County recognizes Employee of the Year By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – When he left his office to head to the Powhatan County Employee of the Year luncheon held last week, nominee Rob Cerullo told a co-worker he didn’t think there was a chance he would be chosen. Cerullo, the county’s deputy commonwealth’s attorney, said he remembers saying to Darrell Elder, the office’s legal assistant, that the award would surely be given to someone who was more deserving or had been there longer than his two years on staff. Then his name was called as the Employee of the Year. “I was shocked and surprised but happy. It is just nice to be appreciated. You don’t do it for those reasons, but it is always nice when someone recognizes and notices that you are trying to do something out of the pale or something to try to help the community,” Cerullo said.

So it is nice to know that the people you work with county administrator Ted Voorhees on Oct. 30. appreciate everything you do.” This year, six worthy nominees were honored at the administrator Ted Voorhees said. “I think what that illustrates is that we are all one luncheon on Monday, Oct. 30 at the County Seat Restaurant.

OWHATAN – Powhatan County Public Schools is asking for public input on three possible options being considered for redistricting its elementary schools with the opening of a new middle school in 2018. Dr. Eric Jones, superintendent, sent out an email last week referencing three recommendations that a committee of staff and community members have been working on with a consultant firm to devise options for elementary redistricting beginning in

the 2018-2019 school year due to two elementary schools, Flat Rock and Powhatan, being at or near capacity. A detailed document breaking down the proposed changes in district lines on each of the options can be downloaded on the district’s homepage, www.powhatan.k12.va.us. Also on the homepage is a link to the quick survey people are asked to fill out after they review the three options to say which of the three they prefer. While most of the questions are multiple choice, one asks for additional comments. “It is geared primarily for parents see SURVEY, pg. 8 }

dent boards tend to be on the same page and that we can help each other and keep the community moving forward by working together.” The award is usually announced at a meeting of the Powhatan County Board of Supervisors, but Voorhees said he moved it to a weekday luncheon setting so more employees could attend to see their co-workers honored. Cerullo was nominated for employee of the year by Richard “Dickie” Cox, commonwealth’s attorney, and Elder. Cox said he felt that Cerullo has gone over and above his job as a prosecutor in the past year in efforts that improved both his office and law enforcement in Powhatan. Cerullo’s biggest accomplishment was spearheading the project to establish a multijurisdictional grand jury that is a resource not only in Powhatan but other local jurisdictions that can present cases to it. “I would like to take credit for something but I can’t. It was him contacting the attorney general, bringing the representative from the attorney general’s office out here to meet with us and other jurisdictions to get everything organized,” Cox said. “He did that in a relatively short period of time. From start to finish I bet you it was six months or less.” Cerullo also led the effort to bring a new case management system into the commonwealth’s attorney’s ofsee CERULLO, pg. 3 }

Local farm's role in creation of Gingerbread Stout highlighted By Laura McFarland News Editor

POWHATAN – Powhatan County farmer Bill Cox started a chain reaction in 2011 when he brought his locally grown ginger to Hardywood Park Craft Brewery, and the reverberations are still being felt today. Cox’s unannounced visit to the then-fledgling brewery was the first in a series of events that led to the development of the company’s wildly successful Gingerbread Stout, which now draws thousands every fall to the Richmond brewery from not only the region but all over Virginia and even out of state. The story of the beer’s development, including Cox’s role in it, was recently told in its entirety for the first time in an online feature story for

Food and Wine magazine. Cox said he and his wife India, who co-own Casselmonte Farm in Powhatan, are thrilled not only with the telling of the Ginger-

bread Stout’s origin story by a national magazine but also the way it highlights the importance of agriculture and locally sourced food.

“It is a wonderful story and it is just so much fun to be part of it. We flipped a coin and something happened,” he said. “It makes you wonder how some of these things come together all the time. But it is very pleasing to see the number of people who really like this beer and its variants and to know we are a part of it.” The story was well timed. A little over a week after it was published on Oct. 27, Hardywood had the first of seven consecutive Saturday release parties for this year’s Gingerbread Stout and its variants at the brewery's taprooms in Richmond and Charlottesville. Eric McKay, president and co-founder of Hardywood, said last week during a visit to Casselmonte Farm that he expected close to 80,000 visitors see GINGER, pg. 6 }

Powhatan Education Foundation awards grants Contributed Report The Powhatan Education Foundation has awarded innovative classroom grants totaling $14,697.24 to the staff members of Powhatan County Public Schools. The Powhatan Education Foundation was started in 2010 and is dedicated to enhancing the learning experience for students, teachers and staff of Powhatan County Public Schools by promoting innovative educational opportunities, recognizing outstanding achievements and developing community partnerships. The foundation started the Innovative Classroom grants in 2014 with grant awards up to $500. This year’s grants were funded up to $1,500. Powhatan County Public School employees can apply for the grant and parents/community members/students may also submit grant proposals in collaboration with a Powhatan County Public School employee. Grant awards are not intended to replace school board budget funding, but to enhance the county’s curricular goals and improve student achievement. “The teachers in Powhatan County Public Schools have a wealth of innovative ideas. They are constantly delivering results beyond the minimum requirements of the Standards of Learning, but budgets are limited,” Carolyn White, foundation president, said. “The Powhatan Education Foundation is continuously expanding the Classroom Innovation grants to help bring these teachers' exciting ideas to life.” This year, the foundation received 32 Innovative Classroom grant proposals, which were reviewed by foundation members. They selected grants that would

improve student achievement or engagement in the following ways: stimulates and motivates students to achieve academic excellence; engages students as active participants in the learning process; encourages specific improvement in student’s skills and attitudes; nurtures the student’s desire to learn and create; supports school and/or division goals as outlined in the school improvement plan or division six year plan, and addresses an underserved need. The following proposals were selected by the Powhatan Education Foundation to be funded: Growth Mindset Mentors project leaders, Crystal McArtan and Stephanie Howell, awarded $617.95; Making Virtual Reality a Reality - project leader, Kelly Ann Terry, awarded $1,260; Green Screen Studio Project - project leader, Katie Bates and Elaine Lonon, awarded $1,143.28; Outdoor Classroom: Making It a Usable Space! - project leader, Andrea Adkins, awarded $1,000; Classroom in the Courtyard - project leader, Regina Revels, awarded $1,000; Aquaponics Take 2 - project leader, Renee Mayo and Christina Lindsey, awarded $419.59; Game of Drones - project leader, Gillian Lambert, awarded $919.99; Air in Motion - project leader, Dawn Monson, awarded $585.43; BREAKOUT Powhatan project leader, Christine Phaup, awarded $750; "Bits" and Pieces of Coding - project leader, Jane Brown, awarded $1,000; Classroom in the Courtyard

