encouragement throughout this process. I’m very much looking forward to serving them and meeting their needs as citizens as well as our broader needs as one of Virginia’s premiere counties. I want to thank everyone who worked so hard these last nine months. And, of course, I want thank my husband and son for their unwavering support.” In returning to his seat, Wade said, “I’m honored to have been re-elected. I’ve been on the Board for 20 years and I received 200 more votes this time than I did in the previous election. I guess the people still like me and wanted me back. You have to work as a team if you want to get anything accomplished, and I believe this new board will come together and do just that.” As he prepares for his second term, Via said, he would “continue to work hard for the citizens of Hanover County and the Ashland District.” He said he will focus on: growth and economic development, “We will continue to attract green economic development,” public safety, noting the recent success of the Sheriff ’s Office in locating Robert Wood Jr.; schools, “In the past the board has fully funded the School Board and superintendent’s requested annual budgets to maintain our excellent, award-winning schools;” and town-county relations, “I have worked on close collaboration and cooperation between the town [Ashland] and the county.” He added, “Our citizens can be assured

Program participation in the SNAP program over the last four years has increased from 41 to 94 percent of projected eligible residents, and biannual customer surveys show a 92 percent satisfaction rate among recipients.

On Tuesday, Nov. 8, residents of Manorwood Drive in Kings Charter were surprised when a hot air balloon landed in front of Stacey Baumgardner’s home in the 9400 block. Her son Reed was celebrating his 10th birthday that day and, according to his mom, thought the balloon was a gift for him. Stacey said the hot air balloon hovered for some time before a decision was made to land in the street’s cul-de-sac. She also said there was not sufficient wind to transport the balloon to the Hanover County Airport, which is less than a mile away. The balloon, she added, “came down nice and smooth with an older couple and the balloon operator getting out with smiles.” Kids from the neighborhood ran out in their pajamas to watch the landing. They were then invited to help deflate the balloon and get into the basket, where they posed for photos. Stacey said they were told the landing was planned and no malfunctions or problems were involved. Shown in the gondola are: Caleb Goodman, Hannah Goodman, Caleb Seiders, Reed Baumgardner, Liam Baumgardner and John Brereton. All the children are students at Cool Spring Elementary School.

Specialty cupcake shop opens By Melody Kinser mkinser@mechlocal.com Using family recipes, a mother and daughter have opened Li’Mor Custom Cupcakes, a shop specializing in cupcakes, in Mechanicsville. Teresa Merie Birkeland, billed as the “Chief of Sweets,” has more than 60 years of experience in the gourmet culinary field. One of eight children of a master baker and professional chef, she was born in West Terre Haute, Ind. She was exposed to the business at an early age. Her parents, Paul C. and Edelle L. Jones Camp, opened their first bakery in 1948. Her dad sold a cow, a pig and some chickens his father had bequeathed to him as a down payment on that first business. BIRKELAND Her father was a baker and her mother was a chef and baker. “I am still using their recipes after 35 years,” Teresa said. She said she quickly absorbed the tricks of the trade, moving from country club kitchens to pastry shop showrooms to large event catering. She said she learned her trade “on the go” and
honed her skills by being creative if she encountered missing ingredients. The grandmother of seven said she has catered hundreds of weddings and parties. Teresa’s daughter, Lisa Dawn Birkeland Fishpaw, is known at the shop as “Queen of Sparkle.” The two have worked side-by-side throughout the years while Lisa has maintained a 25-year nursing career in the metro Richmond area. A fourth generation chef, Lisa is the marketing manager and serves as the central point of sales for Li’Mor. Teresa and Lisa have scheduled a grand opening for 11 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 19. The menu at Li’Mor includes: Almond, Apple Sauce Spice, Black Forest Chocolate, Blackberry Jam Cupcake, Butter Finger, FISHPAW Carrot Cake, Chocolate, Chocolate Fudge, Chocolate Hazelnut, Chocolate Moch, Chocolate Raspberry Truffle, Chocolate Macaroon, Chocolate Marble, Cinnamon Swirl, Coconut Cream, Cookies and Cream, Dulce de Leche, Fresh Apple, German see CUPCAKE, pg. 27

