Both the Cabell Midland boys and girls cross country teams qualified for the state meet to be held on Saturday, Nov. 1. The boys team finished first with six of their runners earning top 10 finishes. The girls also had a strong performance, placing third. All seven members on the boys team finished the regional championship

race in less than 18 minutes. All of the runners crossed the finish line within 43 seconds from first to last. Brandon Atkinson led the Midland charge and finished second with a time of 17:11.7. The only runner to beat Atkinson was Winfield’s R.J. Weiford (17:05.8). “I feel pretty good,” Atkinson said. “I haven’t had the season I wanted to, but it shows I can push through it and get it done. I get to run with a great group of guys and I’m excited for us

to go to states and see what we can do. I look forward to seeing what we can do against University and the other powerhouses.” Atkinson is ranked 13th in the state individually and was followed across the line by Josh Minor in third and Austin Jordan in fourth. Minor finished with a time of 17:19.7 and is ranked 14th in the state. Jordan, who finished the regional race with a time of

No. 4 Cabell Midland tops No.7 Spring Valley on senior night By Zach Cumberland zach@theputnamstandard.com Cabell Midland led 14-6 at the half on senior night in Ona. After halftime the Class AAA No. 4 Knights left no doubt as to which team was better as they toppled No. 7 Spring Valley. The Oct. 24 matchup featured two (7-1) teams with contrasting styles of play. It’s no secret the Knights win games on the ground and this one was no different.

“That’s kinda how we win,” said Cabell Midland head coach Luke Salmons after his squad scored four second-half TD’s. “We play a lot of kids and these kids are still working in the weight room. We’re fresh. We’re healthy. There’s are not really a lot of kids banged up and that’s because we’re playing a lot of them and they’re in good shape.” Midland running back Alex Childers grinded out 170 yards on 21 carries and went over the

1,400 yard mark on the season in the 42-14 victory. Childers ran for one touchdown and caught another in the second half, which was a 48-yard touchdown strike over the middle from quarterback Coy Pettit. “It’s been a committee of guys,” See Football, Page 16 The offensive line hits some key blocks so running back can get a first down.

The Lady Knights soccer team ends 2014 season By Michael Circle michael@theputnamstandard.com

After a hard-fought battle with the Spring Valley Timberwolves, Cabell Midlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s girls soccer season came to a close on a 3-1 loss. Despite the defeat, coach Andy Wilson said his girls played hard and very well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted to play a little longer,â&#x20AC;? Wilson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They exceeded my expectations, though, and even though we lost tonight, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still pretty darn proud of them. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done well and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy as could be with these girls.â&#x20AC;? With a final speech to his players and a few tears as senior Heather Barker commended her teammates on their final game, Wilson gave encouragement and recognition to the team on the sideline. Wilson said his season is over but he would start the new season now if he could. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a great group of really good kids coming in,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I

would like to start today. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re young with mostly freshmen and sophomores, and a few juniors, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m excited.â&#x20AC;? Spring Valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attack on net was strong and even though three shots got past her, Kasha Sheets held her composure in the goalie box, making six saves in the first half. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was ready for everything in the second half,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew that if it did come back to me, [the Knights] would be able to get it with just how good they were playing in the second half. I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worried about anything.â&#x20AC;? During the first 40 minutes, the Timberwolves had a two-goal run on the Knights, sending Midland into a tough halftime meeting to work out the kinks and prepare themselves for the second half. When the whistle blew, and the second 40 began, the Knights came out of the gate hard, aggressive and ready. Scoring off of the foot

of freshman Ripley Haney, the Knightsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sails swelled and confidence grew. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the first half, we definitely needed to step it up,â&#x20AC;? Haney said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After Andy talked to us, we stepped it up and got better in the second. We just realized how much we wanted it and wanted to play at home.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was happy I made my goal,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really wanted to make a goal to contribute to this team. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just me. Without the other forwards, I would not be able to get that one in.â&#x20AC;? Haneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal was the only one the Wolves would suffer before finding the back of the Knightsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; net off a shot from Canaan Booten, her

