The school board considered options that included initiating a formal search to find a replacement, appointing an interim superintendent or exploring other options.

A special meeting was held last Wednesday to discuss those options and take the first steps to begin the process.

“The plan today is to discuss the format of our process

and as much as we can discuss format and structure and ideas about that,” chairman Bob Hundley said on June 3.

Members unanimously approved a motion to issue an RFP (request for proposal) requesting bids from search firms that specialize in superintendent searches.

The funds from the dinner have paid for all of the props and amenities for this year’s recital. Remaining funds will go back into the program to provide scholarships, improved equipment and needs for their upcoming summer camps and fall season.

Organization founder Kim Moncrief said, “We are so pleased to be able to hold a recital for the second year in a row. We are even more grateful that this event is graciously being sponsored by the Hanover Choral Boosters. This is a great opportunity for our dancers to shine and show what they have been working on all year. They are truly breaking boundaries!”

MIM is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that offers hope to families of children with disabilities and serious health issues, as well as offering adults, teens and pre-teens a chance to volunteer.

Moncrief said, “Our mission is to provide quality dance instruction to people with special needs while promoting awareness in the community through the joy of dancing!”

had done adjunct work there at the University of Richmond.

I had no inkling or idea that I might even consider applying for the job, but the opportunity presented itself for me to consider.”

She said she found the position “appealing” and talked with her husband James. They agreed that she should “see what happens and this is what happened.” They will remain Hanover County residents.

Their two sons are students in the county school district.

Wilson is modest in talking about her role leading a school system that is envied across the commonwealth. “I think my success has been maintaining our focus on student learning and achievement. When I came into the superintendency (in 2011), we were still in the recession and coming out very, very slowly on a somewhat upward trend. It would have

been very easy for the county school staff to lose sight of what we do.”

She again turns to the philosophy of focusing on learning and student achievement.

“Over the four-year period [she has been at the helm], what I’m most proud of is our sustained focus on what’s important. Our students continue to learn, achieve great things, and the

“The education that I have received from Hanover County Public Schools will be instrumental as I continue my studies at Virginia Tech and pursue a career in pharmacy,” she added.

Verham’s parents are Kelly and Cheryl Verham of Mechanicsville.

He was drum major and brass captain of the HHS Marching Band. He chaired the Speakers Committee of the National Honor Society.

Verham was a member of the

Beta Club, Tri-M, Jazz Ensemble, Wind Ensemble, Model UN and Show Choir Band.

His community involvements include Tenderfoot, Youth Praise Band, New Highland Baptist Church and New Highland Youth Ministry.

Verham will be studying Engineering at the University of Virginia.

“I have truly enjoyed my time at Hanover High School,” he said. “I am going to miss a lot about Mechanicsville,

including my family, friends and teachers. The work ethic and skills I have learned are invaluable as I go on to my future at the University of Virginia.”

“My experience as a member of the Hanover [High School] Band has given me memories I will always treasure,” Verham said. “I am very excited for my future as I go on to explore engineering and continue my education and am excited to see where it takes me.”

Rives said that process could take up to six weeks, but would supply the board with a list of search firms and what they would cost.

While it seems likely an interim superintendent will be selected, no action was taken regarding that process.

The board entered closed session to discuss the possibility of an interim appointment but no decision was reached.

Members will meet again next week and could announce a temporary replacement at that time.

Some seemed inclined to keep the process internal, but Rives said any arbitrary process could be challenged if EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity) rules are not followed.

Board member Sue Dibble said she would prefer to gather

public input before making s decision on an interim selection.

“Before we decide on the process, I’d like to have input

from the public,” Dibble said.

“That’s the first step, because I’m sure they have some ideas and I want them included in the process from day one.”

Dibble said public com-

ment could address both the process and the qualification wish list.

Once all those bids are submitted, board members could select a search firm or take no action and proceed internally.

The Virginia School Board Association offers search services for its members. Costs for a VSBA search are around $15,000, while private firms generally charge more.

“I think the idea of community involvement is a good one, but it has to be managed in a way that is effective and helps you to get to the goal of making a decision,” Rives said.

“The Virginia School Board Association has experience in helping localities through that process, and that might be something you might consider short of hiring an expensive consultant,” Rives said.

OPINION | The Local Views From the editor

Graduates embark on life’s new adventures There’s an excitement this week that has enveloped many teens throughout our county. They are preparing to receive their diplomas from Hanover County Public Schools. And so the journey begins.

Memories of the high school years still bring back lots of smiles — even after four decades.

For friends’ younger siblings and then later their children, the advice for their high school experience was always the same: Prepare for college or whatever chosen career path and have a good time.

Over the course of the last four weeks we have spotlighted on our front page the top students in the county school system’s four high schools. Bravo!

Well done! Congratulations! Their stories are impressive and we thank them for sharing. These scholars are shining examples of why Hanover County Public Schools is envied for being a superstar in the world of education.

Ah, graduation day. It’s kind of like a roller coaster of emotions — happy, sad, relieved, anxious, enthusiastic, apprehensive. You get the idea.

Nonetheless, it’s a day you don’t forget.

The week of graduation certainly had its ups and downs as my maternal grandfather passed away and flooding delayed the big day. Despite the pain of loss my family was enduring, everyone, especially my parents, provided support and celebrated the culmination of 12 years of public school. And as torrential rains put my class’ graduation on hold for a day, we somehow managed through the mixture of sorrow and excitement.

As Hanover County’s Class of 2015 readies for Saturday’s commencement exercises, we say, “Best wishes in your future endeavors.” There are so many opportunities waiting for that next step. Be proud. Be strong. Be confident. The challenges can be met with determination.

Reminder: The schedule for Saturday at VCU’s Siegel Center is 8:30 a.m.

Patrick Henry High School; 12 p.m. Atlee High School; 3:30 p.m. Lee-Davis High School; and 7 p.m. Hanover High School.

We also extend our congratulations to the graduates in private schools and those who have been homeschooled. May your futures be bright and successful.

Some advice for the graduates

By Jim Ridolphi Contributing Columnist When I graduated from high school decades ago, my head was filled with advice, most of it timely and pertinent, but, admittedly, long forgotten. As I walked through a room of family members and friends shortly after the ceremony, an old friend of the family tapped me on the shoulder and whispered his version of graduation words to live by.

“Hey, kid, don’t take no wooden nickels,” he said with a gritty smile on his face. It’s odd that I remember those words of wisdom today, and most of the important life advice I received seems to elude me. Looking back, I’m sure the misplaced words of encouragement were well focused,

and, if followed, would have made life easier at some points.

But advice is a double-edged sword, and, if you decide not to take it, you usually find out the same lesson for yourself. Some of us take the advice and find a need to challenge its validity. That’s all part of the process.