– project leader, Amy McManus and Christine Stegner, awarded $1,000; PHS Makerspace 2.0: Where Innovation Gains STEAM - project leader, Melissa Glanden, awarded $1,128; No Child Left Behind Culture - project leader, Jose Reyes Lopez and Rae Shrewsberry, awarded $1,500; Carnival Across the Curricula - project leader, Diana Erazo and Robin Finney, awarded $1,500; Integrating Science, Math and Technology with Outdoor Weather Stations - project leaders, Elizabeth Kirk and Barbara Adcock, awarded $873. Pocahontas Middle School Spanish teacher Jose Reyes stated, “Thanks to the support and generosity of the Powhatan Education Foundation, more than 1,600 middle and high school students will be able to attend a cultural production by The Latin Ballet of Virginia. This event, which was designed to expose students to diverse cultural activities, would not have been possible without an Innovative Classroom grant. It will provide our students an opportunity to visually experience concepts that we teach on a daily basis.” Dr. Eric Jones, division superintendent, said, “PCPS is very thankful for the efforts of the Powhatan Education Foundation to support innovative instructional projects in our classrooms. These 15 grants will serve as a catalyst for all of our teachers to take risks and try new strategies to create deeper learning opportunities for our students.” The Powhatan County School Board will recognize the project leaders for being selected at its meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 14.

The War Memorial Roundtable for all Veterans will welcome filmmaker Melissa Terese Young as the special guest speaker when it meets at 7 p.m. today, Nov. 8 at the War Memorial Cultural Arts and Community Center, 2375 Skaggs Road. Young is the film producer and director for “Vietnam War Miracle,” a film aimed at honoring the men and women who bravely served our country in Vietnam, recognizing their untold stories, and continuing to pay tribute to those that serve today. “Vietnam War Miracle” is an inspiring story of a soldier who sustained a traumatic brain injury when he was hit by shrapnel from a grenade in the Vietnam War in 1969. Donald P. Mason should have died. Instead, by some heroic efforts on the part of his fellow platoon soldiers, he was miraculously rescued. He then fell under the care of a gifted neurosurgeon, Dr. Harold F. Young, who ultimately saved his life. It took 41 years for Mason, along with his wife Donna, to piece together the full story of his rescue, reunite with the fellow soldiers who played a major role in his survival, and meet Young. Mason lived on to selflessly touch the lives of many and has spent the past 40 plus years of his life fostering 46 “failure to thrive” babies, establishing churches, volunteering for the Red Cross, fire department, Vietnam Veterans Association, and mental health facilities. It is an extraordinary heartfelt story of courage, a

testament to humanity, and in the end, a reunion of healing for all Vietnam veterans who have lived a hero’s journey. Melissa Terese Young is the daughter of Dr. Harold F. Young. She received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts in 1994. Her first job in TV production began straight out of college as a production assistant at “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.” She quickly was promoted as a music coordinator for the show and later moved on to "Access Hollywood" as a Music segment producer. Having a love for telling a story, Melissa Young dabbled in side projects for years and became a finalist in HOB's “Project Greenlight” with her first venture into short film “The Pea Soup Caper.” In 2001, she left television to get married and give birth to two amazing boys, Isa and Massimo, who are her joy. In 2012, she experienced a life changing moment when she physically healed a back injury through the pranayama yogic practice of breathwork. This lifechanging moment inspired her to immerse herself in the study of various holistic practices, including meditation, Craniosacral, Reiki, respiratory therapies, Human Design, and South American plant medicines. Melissa Young never thought she’d go back into any type of production but was touched by a newspaper article about her dad, a doctor in Vietnam who had saved the life of a man with a brain injury but did not find out until see VIETNAM, pg. 10 }

Food pantry seeks donations for Thanksgiving meals Contributed Report The Powhatan Food Pantry is accepting donations for its Thanksgiving Complete Meal program to provide those in the community with a traditional holiday meal who may not otherwise be able to have one. The program serves about 300 people each month through the food pantry, so the need is great. The food pantry has a complete list of items it is asking to be donated, preferably with the entire meal provided. On the list is one 40-ounce can of yams or sweet potatoes; one 13-ounce box of mashed potatoes; one 16-ounce can of cranberry sauce; two 15-ounce cans of corn; two 15-ounce cans of green vegetables; two 10-ounce cans of gravy; two 6-ounce packages of stuffing mix; one box of hot chocolate; one small box or jar of ice tea mix

or tea bags, and one complete family desert item. To ensure that every family gets the same identical meal packages, the food pantry is asking people to include all of the items in double bags (for strength) and mark each bag “Complete” so that the volunteers know every item is in the bag. If it is not complete, leave it unmarked. Donations of $10 Food Lion gift cards or cash to purchase additional food are also appreciated. Make checks payable to the Powhatan Food Pantry and send them to Theresa Fields, treasurer, 1520 Swiftwood Drive, Powhatan VA 23139. Drop off items at the food pantry, 2500 Batterson Road, from 10 a.m. to noon on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday. Contact Patsy Goodwyn at 804-598-4464 or pggoodwyn@verizon. net.

Local groups plan events to recognize Veterans Day

eople wanting to take a little time out of their schedules to pay tribute to the men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces will have several opportunities to do so this weekend. Different Veterans Day events will be held over three days and cover a wide range of formats to honor local veterans. With all of the events, veterans are invited to attend. On Friday, Nov. 10, Powhatan Elementary School will hold its Veterans Day program at 9:15 a.m. in the school cafeteria/stage area. The schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fifth-graders will perform along with the Powhatan Middle School band members. There will be a speak-

fice that digitizes its records, Cox said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We needed to go from paper files to digitized records and he took that bull by the horn and got that all done. We are still learning and we are still incorporating, but he did that. That is something you have to do on top of everything else you are doing,â&#x20AC;? Cox said. The old way of filing was based on a card catalogue system and keeping paper files, which takes up time and space, Cerullo said. For the past year, the office has been working with the new system, called Justice Matters, and as of Jan. 1, 2018, it will officially go live. At that point, every felony file that comes into the office will be digitized. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are trying to get the office to be a modern day, top of the line, commonwealthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office,â&#x20AC;? Cerullo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just because we are only four people, just because we are small, doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be as good as or better than any office in the state. That is what we are trying to do.â&#x20AC;? Elder said it is an honor and a joy to work with Cerullo because he is a great guy, a great family man, passionate about what he does, fun to be around and shows that he really cares. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I see him take phone calls from citizens and go over and beyond to resolve their issue that may have much to do with his actual job,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He will get

In the description of Cerullo read at the luncheon, he was also lauded for the positive relationships he establishes with victims and witnesses; training deputies on changes in the law or when he sees the need to address problem areas, â&#x20AC;&#x153;which results in more successful prosecutions and a better working relationship with the law enforcement communityâ&#x20AC;?; participating in many community events and organizations, and speaking to civic groups to share crime prevention ideas.