Loans available for producers CUPCAKE
Continued from pg. 24
By Ken Upshaw County executive director Marketing Assistance Loans (MAL) are available for producers who share in the risk of producing a crop. MAL is a marketing tool producers can utilize to generate needed cash flow until market conditions are favorable. To be eligible, a producer must maintain continual beneficial interest in the crop from harvest through the earlier of the date the loan is repaid or CCC takes title to the commodity. Once beneficial interest in a commodity is lost, the commodity is ineligible for loan — even if the producer regains beneficial interest.
strawberries, apples, blueberries, caneberries, cherries, Christmas trees, grapes, peaches and pears is Nov. 20, 2011. Eligible crops must be commercially produced agricultural commodity crops for which the catastrophic risk protection level of crop insurance is not available. At the time of application, producers must pay a service fee of $250 per crop or $750 per producer per administrative county, not to exceed a total of $1,875 for a producer with farming interest in multiple counties. NAP covers the amount of loss greater than 50 percent of the expected production based on the approved yield and reported acreage.
Emergency Conservation Program
Crop damage Producers enrolled in the 2011 Non-Insured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) must file form CCC-576, Notice of Loss, to report failed acreage and prevented planting and may be completed by any producer with an interest in the crop. Timely filing a Notice of Loss is required for all crops including grasses. For losses on crops covered by the Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) and crop insurance, producers must file a CCC-576 (Notice of Loss) in the FSA County Office within 15 days of the occurrence of the disaster or when losses become apparent.
2012 NAP signup
Signup for the Emergency Conservation Program (ECP) has been authorized to rehabilitate farmlands and conservation facilities damaged by Hurricane Irene. ECP provides cost share assistance up to 75 perccent to landowners and producers in Hanover County who incurred damage of such magnitude that it would be too costly for the applicant to rehabilitate without Federal assistance. ECP is not an “entitlement” program and each application will be reviewed to determine if the extent of the damage is severe enough to necessitate federal assistance. Limited resource producers may receive up to see LOANS, pg. 30

and advanced infantry school, and he noted a difference in his approach and attitude. “I no longer recognized what fear was. I was ready to serve.” Like many other inductees, Gordon found himself in Vietnam in the summer of 1970. “Over the next 12 months, I observed courage under fire. I observed patriotic pride in the sense of our resolve,” Gordon said. While some of the memories were, he said, thankfully forgotten, Gordon said many experiences would stay with him the rest of his life. The camaraderie of his fellow soldiers, the bravery and the dedication are memories that will last a lifetime. He recalled the friendships and lasting bonds he formed with his comrades. He said the soldiers with whom he served became his brothers in arms. “My life in the military taught me the value of true friendship, the value of trust,
the importance of loyalty and the true worth of all mankind,” Gordon said. Gordon was joined on the podium by master of ceremonies and memorial co-founder Jack Ward and Aubrey Stratton of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 9808. The local VFW group performed the honors with a 21-gun salute and the sounding of taps. There was a respectful silence as the parents of fallen soldier 1st Lt. Almar L. Fitzgerald, who was killed in action in Iraq in 2006, laid a memorial wreath in his honor. The parents were pleasantly surprised when their son’s roommate at The Citadel showed up to attend the ceremony and pay his respects to this fallen friend. Capt. Davis Gooding fought in Ramadi with Fitzgerald. Gooding said he would never forget his friend. “We went over together and were both in Ramadi,” he said. The captain said one of his men eventually killed the combatant who was responsible for Fitzgerald’s death.