Even at this late stage in my life, now the father of four children, I am reluctant to offer any advice to this year’s Class of 2015, but I am resourceful enough to call on the wisdom of others to provide some sound, and sometimes humorous, graduation thoughts. Here are just a few I came up with: A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identi-

cal caps and gowns that “individuality” is the key to success. ~ Robert Orben Your families are extremely proud of you. You can’t imagine the sense of relief they are experiencing. This would be a most opportune time to ask for money. ~ Gary Bolding At commencement you wear your square-shaped mortarboards. My hope is that from time to time you will let your minds be bold, and wear sombreros. ~ Paul Freund The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet. ~ Aristotle The future lies before you like a field of driven snow, Be careful how you tread it, for every step will show. ~ Author Unknown Do not follow where the path may see ADVICE, pg. 8

LETTERS | Reader Views

The police and law enforcement The best men and women that I have had a 20-year work experience with were those in the law enforcement profession across the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Yes, there are some negative employees in every profession, but 98 percent of the people in law enforcement that I worked with were the best at their profession.

No prosecutor in the Commonwealth of Virginia could maintain a civil society without the professional work of those men and women who put their lives on the line daily to get proper legal or justifiable evidence for the cases that are to be tried by the justices of the courts within the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Generalization has always been an unfair judgment of any person, group or profession.

Always judge the facts and merits of any issue before runaway emotions get caught up with hidden agendas.

Respect for all human life is priceless and it is always sad for anyone or their families when someone loses their life or someone takes a life.

The American Justice System has come a long way to become a model for the world today.

At one time, people had to march and even lost their lives because the system was not fair to all American citi-

zens. However, many U.S. Supreme Court rulings came out of those efforts that eventually became landmark decisions that led to a more equal system over the years.

Yes, there is always room for improvement to make the system better for all Americans and citizens of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

I will always stand with the men and women of the law enforcement community who are attempting to seek justice and perform their jobs in a fair and impartial manner.

staff advances in professional knowledge and skills. I’m very proud that in four years’ time we have not lost that; it’s that thing that makes us Hanover County Public Schools.”

Wilson came to HCPS 23 years ago, so leaving is with mixed emotions. “It’s bittersweet,” she said. She acknowledged the growth she experienced thanks to the leadership of past superintendents. She said she will be “using that to help me grow. Beyond that, I’m excited about that opportunity.”

She doesn’t place herself in the spotlight, preferring to recognize the work of the teachers.

“The skill set that teachers have is so important and broad. It translates to every facet of life, every facet of any profession.

The skill set that I have learned as a classroom teacher, administrator and superintendent are all transferrable to this new role at the University of Richmond.

I didn’t hone those skills with the intent to move them over to another area.”

Wilson sees the University of Richmond opportunity also as one that will enable her to return to the classroom. “I’m hoping to teach a class. I may be able to cross over.” She said the university has a School of Business, School of Law, School of Arts and Sciences, School of Leadership and the School of Professional and Continuing studies. “In my role I’m looking forward to that. I love to teach because I’m a teacher at heart.”

As for leaving the public school system, Wilson said, “I’m not worried about it moving forward because it’s not about me. I’ve had the good fortune to lead the school division the last four years, and the momentum will keep going.

I don’t have any concerns or reservations about that.”

When asked about challenges, she said, “There’s always a level of uncertainty. Change just naturally churns up in some

people.” She talks confidently about “maintaining our focus and we have great momentum.

We have great focus in terms of providing students the opportunities that they deserve and the resources that they need in order to achieve. I don’t have any reservations about that.”

“Our community is involved and I think as the [Hanover County] school board considers the next superintendent there may be some value in making sure that the community has an opportunity to provide input.”

While Wilson said the superintendent is the administrative leader of the school division, she said that he or she also represents the school division locally, as well as on a state and national level.

“I expect the community would want to have some input as to what kind of person they would want representing them in their schools.”

We would like to thank the people of Mechanicsville for their generosity and the Kroger managers for allowing us the opportunity to distribute the poppies in front of their stores.

Please know that 100 percent of the monies donated will go directly to assist veterans and their immediate families.

Schools: full speed ahead I know that many are reeling from the announcement

by Dr. Jamelle Wilson that she will become the new dean of Professional and Continuing Studies at the University of Richmond. I know that there are those that will ask “What are we going to do?” Well, take heart.

Seeing the devotion that our teachers, administrative staff, students, parents and citizens of Hanover County have in providing the very best educational system, fear not.

I once called Dr. Wilson Admiral Wilson because “As

tion. We will miss Dr. Wilson but we wish her all the best in her new position at the University of Richmond.

Dr. Wilson has served Hanover County with distinction and has worked tirelessly for over two decades in support of Hanover’s children. In particular, since July of 2011, Dr. Wilson led our school system through times of decreasing revenues and resources.

During her tenure, funding to HCPS was cut significantly, forcing a reduction in the number of teachers among other losses. Even so, under her leadership, all Hanover County Public Schools were accredited by the Commonwealth of Virginia.

We are proud that Dr. Wilson recently was recognized as the Virginia Region 1 Superintendent of the Year, as one of Dominion’s 2015 Strong

Men & Women in Virginia History, and for receiving the Richmond YWCA’s 2014 Outstanding Woman in Education Award.

Dr. Wilson has assured us that her decision to accept the position of dean of the School of Professional and Continuing Studies was made solely “with an eye toward the once in a lifetime opportunity it is.”

Even so, FOHS remains concerned about educator attrition in our schools and we believe that Dr. Wilson’s resignation is emblematic of this undeniable trend.

Dr. Wilson is one of the most highly respected and accomplished educational leaders in Virginia. We are troubled that despite her obvious dedication and commitment to Hanover that the county couldn’t manage to retain her.

We are further concerned

about the diminishing number of people of color and women in prominent leadership roles in Hanover County. As long as our current Hanover County Board of Supervisors continues to shortchange our schools and attempts to micromanage our educational professionals, we will continue to lose experienced and highly qualified educators.

During this transition, we are asking the board of supervisors to maintain experience and stability on the Hanover County School Board.

Furthermore, we are asking that the board of supervisors change course and show support for public education and that they shift from a mindset of scarcity to one of sufficiency. So many people move to Hanover for its excellent public schools — the schools once

‘Spirit of Volunteerism’ event celebrates county’s best MECHANICSVILLE — Every year, Hanover County recognizes a number of its most outstanding volunteers at its “Spirit of Volunteerism” celebration. The 2015 celebration was held on May 12 at Hanover High School.

Volunteers were judged in the following categories:

“Spirit of Youth;” “Spirit of Dedication;” “Spirit of Family;” “Spirit of Team;” “Spirit of One;” and “Spirit of Inspiration.” A “Commitment to Community” award honoring a Hanover business that exemplifies strong community values and a sustained commitment to supporting the com-

munity also was presented.