second goal of the night. Pushing the score up 3-1, Spring Valley closed the book on the game and celebrated. Still, the Knights were pleased with their second-half play and were happy to show their true strength in the game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We definitely played better in the second half,â&#x20AC;? Aubree HowardBrown said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I personally stepped it up more. I think we needed a little waking moment to get our minds right. We wanted it the first half, but it was more apparent in the second.â&#x20AC;? As the clock ran down, and the outcome of the game was decided, a winning season came to an end. For the first time in her four years

on the field, Barker was on a successful team and her tears of joy for the season and sadness for the loss were absorbed by her teammates. Many of the girls will move on to travel soccer, playing with rival team members from nearby schools, as others will begin the basketball or indoor track season at their own. For Wilson, he said he just could not wait to get back in the saddle and see what these girls will do next year.

Mary Jane recently participated in the Fall Quilt Show at Salt Rock Library.

Weekly Devotional Submitted by Mary Jane “THREADS OF TIME Thought for the week; Ezekiel 16: 10 (KJV) I clothed thee also with broidered work, and shod thee with badger’s skin, and I girded thee about with fine linen, and I covered thee with silk. I came from a family of sewers and quilters, my grandmother, my sisters all had sewing machines and loved to sew and quilt, so I inherited the love of this hobby also. Adam and Eve were covered with leaves, and then animal skins were used for coverings. During the 16 th century the Persians watched how silkworms work and spin, and came up with crude type spinning wheels, and weaving flax and other items into a cloth type. Over time and experience they learned how to layer for thickness and making cloth and silk fabric, the first needle was made from animal bone splinter or wood. In the late 18 th century, the Americans improved weaving and spinning wheels making fabric from cotton. Exodus 22: 26-27 - If thou at all take thy neighbors raiment to

pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down. For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin, wherein shall he sleep? And it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear, for I am gracious. Think how important our cloth is to us, fabric is in our lives many ways, you not only wear it daily ,sit and sleep on and under it, outer garments alone, is a super billion dollar business, consider rugs, furniture, canopies, and umbrellas. You can go on and on, the many types of thread, yarns, and fabrics we use in various ways. I recently participated in the Fall Quilt Show at Salt Rock Library, there are so many quilters out there, and all the handiwork was beautiful... Wherefore, if God so cloth the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is casr into the oven, shall he not much more cloth you, O ye of little faith.Matthew 6:30 Prayer: Thank you Heavenly Father for those past and present, who use their hands creating stitches for others to enjoy.

for next summer. “I would like to see a successful summer,” she said. “We have a lot of projects I really think are going to be nice for the area. By September of next year I would like everyone to feel we had a successful summer and it offered something they’ve never seen before and they support my position. I think if that happens, we have so much to market going forward.” Most of the summer plans, as well as the plans in between, will be focused on the 750-acre Barboursville Park, an area Beasley said is a marketing gold mine. “It’s kind of going to be a ‘discover the park’ kind of thing,” she said. “There is so much to offer at the park that I think folks just don’t know if they’re not from this area. It’s sort of a hidden treasure. It’s been the most exciting part for me both as a resident and being involved with my job because I have so much to market there and so much to enjoy as a resident as well.” Beasley said that advertising the existing facilities will be a costeffective way to bring visitors to the park, without adding a lot of extra expense. “That is a resource that we’ve had here forever that we’re just not marketing to the best of our ability,” she said. “There are a lot of facilities that already exist out there that folks don’t know are out there. We have a nature trail. We have the amphitheater. They stock the lake twice a year. Things like that need to be out there. That knowledge needs to be given to anybody who wants to utilize it.” In the coming months, Beasley said, mapping the park trails will be a top priority. “I think things like having a professional map guide of the park done is a priority – it has to be done,” she said. “We have bike and hiking trails developed that just aren’t on a map anywhere for folks to know they exist. That’s going to be one of our biggest priorities.” Beasley, who moved to the tri-state area from Marion County in 2004, came to the CVB from the Big Sandy Superstore Arena, where she was largely responsible for scheduling entertainment. This, said Mayor Paul Turman Sr., made her uniquely qualified for what the city has in mind for long-term goals: new entertainment acts to bring in more visitors. “She had probably the best experience of anyone we interviewed,” he said. “Our one priority is for the community to feel this is something they need to be involved in. We have a point person here to communicate with the community to get a feeling for what they want.” Although rock concerts are no longer Beasley’s priority, she said it wouldn’t be impossible to bring an outdoor music festival to Barboursville Park. “Outdoor shows are a little different, but to be honest with you,