Because the library operates with limited staff these qualities are crucial to keep the library running smoothly. Donna Skeens, civil clerk for the Powhatan County Sheriff’s Office. Skeens has worked for Powhatan County for more than 30 years and is constantly looking for more efficient ways to process civil papers, inmate sentences and billing and is always quick to offer help and assistance to anyone she can. She can be counted on to be at work every day with a smile and cheerful comments. Skeens uses an inmate search engine so when inmates are being held by other jurisdictions, Powhatan is only billed a percentage and not the full bill. Because of this effort, June was the lowest bill the county has seen from Piedmont Regional Jail in years. She has also assisted in creating informational forms for the defendants sentenced to serve time. This aids in their understanding of the process and helps in decision making when choosing weekend or work release, which also saves Powhatan County fees on each inmate.

Bridgforth is willing to do so much more that what his job description warrants. He was asked to sell

Powhatan County Public Library presented a special screening of “Alice’s Ordinary People,” a documentary film about a heroine of the civil rights movement, Alice Tregay, on Oct. 6. Fifty-five people attended the event. Filmmaker Craig Dudnick was on hand to introduce the film and answered audience questions afterward. Members of the Powhatan County chapter of the NAACP and the Powhatan County Sheriff’s Office were in attendance. Several audience members mentioned that they enjoyed the film. They also appreciated that the library served as the forum, opening up a dialogue to discuss important topics.

over the next seven weeks. In addition to the original Gingerbread Stout, the brewery will hold releases for its Bourbon Barrel Gingerbread Stout (GBS), Rum Barrel GBS, Applewood Brandy GBS, Christmas Morning, Rye Whisky Barrel GBS, Kentucky Christmas Morning and Double Barrel GBS. “Our hope is that we will continue to draw. We have a lot of visitors from pretty far outside of Richmond and outside Virginia as well that will come to town for these events. We hope we can make it as fun as possible for visitors and hope we can get more people to fall in love with the region,” McKay said. Cox said he and his wife always attend the release party for the Gingerbread Stout to talk to people about the ginger they grow and how Hardywood follows through on its commitment to using local products. On Tuesday, Oct. 31, the Coxes also hosted a group of Hardywood employees at Casselmonte for a tour of the farm and to see the ginger that is being grown there. McKay and Hardywood brew master and co-founder Patrick Murtaugh attended, along with Kate Lee, director of operations and quality, and Ben Petty, sales manager. “Kate is a food scientist. She is our director of quality assurance. For her, a big part of what she is interested in is learning about the ingredients we use from grain to glass or from root to glass.

Top left, Bill Cox, brings out ginger he and his wife India grow at Casselmonte Farm in Powhatan to show to employees of Hardywood Park Craft Brewery, which uses the ginger in its Gingerbread Stout. Visitors to the farm, shown top right, were Kate Lee, Patrick Murtaugh and Ben Petty. The purpose of the visit was to give employees a closer look at how a key ingredient is grown.

beer and to meet Bill and India,” McKay said. “Ben runs our sales team. Their job is largely to tell the story behind each of our beers. So for him to have some firsthand experience visiting with local farmers that are growing an integral ingredient in one of our beers is really helpful for better telling that story.” Cox was thrilled with the group’s enthusiasm got learning about the ginger grown at Casselmonte. He showed them how the ginger is harvested and cleaned so it begins to resemble the product they know. Their interest in the crop, especially at this time of year, was fitting since that is, after all, what started the story in the first place.

Making something new In fall 2011, Cox said he saw a story about Hardywood in the Richmond Times-Dispatch and was intrigued by the brewers’ desire to use local ingredients. “They listed some of the products they liked. One of them was ginger,” he said. “I said, ‘Well I have ginger and I need to sell it so I am going to go see these folks.’” Cox showed up unannounced at the brewery about a month after it opened, McKay recalled. At the time, the small staff of McKay, Murtaugh and head brewer Brian Nelson were putting in 100 hour weeks. The three men were finishing up a shift of brewing and getting ready to open up the taproom. At the time, the taproom was about 200 square feet and they could only give away free samples of beer but not yet legally sell it. “When Bill came in, I don’t even think we had a phone system in the brewery, so we had a lot of visitors who would just show up at the door,” McKay said. “Bill was one of the more interesting ones because he was holding stalks of this ginger and immediately while we were pretty exhausted from the week’s work, our curiosity was certainly sparked by this farmer that had just shown up with on our doorstep.” At the time, the men still associated ginger as it pertains to beer with summertime offerings since it can be used as an ingredient to add that pleasant crisp finish to the beer, similar to ginger ale, he said. But about a week later, they were introduced to the wildflower honey produced by Bearer Farms in Louisa County. At the same time, they were about to start planning a winter holiday beer. When they were home brewers, McKay and Murtaugh usually brewed a strong vanilla porter every winter that was a hit among their friends. Then it dawned on McKay that if they incorporated Cox’s Hawaiian white ginger and the wildflower honey, it could potentially come together really well to form a gingerbread stout. “There weren’t any other gingerbread stouts on the market at the time so we were kind of going down unexplored territory. We had an idea in our heads of what this beer should taste like but ultimately we were creating the idea from scratch,” McKay said. “A lot of recipes you can base loosely on home brew recipes you can find in books, but this was an approach that had really never been done before.” Nelson and Murtaugh tried a few batches and played around with different ways to integrate ginger into the beer and “ultimately came upon this perfect ratio and this perfect blend that we just fell in love with and has quickly become just a core part of the holiday tradition in the Richmond and beyond,” McKay said. “That combination of flavors really shines in liquid form. I think because it had never really been executed in the past and people are so excited about tasting a

beer that really has these flavors that make people feel Christmas in liquid form – that is exciting enough that lots of people have shown up,” he said.