Playoff bound! Confederates run into post season with win over Atlee By Charlie Leffler cleffler@mechlocal.com The Group AAA football playoffs begin this Friday night, but the Lee-Davis Confederates adopted a win or go home mentality a week early. Knowing they needed a victory over #8 Atlee (8-2) to earn a playoff berth, Lee-Davis (6-4) came out on fire, rolling to a 23-0 halftime lead then holding off a strong Raider comeback for a 30-20 win. “We pretty much had a gobig or go-home mentality,” said Lee-Davis senior quarterback Israel Vaughn. “We win we’re in the playoffs. We don’t, we’re not.” The Confederates last entered the post season in 1999 and the victory was made even sweeter with the ceremonies of Senior Night. “This being our senior year, you really want to be the first team in 12 years to make it to playoffs,” Vaughn said. Lee-Davis struggled early in the year and went into the final two weeks of the regular season sitting at 4-4. So, Head Coach Zac Hayden felt his C-feds needed to learn that in many ways football is no different than day to day living. “We just want to teach our kids that life’s ups and downs,”
Hayden said. “It’s how you respond to adversity. They did a good job with that tonight.” Atlee came into the contest with one of the most potent offenses in the Central Region but it was the big offensive plays by Lee-Davis that proved their undoing. The Confederates scored on touchdown passes of 26- and 84- yards as well as a 52yard touchdown run. At the same time, the LeeDavis defense held the Raiders in check for a majority of the game. “We knew what they were doing,” said wide receiver/cornerback Tyrell Eaton. “They were going to try every trick in the book. They were going to try to go to #83 (Will McCombs) on us. They were going to try to run it in the middle, trap their run, so we just executed and stopped it.” Atlee head coach Roscoe Johnson did not have to look far to diagnose why his team lost. “They played better than we did,” he said. “They came out ready to play, we weren’t.” Lee-Davis forced Atlee into a three-and-out on the game’s first possession then methodically worked the ball down the field on a 10-play, 72-yard scoring drive. Looking at fourth-andsix from the Atlee 26, Vaughn found senior wide receiver Jesse Smith on the right side from where he scampered in for the
score. A failed 2-point conversion left Lee-Davis with a 6-0 lead. The Atlee offense showed signs of life on the ensuing possession. The Raiders picked up three consecutive first downs on a one-yard run from Jarred Hall, a 14-yard pass from Ruben Rucker (20-of-28 for 218 yards) to Chad Jacobs and a 13-yard pass to McCombs (10 catches, 100 yards). Thirteen plays carried Atlee to the Lee-Davis 14-yard line. But when C-fed senior safety Stephen Weirup dropped Hall for a loss, Atlee was flagged for a dead ball personal foul which dropped them back to third-and-25. Penalties proved
a major setback for the Raiders throughout the night. In all, Atlee was flagged for 128 yards. Looking at fourth and 25 from the 30, Atlee turned the ball over on downs when kicker Joseph Pulisic was caught for a 6-yard loss after taking a pitch from Kenner Berry on a fake field goal attempt. Lee-Davis overcame adversity and upped their lead on their first possession of the second quarter. On the first play of the series, the Confederates picked up 12 yards on a pass from Vaughn to Photos by Skip Rowland Smith. But Vaughn was forced to fall on the ball for a 16-yard Top: Lee-Davis senior quarterback Israel Vaughn (3) takes loss on the next play when it advantage of a hole knocked open by Chris Croston (54) and see PLAYOFF, pg. 34 `

was snapped past him. Despite the setback, Vaughn kept his cool. “Composure is something I’ve always had to deal with,” Vaughn said. “My brother (Josh) always tells me, as the quarterback I’ve got to be the one that stays composed and stays calm. The team follows what I do so I can’t fall apart and I can’t get down and everything.” Vaughn, who finished the night 9-of-15 for 200 yards, two touchdowns and 42 yards rushing, feels his ability to stay calm has made him a completely different player than he was coming into the season. “It came from me, game one, being nervous, senior year,” he said. “Going into this season I just had all the pressure and stuff. Then my mom (Coleen) sat me down one day and said, ‘Remember how you felt freshman year? You’ve just got to go out there and play with the fire and the passion and the fun you had freshman year.’ Once I got that into my head I was just able to have fun and play the game I love.” There’s no doubt Vaughn was having fun on Friday night. Looking at second-and-25, Vaughn trimmed the distance significantly going to Chris Simpson for a 10-yard gain. Then on a third-and-15 play from his own 46, Vaughn made a pitch to Simpson on a flea-flicker and Simpson found Shane Reynolds deep for a 51-yard gain. A facemask penalty on Atlee gave the C-feds first and goal at the one and half from where Vaughn punched it in for a 13-0 lead. The Raiders ensuing drive was stopped when Weirup, who made tackles all over the field all night long, picked off a Rucker pass to give the ball back to LeeDavis. The Confederates crossed midfield but appeared to suffer a big loss when Eaton was