Village of Barboursville Convention and Visitors Bureau Director Brandi Beasley held an open house last week to meet local residents. outdoor music festivals are sometimes easier to bring artists in,” she said. “They don’t ask for as much, their price tag usually isn’t as high, security is a little different, so your expenses are lower.” Before this could happen, however, Beasley said her mapping project would have to be finished so they would know the capacity of the park. “We could hold a large crowd of folks, but of course you want to make sure we’re following fire code regulations,” she said. “Once we gauge that, if we draw enough attention to it, maybe draw some sponsorship, get it named or something like that, then sure, why not. It’s not an impossible feat at all.” Beasley said a lot of the community consists of families with children, which is why a lot of the focus will be on family entertainment going forward. “A great part of our population is families so we definitely want to market toward them and offer them some things that they just don’t have here and they have to travel somewhere else to do,” she said. “There are just so many things that we can do – so many different

avenues to go and so many great ideas from citizens, board members and council members. The sky is the limit. It just has to be deciding what we’re going to do first and how we’re going to continue on from there.” While the park is the largest priority, Beasley said the downtown area cannot be underestimated in its potential to bring in visitors. “The big moves will be definitely geared toward the park, and then there’s some smaller projects I want to do geared toward the downtown area as well,” she said. “We have an historical aspect to the downtown area that we’d like to develop smaller activities that kind of tell the beautiful part about the town.” While Beasley will bring the technical and marketing side to the CVB, she is relying on the community to help her find her feet in the coming months. “In order for you to plan things and for them to be successful, you have to first give the community what they want,” she said. “Then if they support it, then it brings in outside tourists. Unless the community backs you up, the event is a dud.”

Velma’s View Submitted by Velma Kitchens Not voting? Once again it is almost time to go to the polls and vote. Now I know some people who say it doesn’t matter if you vote or not, but I believe it does matter. I am glad to live in a free country where we elect our officials and they work for us (did I really say they work for us?). Well, when was the last time your elected official voted your values, voted the right and voted the moral thing to do? When was the last time your elected official voted for the sanctity of marriage, home and family? When was the last time your elected official voted to do away with the killing of the babies? When was the last time your elected official voted for prayers to the God almighty to be said in public

school? When you go to vote for that person think about the moral issues then ask when was the last time your elected official voted to save the jobs of the coal miners who work hard to make a living and keep the lights on? We all love God’s creation but for the love of Pete we have to cut some trees and dig into some mountains for the coal that God placed in them for us to use. We need not be do dependent on foreign supplies to meet our needs. And by the way when was the last time your elected officials decide to vote for you, the person who pays their salary and gave them their jobs in politics? Go vote, it’s the right thing to do. How is that bible reading going?

The Cabell Standard

Cabell schools to test new learning program By Amanda Smythers amanda@theputnamstandard.com

Cabell County Public Schools is spearheading another project on behalf of the state, this time testing a new professional development system. “The state is designing a new experimental learning program and two of your schools, Salt Rock Elementary and Culloden Elementary, have been participating in this new professional learning opportunity,” Dee Cockrille, the executive director of RESA 2, said at the Oct. 21 Board of Education meeting. “The state is going to use the three schools in region two and the two schools in region three as exemplars for how this might role out to every school in the state in 2017.” RESA 2 is an educational agency that provides technical support and enhances collaboration between the counties of its service area. RESA 2 covers the counties of Cabell, Lincoln, Logan, Mingo and

