Board defers action on comprehensive plan By Laura McFarland News Editor
P
OWHATAN – The Powhatan County Board of Supervisors recently decided it still had work to do on updating the document that will set the county’s vision for growth for the foreseeable future. After a large number of community members turned up to weigh in on the update of the county’s long-range comprehensive plan at the board’s meeting on Monday, Feb. 25, the supervisors voted unanimously to defer action on it and take more time before adopting the plan. In a marathon meeting that lasted seven hours, a solid two hours of that time was dedicated to consideration of the comprehensive plan. That included a public hearing in which 32 people spoke and offered a variety of opinions. Two terms dominated much of the comments made during the public hearing: “affordable housing” and “high-density housing.” Those mentioning the former talked about the need for affordable hous-

ing in the county and many urged the supervisors to adopt the comprehensive plan. Many of those who mentioned “highdensity housing” were speaking in opposition to seeing that kind of growth in the county. Several of their comments appeared to be a reaction to changes suggested to the Future Land Use Map at the board’s Feb. 14 meeting. The proposed changes were to
the land use designations for specific parcels within the Courthouse Village and the Route 60 Corridor East special area. Within the Courthouse Village Special Area Plan, some changes were proposed to the area between the Historic Village and Plain View (between State Route 13 and U.S. Route 60). Changes would accommodate a mix of commercial, residential, and mixed-use development in
that area, similar to recommended maps forwarded by the planning commission in December 2017. The maps also proposed that additional areas be designated Commerce Center (CC) on the north side of U.S. Route 60 west of Plain View. Within the Route 60 East Special Area Plan, changes suggested converting a portion of a parcel north of Holly Hills from CC shown in the current draft to Village Residential. That change would impact 34.4 acres of the property. The most significant impact of these changes would be on the number of dwellings that would be allowed in those areas based on the new designations.
Board comments Given the large block of time dedicated to the comprehensive plan in the meeting, very little of it was filled by comments from the board. However, between the 32 public comments and the vote to defer, a few of the board members had their say. As he had at the Feb. 14 meeting, David see BOS, pg. 4

Walter turns grief to action By Laura McFarland News Editor
POWHATAN – Jaime Walter isn’t looking for a sweet victory; she is just fighting for other families who may one day be in her terrible position. On May 26, 2017, Walter’s life forever changed when her husband, Virginia State Police Special Agent Michael T. Walter, was shot in the line of duty and died several hours later. Those were the worst moments of her life. Her second worst day came on Oct. 11, 2018, when Walter heard Richmond Circuit Judge Beverly Snukals sentence her husband’s killer, Travis Ball, to 36 years in prison, taking into account a childhood his attorneys described as traumatic and impoverished. After giving a media interview, Walter of Powhatan County came to the decision she had to do something about the sentencing of those who kill a law enforcement officer. “I needed to get justice for future lawenforcement officers as I knew I could not change it for my husband, but I had to change it for other families to never have to go through this again,” she said. She stood by her word and the months see MURDER, pg. 5