spun around and flung back by the Raider defense. But Eaton, who finished the night with 115 yards receiving, took the extra yardage to gain momentum, burst through the closing Atlee defenders to turn an 8-yard loss into an 11-yard gain. “Keep moving your legs,” Eaton said. “Never stop. Just keep going. That’s my motive.” “He’s got something that you can’t coach,” Hayden said. “He just wants to be good. He just wants to get it done. No matter the obstacle, he’s going to work and work and get it done.” Two plays later Vaughn found sophomore Austin Rice for a 20-yard gain to put LeeDavis at the Atlee 11. The Cfeds moved the ball to the three but were forced to settle on a Chris Minor 20-yard field goal for a 16-0 lead. On the ensuing possession, the Raiders were on the move again but their momentum faltered. Atlee picked up four first downs on six plays to reach the Lee-Davis 44. But a fumbled handoff resulted in a fiveyard loss then back-to-back in completions put them at fourth down. Pulisic’s 44-yard punt pinned Lee-Davis at the Atlee 6-yard line with 1:13 left in the half and it appeared Atlee would only have to battle back from 16 down in the second half. However, the C-feds got a bonus five yards on a Raider off-sides penalty then picked up a first down at the 21 with less than 40 seconds remaining. But instead of running out the clock, Vaughn found Eaton at the 40. The senior pulled in the pass, spun away from an Atlee defender and raced 79-yards for the score and a 23-0 lead heading into the locker room. “I think Tyrell Eaton is one of the best players in the Central Region,” Hayden said. “I don’t know if other people think that but I don’t care what they think. He can play.” The second half began with an offensive flurry of three

CENTRAL REGION PLAYOFF SCHEDULE Group AAA Division 5 Friday, Nov. 18 #4 seed Lee-Davis at #1 seed Atlee 7:30 p.m. #3 seed Dinwiddie at #2 seed Hanover 7:30 p.m. touchdowns scored in the first 2:11. The Raiders got an immediate spark when Simpson fumbled at the 27-yard line and linebacker Tye Burris scooped up the ball then ran it back to trim into the Lee-Davis lead, 23-7. It took the Confederates seconds to answer. On the first offensive play of the ensuing possession, junior running back Deshaun Rogers burst through a hole in the Raiders’ line and went 52-yards for a score to push the lead back to 23. Atlee had to work a little harder for their next score, which took six plays. With 9:49 remaining in the third, Rucker found Matt Combs on a 26-yard scoring strike to pull within 16; 30-14. Lee-Davis appeared as if they would return the margin to 23 on a 16-play drive that covered 73 yards and ate up seven and a half minutes of game time. Aided by 35 yards of Atlee penalties, the Confederates were looking at third and seven from their own 38 when Atlee was flagged for a 15-yard pass interference call. On the next play, the Raiders were flagged for a facemask and another 15 yards to put LeeDavis at the 33 yard line. The C-feds moved the ball to the 15 before they too were bitten by the penalty bug. At third-and-six play turned into third-and-11 from the 20 following a delay of game and they could not convert.
The Raiders took over at the 18 and put together their best drive of the game on a 16-play 82-yard scoring drive. But LeeDavis did not make it easy. A 10-yard keeper from Rucker moved Atlee to the 2yard line. Three consecutive runs by Hall netted only a single yard before Rucker punched the ball in on a fourth-and-goal play with 10:44 left in the game. A failed conversion kept the Cfed lead at 10; 30-20. The Lee-Davis defense remained strong over the remainder of the contest and forced Atlee to three-and-outs on their final two possessions. Though they did not score, the C-fed offense did their job by possessing the ball for nearly 10 minutes in the fourth quarter. For Atlee, the loss can be contributed to the early deficit. “They got 23 points on us and that’s hard to come back on,” Johnson said. “We came out in the second half, scored, they came right back and scored again. We had a huge deficit. “We just have to simply go back to the drawing board,” Johnson said. “We’ve got to play harder and come out. They spanked our butt tonight.” Cole Stout led the Atlee defense with 11 tackles and five assists. Jeremy Epps had eight tackles and an assist. For Lee-Davis, the win was a sign of how much the team has come together down the stretch. “This was the day we needed to come out and be strong,” Eaton said. “Be the team and execute. Go hard every play. Go hard as a team and be brothers. This was the day we had to go in and make it to the playoffs.” Atlee........................... 0 0 14 6 — 20 Lee-Davis................... 6 17 7 0 — 30 LD — Smith 26 pass from Vaughan (run failed) LD — Vaughan 1 run (Minor kick) LD — FG Minor 20 LD — Eaton 84 pass from Vaughan (Minor kick) A — Burris 27 fumble recovery (Bulisic kick) LD — Rogers 52 run (Minor kick) A — Combs 27 pass from Rucker (Bulisic kick) A — Rucker 1 run (run failed)
A banner year for football in Hanover County By Charlie Leffler cleffler@mechlocal.com This year the majority of the Central Region Division 5 race comes down to Hanover County. With Atlee, Lee-Davis, Hanover and Dinwiddie as the four teams to reach the playoffs, odds are in the favor of the state qualifier coming from the trio that are only separated by a few miles. Regardless how deep Atlee, Lee-Davis and Hanover go into the post season, they have already set a new standard for football. Never before has three Hanover County football teams made it into the playoffs in the same year. Though Hanover has been a mainstay among post season play, it has been over a decade since either Atlee (1998) or LeeDavis (1999) have continued on past the regular season schedule. Not only did the trio reach the playoffs but they did so completing in the toughest district in the Central Region. Atlee’s loss to Lee-Davis on Friday night turned into a huge gain for football in Hanover County. Lee-Davis earned the final playoff slot by knocking off the then seventh-ranked
Raiders. At the same time, Atlee maintained the #1 seed in Division 5 despite the loss. And what better way for the three teams to reach the playoffs, Hanover beat Lee-Davis, who beat Atlee, who beat Hanover. Likewise, each of the three overcame obstacles to reach the post season. Atlee came into the year with a group of nameless athletes and opened the eyes of the Central Region by putting up daunting offensive numbers and knocking off Hanover and Highland Springs. Hanover battled through the loss of Sam Rogers at quarterback to finish strong. In doing so the Hawks proved that they could actually be more dangerous with Andrew Knizner in the pocket and Rogers at wide receiver or running the ball. Lee-Davis shrugged off a slow start and doubts to start clicking when it counted most. It should come as no surprise that Lee-Davis reached the playoffs. Though they suffered four losses, every one came to a team that was ranked among the region’s top 10 all season; Hermitage, Varina, Hanover and Highland Springs.