Judges selected the following volunteers for a 2015 “Spirit of Volunteerism” award: Winston Smith won the “Spirit of Youth” award. During the past two years, Smith has volunteered with organizations such as “Stop Hunger Now,” the Hanover Youth Service

Council, the Youth Planning Coalition, the Global Youth Service Day Leadership Corps and CARITAS. Her GYSD project in 2014 raised money to buy filters for people in Third World countries who do not have access to clean water.

One filter provides water for 100 people a day for 10 years;

her project purchased 12 water filters. Category sponsor The Optimist’s Club, represented

by Ed Cooper, presented a $250 check to “Stop Hunger Now.” Charles “Charlie” Rasnick received the “Spirit of Dedication” award – given to a volunteer aged 60 or

older. After retiring from the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT), Rasnick started volunteering at Mechanicsville Christian Emergency Functions (MCEF) as a pantry volunteer. He spearheaded the development and implementation see SPIRIT, pg. 17

Council weighs in on budget before final vote

By Meredith Rigsby mrigsby@mechlocal.com ASHLAND – Ashland Town Council reviewed the major sticking points of the proposed Fiscal Year 2016 budget during the June 2 meeting in preparation for a definitive vote scheduled for June 16.

The FY 2016 proposed budget was presented

by Charles Hartgrove, Ashland town manager.

The budget represents a 2.8 percent increase over the amended FY 2015 budget and relies

on an $805,502 transfer from the General Reserve Fund to balance it, he said.

However, when it was time for council comment, council member Steve Trivett said he has some concerns.

“When you read through just the very beginning of the budget presentation … there’s a sentence, ‘It should be noted that additional revenues will

HARTGROVE

be required in future years if town council expects to continue to offer the same level of services,’” he said.

“It doesn’t talk about how far off that future is.”

He also said there is another statement he has an issue with on the Summary page. “Even with the guidance provided by town council through various work sessions throughout the year, the cost of oper-

ations, as well as the many valuable capital projects council would like completed, continue to outpace available revenues.”

“When I read those two sentences together, and I look at our general fund and the projected amount in the fund balance a year from now, we’re going to be about, this is projected, but about $1 million less than what we were at the end of June 2014,” Trivett said. “At times it may see BUDGET, pg. 19

of the Hanover Senior Rides Program in Mechanicsville, which began services in 2013.

The service provides muchneeded transportation to older adults and persons with disabilities. He has successfully worked to facilitate expansion of the program in cooperation with ACES (Ashland Christian Emergency Services) and WHEAT (Western Hanover Emergency Action Team) to provide services in the Ashland area and the program will soon be expanded to include western Hanover as well. The category’s sponsor, Covenant Woods represented

by Elizabeth Pace, made a $250 contribution to the Hanover Senior Rides program.

The Stuckey family received the “Spirit of Family” award. Carolee Stuckey and her husband Steve, their children Amanda, Phillip and Robert, and Steve Stuckey’s parents serve as volunteers distributing food at the MCEF food pantry. Carolee Stuckey is responsible for the overall operation of maintaining and supplying non-perishable food items to the pantry. The

Stuckey family devotes 15 to 20 hours each week, serving clients, procuring food, stocking shelves, and educating clients and families about healthy food choices. The pantry now serves about 225 families a month on average.

The three generations of the Stuckey family have directly or indirectly impacted countless members of the community over the 10 years of volunteering at the MCEF pantry. The category’s sponsor, Ashland Walmart, made a $250 contribution to MCEF. CJ’s Thumbs Up Foundation won the “Spirit of Team” award. CJ’s Thumbs Up Foundation is a nonprofit organization that extends aid and assistance to the families and caregivers of children with chronic and life threatening illnesses. With the help of volunteers, it provides extra hands, legwork and financial assistance with day-to-day needs as families navigate the exhausting demands of medical treatments. This organization was created by two parents who lost their child to cancer. With two part-time staff and various volunteers, it has provided funds, arranged and provided meals, and gone the extra mile

to resolve diverse challenges faced by families with seriously ill children. The Hanover-based volunteer group is expanding its service area to benefit our larger region. The category’s sponsor, Danny Redford of Battlefield Press, made a $250 contribution to CJ’s Thumbs Up Foundation.

There were two “Spirit of One” winners, Rosanne Shalf and David Lee Stewart.

Rosanne has been a member of the Ashland community for over 40 years and wrote the definitive history of the town in her book “Ashland, Ashland.” Through her dedication she gained support to create the Ashland Museum.

Beginning in January 2009 as a virtual museum via a website, the museum has had a physical home since 2012. Shalf has been responsible for the preservation of Ashland’s history, creating a site for Ashland artifacts and historical documents and for educating the community through rotating exhibits, classes, walking tours and kids’ camps. She also was one of four founders of the Ashland Musical Variety Show in 1982 and has been involved in significant ways with every show since. Stewart is the coordina-

tor of the WATCH D.O.G.S Program at Laurel Meadow Elementary School, ensuring that dads are involved in the school. He has served on the PTA board for four years and on Stonewall Jackson Middle School’s PTA board for one year. Stewart also is active in the community, including his church where for the last four years he has taught two sessions every Sunday on becoming better fathers and husbands. He also started a Moving Ministry, which helps people move when they do not have the resources to hire help or rent a truck. He has helped 12 families move to date. Rappahannock Electric Cooperative, represented by Larry Schools, made a $250 contribution to the Ashland Museum and to Laurel Meadow Elementary School in honor of each of the recipients.

Jim Attkisson received the “Spirit of Inspiration” award.

This award honors an individual who has volunteered for 20 years or more within a specific organization. Attkisson not only has been a Rockville Ruritan Club member for 39 years, but he has achieved perfect attendance for his entire

membership. He participates in all fundraising activities and projects, as well as assumes responsibility for the routine duties required to keep the club functioning effectively.

The club’s sale of the “Almost Famous” Brunswick stew generates approximately 30 percent of the annual revenue and Attkisson singlehandedly sells two-thirds of each batch. hE participates in all activities such as the Santa Breakfast and Wounded Warrior Project, as well as donations to three fire/ EMS units, the library, South Anna School and Project Life Saver. Attkisson’s impact in the community is widespread over many agencies and organizations. Award sponsor Grace Community Presbyterian Church, represented by Pastor Clint Dowda, made a $250 contribution to the Rockville Ruritan Club.

HHHunt received “Commitment to the Community” Award. Last year HHHunt partnered with Hanover Habitat for Humanity, and, over a 25day span, donated and built a home for a Habitat homeowner. Over 250 HHHunt staff partnered with 44 of their trade partners to pro-

vide all the materials and labor to build the first home in Bailey Woods in just 25 days. HHHunt continues to donate appliances, furniture and building materials from existing apartment complexes and residential models that are being sold or upgraded.