Organic growth The first year Hardywood made the Gingerbread Stout, the brewery used about 40 pounds of ginger from Casselmonte Farm, McKay said. This year, he expects to buy about 500 pounds from Cox and more than 500 pounds from other farmers in the region, some of whom Cox helped the brewery find to meet their supply needs. The ginger will be combined with several thousand pounds of honey to help meet the growing demand for the Gingerbread Stout. McKay said he hopes the brewery keeps evolving at its current rate, constantly scaling up but also having organic growth. He said they hope to curate the growth of the beer carefully so that hopefully the appreciation for the original Gingerbread Stout can start to grow as Hardywood begins selling beer in new markets. “Last year we brewed maybe 5 percent more than the year prior and this year we will be able to brew about 10 percent more than last year. And we are operating at capacity,” he said. People sometimes ask why Hardywood doesn’t just “open the faucet and actually produce enough to meet demand,” McKay said. It has not been a matter of not wanting to; they have been constrained in their production abilities. “It is a really difficult and expensive beer to brew. We are committed to using local ginger. If at some point that becomes a limiting factor, we are not going to dismiss the use of local ginger. That is a core part of the story for us,” he said. Meanwhile, Casselmonte is also trying to scaled up naturally. Cox said he hopes to someday be able to produce between 2,000 and 3,000 pounds of ginger, but for now they are carefully monitoring how fast they grow. In the meantime, he appreciates the need for Hardywood to work with other local farmers. “You can’t have this valuable of a product to the brewery based on one farm. It’s too risky. Mother Nature will mess with that in a heartbeat,” Cox said. “The business side says they are growing. Just trying to keep up with them is hard. There is no threat to us, so let’s get some other farmers involved.” And while the relationship that has developed with Hardywood was pure happenstance, Casselmonte Farm’s relationship supplying agricultural products to seven other alcohol-based businesses has been much more deliberate. In addition to ginger, Cox said he has grown Carolina Candy Roaster Squash and Bradford Watermelon for some of those businesses. “As all of the breweries, cideries, meaderies and distilleries have opened up it offers brand new markets for local folks who can know the owners of a small operation and have a personal relationship with them,” he said. “It is just a rapidly expanding market that we have taken advantage of and is sitting there as an opportunity for a lot of small farms, whether you are growing pumpkins or grapes. There are so many products that they use.” A link to the Food and Wine article can be found on Casselmonte Farm’s Facebook page. For more information on the farm, visit www.casselmontefarm.com.

Hometown win good for the soul The heroes we don’t know By Laura McFarland News Editor

ouston needed a win, and last week we saw it happen. Anyone who has read this column with any regularity knows that I am not a sports fan. I don’t watch sports, rarely read about them, and even more seldom will you find me talking about them. But in the last few weeks, my hometown of Houston, Texas, watched its Major League Baseball team, the Astros, prepare for and then compete in the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. And last week, the Astros won it all in Game 7. So why would a non-sports-watching person who can’t quote you batting averages, discuss the pitching rotation or accurately argue whether a call really was a strike instead of a ball care about who won the World Series? Because even when you leave your hometown, it doesn’t leave you, and that can especially be true with sports teams. My dad died a few weeks after I celebrated my 7th birthday, so I don’t have many memories of him. But my mom said he was an avid Astros fan who listened to every game of the season on the radio. Anyone who knows baseball knows that means a heck of a lot of games. While part of me honestly has doubts about whether they are watching ESPN in Heaven, I like to

think my dad would have been over the moon if he were still alive. We didn’t have season tickets, but we did attend games, first at the Astrodome and then at Minute Maid Park. I grew up hearing names like Jeff Bagwell, Craig Biggio, Nolan Ryan and Ken Caminiti. The clearest memories are associated with games as a teenager since I was older. While I could appreciate the game, it was more the excitement and revelry of the collective experience that stands out to me over any one particular play, whether it was the songs that got everyone singing along (my favorites were “We Will Rock You” and “Take Me Out to the Ball Game”), being part of the wave, the pure excitement and noise of an Astros home run or the awesome hot dogs. To top it all off, when pitcher Charlie Morton got the final Dodgers batter in a ground out to win the game and I saw all the people jumping with joy on TV (not the Dodgers, of course), part of me just thought, “Houston needs this injection of hope.” With so many people still dealing with the devastation of the flooding brought by Hurricane Harvey, having their hometown team win its first championship since joining the major leagues in 1962 probably offered many of them a much-needed respite from the reality of everyday life.

ike most Americans, I was unacquainted with the name Welles Crowther when I first heard it last week. While flipping through the channels, I stopped on a Boston College football game and noticed that almost everyone in the stands was wearing a red bandana. I stayed on the channel hoping the announcers would mention the obvious unified fashion statement and quickly learned those red handkerchiefs symbolized much more than just a garment. I learned a story that I’m sure I cannot relay as well as Tom Rinaldi does in his book, “The Red Bandana,” or the subtle dignity that ESPN accomplished with their short peace on the 24-year-old former Boston College lacrosse player. But, it’s a story worth retelling, and, hopefully, a story worth hearing and remembering. It’s hard to locate anyone of age who doesn’t remember where they were on September 11, 2001. Welles Crowther found himself on the 104th floor of the South Tower of the World Trade Center. The 24-year-old equities trader was unaware that the next minutes of his life would be his last; and also unaware of the legacy he would leave. As a Boston College lacrosse player, Crowther was known for wearing a bright red bandana, an accessory he began wearing as a 6-year old when his father presented him with what become his landmark identifier. Crowther joined the Nyack, New York, Fire Department as a volunteer at age 16, and later attended Boston College and played on the school’s lacrosse team, always recognizable by the red bandana. After graduation in 1999, Crowther took a job in New York and was at his desk when the second plane slammed into the South Tower, stranding a group of desperate survivors, many badly injured. Crowther appeared to lead them to the stairs and eventual safety on the 40th floor where working elevators completed their evacuation. When Crowther handed off the group to firefighters on the 60th floor, he turned and headed back up the stairs. He returned and assisted others who were injured or stranded, directing them to the only working staircase in the building. That’s what he was doing when the tower collapsed at 9:59 a.m. Crowther’s body was recovered days after the attack lying beside uniformed firefighters, but his parents knew nothing of his heroic last moments. As his mother read a newspaper story recounting the stories of survivors as they told of a man who appeared from nowhere and saved their lives … and wearing a red bandana. His mother immediately knew it was her son. She confirmed what her heart told her was true by contacting the survivors in the story and showing them photos of her son. They immediately identified him as their mysterious savior. Since his death, red bandanas have shown up across the globe, have been worn by Olympic athletes, and each year, worn by thousands as they compete in the Red Bandana 5K. Add to that the more than 50,000 who wore or waved handkerchiefs at that football game last week, and the legacy of Welles Crowther and the dozen individuals he saved in that burning tower lives on. At the end of the ESPN piece, the narrator asks, “What would you do in the last hour of your life?” Who knows the answer to that question, but I have a hunch that Welles Crowther had a good idea as he picked up a fire helmet and began doing something he’d done all of his life — helping others. I’ll never look at a red bandana quite the same.

SURVEY Continued from pg. 1

PHOTOS BY LAURA McFARLAND

Scottville welcomes trick-or-treaters

in the school district but anyone can take it. This could impact the community as a whole, so the more input we receive the better,” Jones said. While there isn’t a specific timeframe listed on the survey, results will be gathered throughout the month and brought back to the committee before more formal recommendations are brought to the Powhatan County School Board in December, Jones said. “We may hold a public hearing so community members can speak directly to the school board,” Jones said. “Then if all goes well – which is a big if – we would be able to approve those new lines in January so families that are affected by changing boundary lines would know well in advance.”