Wayne and is used as a resource for staff development and cost sharing initiatives, among other services. In the required annual report presentation, Cockrille told the board that professional development remains a top priority for the organization and that all sessions this year were well attended. “Last year we had 4,000 participants in 185 sessions,” she said. “We are working on Next Gen standards, or the common core as you know, so we can support the implementation that is so critical for our testing next year with Smart Balance testing.” Next Gen standards are a large part of all curricula, especially that of elementary schools, Cockrille said. She said Cabell County is consistently ranked among the top for how quickly it adapts to effectively use the standards. “The work that Cabell County has done in the terms of Next Gen standards is exemplary,” she said. “That work has been critically looked out across the region. Ca-

bell County participated in many of our sessions and is also participating in a specialized math grant for elementary schools also working on Next Gen standards.” While Next Gen standards are a statewide focus, the new professional development program being tested in Salt Rock and Culloden Elementary schools allows teachers to choose what specifically needs to be developed in their schools. “They are working on a nonmodel model,” said Tim Hardesty, administrative assistant for elementary schools. “They’re looking at their staff needs and they’re using their staff needs to develop their own professional development. The whole goal is to see what the school needs instead of a county based mold.” Hardesty said the program is unique in how it bypasses the administrative level to go directly to the teachers in the classroom. “It’s bottom up,” he said. “The teachers get together and the teachers decide as a school what they

want to work on. The focus will be different at each school.” Hardesty said he has received positive feedback from both administrators and staff members at the respective schools. More importantly, however, the schools get to participate in a revolutionary program with little to no cost to the county. “The state board has given RESA funding for this project,” he said. “It is very minimal to us. Dee and her team work with us and they provide staff development to the school. RESA comes and really they work around our schedule to provide the training. The only thing we have so far is maybe some substitutes to come and cover classes for training.” Cockrille said the state board of education plans to roll out the program to all schools by 2017. In other news: * The new expeditionary learning school, which will eventually combine the students into a renovated Beverly Hills Middle School

facility, will be housed at Geneva Kent Elementary School for the 2015-16 school year. The superintendent recommended the name “Voyager Expeditionary Academy” for the school, but the agenda item was tabled in favor of conducting more voting among students. * Cabell County Schools has begun a state-required employee assistance program through which employees can receive a free, 15-minute mental health consultation via telephone. Todd Alexander, assistant superintendent for leadership and administrative services, said employees have been notified through brochures sent to the schools. * The next board meeting will take place at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 18. The regularly scheduled Nov. 4 meeting is canceled. At 4 p.m. Nov 18, Central City, Southside, Spring Hill, Highlawn, Peyton and Geneva Kent Elementary Schools will meet for their annual LSIC meeting.

also push as much as they can against the doorway to make entrances hard as possible for a hostile intruder entering the building,” McMillan said. “Right now, as I see our current lockdown procedures, we’re kind of sitting targets. This gives our students and staff more options to increase safety.” In the upcoming crisis drills, students will practice barricading their doors before hiding in the classroom. “We’re going to practice light barricading of the doors, pushing small things up against the doors,” he said. “And then we’re going to talk about larger things we can push in the long run.” Although a Southside Elementary School teacher brought concerns to the board of education at their last regularly scheduled meeting, Smith said he things students and staff will be able to handle the drill. “We live in a different world, and we don’t want to alarm kids needlessly, but we have to make sure they’re informed,” he said. Assistant Superintendent Todd Alexander said he made minor changes to the elementary schools’ drills, but expects teachers to be able to handle the situation without over alarming the students. “Obviously the younger we get with the age groups, the more careful we have to be with that process,” he said. “We’ve heard some concerns from some elementary staff about controlling that and we’ve made an attempt to make that as easy as we can on the younger age groups.”

ers. “One of the things we have in our schools that we didn’t have years ago are cameras,” Smith said. “Someone near the cameras may say the intruder is in C hallwaywell that tells the students in B hallway where the intruder is and the teachers or students can make choices on whether to evacuate or stay in place.” Based on research, Alexander said, the intruder is likely to stay in the building, making information a critical part of the process. “Really what this is if there is an event inside the school,” he said. “Unfortunately, in a lot of the cases, it’s actually a student in the school.” McMillan said information will ideally be given to students and staff continuously in the case of an intruder scenario, adding that the ALICE steps are not meant to occur in a strict chronological order. “We will try to keep the information flowing to the staff and students – that’s what the inform means,” he said. “It is not a chronological acronym. It may happen in quite different order.”