Last year, volunteers in Hanover collectively contributed 474,868 hours of service.

That total reflects the reported work of over 20,000 volunteers.

These hours of service are calculated to have had a value of more than $10 million.

Wayne T. Hazzard, who serves as chairman of the Hanover County Board of Supervisors and represents the South Anna District, welcomed attendees to the event.

Courtney Garrett, Miss Virginia, was the guest host for the event. She also sung the National Anthem.

Attendees also were entertained by special performances

by Hanover Idol winners Sarah Hopkins and Audrey Kate Taylor, as well as the Hanover High School String Orchestra and the Hanover High School Jazz Band.

be more prudent, if we can’t sustain what we are voting on, is it appropriate to vote for increases if we haven’t identified how we are going to continue to support those increases on an ongoing basis?”

Trivett said he wants the council to look over these statements in the budget with consideration about how it spends taxpayers’ money.

“I think you may need to look closer at finding a good balance between supporting the team we have and making

sure we are making ends meet,” he said.

Council member Faye O. Prichard said she thinks the town council has, during its work sessions and its council retreat, considered paths it can take to try to raise revenues without also raising taxes.

“While I absolutely take your point, we have to be careful with the money that we are entrusted with, I believe that we did that during this budget process,” she said. “We began to say ‘This is how we take care of it in the long haul.’ Not just, ‘This is how we take care of our own in the long haul, but this is

how we take care of all of our own in the long haul.’ ” Mayor George Spagna chimed in by saying, “One of the reasons for the rather large transfer from the unreserved fund is that an awful lot of capital projects -- which are coming to, should we say a harmonic convergence this fiscal year -- which is the things that are having to happen this year and we move the money now to do that.”

Spagna said there are several projects in the works that dictate the council’s use of the money in the budget, including the Streetscape project, paving

projects and the unanticipated restoration of the municipal pool.

Wrapping up the budget conversation, Trivett added, “I appreciate that point and I’m not overlooking that point, but we are making, taking steps to invest in the future. I guess my question is, are we there yet?

Do we have enough in hand to commit ourselves to spending more? I know that’s a delicate balance to find.”

but stressed the process should be ultimately left up to the board.

“The main thing I’m looking for from the public is what skills abilities that we are looking for. I’m not looking for someone to tell me how to make a decision.”

Rives suggested the board approve the RFP measure and begin as soon as possible.

“In the end, you may decide not to hire anybody at all. Starting that process does not obligate you to hire any of the bidders but it gives you the opportunity to consider them and weigh their services and consider the costs,” Rives said.

Vice chairman Hank Lowry agreed and said the interim appointment should be involved in the search process.

“If we are going to have an interim, we certainly want their input,” Lowry said.

The Ashland representative also questioned the wisdom of hiring a firm to perform a function that could be performed internally.

“I am very proud that we in Hanover County have maintained our momentum,” Wilson said. “We have not stood still, and I think that as we have come through the recessive period that there was fear, concern that the school system would not succeed.”

Without appearing boastful about the successes enjoyed by the school system, Wilson did say that it is “envied — but we’ve worked really hard to put ourselves in a position to keep moving forward. We have got to keep moving forward; we

“For any of us who have had the joy to serve alongside her, we can attest to the satisfaction she derives when efforts she champions succeed in increasing the capacity of students and staff alike. It is seemingly in her DNA to want to lift the condition of society. With that orientation, Dr. Wilson will always be making substantial contributions to education,” he added.

“As Dr. Wilson moves from one quality organization to another, she leaves Hanover County Public Schools in a strong place. The University of Richmond has every reason to anticipate the exciting results her effective leadership will bring,” Roberson said.

Superintendent explains move

I have loved every job I have had in Hanover and am a proud parent and resident.

I look forward to seeing the wonderful things our school division will accomplish over the next several years. Thanks again for your support.

Jamelle S. Wilson Superintendent of Schools Hanover County Ashland

One lively spokesperson put it this way: “It seems we ought to be granted the respect of honest, transparent responses to our requests …” To my knowledge, these students have not received answers from the board.

Even though these students showed courage (remember, all the senior school administrators also are in the room and listening to these students) in questioning the board and including, indirectly, the Hanover County Board of Supervisors, their efforts have been seemingly dismissed.

Another observation: David Myers, assistant superintendent (who is doing a fine job for our schools), spoke about surplus property (40 acres held by the school system) at the May 2015 board meeting. He started by saying the board moved the item (surplus property) to Open Session from Closed to provide transparency and openness and to allow “... public discussion.” Board members spoke, Myers added comments, and the board voted 7-0 to return the 40-acre property to the county.

Did I fall asleep during the “public discussion” of this matter?

Someone from the public may have had an opinion, even a great idea on how the school system could make use of those 40 acres to help students.

But, whether the matter was open or closed, the public did not have the opportunity to speak. There was no “public discussion.”

This is yet another classic example of the school board acting on a matter without input from the residents of the county.

I fully realize that the

public cannot interrupt or be involved in board meetings, other than Public Comment.

But the board could certainly do much better in having open dialogue with the public.

I trust that all school board members have the welfare of our public schools and the students as their mantra. But their failure to engage in open dialogue with the public remains a mystery.

At the almost secretive meetings of the Joint Education Committee, school board members do respond to requests from the board of supervisors.

In my opinion, as in the past, I urge the school board to conduct “town hall” type meetings that will allow for a civil and open exchange between the board and the public.

In addition, comments made during the school board meetings should be noted, tracked, and reported back to the public.

My May 8 note to the board, were it to be implemented, would allow for an exchange of ideas that could materially benefit the schools. It was not a criticism of the board but a suggestion as to how possible cost savings could be defined.

Sherrod, Rachel Levy, John Hardy Willson, Mary Anne Pugh and Cathy Easter; Hanover County School Board, Hank Lowry, Norm Sulser, Robert Hundley, Earl Hunter, John Axselle, Sue Dibble and Roger Bourassa; and Hanover County Board of Supervisors, Wayne Hazzard, Aubrey Stanley, Ed Via, Elton Wade, Sean Davis, Angela Kelly-Wiecek and Canova Peterson.)

Good evening, all.

Thank you for your message of support and for your support of the work we do on behalf of children in Hanover.

I have been fortunate to serve with our appointed and elected officials and have learned a great deal.

Please know that my decision to accept the position of Dean of the School of Professional and Continuing Studies was made with an eye toward the once in a lifetime opportunity it is. I am humbled to be given the opportunity to serve at the University level. I will ask that you not assume that there is anything more to my decision than this. Like several others who have made the decision to leave Hanover, I am doing so for a new opportunity which will allow me to grow in new and different ways professionally.