Schools at capacity

Trunk or treat fun at the Fairgrounds Tru

Redistricting and when to do it has been a topic under discussion for awhile, especially in relation to the new middle school opening for the 2018-2019 school year. Since part of the sixth grade is housed at Pocahontas Elementary, when the sixth-graders are moved to the new middle school, that will leave available classroom space. Meanwhile, moving the fifth grade down to the three elementary schools had created an issue of space at Flat Rock and Powhatan Elementary schools, Jones said. Currently Flat Rock and Powhatan Elementary schools are near capacity, according to the realignment committee option packet. As of Sept. 27, Flat Rock’s enrollment was 682 students in a school with a capacity for 760 students (90 percent capacity), while Powhatan Elementary had 575 students and a capacity for 575 students (100 percent capacity). In comparison, Pocahontas Elementary can hold 850 students but only had 549 elementary age students enrolled as of Sept. 27. That puts it at 65 percent of capacity if you only take in the students through the fifth grade. It does not include the sixthgraders currently taking classes there. Considering those numbers and likely future growth in the county, the redistricting study looked for ways to align enrollment at each elementary school to have more balanced capacity; create a level of capacity at Flat Rock to handle anticipated growth in eastern Powhataan, and position the county tto more efficiently use exiisting elementary capacity tto extend the time frame bbefore a new elementary sschool is needed. The three options were nnarrowed down from five cchoices originally presenteed to the committee by K&C Associated, a consulK ttant firm that is working on tthe project, Jones said. The ccommittee members rejjected two of the original ooptions but tweaked two oothers and accepted a third as it was to put out to the community. The three options vary widely in their approaches, but the end goal is always to reduce enrollment at Flat Rock and Powhatan Elementary schools and increase the number of students at Pocahontas Elementary School, Jones said.

While Powhatan hasn’t gone through a redistricting since Flat Rock Elementary School was built, Jones said he has been through redistricting in other divisions. They can become contentious, but it usually depends on the amount of changes that are occurring, he added. “Where we are fortunate in Powhatan is that all three of our elementary schools are outstanding schools, they are all fully accredited, they all have very high performance and great staff,” he said. “We are not asking anybody to move to a school that may be looked at as lesser or not as good as others because they are all outstanding schools.” Jones also pointed out that all of the elementary students will be together in middle school and high school since there is only one of each in Powhatan, meaning changing an elementary school now won’t change which high school they attend in the future, as with larger districts.

Option I The first option presented by the committee has 95 students leaving Powhatan Elementary and 59 students leaving Flat Rock Elementary to attend Pocahontas. The affected students from Powhatan Elementary are mainly on the south side of Anderson Highway from the Cumberland county line down to where Ballsville and Old Buckingham roads meet. There is also a small pocket of 17 students centered around Lockin Road that would be impacted. The 59 students originally at Flat Rock would come from slightly extending Pocahontas’ eastern district line in the area between Anderson Highway and Huguenot Trail. Option I would put Flat Rock at 79 percent capacity, Pocahontas at 84 percent capacity and Powhatan at 81 percent capacity. Jones said the resulting capacity numbers for each option were similar because the goal was to have Pocahontas with a higher capacity and more room to increase enrollment at the two schools servicing parts of the county seeing more steady growth. “We looked at trying to draw in natural boundaries and to not separate neighborhoods and that type of thing. That was taken into account. But particularly Options I and II were chosen for a couple of reasons. One was because the least number of students would be impacted and change schools as a result of those plans,” he said. “Also, transportation weighed in in terms of what neighborhoods and rerouting those neighborhoods made the most sense from an efficiency standpoint in transportation.”

Option II Option II involves a little more shuffling of students. The plan has 63 students leaving Flat Rock, with 31 going to Powhatan and 32 going to Pocahontas. Another 126 students would leave Powhatan and go to Pocahontas. Option II would put Flat Rock at 79 percent capacity, Pocahontas at 85 percent capacity and Powhatan at 81 percent capacity. In this option, Pocahontas’ boundary would ex-

tend below Anderson Highway starting just west of Old Tavern Road and going all the way down to the county’s southern border, resulting in the move of 126 students. The 32 students from Flat Rock would come from extending the eastern border of Pocahontas but not as far as in Option I. The 31 students leaving Flat Rock to go to Powhatan would come by extending the latter’s eastern district line in the area from Anderson Highway to near where Rocky Ford and Genito roads meet.

Option III The recommendation that would result in the most shuffling of students is Option III, which has 64 students leaving Flat Rock and 98 leaving Pocahontas to go to Powhatan. In addition, 258 would leave Powhatan to go to Pocahontas. Option III would put Flat Rock at 78 percent capacity, Pocahontas at 85 percent capacity and Powhatan at 80 percent capacity. With this option, Pocahontas’ area would encompass everything south of Anderson Highway from roughly the area where it intersects Old Buckingham Road all the way to the Cumberland County line, resulting in a move of 258 students from Powhatan. Meanwhile, Powhatan Elementary’s eastern boundary line would expand into Flat Rock territory to the east. It would also stretch north of Anderson Highway on either side of the current district line between Pocahontas and Flat Rock, garnering another 162 students for Powhatan Elementary. The committee acknowledged that Option III brings the most change, so there would certainly be many students who would be moving as a result of that, Jones said. “The committee felt strongly that they needed to present a wide range of options for community input,” Jones said. “That is why Option III is certainly more drastic in terms of redrawing lines. There was some thought by the committee that there was some benefit to having more students moving and that just small pockets of students wouldn’t be impacted.” Option III would also likely provide the most long-term relief of not having to go through this process in the near future, he said. Chris Gwaltney, director of transportation, serves on the committee and her department vetted each of the options and weighed in on them, Jones said. Some of the tweaks made to two of K&C’s original options were a result of transportation needs. It could require the hiring of a small number of additional bus drivers and using additional buses. In looking at the consultant’s original recommendations, committee members did not see any breakdowns of socioeconomic or racial data before they made their recommendations, Jones said, However, the committee has asked for that information to be brought to them along with the survey results at the next meeting, which will likely be in late November or early December.

Powhatan’s field hockey team celebrates following the team’s 1-0 win over Warhill on Nov. 2 in the Region 4B championship game. Hanna Hathaway (8) scored the only goal of the match, while Gatlin Snyder (00) anchored an unflinching defense that withstood an aggressive Lions offense.