do whatever you can do.” McMillan said elementary school children would most likely be spared this detail, instead relying on the staff to act appropriately as the occasion should warrant. “This is not something that we advocate very much for our small children,” he said, adding that counter measures would not be practiced during drills. “When we do our walk throughs and our practice drills, we are going to keep this as a very low key, stress-free situation. We are not trying to create panic in anyway. This is just something we want our students to be prepared for if at all possible.”

on the second floor and they made a makeshift rope to lower kids down and get kids out that way. Each building is going to present its own unique scenarios so it will literally be different in each school.” Following evacuation, the students and staff will meet at a rally point, after which law enforcement will escort them to the reunification point, allowing parents to take their children home. “Each school will have a rally point that, of course, will not be advertised as much as possible,” McMillan said. “They will go to that rally point. Law enforcement will also be informed of the rally point for each school, so not only will law enforcement come to the school if there is an incident but they will go to the rally point to make sure it’s safe as well for the students.”

Schools From Page 1 Smith said he decided to adopt the protocol, training all principals in July. In September, the staff at each school was trained leading the way for students to begin classroom training Oct. 29 and 30 before conducting crisis drills Nov. 3-7. “We don’t have to look any further than last Friday as to the importance of why we’re here today,” McMillan said. “What happened in Washington State, those types of situations are very tragic and have not happened here but we want to be prepared just in case they do.” The new procedure is broken down as follows: A – Alert McMillan said the ALICE procedure encourages staff members to use direct language, rather than creating codes for different situations. “In the past we have used language like ‘we have a code red,’ McMillan said. “We’ve gone more toward truthful language. We may use something like ‘we have a hostile intruder in X hallway,” and then the students, teachers and staff will react from that point.” McMillan said this ensures students and staff will be alert to what is going on in the building.

L- Lockdown McMillan said while lockdown procedure will bear resemblance to past lockdown methods, the ALICE method prioritizes barricading the doors before staff and students resort to hiding. “Mr. Smith wanted us to be a little more proactive so we are I- Inform going to end up doing is adding a A crucial point of the ALICE barricade to our lockdown, where method is for students and staff the doors will not only be locked members to be kept up-to-date on but the students and teachers will the whereabouts of hostile intrud-

C – Counter McMillan said that while the students will not be focusing on counter measures in their own drills, it will be discussed as an emergency measure if an in-school shooter scenario was to happen. “It’s not something that we’re emphasizing, but in the ALICE principles, counter measures are things like throwing books or whatever you can if a lockdown and barricade happen to be breached, as a last resort,” he said. “We’re not advocating counter measures whatsoever, but as a last resort for your safety and your security, you

E- Evacuation Evacuation was not included in Cabell County’s old procedure, McMillan said, causing students and staff to pigeonhole inside a classroom even when an opportunity for escape might present itself. “If someone were to enter a building in a particular area, students that were not in close vicinity to that area might evacuate the building,” he said. “There’s really no perfect plan for every possible scenario. What we are trying to get across is to give our students and staff as many options as possible.” Alexander said that the “inform” part of the procedure will help students and staff understand their evacuation options, although these may get complicated in schools with more than one floor. “We’ll be looking at each specific building to see if there’s anything we could provide to help them in a situation,” he said. “I think they relayed to us that at Virginia Tech that there was a college classroom

After the crisis drills Nov. 3-7, schools will periodically undertake more drills just like some of the other drills conducted periodically, Smith said. He said he hopes the entire county will feel completely comfortable with the procedure by the end of the year, so that next year students and staff will just be reminded, rather than retrained. Ultimately, he said, he wants students and parents to feel safe knowing there is a plan in place for the unlikely event of a hostile intruder. “That’s the thing with society, bad things do happen to good people, but you can’t live in abject fear all the time,” he said. “We have to be able to live freely. We need to teach our kids to be safe in a world that is sometimes unsafe.”