Waiting for a response The proposal for cost reduction was sent to all members of the Hanover County School Board on May 8, 2015. The note has not been acknowledged.

If the school board chooses to reject the suggestion, that is their prerogative. But this failure to even acknowledge is further evidence of the school board’s neglect in responding to concerns and ideas voiced by the public.

If you were to attend a school board meeting, you will hear comments from the public. At the end of the comment, the board will say, “Thank you, Mrs. Smith, we appreciate your comments.”

There is, however, no follow-through on this input from the public. There is no indication that the board members take any action relative to ideas/concerns expressed by the public.

For example, the school board has received strong comments from a group of engaged young people (Hanover Students for Freedom of Information and Learning) concerning restrictions on “controversial material.”

Pets of the Week Photos submitted by Andrew Q. Hodnett

The Hanover County Pound, located at 12471 Taylor Complex Lane in Ashland, has two wonderful pets available to a good home. Graham, 400912, is a 2-year-old male Lab/Shar-Pei mix. He has had his first set of vaccines and is Heartworm test negative. Graham is a very unique dog. He is a mixed breed that has a friendly personality. Graham has a Labrador body with a Shar-Pei head. There is not too much that he does not like to do. He loves to run and play. He is good with other dogs too. Gail, 403289, is a 1-year-old female domestic short-haired cat. She has had her first set of vaccines and is FELV/FIV test negative. Gail has been in the shelter for three weeks. Since then, she really has made a great impression with the staff.

She is very sweet and loves nothing than to be petted and scratched on the head. Gail was most likely an outdoor cat before arriving at the shelter, but staff members said they believe she should adjust just fine indoors. For more information on these two great pets, as well as the many more still in need of homes at the Hanover County Pound Facility, call 804-3656485 during the day. The hours are 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Saturday. The facility is closed on Sunday and county holidays. You also can visit the website to see other animals available for adoption at http://hanovercounty.gov/Animals/ Adopt-a-Pet/.

Atlee coasts, Lee-Davis claws way to titles

By Dylan Garner Richmond Times-Dispatch NEWPORT NEWS – It appeared as if Lee-Davis junior John “JJ” Jordan was being chased by a storm as he rounded the final corner in the 4x400meter relay at the 5A state track and field championships Saturday. He wasn’t running for his life, but rather for the Confederates’ title chances.

As he crossed the finish line, the sun, hidden for hours at that point, shined through the clouds. After a tumultuous day of rain and thunder, one could consider it Mother Nature’s way of congratulating Lee-Davis for its state championship.

After taking the 5A South championships last week, LeeDavis and Atlee, repeated their success at the state level at Todd Stadium, taking the boys and girls championships, respectively. Lee-Davis garnered 60 for its first-place position, while Atlee earned 68 points for its victory.

While the results mirrored last week’s championships, the journey was far from the same, particularly for Lee-Davis.

The Confederates entered the competition as the favorites, and their strengths came through. Senior D.J. Petty took the 110-meter hurdles, and sophomore Connor Scott finished second in the discus, notching seven of the top eight throws on the day despite not

in the afternoon.

Jaylen Banks won the 400, and Devin Barnes won the 800.

Banks also recorded a secondplace finish in the 300-meter hurdles, and Barnes contrib-

uted a third-place performance in the 400, behind Banks. The surging Panthers looked poised to make an upset.

“Hermitage was outstanding. … They did a wonder-

ful job with those few kids,” coach Neil Mathews said. “That was almost one of the greatest performances I’ve ever seen in track and field.”

Entering the final event, the

4x400-meter relay, Lee-Davis was up five points on secondplace Hermitage. The Panthers relay team, led by Banks and Barnes, was the top seed in the event and is one of the strongest in the state.

A rain delay postponed the race by about an hour, leaving Mathews pacing and nervous.

“It was pretty nerve-racking,” Mathews said.

Lee-Davis needed to come within two spots of Hermitage to fend them off for the team title.

Lee-Davis’ relay squad, made of up Sam Franklin, Jeremiah Hankerson, Sheldon Harris and Jordan, didn’t leave things to chance. They jumped out to the lead, amid a returning deluge, and won the competition outright, finishing in a schoolrecord 3:21.82.

“We knew we had to come out here and be perfect in order to pull it off. And I guess we did that,” said Jordan, who could barely hold himself up after the race. “I’m just trying to not die right now.”

The heroics culminated in back-to-back outdoor championships for Mathews and LeeDavis. Not bad for what was initially thought of as a rebuilding year for the young team.

“No one told (the athletes) that this was supposed to be a rebuilding year, apparently,” see TITLES, pg. 37

High-energy Raiders hold off Confederates

By Brad Bess Richmond Times-Dispatch MECHANICSVILLE – Following the national anthem, Atlee co-captain Raine Wilson shouted a question to her team.

“Are you ready, kids?”

“Aye, aye, captain,” her team shouted back, repeating lines from the opening of “SpongeBob SquarePants.”

It may be a cartoon, but the Raiders were ready as soon as they stepped off the bus.

Atlee punched its ticket to the Group 5A softball tournament Friday with a 4-2 win over Lee-Davis in the 5A South semifinals.

Peyton St. George pitched a complete game and hit a two-run single in the first inning. Casey Barrett hit a tworun home run in the fourth.

Atlee goes to 3-1 against the Confederates this season. LeeDavis’ only win against the Raiders came in the Conference 11 title game.

Wilson said the Raiders emphasized a quick start entering Friday.

“I think that’s what we struggled with in the beginning of the year, getting the energy up, and I thought we had that tonight,” she said.

“We were on the bus and we were about to walk out and we all decided, come off the bus with a purpose. Come off the bus with intensity.”

Barrett, the first batter of the game, singled to shallow left and got to second on a sacrifice bunt from Atlee’s lone senior, Annamarie Warley. Kelly Warren hit an infield single, Wilson forced a walk before St. George laced the two-run single down the left-field line.

“It was 2-2 and I knew she was going to come back inside, so I just literally waited on it and I just twisted my hands,” St.

evening on the Patrick Henry softball field despite the presence of a formidable foe. Candace Whittemore saw to that.

Aside from the fifth inning, when she tiptoed her way out of a bases-loaded, no-out jam, the senior pitcher was nearly flawless as the Patriots secured their third trip to the state tournament in four years with a 6-0 victory over visiting George Marshall in the Region 5A North semifinals.

“I think tonight’s the best I’ve seen her throw,” said Patrick Henry coach Shelby Foltz. “She had good command. I could tell she was a little bit more confident.”

Patrick Henry (19-2) hosted the region final Monday night against Briar Woods. The Patriots defeated the Falcons in last year’s 5A state tournament before losing to Great Bridge in

the semifinals. Two years before that, when Whittemore and her fellow seniors were freshmen, they fell to Cosby in the Group AAA state championship.