Yellow Jackets show they’ve got ‘The Game’ Randolph-Macon downs rival Tigers 48-34 By Nathan Madden Media General News Services ASHLAND– Behind the explosive ground game of running backs Thaddeus Scruggs and Drake Sanders, RandolphMacon College beat Old Dominion Athletic Conference champion Hampden-Sydney 48-34 on Saturday to claim the 117th edition of The Game. Scruggs, a senior, had 16 carries for 130 yards and two touchdowns for the Yellow Jackets (8-2, 4-2), and he caught a 60-yard strike in the third quarter from freshman quarterback Zac Naccarato. Scruggs finished off the drive with a 13-yard run to give Randolph-Macon a 33-21 lead. “We just executed,” Scruggs said. “We’re not doing any special plays, we’re not doing anything spectacular. We’re just doing what we do.” Sanders, a junior who was Scruggs’ teammate at Massaponax High School in Fredericksburg, ran 21 times for 126 yards and a score. He also had a 72-yard scoring reception. “The offensive line has just done a great job of opening up holes for (Scruggs and Sanders),” Naccarato said. “Those guys are tough. They are always going hard every play.” Naccarato finished 13-of-19 for 266 yards and two scores. He added a 1-yard TD run. “I’m really proud of that kid,” said Yellow Jackets coach Pedro Aruzza. “To win eight games with a freshman quarterback, that’s an accomplishment. The credit goes to him and the guys around him.” Behind senior linebacker and former Matoaca stand-

out Jeremy Bowry (nine tackles, interception), the R-MC defense turned on the pressure early, stripping the ball from H-SC (8-2, 5-1) senior quarterback Travis Lane (32-of-62, 402 yards, two TDs) on the fourth play of the contest. “They had a good game plan and executed well,” said Lane, a Mills Godwin alumnus. “I give them credit.” The Yellow Jackets took control on the Tigers’ 22, where Naccarato handed off to Scruggs, who scrambled 22 yards for a 6-0 lead. R-MC went up 13-0 on a Vance Hendren (Powhatan) 2yard TD run with 6:18 remaining in the first quarter before HS-C started to hit its stride. On the ensuing drive, Lane connected with former Clover Hill standout Sean Cavanagh (8 receptions, 119 yards) on a 28yard TD pass to cut the Tigers’ deficit to six. H-SC forced a fumble on
R-MC’s next possession and cashed in with a 4-yard TD run from senior running back Kirk Rohle (Hanover) to give the Tigers their first of two shortlived leads. Despite the loss, H-SC’s season continues. The Tigers will travel to Centre College in Danville, KY this Saturday to open the Division III playoffs. “We’re playing with house money now,” said Tigers coach Marty Favret. “We’ll just go out there and give it the best we got.” For the Yellow Jackets, the victory was a hard-earned happy ending. “The dynamic on this team has been extremely positive,” Aruzza said. “Our kids have battled through a ton of things. I couldn’t be prouder as a coach.” Nathan Madden is a staff writer for the Richmond Times Dispatch. see GAME, pg. 36 `