Above, Lions Kitty Kelly-Smoot and Tennyson Thornberry make apple butter along with president Jessica Burcham and others. Right, new Barboursville Lion’s Club inductees donned blindfolds during a meeting last September in order to experience a facet of blindness for themselves. Helping the blind is a large component of Lion’s Club community service.

Community service is heart of Barboursville Lions By Amanda Smythers For the past 72 years, the Barboursville Lions Club has strived to improve its community one project at a time, and it shows no sign of quitting any time soon. Founded on Dec. 18, 1942, the organization is based on the mutual efforts of service-minded individuals to join together and help those less fortunate, whether it be by providing coats to children or eye exams to the elderly. “The Lions Club is kind of a well-kept secret,” said Barboursville Lions Club President Steve Nash, a member since 1999. “We do fantastic things yet we don’t stand and pound our chest and say, ‘hey, look at us.’ When we do something for someone we don’t ask for recognition. We simply exist to help others.” The Barboursville Lions Club is just one piece of an international organization that has been serving others since 1917, when a young Chicago businessman organized the first Lions Club, eventually starting a fire that has still not died down. “What he wanted to do was give something back to the community,” Nash said. “So he and some other like-minded businessmen, and I emphasize the words like-minded because we still adhere to that to-

day, decided that they were going to form an organization and start doing some charitable work. And then it started spreading and it spread all across the United States until in 1923 it became international.” Two years after becoming international, Nash said, Lions Club members received a special gift when Helen Keller gave the keynote address at that year’s international conference. “She said, ‘I challenge you Lions to become champions of the blind,’ so we’re now known as knights of the blind,” he said. “We took up vision, low vision, those problems. The Lions International has taken that up and it carries through every club in the United States.” Holding true to their designation as knights of the blind, the Barboursville Lions Club spends a significant amount of time and money providing vision screenings to low income persons and buying glasses for those who need them. Their community service projects, however, extend far beyond that. “Vision is not the only thing that we do,” Nash said. “But that is what we champion.” Nash said the Barboursville Lions Club supports multiple local nonprofits, including a monthly donation to both the Facing Hunger Food Bank and Hospice House.

The iconic Glade Creek Grist Mill at Babcock State Park, a favorite of photographers from around the world, is now featured on a stamp issued by the United States Postal Service. On Sept. 29 in Danese, W.Va. the U.S. Postal Service issued the Priority Mail® stamp, priced at $5.75, in a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) pane of 10 stamps. The stamp went on sale to the public that same day. “Our staff at Babcock was aware the mill was being considered as a stamp image, and we’re delighted to learn it is a reality,” said Bab-

cock Supt. Clinton Cochran. “The postmaster in Fayetteville called and told us it was being issued, and we are honored. The stamp is beautiful.” Babcock State Park is located in Clifftop in Fayette County. The park’s most popular attraction is the grist mill. Cabins, campground, riding stables, hiking and fishing also are part of the park’s appeal. The park is open mid-April through October. A live webcam focused on the mill and showing peak fall foliage is online at www. babcocksp.com.

They also provide Christmas food baskets, multiple scholarships for Cabell Midland High School students, and have just started a hearing aid project to help provide low-cost hearing aids to locals in need. One of Nash’s favorite projects, however, is a Little League squad for children with disabilities, which is housed on the Lions Club Little League field. “We’ve had a league playing there all these years called the Challenger league,” he said. “Some come as far away as Portsmouth to participate in that. That’s the heart of Lions Club – we help anyone we possibly can.” Barboursville isn’t the only Lions Club in the area – there are also clubs in Milton, Lesage, Southeast Huntington, Downtown Huntington and Marshall University. This, Nash said, enables the Lions organization to have a great impact on Cabell County. “It’s not just a good Barboursville Lions Club,” he said. “We are surrounded by other good Lions Clubs and we try to do stuff together with them.” In addition to participating with other Lions Clubs in the area, the Barboursville Lions Club also organizes a Leo Club, a Lionaffiliated organization for serviceoriented youth. “Leo Club is a youth club,” said