Powhatan field hockey wins region for first time By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

owhatan’s Hanna Hathaway was in the right place at the right time on Nov. 2 at Powhatan High School. The younger of the two Hathaway sisters on the Indians field hockey team had worked her way to the left side of the Warhill goal during the Region 4B final’s third minute of play. Teammate Calie Rehme passed the ball across the goal mouth, right to Hathaway’s stick. Almost like a one-timer in ice hockey,

Hathaway deposited it in the goal as soon as it hit her stick. “Calie Rehme always sends really, really good through balls,” Hathaway said. “We always find a way to tap it in. It’s all teamwork.” Ahead by one goal, the Indians turned to its defense to protect that lead for the remaining 57 minutes of play. And, Powhatan’s defense did just that. Gatlin Snyder and the Indians defensive unit stopped Warhill time after time after time and rode Hathaway’s goal to the region championship, the first in the program’s history. “This group (of seniors) came in as

freshman and have worked so hard over the last four years,” field hockey coach Steph Brooks said. “They deserve this more than anyone. They believed and I believed in them and it happened. They played really hard. They’re pretty awesome, to be able to have the record that we have, you can’t get much better than that.” In the region final, Powhatan’s faced an aggressive Lions offense that kept peppering the Indians with shots on net. Following Hathaway’s goal in the third minute, the next eight scoring chances were all from Warhill. But, Snyder made three saves in that sequence from the sixth minute through

the 20th minute of play. Defenders such as Kylie Maiolo also contributed heavily, breaking up most of the eight corners that the Lions earned in that span of time before Warhill could even take a shot on goal. The Indians were able to reverse the field after these big defensive stands to have two chances on corners of their own in the 22nd minute. Danielle Bigham put a shot on net, but it went wide and out of bounds. Powhatan’s Michala Taylor put a shot on net in the 24th minute and dished a pass to Ella Thomas in the 26th minute, see INDIANS, pg. 4B}

Knights hold off Warriors in regular season finale By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

Blessed Sacrament Huguenot’s Dion Butler (3) rushed for a 23-yard touchdown during the 29-22 win over Richmond Christian on Nov. 3.

Just before halftime at Blessed Sacrament Huguenot, Anthony Greenhow of the Knights answered the lone Richmond Christian score of the first half with an electrifying 90-yard kickoff return for a score. It seemed as though the Knights would be on cruise control, up by two scores at the time and dominating the Warriors on both sides of the ball, and could celebrate Senior Night stress-free. But, the stress mounted in the second half as Richmond Christian’s offense woke up and closed the gap and put significant pressure on the Knights. However, Blessed Sacrament Huguenot’s defense was able to hold off Rich-

mond Christian just long enough to take home a regular-season finale 29-22 win on Nov. 3. “I think we played pretty well at times,” Knights coach Chuck Robinson said. “I think we were inconsistent at times. We knew they are a hard-fought team. They were playing a big game for their season. They’ve had some ups and downs and we needed to match that intensity. At times we did, at times, we didn’t.” Throughout the first half, Blessed Sacrament Huguenot’s Colby Johnson was running at will through the Warriors defense, racking up over 50 yards on the ground on one of the early drives. Johnson punched it in from 2-yards see KNIGHTS, pg. 3B}

Powhatan’s Jacob Taylor was a force for the Indians on the ground in the 28-20 win over Albemarle on Oct. 27.

Both touchdowns were incredibly crucial as the first one tied the game at 14-14 and the second one gave Powhatan a 21-14 lead.

Taylor ran hard all night long and was able to showcase the progress he’s made throughout the season, such as coach Woodson noting that he was lowering his pads more often prior to contact.

Indians comeback falls short against Midlothian By Billy Fellin Sports Editor

t all came down to one point for the Powhatan Indians on Nov. 2. Powhatan had sprung to life after falling behind two sets to the Midlothian Trojans in the Region 4B quarterfinal at Midlothian, but had fought through a tough set three to step back from the brink of elimination. Then, the Indians battled again through the fourth set, at one point leading the Trojans by four points and needing just one more point to force a fifth set. But, it wasn’t meant to be as Midlothian went on a 6-2 run to take the fifth set 27-25 and win the match in four sets. “It’s hard to play the way they played,” coach Amber Foos said. “The set that was hard to win was the third set. It was very hard, especially after 19 (in the first set) and 16 (in the second set.) It’s very hard to do what they did. For them to come back and win the third set and be in the lead in the fourth set, it’s disappointing to see us be one point

away from going to set five. That fifth set, I don’t know who would have won. The momentum shift of putting another loss in (Midlothian’s) pocket might have been a game-changer. We might have been the ones (advancing.) I told them it was a life lesson, learning what one point means.” Midlothian handled the Indians in the first set 25-19 and the second 25-16, seemingly setting the stage for an easy three-set sweep as the Trojans administered to Powhatan earlier this season. But, despite being down 8-3 at one point in the third set, Powhatan fought back. The Indians started to close the gap thanks to adjustments against the Midlothian block by Powhatan hitters such as Sierra Ellison and Jordan Davis. “They made adjustments to the big block,” Foos said. “They made adjustments that allowed them to come back and win (set three).” Several Midlothian mistakes also aided the Indians cause and what was once a five-point gap shrunk to just a couple points. After a kill by Abby Nee and an error

from the Trojans, Powhatan tied the set at 22. Two kills by Davis two points later gave the Indians their first lead of the entire third set at 24-23. Midlothian knotted it again at 24-24, but Ellison added a kill followed by a Midlothian error, sealing the third set, and some momentum, for the Indians at 26-24. The two teams went back and forth through the first 11 combined points of the fourth set before the Indians were able to put some distance on the Trojans. But, Midlothian answered and closed that gap to eventually take the lead at 13-12. The see-saw battle continued until Ellison notched a point at 18-17, which started a rally for the Indians once again. Errors from Midlothian and kills from Rachel Mueller spurred the Indians to set-point at 24-20. Needing just one point from there on to force a decisive fifth set, the Indians couldn’t muster it. Midlothian got a kill followed by three consecutive Powhatan errors, which brought the score to 24-24.

The Trojans then closed it out, scoring three of the final four collective points to sink the Indians’ hopes. “For them to play clean for almost the entire set and to blow it in the last (few points)…I’m just frustrated,” Foos said. “I don’t know what to say. It was very hard for them to do what they just did. One point ended our season. It’s just frustrating. I watched the (win in the fourth set) fall out of my hands.” Nee had 39 assists, 14 digs, nine kills and two aces, while Ellison had 11 kills and eight digs. Maddie Turner added 19 digs and three kills. Powhatan had advanced to play Midlothian after demolishing Eastern View at Powhatan on Oct. 31. The Indians took down the Cyclones 25-6, 25-15, 25-8. While the Indians season has ended, Nee will be the lone senior to leave the team, so Foos will have a roster that has been hardened by a tough playoff loss. “I’m losing one (senior),” she said. “It’s a big one, but I think we’ll be OK next year. I hope they’ll learn from this experience for next year and see what is at stake and what’s on the line.”