Ex-UR coach Scott convicted of DWI Latrell Scott had led UR Spiders for one season By John O’Connor Media General News Services Former University of Richmond football coach Latrell Scott was found guilty of driving while intoxicated, his second offense within 5-10 years, on Thursday in Henrico County General District Court. Scott was sentenced to 12 months in the Henrico County Jail, with 11 months and 20 days suspended. Scott, 36, resigned from UR on Aug. 23. He was charged earlier that day. The Lee-Davis High graduate was convicted of DWI in 2004 while an assistant coach at VMI. His driver’s license was suspended on Thursday for three years. He is eligible for a restricted license after four months. Scott also was fined $500 and ordered to pay court costs of $281. Scott, who received the mandatory minimum sentence, declined to comment. He began serving his sentence Friday. Scott’s attorney, W. Joseph Owen III, said it is Scott’s goal

to return to coaching on the college level. “I was hoping we could work out something other than having to go the route we did, but we weren’t able to work that out, so we are where we are,” Owen said of the case’s outcome. “You think about it, here’s a guy who really did the right thing (in resigning from UR) for a group of people, for his players,” said Owen. “He didn’t fight. He just resigned, because he thought it was the right thing to do for his players. “Who knows what decision (UR) would have made? But he (resigned) before the school required anything of him.

Whether Scott continues in Casselton’s program “is really kind of a decision Latrell will be making,” Owen said. “I can see him continuing to work with Tom.” On Aug. 23, Scott was pulled over by state police on Interstate 64 in Henrico County at about 1:30 a.m., after a trooper noticed the vehicle operated by Scott traveling in the left lane at unusually slow speed, and veering onto the left shoulder and into the center lane. After administering field sobriety tests, the trooper arrested Scott, who was taken to Henrico County Jail and arraigned later that day. Scott was Division I’s youngest head coach (34) when hired by UR on Dec. 15, 2009. The Hampton University graduate worked on the Spiders staff 2005-07, and also was an assistant at Fork Union Military Academy, Western Carolina, VMI, Virginia and Tennessee.

kill and later scored a point that put her team ahead 18-17. She finished with 18 kills and five digs. It also took a couple of timeouts before Atlee coach Curtis Carpenter could get the opening set under control. “James River was the hot team in the tournament. They’ve been on a roll,” he said. “They were the underdogs, they probably felt like they had nothing to lose, and they wanted it at that time more than we did.” Atlee closed the first set on a ball that rattled around the James River defense before it was touched one too many times. The Raiders then turned the tables and kept the Rapids on their heels for much of the second set. “The first set, we were a little too relaxed,” said Atlee senior Katy Stiles. “We were probably a little too overconfident, but we realized it and picked it up.” Stiles had three digs and six
kills, including the final point of the night. “It definitely felt good,” she said of her game-winner. “I was a little nervous when I was up in the air, but I could just feel it and I knew it was going to be a good hit.” Junior Kayleigh Moody had a strong night serving for Atlee with five aces. She also had four kills. The junior tandem of Karlie Suber and Hailey Brooks had a big night for the Raiders. Suber finished with eight kills, five digs and 12 assists, and Brooks served up 26 assists, nine kills and five digs. “Suber had a good night, setting and hitting,” Carpenter said. “They started keying on her and that kind of opened it up for some of the other girls a little bit, which makes it nice because we are that balanced to where we can come around.” Senior Carol Pyszkowski had 10 kills, six blocks and five digs for the Rapids.