The Patriots led 5-0 through four innings with Whittemore working on a perfect game.

Shelby Thomas led off with a double for the Statesmen (20-5), followed by an error and a walk to load the bases.

Whittemore wasn’t fazed, inducing a popup and a harmless fly ball before striking out Audra Scheinman to end Marshall’s only real threat. She allowed just one walk and one single the rest of the way, scattering two hits and two walks over six innings while striking out eight.

“I’m normally not nervous in those kinds of situations,” Whittemore said. “We also had runs on the board, so we were winning, and I know my defense has got my back.”

Paige Mitchell put Patrick Henry on the board with a twoout, two-run homer in the third inning, fouling off five Madison Larsen pitches before depositing the 10th pitch of the at-bat over the right-field fence.

“We had a game plan when we went up there to take the outside pitch away,” Mitchell said. “My game plan was just to keep fouling that thing off until she threw one that I knew I could do something with.”

The Patriots tacked on three more runs in the fourth. Jenna Pitts led off with a single and commenced running on Hailey Thomas’s sacrifice bunt. Her hustle paid off when Scheinman couldn’t handle the throw to first, and she came all the way around from first to score.

“We have a lot of kids who enjoy running the bases and who are really aggressive on the

Hawks return to state baseball tournament

By Danny Polk For The Mechanicsville Local GLEN ALLEN – It’s a situation all too familiar to Hanover, one that didn’t turn out so bad the last time around. The Hawks once again convened on RF&P Park in quest of a regional title, but for a second time fell short – this time 15-4 to a fiery hot Glen Allen team.

Hanover dropped a 5-1 decision to Douglas Freeman in front of a full house at RF&P Park two years ago in the Central Region championship.

The Hawks went on to capture the Group AAA state title.

“We got beat pretty good against Freeman, so I hope we can draw on our experience,” Hanover head coach Charlie Dragum said. “We just have to get a lot better in the next week because those guys play us well.”

Despite striking first, the Hawks were unable to match Glen Allen’s offense. The Jaguars recorded an unprecedented seventeen hits, including two home runs from Kyle Battle.

“You can’t plan for that.

Our guys just executed today.

Everything they hit was hard and it’s against a pitching staff that is extraordinary,” Glen Allen head coach David Savino said. “If they have that approach at the plate then they’ll be tough to beat.”

Hanover was without the arms of two of its top pitchers, Grey Lyttle and Jack Dragum, who threw in the Hawks’ 132 semifinal win over Grafton.

That left pitching duties to John Gregory and the Hanover bullpen, who struggled to find a rhythm.

“We were behind in the count all day today. That made it easy for them to sit on fastballs and that’s what they did, and they pounded them,” Dragum said. “They outplayed

The Hawks enter the state tournament for a third straight season looking for a third title.

“It’s not a do or die game.

Obviously we would like a regional title, but we just got beat by a team that was better than us today. A one run loss or a 14 run loss, it’s all the same,” Dragum said. “Hopefully our guys will respond in the right way. That’s all we can hope.”

But in the top of the sixth, he threw a first-pitch fastball to Matt Borowski, the George Marshall (Fairfax) cleanup hitter, that he would quickly regret.

Borowski slammed the pitch deep to left-center field for a two-run homer, sending Marshall to a 3-2 victory over Patrick Henry on Friday night in the 5A North semifinals. For the second consecutive year, Patrick Henry (15-7)was eliminated by Marshall (16-6), which gains a berth in the 5A state tournament.

“It looked like a beach ball,” Borowski said of the home run pitch. “I was in the zone. I came to compete.”

Harrington struck out 11 and looked sharp most of the night. But Mitch Blackstone, Borowski and Shane Russell —

Marshall’s 3-4-5 hitters — had Harrington’s number. The trio went 7 for 11 with three runs and three RBIs. Blackstone hit a solo homer in the third to put Marshall up 1-0.

But Patrick Henry took the lead in the fifth when A.J. Hart hit a fly ball to right that rolled in and out of the right fielder’s glove. The ball hit the ground, allowing two runs to score and giving Patrick Henry a 2-1 lead.

But that was all the offense the Patriots could muster.

“We were 21 outs away,” said Patrick Henry coach Sam Hart. “You couldn’t ask for a better situation. It just didn’t work out.”

Offense has been a problem lately for the Patriots. But exemplary pitching has bailed them out the past two games, which were both won by a score of 1-0.

This time, Patrick Henry faced an opposing pitcher as good as its own, Steven Johel.

The junior righty pounded the zone with low fastballs and frequently got ahead in the count. He went 6⅔ innings, then was relieved by Will Brooke.

Brooke struck out Harrington, ending the game, and the Marshall players dog piled on Patrick Henry’s infield.

Late burst earns Atlee 5A South lacrosse title

By Kris Mason For The Mechanicsville Local ASHLAND – The Atlee Raiders went on an 8-1 run in the final quarter to stun Douglas Freeman with a 15-8 victory in the final of the Region 5A South boys lacrosse tournament at Randolph-Macon College’s Day Field Friday night.

Both the Raiders and the Rebels (15-3) advance to the Virginia High School League Group 5A state tournament.

Atlee will host Region 5A North runner-up George Marshall Tuesday at 7 p.m., while Douglas Freeman will travel to play 5A North champion Stone Bridge at Rock Ridge High School in Ashburn Tuesday at 6 p.m.

Group 2A state baseball tournament at Radford University, which begins Friday.

King William was one of the last eight teams standing in Group 2A, but that was little consolation, especially for the team’s seniors.

“When you get to this point, you don’t want [the season] to end,” said King William head coach Jay Blanton. “When you get to the last eight teams and you can kind of taste that final four and making that trip to Radford. … It’s tough when you get a taste of it and it’s right there and you can’t achieve what [your] goals were.

by Crawford and his coaching staff.

“It’s something we’ve been focusing on because we did a breakdown of our first half to second half goals for the season, and we had 40 more goals in the first half throughout the season,” Crawford said.

Atlee will host Marshall while Freeman will travel to Stonebridge.

“I’m excited that we get to host on Tuesday, we don’t have to travel up to Loudon County, which is a long drive on a school bus,” Crawford said. “We get to host it at home where we want Hannah Grasberger for The Local to be.”

aggressive nature of Hatch’s play.

“He’s a sophomore. he’s young, he’s raw but we’ve been working with him to try to get that killer instinct when he catches the ball to go northsouth and dodge,” Crawford said. “We know what he’s capable of if he’s running and gets his right hand free. You saw tonight what he’s able to do. I thought he had a great individual effort.”

However, Crawford felt that the victory was a team effort.

Attacker Dylan Rice chipped in with three goals while Connor Saul, Kevin Lawlor and Booth Watson each had two goals.