Supervisors defer action on elimination of R-C zoning By Laura McFarland News Editor
P
OWHATAN – The ResidentialCommercial zoning district has received a temporary reprieve while the Powhatan County Board of Supervisors and county staff work to soften the blow of its elimination. When the board discussed the fate of Residential-Commercial (R-C) zoning at its meeting on Monday, Feb. 25, several seemed to come to the agreement that elimination was the way they would be going. But the sticking point in the decision making process was how to do away with the zoning district for the betterment of the county while doing right by the owners of the 509 parcels currently zoned R-C. The board heard several comments from the public earlier in the meeting and had a lengthy discussion amongst themselves about the issues with R-C. The issue has also been discussed over many hours during previous board meetings and by two special work groups the supervisors appointed to try to find solutions. For the past year, the board of supervisors and the planning commission have been discussing tools that can be used to better manage commercial growth and development within the R-C zoning district as citizens have been expressing concerns with the appearance and functionality of commercial growth taking place in that district. The supervisors ultimately voted 3-2 in favor of deferring the vote on the elimination of R-C zoning for 90 days to allow the board and county staff to work on possible solutions to the question of how to avoid too many adverse affects on R-C landowners. This is the second time the board has deferred the action for 90 days while it seeks to find a good solution to the problem. Chairwoman Angie Cabell, who represents District 3; Bill Melton, District 4, and Carson Tucker, District 5, voted to defer the issue. David Williams, District 1, and Larry Nordvig, District 2, were against deferring it. Planning director Andrew Pompei explained at the beginning of the discussion that the current plan if R-C zoning
is eliminated is to reclassify those 509 parcels. Generally properties would be reclassified based on their current use and their location within or outside of a platted subdivision, Pompei said. The most common reclassifications are Commerce Center (CC) or Agricultural (A10). With the 90-day deferral, unless the board can solve the issue earlier, the issue should come back for a vote on May 20.
Work group results Nordvig recently chaired a large workgroup charged with analyzing the impact of eliminating R-C, exploring alternatives and suggesting ideas to lessen any negative impact. He provided an executive summary that summarized some of the feedback of the work group members. The summary pointed out that it is improbable to imagine that dozens of unconnected developers working under by-right status, over a period of many years, will produce exactly the vision contained in the comprehensive plan. One thing that was clear even in the work groups was people seemed to agree landowners should be able to voluntarily downzone for free if they want. Regarding others, suggestions included overlay districts containing design limits; legal alternatives to by-right development such as conditional use permits; working with landowners to encourage development via the comp plan, or leave the front 500-foot parcel in commercial use while zoning the back parcel another category, using traffic management to control back parcel build out. “It became apparent that the group split into two camps. Property owners and those in the development community wish to keep the R-C designation. Citizen reps and planning officials see a need for change. The board will need to face the fundamental question, ‘Who will best bring into reality the comp plan vision for an attractive, rural-friendly community? Developers or the board?’ Nordvig wrote. Regarding lessening any negative impacts, group members “were almost unanimous in recommending the waiving of application fees for any subsequent re-zoning requests,” Nordvig
wrote. Also mentioned were a tax forgiveness policy; waiving fees, such as water/sewer hook-up, and establishing an appeals process to address reclassification issues. Nordvig noted that given the necessary parameters needed to develop a property against the size of some of the affected parcels, “the overall impact on property owners may be smaller than first supposed.” He also consulted two appraisers but was unable to accurately define the loss of value to R-C properties – a major issue raised by landowners – because it is dependent on too many other factors as well, he said.
Board discussion After Nordvig presented the report from the work group, Williams once again outlined all of the problems R-C can create. It removes review by the board and planning commission; limits the impact of requiring 15 percent open space on projects; doesn’t allow for public input; doesn’t allow for SMARTScale participation; doesn’t have right-of-way dedications, and leads to developments where the architectural standards are not compatible, he said. He specifically reviewed two projects involving by-right development – the one around CVS at Dorset Road and Route 60 and the one Luck Stone is developing at Stavemill Road and Route 60. Later in the meeting, Williams also talked about how linked the issues of R-C zoning and the comprehensive plan are. R-C is not represented in the comprehensive plan, so Williams said the plan shouldn’t be adopted until definitive action has been taken on the zoning issue. Tucker said the question he is stuck on is the effect on the property owners by eliminating the R-C zoning district. He said he is in favor of eliminating R-C but wanted to try to do it in a way that doesn’t damage the value of R-C properties in the county. Nordvig pointed out that those property owners who are downzoned will be paying much lower property taxes. Future costs could also be a way to help by waiving rezoning fees to those who are downzoned when they are ready to develop in the future. Those rezoning ap-
plications would go through the full process allowing review by the planning commission and the supervisors and be seen by the public. At a certain point, the supervisors appeared to be arguing in circles because Williams kept making the case for eliminating R-C while Tucker said he agreed; he only wanted to “soften the blow for the property owners” and make sure they had a plan in place and written down before eliminating it. But Williams felt they had enough of a framework to move forward. After more discussion, the board ultimately voted 3-2 in favor of deferring action for 90 days while the board and county staff come up with a concrete plan to help lessen the impact on R-C landowners. Seven people spoke during the public comment period about the R-C zoning district. Some of their opinions included: Pete Burruss talked about what he called as “fear mongering” in relation to R-C and how it was being used to affect opinion on the comprehensive plan. He also argued incorrect information and unrealistic expectations of development standards were being use to influence the argument to eliminate R-C, which he thought should be put aside or deferred. Elizabeth Greenfield with the Richmond Association of Realtors said the association had received calls from members concerned about the proposal regarding R-C zoning and its effect on property values and owners’ ability to sell or develop in the future. She also asked for a deferral to give more time for the issue. Jim Carver said the R-C work group was never tasked with reaching a consensus, only to examine the various aspect of the issue and provide deliverable suggestions to the board. He asked the board to accept the report from the work group and vote at the next meeting to eliminate R-C zoning. Don Rissmyer said R-C is not a zoning designation, it is a license to let developers do whatever they want. He feels it has no value at all and should be eliminated. He also made the point that he feels without making a decision on R-C, the board can’t move forward on the comp plan. Laura McFarland may be reached at Lmcfarland@powhatantoday.com.