Raiders and Hawks fall in boys volleyball semifinals By George Templeton Media General News Services In Wednesday night’s second Central Region boys volleyball semifinal at Cosby, the margins were so close that small mental mistakes were magnified. Douglas Freeman took advantage of a few of them to oust Atlee in a five-game thriller and clinch a berth in Thursday’s region final as well as the state tournament. “We talked about it for a whole year,” Rebels coach David Calvert said. “We came up short in five games to Deep Run last year and then lost to Matoaca in a close one. I credit this group for coming together after losing two of our standout players.” After falling 25-18 in the first game, Atlee won the next two games with Matt Rohr hitting three perfect tip shots to
win the second game and Billy Dishman (10 digs, five kills, two blocks) coming up with a deft tip to swing the third game in the Raiders’ favor. “I felt like we were the better team coming in,” Atlee coach Nick Robinson said. “You don’t win close games with luck; you win them because you are the better team.” The fourth game was a seesaw battle with the Rebels jumping out to an 11-6 lead, but the Raiders clawed back to lead 20-17. Douglas Freeman surged back, and Jeremy Wilson came up with a kill to put the Rebels ahead 25-24. Atlee then committed its fourth rotation violation of the game, forcing a decisive fifth game. “It should’ve never gone five,” Robinson said. “We had a ref that was looking for it but you can’t
commit four violations like that.” Atlee took a 4-3 lead early in the final game, but Wilson came up to serve and keyed a 7-0 run by the Rebels. Chris Campfield (15 kills, two digs, two blocks) also had an important kill in that stretch. James River’s Sam Albus did about everything asked of him in the first semifinal, including kicking a ball to keep alive a point. The Central Region player of the year put together a superb effort with 13 kills, 11 digs, four blocks and four aces to lead the Rapids back to the state tournament with a 3-1 win over Hanover. After falling in the first two games, the Hawks trailed 18-14 in the third when Mike Rohr called a timeout. “I told them, ‘We’re seven points away from our season end-
kills, six digs and three aces. into next week.” Rapids senior Kari Nathan Madden is a staff Heavenrich dished out 36 assists to complement six digs, and writer for the Richmond Times junior McKenna Clark had five Dispatch.

ing. Do we want to go out fighting or do we want to lay down?’ We came out and fought.” Spurred by a big block and kill from Cameron Holl (four blocks, five kills) the Hawks stormed back to take a 23-21 lead. The Rapids tied the game, but Drew Hazelgrove recorded back-to-back kills (7 kills, 4 digs) to give Hanover the game and a lifeline. James River refocused in the fourth game and broke it open with a 10-1 run to put away Hanover to set up a match with the Rebels for the region title. George Templeton is a staff writer for the Richmond Times Dispatch.
Staff reports Last week, the Hanover girls volleyball team continued their post season run by defeating host Colonial Hieghts 3-2 in the Central Region tournament quarterfinals. The Hawks came up one game shy of a state tournament berth by falling to Central Region runner-up James River 3-0.

Yellow Jackets primed to defend ODAC title R-MC will look for leadership among returning talent By Charlie Leffler cleffler@mechlocal.com Following the graduation of D-III National Player of the Year Molly Arial at the end of the 2010 season, the RandolphMacon women’s basketball team expected to go through a period of rebuilding. Arial was such a dominating presence that the coaching staff and Yellow Jacket followers alike believed it would take some time for the team to be competitive last season. “Having lost Molly, everybody thought we needed somebody to replace her and as coach you think that,” said RMC head coach Carroll LaHaye, “especially if you’ve had four years of outstanding play from somebody like Molly.” Though the Yellow Jackets suffered from early
growing pains, they had peaked by season’s end. Playing their best basketball of the year, R-MC finished 23-7, claimed the Old Dominion Athletic Conference regular season and tournament titles then advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament. “I thought that we were beginning to reach our potential and we were continuing to get better every day and I think we were right there at the end,” LaHaye said. This year the Yellow Jackets return the solid nucleolus of talent that led to last year’s success. Along with talented fresh-