Charlie Buzzard, a member since 2000. “They do the same type of things that the Lions do. They work on projects, they raise money and they do a lot of good service type work.” Like the Lions themselves, Buzzard said it is important that the Leos have a little fun, too. “They’ve created a calendar for the year,” Buzzard said. “They’re going to do things like going out to Beech Fork next spring and helping with the cleanup out there. They’re going to do a lot of good things, but they are also going to do some fun things.” In addition to maintaining the Leo Club and their normally scheduled projects, the Lions are recruiting heavy, recently inducting 17 members at once. “We are concerned,” Buzzard said. “At one time there was a nice Lions Club in Hurricane – today they don’t have one. The reason it folded was the members of the club got old and they didn’t recruit and then died off, and the next thing you know it wasn’t there.” Nash said the club accommodates all people who are committed

to serve. “We have grandmothers, grandfathers, lawyers, current school teachers, retired school teachers, insurance people, business owners, people from all walks of life,” he said. “We don’t look for someone who has a high financial stature to join the Lions Club, it’s their heart – if they have a true heart and want to really help people. We don’t come to promote our businesses, we come to help our communities.” Nash said he understands that time is hard to give, a reason he didn’t join the club much earlier. However, he said the time commitment is worth it based on the individual fulfillment each member receives. “As far as time, the only regret I have about joining Lion’s club is that I didn’t join 15 years earlier when I was first asked,” Nash said. “It’s just a fantastic organization to be a part of.” The Barboursville Lions Club meets at 6:30 p.m. the second and fourth Tuesday at the Barboursville Community Center.

Raze initiative launched in every W.Va. county For the upcoming 2014-2015 school year, the RAZE Teen Advisory Council (TAC) is introducing a new initiative focused on helping spread RAZE’s tobacco prevention message across West Virginia. The new initiative, called “Strive for 55,” aims to create a RAZE crew in all 55 counties of West Virginia by the end of the school year. Currently there are no RAZE Crews in Calhoun, Doddridge, Gilmer, Lincoln, Logan, Monroe and Summers Counties. TAC is asking every RAZE Crew to identify at least one school or organization within those counties without a RAZE Crew and tell them why they need to add a Crew to their community. The effort will include students writing letters, creating posters, setting up informational booths, making phone calls and doing whatever they can to spread

the message across West Virginia. “Many RAZE members know firsthand the cruel effects of tobacco on their family and friends,” said TAC President Jason Nichols. “It is important for us to come together to stand up to big tobacco and help continue the fight to make sure every West Virginian knows the truth about the negative effects of tobacco use.” Nichols said that once there is a new Crew is each county, the focus will be to grow the number of Crews in those counties with the fewest. “We are not going to stop recruiting new Crews and new members until we are able to make West Virginia tobacco free,” added Nicholas. In additional to the “Strive for 55” Campaign, RAZE is also introducing a new event to help RAZE Crews share their message

We always do it and we have a lot of fun.” Midland’s Katie Reidel was the first Lady Knight. She placed 14th

with a time of 23:02. After her, the Knights came through the line in one large group with the next five runners crossing the finish in the span of less than a minute.

The Cabell Standard

Midland boys soccer season ends in OT battle By Zach Cumberland zach@theputnamstandard.com

Coming off a win against St. Albans, the Cabell Midland boys soccer team marched into the sectional semi-finals against Spring Valley with high hopes. The Knights, however, fell in the second round of penalty kicks by the final of 3-2 on a chilly evening at Huntington High School. Midland (8-10-1) and Spring Valley played to a 2-2 draw in regulation. The game would have ended in a tie had it been a regular season matchup, but sectional playoffs are a win-or-go-home scenario. Two 10-minute overtime periods ensued after regulation to no avail. Then Midland and Spring Valley each sent out their top goal scorers in an effort to win and move on in penalty kicks. “During practice the day before we made a list and put the guys together,” said Cabell Midland coach Tyler Ellis. “The coaching staff came together on six or seven guys and we picked our top five.” Senior Ian Waddell led the charge in the penalty kicks shootout, scoring on Midland’s first attempt. Following Waddell, junior Justin Merritt, senior John Kuhn, senior Braiden Rowe and senior