focusing densities on Route 60 east, the courthouse area, and Route 711. The same vision is in the updated plan, he added. He said that the updated plan has significantly reduced areas of Village Residential (VR) and Village Center (VC) and increased the rural areas. The changes proposed on Feb. 14 would only increase those numbers again fractionally. Melton said he supported the deferral because it is the right thing to do. He also agreed with a comment made in the public hearing by planning commissioner Bill Cox that the board really didn’t address the Rural Enterprise Zone in most of their discussions. Carson Tucker, District 5, also supported the deferral but said the board has been listening to the citizens. He pointed out that even that night in the public

Williams, who represents District 1, took exception to changes being recommended to the comprehensive plan after it had already gone through months of meetings and been seen by members of the public at two open houses. He wanted to re-advertise the plan to give residents the chance to see changes. Williams made a motion to defer action on the comp plan, have a workshop and incorporate the comments of the public into the plan. He did not set a deadline on his deferral. “Our job is to get this right. There is not any artificial deadline. Our goal is to get it right,� he said. Bill Melton, District 4, said the current document, the 2010 long-range comprehensive plan, was designed to reduce sprawl by
hearing 16 speakers were against and 10 speakers were for diversity of housing. “We do listen to you and to them and the telephone calls and to the parking lot walkups. Because you don’t want diversity of housing or you don’t want a neighbor of that kind doesn’t mean yours is the only voice. If you do want diversity of housing, it doesn’t mean yours is the only voice. We do listen and we still have to make a decision despite the fact that we split almost 50-50 in some cases,� Tucker said.
A variety of opinions With 32 speakers coming to have their say in the public hearing on the comprehensive plan, a wide range of opinions were expressed. Some of those who spoke included: The comment period

got off to a rocky start when Pete Burruss tried to discuss Facebook comments he implied were made by Larry Nordvig, District 2, who said he refused to be attacked. Burruss also talked about the negative impact of the public being stirred up using fear of apartments or townhomes. Mac McGinty talked about needing more businesses rather than residences that will only be a drain on the resources, especially high-density housing. Nancy Alexander talked about the need for affordable housing in Powhatan. Working with the Coalition of Powhatan Churches, she has learned there are people who live from crisis to crisis. Sometimes a family is getting by when they are struck with an illness or a catastrophe. Powhatan seems to be becoming elitist and acting like it doesn’t want to deal with the housing problems of many who are doing the best they can, she said. Cody Frayser said he does not like the lack of transparency in recommending late changes. He showed a video he made in which he interviewed other residents who are opposed to high-density housing. Joey Paquette said the definition of high density varies by county because it just means a higher density than is envisioned for the majority of the county. Since the vast majority of the county is designated as rural, where usage is one residence per 10 acres, any-
thing more than that is higher density. There is a glaring issue of housing affordability in Powhatan, especially homes under $150,000. He also pointed out that the Feb. 14 meeting was the first time the comprehensive plan was discussed after the public open houses in January, making it a natural time for suggested changes to be brought up. Bill Cox pointed out the major change in the future land use map that is the new Rural Enterprise Zone. Despite this big change, it was not highlighted for citizen evaluation or discussed by the board. The board should hold another public house to discuss this new designation, he said. He said the board is taking a “coloring book� approach to planning its land use without assessing their impacts. He said that based on the size of the parcels of the changes proposed on Feb. 14 and their accompanying land use designations, it could represent up to 1,396 housing units being allowed by the plan. He mentioned the impact of that volume of housing on the county’s transportation, finances, and drains on service. Debra Green talked about seeing Chesterfield detrimentally affected by unchecked growth. She also said townhomes will not provide affordable housing as they are likely to be priced much higher than someone seeking affordable housing could afford.
Herbert Straughter talked about how living in an apartment gave him the opportunity to save so he could buy his own house in Powhatan County. He said there are people who work in Powhatan and want to live here too but can’t afford it. He urged the board to vote for the comprehensive plan. Mike Asip asked the board to vote in support of the current draft of the plan. He said it balances the voices of citizens who wish to preserve the county’s rural character and provide housing options for those who do not want or can’t afford to live on multiple acres. He talked about the need for diversity of housing that can accommodate people in all stages of their lives. Susanne Earnhardt said adding residential will do nothing but increase taxes. The county doesn’t have the water or sewage capacity, and adding more rooftops will only be a drain on Powhatan’s resources. Steve Mulherin talked about young professionals being used as an example of wanting affordable housing. He reminded the board of a meeting in February 2018 brought up by many that showed overwhelming opposition to a proposed low-income apartment complex. Many at the meeting said they worked hard to be able to afford to live in Powhatan and didn’t need or want a handout to do it. Laura McFarland may be reached at Lmcfarland@powhatantoday.com.