men, R-MC hopes to exceed last season’s accomplishments. However, LaHaye feels it is not necessarily guaranteed that the momentum will carry over into this year. “The dynamics of a team changes when you lose somebody or add somebody and we’ve got three outstanding freshmen that we’re very excited about and we believe can contribute right away,” she said. “They dynamics of this team are a little bit different but I think the experience from the upper classmen will transfer into early success.” Therefore LaHaye’s objective is to utilize lessons the team learned late last season. “Our goal this year is to really go into each and every game and have no regrets,” she said. “I think last year at the beginning of the year, we knew we had the potential but we didn’t show
up for every single game and I think once we decided as at team that what we needed to do each and every day- We went through the whole month of January undefeated and then continued to work every day on getting better.” R-MC lost starters Katie Williams and Jennifer O’Briant to graduation and sub Jordan Cantrell to transfer. Neither Williams nor O’Briant were
major contributors in statistical categories and R-MC has talent that will step up to replace their point production, rebounding and defense. But LaHaye feels it will take much longer to replace the leadership that the pair brought to the floor. “Jen and Katie were both what I refer to as stabilizers,” LaHaye said. “They needed to be on the court for what they brought to the team. “Were they outstanding scorers, rebounders or anything like that? Did they play super defense?” LaHaye said. “They were consistent in their performances but they weren’t the standouts.
What they did stand out in was their leadership and their stability. It’s what held us together really. That’s something that doesn’t come easily on every team but it’s a necessary factor for success.” This season, the coach will look to a trio of captains to fill the leadership void; senior Jillian Asay, junior Madison Dunlevy and sophomore Lindsey Sharman. “I think those three people, three classes even, just bring a different perspective in the overall team concept,” LaHaye said. Back are seniors Maggie Roy, Taylor Wieczorek, Molly Brown and Asay. Also returning is Dulaney, a junior, as well as see JACKETS, pg. 39 `

sophomores Christina Phelps, Paige Mills and Sharman. Other than the sophomores every returnee averaged 18 or more minutes a game last season. Wieczorek, Brown, Sharman and Paige will work the post for the Yellow Jackets this season. Last year Wieczorek stepped into Arial’s shoes and took off running. The 5-11 center shot a team best 46.3 percent from the floor, was second in scoring at 11.8 ppg and led the team with nine rebounds a game and 24 blocks on the season. As a freshman center, the 6-2 Sharman nearly matched Wiezcorek’s offensive numbers, shooting 45.7 percent from the floor. Mills will also see time in the post again this season. “We’re really excited about that position,” LaHaye said pointing out that all of her centers are very mobile. “Taylor has worked really hard in the off season to get stronger and more consistent. She’s really added a couple of different things to her game; Putting the ball on the floor, increasing her range a little bit. Lindsey worked really hard on agility and some quickness activities this summer and that has paid off.” Versatility will be the key at forward in three players that
can take on the three or the four slot with Brown, Phelps and Asay. Brown came into her own as the season wound down last year averaging 8.6 ppg, 4 rpg and shot 30.3 percent from 3-point range. “Molly (Brown) certainly propelled us into advancing each day,” LaHaye said. “Her shooting, her defense, just her overall game from end line to end line really improved. I think that ignited her teammates into wanting to do as well as she was doing.” Phelps was simply tenacious and displayed great athletic ability as a freshman that shot 45.7 percent from the floor had 24 steals and 14 blocks last season. She will spend most of her time at the four this year. “I think she does more damage at the four position than at the three,” LaHaye said. Asay is looking to take her game to another level this season. “She’s got great range,” LaHaye said. “She’s worked on her shot. She’s really come on strong. She wants to be a significant scorer for us this year.” LaHaye also like the shooting range of 6-0 freshman Caroline Young. “She can put the ball in the basket,” the coach said. “She’s got great length. She’s really long and quick and finds a way to score.” Roy will lead the way at

shooting guard. Last season she led the team in scoring at 13.8 ppg, was second in steals (52) and third in blocks (19). Freshman Sarah Parsons, a 5-4 guard that graduated as the All-Time leading scorer at J.R. Tucker, also looks to play a substantial role at guard. R-MC assistant coach Jay Starke has already tabbed her ‘Jet’. “She brings a lot of speed for us on the parameter and in the back court,” LaHaye said. Freshman Kellie Cortina will also see plenty of time on the floor as the off-guard. “She’s a great catch-and-shoot player and does what she’s supposed to do,” LaHaye said. “She’s not flashy or anything like that on the defensive end or the offensive end. She does what she’s supposed to do and is quite consistent.” After sitting out the end of last season due to injury, Dulaney returns to run the point. “She’s had surgery on those feet and seems to be quite strong and ready to go,” LaHaye said. In a vote of league coaches, Randolph-Macon was named the preseason favorite to repeat as ODAC champions. They were followed by Guilford, Bridgewater, Washington and Lee, Eastern Mennonite, Roanoke, Virginia Wesleyan, Lynchburg, Hollins, Emory &
Henry and Randolph. The Yellow Jackets start the regular season on Tuesday night as a host to Marymount, VA then move on to the Tip-Off Classic on Friday and Saturday. On Friday, R-MC hosts CNU, a Final Four team last season that ended the year ranked #3 in the nation. They then host Mary Washington on Saturday afternoon.