Taylor goes over 200 yards, but Powhatan falls to Orange By Cameron Ross

C ontributing W riter for e D aily Progress

ORANGE — Powhatan’s football team did not go out of the 2017 season without a fight. Against the Orange Hornets on Nov. 3, a game that seemed out of hand early got incrementally more tedious as the time ticked away in the fourth quarter. A 42-14 Hornets’ lead 1:12 into the second half had them believing the playoffs were a shoo-in if all went well. The Indians were on their heels, and Orange (5-5, 3-5 Jefferson District) didn’t even know it. Three second-half Powhatan touchdowns had the Hornets reeling and clinging to an eight-point lead with 2:08 remaining. With the ball in its possession, a nearly lost fumble and an overshot snap had it clinching. Give Powhatan (3-7, 3-4 Jefferson District) timeouts and take away Orange running back Jaylen Alexander, and this

all-important season finale for the Hornets could’ve read mightily different on the script. Orange’s Darius Minor (two defensive interceptions, three touchdowns) was a major factor for Orange as they defeated Powhatan 49-41. The Hornets’ quarterback and running back pair — Kenyon Carter and Alexander — built off of their early lead every time they touched the football. The two racked up three scores in the first half to assist in the rout. Alexander finished with 156 rushing yards, with two touchdowns. Carter passed for 244 yards and three touchdowns. Powhatan’s last drive of the first half served as a good indicator of its night. Its 18-play, red-zone encroaching drive, featuring six first downs — two on fourth — ended in quarterback Noah Dowdy being intercepted just outside the end zone. In other words, just short.

stuck to its game plan for the duration. Led by running back Jacob Taylor, the Indians filed down the Orange defensive front with every painstakingly tough run. Taylor finished with 271 rush yards and three touchdowns. Dowdy accounted for three touch-

downs for the Indians, throwing a 5-yard touchdown pass to Jared Somerville and ran scores in from 20 yards both times. The Indians season ended and will graduate a handful of seniors, but will return a youthful core that gained a lot of experience this season.

Powhatan JV football wins second district title in a row Sports Editor

owhatan’s junior varsity football team traveled up to Louisa on Nov. 4 with a repeat on their minds. The Indians defeated Western Albemarle last year for the Jefferson District crown, and the trip to take on the Lions was one that they hoped would reap the same reward as when the Warriors visited Powhatan last season.

out to make it 7-0. After the initial score, it would be a while before the next points of the game as the two defenses locked in on the opposing offenses and converting on third or fourth down was a hard accomplishment to come by. Past the mid-way point of the second quarter, Blessed Sacrament Huguenot quarterback Tyler Lockhart hit Johnson for a 28-yard touchdown pass, but it was called back due to a holding penalty. Penalties littered the field throughout the entire game, raining down on both teams. The Knights bounced back on the next play, however, as Dion Butler ran it in from 23-yards out for a 14-0 lead. Richmond Christian wasted no time in getting its first points on the

Thanks to solid defense and special teams play, Powhatan did just that, defeating Louisa 18-16 to win the district title for the second year in a row. “(Louisa) was a team that we had lost to earlier in the season in another close game,” Indians junior varsity head coach Dan Grabill said. “We knew it was going to be a tough one. A couple plays came in our favor and it really came down to the wire. We made a few more plays than they did.” The first quarter was

scoreless on the rainy and dreary day in Louisa. Powhatan recovered a fumble on a punt to set the team up with a prime opportunity for a score. The Indians did just that with a touchdown pass in the second quarter and led 6-0. The Lions answered soon thereafter, scoring a touchdown and converting a two-point conversion to make it 8-6. But, Powhatan responded just before halftime with a 69-yard run to the end

zone to make it 12-6. Powhatan started the third quarter off as it ended the second quarter with another touchdown to make it 18-8. Louisa was nearing the end zone near the end of the third quarter, but Powhatan’s defense held the Lions in a big defensive stand and took over on downs. The Lions added another score midway through the fourth quarter and a two-point conversion to make it 18-16, but Pow-

hatan was able to hold them the rest of the game to secure the win. “You’ve got to give credit to all the kids,” Grabill said. “Our quarterback, Lance Fleming, really stepped up. We had some big plays from our receivers, like Jason Carroll and Jay Harris. It was a good team win.” Grabill said that late in the game, the Indians punted and pinned Louisa down at their 1 yard line. “Gotta give credit to our punter,” he said. “It helps

when they have to go 99 yards instead of a shorter field. You have to give credit where credit is due and our punter and the punt team did a great job to pin them deep.” These future varsity Indians are already making an impact on the football program as a whole. “We’ve got a lot of good kids,” Grabill said. “It’s cool to see the impact that we have on the kids. We learn from some of the best in coach Woodson and their staff. A lot of credit goes to them too.”

board as quarterback Antonio Jones ran for 74 yards and a touchdown on the second play of the ensuing drive. Tony Reid ran it in on a fake extra point for a two-point conversion to make it 14-8. But, then Greenhow electrified the stadium with his 90-yard kickoff return to put the Knights ahead 22-8. Greenhow had two other kickoff returns of over 50 yards in the game as well. After the second half Senior Night festivities, the Knights couldn’t make any positive gains on its first drive, but Richmond Christian marched right down the field to run it in from 8 yards out from Kevin Venable to make it 22-14 after the two-point conversion failed. Then, both offenses sputtered as rain began to fall on the field and the defenses stood tall once again. In the fourth quarter,

Johnson burst out for a 42-yard pass play and looked as if he was going all the way to a touchdown, but was caught from behind by a Warriors defender, and Johnson went down hard and would come out of the game due to injury. “Colby, for me, is the ultimate team guy,” Robinson said. “He’s a guy who has stepped in for any position. He’ll play defensive line, he’ll play kicker, would play wherever you want. When you see a guy like Colby (go down), who is an absolute rock of the team, that’s really bittersweet. It’s a pretty down moment for me when a guy like that goes down.” Two plays later, Lockhart completed an 8-yard pass to Raymond Avery to widen the Knights’ lead to 29-14. Richmond Christian once again put the pressure on the Knights as they took just five plays

to score again and completed the two-point conversion to make the score 29-22. But, time was running short and two big runs by Butler sealed the game for the Knights. Throughout the game, Robinson said that he had confidence in his defensive unit to keep the Knights’ lead intact. “I have ultimate faith in the schemes our defensive coordinator comes

up with,” he said. “I think we play a hard and aggressive defense, especially with the way our big three inside of Luke (Freudenthal), Peyton (Mulligan) and Manny (Murillo) are playing. We’re getting a lot of stuff done.” Robinson said that he was happy with how his seniors performed in their last game on their home field. “I told the guys you

couldn’t go without them,” he said. “I have eight seniors who stayed and who have battled their tails off to do a lot of things for us. I’m as proud of these guys, I owe them this program, and they’re stewards of future success.” The Knights will travel to Roanoke Catholic, whom they met two games ago, in the first round of the VISAA playoffs on Nov. 10.