that followed were hectic. She began work with M. Wayne Huggins, former state police superintendent and executive director of the Virginia State Police Association, on Senate Bill No. 1501. Sen. Charles W. Carrico Sr., R-40, patroned the bill, which says that any person convicted of capital murder of a law-enforcement officer, and other certain public safety officials, who was 18 years of age of older at the time of offense shall be sentenced to no less than a mandatory minimum life in prison. The maximum punishment is the death penalty. Any time the bill was up for a discussion or a vote, Walter was there, except for one time she couldn’t get her shift covered at work. On that occasion she sent a statement to be read in her absence. She talked about losing her faith in the justice system with Ball’s sentencing and begged Virginia’s lawmakers to forget party politics and instead do what is right for first responders and their families. “If anything positive can come out of this horrific and devastating murder of my husband it would be a change in law to support our law enforcement officers who protect and serve us every day. It is now time that we protect and serve them,” she wrote in a statement that was read in her absence. She was joined in her fight by the widows of other state troopers – Michelle Dermyer, whose husband was fatally shot in March 2016, and Betty Walker, whose husband was shot in March 2013. In her fight, Walter said she took strength from the Powhatan community, the state police, the sheriff’s office, the
SECOND ANTIOCH BAPTIST CHURCH
Blackhawk Gym family and her co-workers, all of whom have been behind her every step of the way. She also drew strength from her memories with her husband of almost 16 years. She remembered his love for her and their three children, Austin, Mason and Addison; his service to his country as a United States Marine; his dedication to his job as a state trooper, and his patience and kindness working with young people in the local wrestling program he helped start. But when it came to actually speaking to the legislators, it was her passion for seeing this bill passed that gave her the words she needed. “I had to show my kids while the justice system failed us we were not going to allow it to fail another family,” Walter said. The bill passed the Senate in a 35-5 vote on Feb. 4 and then passed the House in a 93-5 vote on Feb. 20. Walter said she met with Governor Ralph Northam on Feb. 28 for an hour and a half and he agreed to sign the bill. Now they are setting up a public signing, she said. “It was good to meet with him yesterday and tell him my story face to face, looking him in the eye. And once the ink is dry, yes, it will make me feel better because going forward the most positive thing to come out of this (will be) for future law enforcement and first responders, fire marshals and deputies and to show society and, most importantly my children, that these criminals will be held accountable,” Water said the day after the meeting. Walter said healing is a long process and she takes each day as it comes. Some days she feels like she can handle things and others days she takes things minute by minute, just focusing on raising her children “to be good
kind thoughtful and humble productive adults like Mike and I wanted.” Carrico, himself a former state trooper, said he heard about Ball’s sentencing and thought it was an injustice. Then he saw an interview with Walter and realized how broken she was feeling. He looked into the state code and began meeting with Huggins and the state police association. “I wanted to make sure that when an individual is charged with this crime that they either spent the rest of their life in prison or they were put to death. Because anyone who is willing to go out and take the life of a police officer has no due regard of anyone’s life. They are put in harm’s way just to protect everyone from people like that,” Carrico said. Carrico said it was when the state troopers’ widows began to testify in front of the General Assembly about how they felt betrayed by the justice system and watching the effect their words had on the legislators that he realized the bill would likely succeed. Listening to them, he said he imagined his wife going through that situation if he had been killed on the job and thought about his son, who is a trooper now. “In listening to their stories and hearing how broken they were, there was no way I wasn’t going to fight to try to make this happen for them. No other family should be in that situation in the future. There’s got to be a clear message sent to anybody who is trying to get away from law enforcement that if they take this life, the Commonwealth of Virginia is going to take yours,” Carrico said. Sheriff Brad Nunnally said he definitely wants to see the bill become law. When the men and women of his department are protecting Powhatan and
are attacked, “not only is it an assault on the officer, it is also an assault on the community as a whole.” “I think that brings about a whole different level of importance and justifies the enhanced penalty. You are not just assaulting a law enforcement officer, you are assaulting someone who is representing the county and doing the county’s business,” he said. Nunnally said his immediate reaction to learning about Ball being sentence to 36 was disbelief. He was shocked the judge could find any mitigating factor that would justify him not receiving life in prison. He hates the idea of one of his officers being killed in the line of duty, but if it happened, he said he would want to know that “this heinous crime will be punished as such.” Laura McFarland may be reached at Lmcfarland@powhatantoday.com.