The offense rolled up 415 total yards, 357 of them came on the ground. All-purpose performer Jacob Hendricks added 72 yards on seven carries. The defense answered the call all-night-long, as they held the prolific Spring Valley passing attack to just 126 yards. Quarterback Tyler Brown completed 11 of his 22 passes and tossed one TD. Midland held the Spring Valley ground game to just 30 yards on 35 carries. The Knights first score came on a 16-yard touchdown run by Hendricks with 6:26 to go in the first quarter. Then Childers scored on the first play of the second quarter to make it 14-0. “It was a hard fought game the first two quarters,” said Cabell Midland senior quarterback Coy Pettit. “Then we came out and we really took care of business.” Spring Valley did answer with a seven play, 53-yard drive which ended on a Skylar Ratcliff 2-yard TD run. After a missed two point conversion the Knights led 14-6 at the half. Midland scored on a 2-yard TD run by Caperton Humphrey to open

Jeremy Cooper all scored on penalty kick attempts. All five players for Spring Valley converted as well to end the first round at a stalemate. “The top five did real well,” Ellis said. “We picked the second five and decided that we really wanted the seniors to take the kicks, regardless of whether this junior or freshman is better than that senior, we wanted the seniors to have that opportunity.” The second set of penalty kicks ended on one kick from each team. Senior Jeremy Cooper fired the first ball for Midland, but was stopped by Spring Valley senior keeper Sam Hedrick. “We, of course, never thought we’d go into a second five [set of penalty kicks],” Ellis said. “But we made the decision it’s just going to be the seniors. The guys that have been with us for three or four years and that’s what we did and that’s what I’ll do every time.” Junior Joey McSweeney of Spring Valley followed with the next kick to seal the deal for the Timberwolves as a light mist fell and the wind whipped. Needless to say, it was an excruciating way to end the season for the Knights. Ellis said he didn’t want one of his sophomore or junior players to have to live with missing a penalty

the second-half. Then the Timberwolves answered when Spring Valley’s Brown pulled a Houdini, escaping the pass rush and lofting the ball up to Mason Brubeck in the corner of the end zone for a 27-yard TD. The score was 21-14 with 6:28 left in the third quarter. It was all Midland after that. Humphrey scored again from 22-yards out and then scored his third TD from 34-yards out in the fourth quarter to put Midland up for good at 35-14 with 8:06 to go. Pettit then hit Childers with a 48-yard TD strike over the middle to close out the scoring at 42-14. “In the third and fourth quarter we always come back,” said Cabell Midland senior offensive lineman Zach Postin. “We’re a second-half team and that’s when we strike back.” Midland will have a week off before traveling to play Brooke in the final regular season game on Nov. 7. Salmons said he’s proud of what the senior group has accomplished and he was very pleased with the win on senior night. “Anytime you win against rivalry type teams it’s great for the school and it’s great for everybody,” he said. “Spring Valley’s kids played hard and they were well coached as always. Our kids just did a great job in the secondhalf.”

They deserved it, so we gave them a shot,” he said. Ian Waddell and Ben Foster each scored in regulation for the Knights. Waddell kicked the ball out of mid-air in a pack of players

in front and found the back of the net which tied the game at one. Foster’s came off a free kick which went underneath a wall of players that Spring Valley had set up for the block. It gave Midland a 2-1 lead at the time. Midland had a 2-1 lead well into the second half before a controversial push was called on the Knights, which gave Spring Valley

the game-tying penalty kick with 13:38 remaining. “I think we won the first half, but they won the second half,” Ellis said. “We were constantly on our heels in the second half. They just beat us. I hate to say it. They’re just a good team. It was their day to win. I’m happy for them, but I hate it for our guys.”