Goalkeeper Hunter Bagby collected 14 saves.

Atlee jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the first quarter and led 3-1 at the end of the first.

Freeman battled back in the second quarter during which they scored four goals, half of which were scored by midfielder Evan Tyler. The game was tied at halftime at 5-all.

guys set the goal high from the beginning of the year. They said they wanted to go to Radford.

They wanted to be in the final four.”

Strasburg had three hits the first inning, but multiple King William errors contributed to the three-run lead that forced the Cavaliers into comeback mode the rest of the game.

“We spotted them three there in the first,” Blanton said.

“They’re a very good team and they’re very well disciplined – and they’re experienced. … You can’t give them runs like that.”

While the Rams added another run in the fourth inning, the Cavaliers had a problem: They could get runners in scoring position, but could not get them across the plate.

“Offensively, we had like three innings where we had two runners on base and either couldn’t move the runners up during an at-bat or get a base hit to score the runs,” Blanton said.

“When you get opportunities, you’ve got to take advantage of them.”

Part of King William’s problem was Strasburg’s pitcher, Garrett Richards. Richards, in his first complete game of the season, struck out 10 Cavaliers in earning the win.

“I just tried to throw strikes and have my defense back me up in the infield and the outfield, and they did. They backed me up all over the place,” Richards said. “They made great plays. It was awesome.”

Hawks clinch berth in state soccer championship step up,” Body said. “Today, it was a freshman.”

Hanover clinched a spot in the state tournament and will face Jamestown in the 4A South regional final on Friday.

The Eagles beat NansemondSuffolk 3-1 in the other semifinal.

This is new territory for the Hawks, but Body is confident that his team will come out strong for the regional final.

“You need to play relaxed, and keep your composure,” he said. “Just play good soccer.

“They can go all the way.”

Billy Fellin can be reached at sports@mechlocal.com.

By Billy Fellin For the Mechanicsville Local RICHMOND – The offense came early and then late for the Hanover Hawks in the 4A South boys soccer regional semifinal against Smithfield.

In between, there was defense aplenty in the cold, rainy weather.

Two goals from freshman Ian Glisson at the 5- and 74minute marks and stout defense powered the Hawks past the Packers 2-0 on Wednesday at River City Sportsplex and into the regional final.

Glisson’s speed was on display from the start and caught Smithfield (13-3-2) on its heels, allowing him to get through the defense and score an early goal.

That early goal allowed the Hawks’ defense to get its footing with the lead, and they didn’t falter.

The Hawks improved to 151-3.

No shot from Smithfield went uncontested and those that did get through were handled by Hanover keeper Adam Farnsworth.

“My defense put up a clean

sheet today,” said Hanover coach Laurent Body. “We have an excellent goalkeeper in Adam Farnsworth. He’s a wall.

My defense played together, they talked together. It was hard out there. (Smithfield) was aggressive and was pressing the whole time.”

The aggressiveness was evident at the start of the second half when a few chances

from Smithfield were sent into the Hawks’ defense, but were cut down before reaching Farnsworth.

Despite the stellar play from the Hawks’ defense and Farnsworth, there were a few close calls for the Packers to get on the board. Early in the game, a shot went off the post. Later in the second half, the Packers had two direct kicks which

were on target, but one was off the crossbar and the other was saved by Farnsworth.

After the Smithfield defense had adjusted to Glisson’s speed (he was offside 12 times, according to Body), Glisson was able to get loose and beat Packers goalie Cameron Wheeler oneon-one to put the game away for Hanover.

“All year, we’ve had guys

Hanover 2, Denbigh 1 MECHANICSVILLE – Hanover senior midfielder Michael Carlson picked up his second goal of the game with six minutes remaining to give the Hawks a 2-1 victory over Denbigh in the Region 4A South quarterfinals Tuesday night.

Carlson’s game winner came off a corner kick by freshman forward Ian Glisson, who placed the ball perfectly to set up the goal.

Denbigh threatened in the

final six minutes and stoppage time, including when Glisson drew a yellow card when Denbigh junior Elcor Castillo fell to the ground as Glisson was attacking the net. However, Hanover was able to overcome this controversial call and hold on for the win.

Carlson’s goal broke a 20minute stalemate after Denbigh scored with 28 minutes remaining on a penalty kick by Patriots’ junior Irvin Sanchez that knotted the game at one.

The game began Monday but was stopped just before halftime because of lightning in the area. The Hawks had taken a 1-0 lead in the midway through the first half on Carlson’s first goal. Play was stopped with less than a minute in stoppage time – just shy of what would have been considered a complete game.

Nonetheless, play resumed Tuesday afternoon at Hanover under an overcast sky. The teams stalled for the 30 seconds before remaining before halftime, with Denbigh standing on the ball and the other 21 players standing around waiting for the clock to wind down.

Mills Godwin ousts Atlee from girls soccer tournament

“It’s hard to play a team three times and be successful against them,” said Mills Godwin coach Ali Toole.

Sarah Puglisi finally got things going for Mills Godwin when she connected with the back of the net in the 35th minute of the first half. Freshman Paige Franks scored just two minutes after Puglisi to put the Eagles up 2-0 at halftime.

Puglisi, however, was trying to keep her team motivated at halftime, because Atlee had defeated Clover Hill 5-4 with four unanswered goals in the second half of the quarterfinals.

“Sarah was like ‘We cannot let them do what they did

to Clover Hill, so we have to stay on our toes, we have to be good, and we have to continue to fight,’” Toole said. “So I didn’t have to say anything. They took care of it.”

Godwin girls beat Atlee and Hanover wins against Smithfield at the River City Sportsplex.

She also gave a lot of credit to her defense.

“I think our entire back line did a great job,” Toole said.

“There were lots of times they could have opened up and had a breakaway, and one of them

stepped up big. Kara (Vlahcevic) also did great at goal. They had a lot of good quality shots and she handled them really well.”

Caroline Cipolla also played great defense on one of Atlee’s most agile players, Jamari Blackwell.

“It’s a real fight and Jamari is a great player,” Cipolla said.

“I love going up against her because she’s fast and she tests how well of a great player that I am, and I love playing against her because she challenges me to be a better player.”

Toole said she agreed. “(Blackwell’s) speed is so special, her and Molly Shields in the middle, really being able to open things up. Riley Cook, Kasey Booth, they’re just a really good all-around team.”

Franks finished with a game-high two goals, scoring her second in the 30th minute of the second half.

“I think it is pretty awesome to have my team support me that way. I am excited, and I am just ready for states,” Franks said.

TITLES Continued from pg. 32

Mathews said. “Did I think we would be in this position? I was hoping we would be pushing to make some noise this year.

But instead, we ended up where we did.”