Seven-hour meeting draws citizen participation By Laura McFarland News Editor
T
o describe a seven-hour meeting of the Powhatan County Board of Supervisors with a decided lack of final decisions made on key topics as productive might seem strange. It certainly didn’t feel productive last week at about 1 a.m. when the meeting that started at 6 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 25, was finally drawing to a close. At that point nothing registers except tiredness and disbelief that the meeting really dragged on that long. Of course, it was always going to be a long meeting. When you have a jam-packed agenda that includes several presentations, recognitions, and controversial topics on which people want to have their say, that takes time. So what does a seven-hour marathon meeting get you? Citizen participation in droves. There were three main topics of discussion that drew large numbers of Powhatan County residents to speak that night. The first was discussion on the possible elimination of the Residential-Commercial (RC) zoning district. In all, seven people spoke on this topic either in support of keeping or eliminating the zoning district or delaying the decision. You also have to keep in mind the numerous other times this has come up in board meetings and the well-attended citizen work group meetings, where many also attended and voiced their opinions.
The comprehensive plan has drawn steady but mostly low key attention from the public for more than a year. What set residents off last week were changes suggested for the future land use map made at the Feb. 14 workshop of the board. Some people felt this was a last-minute effort to bring high density housing to the county, which is a topic that is always sure to draw the ire of many. This topic took about two hours of the seven-hour meeting, including a public hearing that saw 32 people sharing a range of opinions regarding the comprehensive plan. The third issue was the proposed Cartersville Solar project, which took up two public hearings on the agenda. Of the eight people who spoke during the first public hearing and the nine in the second, only one person – the landowner – was in support of the project (he spoke at both hearings). The rest spoke of the irreparable damage the project could do to one of the county’s key conservation areas. And it cannot be underestimated that the review of the solar farm cases didn’t even start until about 11 p.m., so all of those speakers sat through more than five hours of meeting just to have their say. And citizens were heard. After a good bit of discussion, the supervisors voted unanimously to defer the issue of the R-C zoning and 3-2 in favor of deferring action on the comprehensive plan. In the case of R-C, board members seemed to agree that the zoning district’s days are numbered. The real issue is how R-C property owners will be affected by its elimina-