Roundup: Powhatan Habitat golf tournament a success By Billy Fellin

CROSS COUNTRY

The Mill Quarter Plantation Golf Club was the site of the 15th annual Powhatan Habitat for Humanity golf tournament on Sept. 22 and was a big success for the organization and the golfers that participated. There were 88 players that participated in the tournament and 29 sponsors for the event, including The Rotary Club of Powhatan taking up the title sponsorship role. Powhatan Habitat for Humanity Executive Director Tim Bowring reported that the total gross income of the event was $20,798, which is a 20 percent increase from the 2016 event. There was also a raffle held during the event and 25 percent of the sales of the raffle tickets were donated to Jamie Walter, the widow of Special Agent Michael Walter. The event was held in collaboration with the Powhatan County Sheriff’s Office, which was on hand throughout the day at Mill Quarter. The four-man team of Tommy Basham, Cameron Sgavicchio, Daryl Johnson and Eric Stowers won the event with a score of 56.

Powhatan senior Lindsey Fanz qualified for the Class 4 state cross country meet for the fourth straight season after she finished the Belvedere Plantation Course in 21:12 on Nov. 2. Overall, Fanz finished 11th and was the fifth individual not on the top three teams that advanced to the Class 4 meet. Caileigh Dintino finished 17th overall at the regional meet, finishing in 22:03. She was the seventh overall individual that wasn’t on one of the top three teams. Brooke Dippold finished 28th with a 22:58, Ashley Trevillian was 45th with a 23:54, Alexis Elzey was 52nd with a 24:42, Alexis Atkinson was 53rd with a 24:53. Ashley Van Buskirk rounded out the Indians contingent, finished 65th with a 26:13. Aubrey Wingeart of King George won the meet with a time of 19:30. As a team, Powhatan finished seventh out of 10 teams with 149 points. Midlothian was the region champion with 51 points, followed by King George and Louisa. On the boys side, Cooper Schardt was the top In-

but Thomas shot just wide of the mark. After halftime, Snyder continued to be tested by the Lions offense. She had saves and crucial clears in the 32nd and 34th minute to keep Warhill at bay. “This is the first real game I’ve had to do a whole lot in, so I’m really tired,” Snyder said. “It was really nice to pull together as a team and as a unit and show what I can do and what has gotten me to the next level.” Snyder saved shots in the 37th and 39th minutes as well and saw a shot from Warhill go wide in the 38th minute. Powhatan’s offense was able to give the defense a crucial break in the 44th minute when Rehme put a shot on net, but was wide. The Indians earned a corner in the 48th minute, but a bouncy inbounds pass erased the chance the Indians had. From the 55th minute through to the end of the game, the Lions threw everything they had at the Indians defense, with three corners awarded to Warhill. But, Powhatan repelled it all and the clock expired to cement the Indians’ title. “Our defense is tough,” Brooks said. “Gatlin did a great job. She probably touched the ball more today than she ever has before. Warhill came out tough. It was hard, but these seniors have a never-give-up attitude. It was stressful, but we were confident. After we scored, they put a lot of pressure on us. I can’t say enough for Kylie Maiolo, Gatlin Snyder and Katie Corbitt. Those three played amazing.”

REGION SEMIS In the 19th minute

against Lafayette in the region semifinals, Powhatan earned a penalty stroke after the Rams goalie smothered the ball during a scramble in front of the net. Senior Kayla Hathaway stepped up in front of the net as she is the player the Indians turn to for stroke opportunities. Hathaway felt that she was not alone when she got the ball in front of the Lafayette netminder prior to her chance. “My grandma passed away last Thursday and she was going to come today,” she said. “I just felt her with me. I felt like I was supposed to do that.” Hathaway’s goal was the culmination of several chances for the Indians in the first half. Powhatan had corners in the seventh, 16th, 18th, and 19th minutes with several shots on net. Following the goal, Powhatan continued to be aggressive, especially in the second half as they pursued an insurance goal. Thomas, Rehme, both Hathaways and Taylor all had chances throughout the game for a second goal, but the shots were either off the mark or saved by the Rams keeper. While Snyder saved a few shots sent her way, the Indians defense kept Lafayette away from many meaningful chances on the goal. Katlyn Hicks played a huge role from her midfield position, as her clearing passes following Lafayette fouls flipped field position several times and kept Powhatan’s offense in the Rams defensive zone more often than not. Lafayette made a lastgasp chance in the 59th minute against the Indians defense, but the unit held off the Rams and punched the Indians ticket to the region final and an assured state tournament berth.

John Cavedo was 29th overall with an 18:32, followed by Colton Vosburg in 30th with an 18:35 and Will Paxton was 39th with an 18:46. Jackson Tester was 57th with a 19:22, Davis Tester was 60th with a 19:40 and Logan Allen

finished 71st with a 20:30. Max Etka of Midlothian was the region champion with a 16:36. Powhatan finished eighth as a team out of 12 teams with 176 points, just one point behind Eastern View for seventh. The Trojans completed the sweep of the region titles with 39 points in the boys team race. Louisa was second and Courtland was third.

Fanz will compete at The Meadows on Nov. 10 in the Class 4 state meet.

YOUTH FOOTBALL In the Chesterfield Quarterback League Juniors playoffs, the Powhatan Tribe faced off against Spring Run in the opening round at Midlothian Middle School on Nov. 4. The Tribe’s season came to an end after a 32-0

final. In the Seniors bracket, the Flat Rock Warriors defeated the Powhatan Tribe 32-0 at Tomahawk Middle School. The Warriors advance to play against Robious on Nov. 11 at Old Clover Hill High School at noon in the next round. Billy Fellin may be reached at wfellin@powhatantoday.com or on Twitter at @BillyFellin.

REGION QUARTERS In the region playoff opener, Powhatan’s offense ran wild on the Patriots in a dominant effort. Anna Causey scored the first goal in the 11th minute and the flood gates opened up soon after that as the Indians put up eight goals in the first half. Bigham and Taylor each scored three goals for Powhatan, with Hanna and Kayla Hathaway each contributing two goals. Causey also scored two goals. Reagan Thomas, Natalie Bryant, Rehme and Maiolo rounded out the Indians score sheet with one goal each.

STATE TOURNEY Powhatan hosted Smithfield in the opening round of the Class 4 state tournament at River City Sportsplex on Nov. 7. The state tournament is unchartered waters for the Indians team, but both the players and Brooks are excited for the opportunity. “This is what I’ve been dreaming of ever since I knew what field hockey way,” Kayla Hathaway said of the state berth. “I just never thought we could make it to states.” “Everyone wanted to win,” Brooks said. “We’ve been sending group texts, pictures, pictures of what we thought the trophy looked like...we’ve been dreaming about this for four years. It’s hard to believe given where we started.” If Powhatan defeated Smithfield on Nov. 7, the Indians would play the winner of Great Bridge and Warhill on Nov. 10 at the National Field Hockey Training Center in Virginia Beach at noon. The Class 4 state championship game is Nov. 11 in Virginia Beach. Courtland, Heritage, Eastern View and Chancellor are the other teams in the bracket.