Atlee’s championship came with slightly less resistance, but a slow start on Day 1 left the Raiders without the advantage they are typically used to. The 4x800-meter relay team that set a school-record at the region meet came in fourth this time around.

But the Raiders, who have shown consistency throughout the season, fired on all cylinders in the second day of competition. Senior Carly Feyerabend took the 100-meter hurdles and finished second in the high jump.

Senior India Lowe conceded the 100-meter hurdles to her teammate, but continued her dominance in the 300-meter hurdles — an event she has gone uncontested in since the state meet in 2013.

Another of the seniors, Chloe Bavin, rebounded from

the 4x800-meter relay to finish third in the 1,600-meter run and scored in the 800-meter run.

“I can’t say enough about our seniors,” said Atlee assistant coach Nick Robinson. “To be able to walk away winning the state title, it literally can’t end any better than that.”

Robinson and the girls called coach Jim Triemplar, who stayed in Richmond to continue his recovery from a medical issue, when they knew they had the state title locked up.

“I know he’d love to be here, but if he can’t be here, at least we let him know as soon as we know we were state champs,” said Robinson, who ran on Triemplar’s team until his graduation from Atlee in 2002. “And I know he’s happy.”

Richmond defangs Venom for fifth-straight win

By Dave Lawrence Sports Editor RICHMOND – What a difference a few weeks makes.

On April 25 in Nashville, the Venom beat visiting Richmond by 20 points. Saturday night, on the Raiders’ home turf in the Richmond Coliseum, the Raiders beat the Venom by 24 points, 54-30, for their fifth straight Professional Indoor Football League victory.

“We’re playing well,” said Richmond head coach James Fuller. “We’re feeding off each other – offense and defense.

We hit on all cylinders tonight.

Offense had some good, defense had some good, and special teams scored tonight.”

The Hawks didn’t take long to get back in their groove once play resumed. Kaylyn Shepherd tripled in the bottom of the fourth and scored on Erin Acors’ sacrifice fly to right field to increase the Hawks’ lead to 2-0.

Hanover head coach Stephanie Acors was impressed with Erin’s ability to know what approach to take at the plate.

“She’s a really good situational hitter,” Acors said. “She knows when to hit behind the runner, when to hit it out of the infield, so she knew her job.”

The two-run lead was more than enough run support for Gilbert, who pitched a complete

game shutout. Gilbert allowed only one baserunner after the fourth inning. Kings Fork shortstop Lauryn Bailey drew a walk, but the threat was quickly taken care of when the next batter second baseman Susan Mounie grounded out to first to end the game.

Head coach Acors was impressed with Gilbert’s outing, especially given the weather.

“She did a good job,” Acors said. “I was worried because you never know if you’re gonna get the same strike zone, but Hayley came out throwing.”

King William 10, Buffalo Gap 2 SWOOPE – King William made sure it wasn’t even close.

The Cavaliers, eager for a return trip to the Virginia High School League Group 2A state basketball tournament, jumped

completed 19 of 34 passes for 242 yards and one interception.

McCullum completed 21 of 38 passes for 255 yards and an interception. But Bane threw five touchdown passes, and added another rushing score, to just three touchdowns passing for McCullum.

Bane credits his offense for helping him get more comfortable in the backfield.

“The line is making it more comfortable for me,” Bane said.

“They’re really busting their butt every day to get better. With great protection and receivers running great routes and catching the ball for you, you just naturally become comfortable back there and the game begins to slow down for you.”

Bane had his share of knockdowns early in the season, but Saturday night he wasn’t sacked

once.

McCullum, however, was sacked six times by the Raiders’ defense.

“Nashville is known as one of the best [offensive] lines in the league,” Fuller said. “We matched them tonight and I think we did a very good job of continually keeping pressure on the Q.” The teams were fairly evenly matched at the start, both managing just one touchdown in the first quarter. A T.C. Stevens field goal gave the Raiders a 10-8 edge.

Nashville, though took a 15-10 lead with 14:15 left in the second quarter on a 30yard pass from McCullum to Dontel Watkins, but after that the momentum started shifting in Richmond’s favor.

The Raiders scored three of

the remaining four touchdowns of the second quarter. The first came on a 15-yard pass from Jonathan Bane to Robert Holland. The second came on a 53-yard kickoff return down the left side by Daron Clark, and the third was on a 1-yard run by Bane.

Richmond held the Venom scoreless in the third quarter.

Nashville’s sole second-half touchdown came too late in the game – 1:04 left in the final quarter – to have any effect on the outcome.

“There was not much we could do,” said Nashville head coach Billy Back. “[The Raiders] were well prepared. … These guys are playing well as a unit.

It’s a good time to be doing it.”

on host Buffalo Gap early with four runs in each of the first and third innings en route to a 10-2 victory over the Bison in a Region 2A East semifinal Friday afternoon.

Because of repeated weather delays last week, the region championship game between King William and Page County – the team that defeated them in the Group 2A championship last year – was held Monday.

The state tournament begins with a semifinal between Floyd County and the Region 2A East runner-up at Radford University at 10 a.m.

“That really helped our momentum to settle the nerves down a little bit,” King William co-coach Barbara Baker said of the four-run first inning.

“Having a four-run lead and then Kayla [Huffman] came out in the first inning and second inning and mowed them down one-two-three, one-two-three, which really helped, and then our bats started coming alive a

little bit.”

Huffman struck out 15 Bison, but the two runs she allowed – one each in the fourth and sixth innings – were the first she had surrendered in the postseason.

Baker was pleased with the production from the bottom half of her batting order.

King William (21-0) left fielder Hailey Baldwin, in the No. 8 spot in the lineup, went 3 for 4 – her only out was in her first appearance at the plate – with a double and three RBIs to lead the King William offense.

Right fielder Shannon Hott, at No. 7 in the lineup, also went 3 for 4 with two RBIs. Second baseman Brittney Branch, in the No. 6 position in the batting order, had just two official plate appearances, turning one of them into a double, but was hit by pitches twice and walked another time and scored four runs for the Cavaliers.

Shortstop Sierra Healey, in the ninth position, also had two hits

and was hit by a pitch.

“When you have your bottom half hitting, it is really good,” Baker said.

Baker also had some production from the top half of her lineup, too. For example, third baseman Essence Jackson, the Cavaliers’ leadoff batter, also had a double and two RBIs. Buffalo Gap (20-4) was led by center fielder Sierra Clifton with two runs scored – one from a home run.

Buffalo Gap head coach Dawn Sheets said her team’s penchant for slow starts caught up with them.

“We have had this pattern of picking up around the fifth of sixth inning and it’s too late when you play good teams like King William,” Sheets said.

“We’ve explained that to them, like, ‘You’ve got to put together seven innings,’ then we come out flat the first three or four and then we try to pick it up – and it’s to late.”