Comp plan balances voices of county, should be adopted as soon as possible Dear Editor, The Powhatan Board of Supervisors should support the draft 2019 Comprehensive Plan. Despite those who claim otherwise, this plan actually balances the voices of citizens who wish to preserve our rural character and provide housing options in few selected areas for those who do not want or cannot afford to live on multi-acre residences. Beginning teachers, sheriff deputies, public servants, tradespeople, and younger citizens who work and wish to live in Powhatan may not be able to afford nor might they wish to own homes on 2 to 5 acres. Such housing options also would allow Powhatan senior citizens to age in place, rather than leave Powhatan County. Lower maintenance, more affordable housing options, in selected Village Center areas, should be available to allow people to live, work, and retire in Powhatan through their entire life cycle. It is not true that some vocal citizens opposing any higher-density housing represent the majority of Powhatan citizens. In fact, Powhatan citizens are actually evenly divided on the issues of housing options based upon the 2018 Powhatan National Citizens Survey. About half of the surveyed citizens rated “Variety of housing options” and “availability of affordable quality housing,” as “fair” and “poor” in Powhatan. Powhatan citizens are NOT all against diverse affordable housing options as claimed by some. There have been exaggerations of facts in false claims that Powhatan will look like Chesterfield in
20 years. Not true. All I have to say is “Just look at the map and read the plan!” The 2019 map actually INCREASES by tens of thousands of acres the Rural Preservation, Agricultural, and Rural Residential land uses from the 2010 Comp Plan. The map and charts actually delineate LESS acreage Village Center land use, where a variety of more dense housing options could be developed. Powhatan’s rural character – why many of us live and work here – will be preserved even better if the supervisors vote approval of the draft 2019 Comprehensive Plan. There will be no rush toward extensive accelerated development of Powhatan. Even with the unbridled development permitted by R-C zoning (which should be eliminated at the next supervisors meeting), we have not seen a significant reduction of all the “For Sale” signs along Route 60 over the past several years! Citizens will control this future development through planning commission and board of supervisor votes every step of the way. Some leaders and citizens have distorted discussion about this comprehensive plan, reducing it to a “No Apartments!” offensive, fear-mongering battle cry. This is not just about apartments, but housing options for a variety of citizens in selected areas of Powhatan as part of a greater plan that actually does more to preserve our rural character. Just look at the maps and read the plan!

tion and how to “soften the blow.” The board has given itself 90 days to try to find that solution – if there is one. With the comprehensive plan, it would be too simplistic to try to say everyone there was for or against seeing it passed. It would be more accurate to say that the comments showed there is still work to be done on the plan to make sure it is creating a vision for the county that people want. The board recognized that and deferred action but didn’t give itself a deadline. With the solar project cases, the board voted unanimously to deny an appeal on the planning commission’s decision to recommend denial of the project. When it was obvious things were going the same way in the conditional use permit public hearing, the solar company withdrew the application. Given the board comments, that is the only thing that kept the supervisors from voting down the project. I said something at the beginning of this column that didn’t represent the whole picture. In addition to the three specific cases I talked about, the board of supervisors’ seven-hour meeting included numerous informative presentations, several committee appointments and recognitions, and votes on six other resolutions with public hearings. All of these also took time and attention. All of these are a valuable part of the governing of Powhatan County. Laura McFarland may be reached at Lmcfarland@powhatantoday.com.

years old and Daniel has owned it for the last 12. It was founded in Chesterfield County, but five years ago, he had the opportunity to buy the business’ current property in Powhatan. Daniel said at the time his sales from Powhatan residents were second only to Chesterfield sales, so it made sense to move to a community that supported his business already. Daniel credited the dealership’s success to
competitive pricing and a great sales staff that fully supports customers throughout the buying process. “I think we have a great reputation for customer service and making it a hassle-free buying experience. Our pricing is probably the best in the U.S. We have people who come and buy from us from 10 and 15 states away,” he said. The reputation that brings customers into the dealership from far away is great, but Daniel said
it is the people of Powhatan who have really supported his business. “That is the No. 1 thing that has made us successful,” he said. Sales manager Steven Carpenter said 2018 was a fantastic year but also one that involved a great deal of hard work. There were plenty of long hours and weekends where they were drained, but all of their hard work paid off in the end, he said. “December was probably our best month ever – we sold 100 units. For

efficiency, cleanliness and modern setup. Carpenter echoed that sentiment, describing the roughly 150 stations on the assembly line where one person is responsible for each station and work on the bikes. The workers were so fast and professional that they were exceeding the daily goal when the American dealership representatives were there for the tour. The group also visited Hakone, a mountain-
ous town near Mount Fuji, and Takayama. Carpenter said he and Daniel went on a side trip to visit a Suzuki dealership near Tokyo just to watch the employees in action. In February, Daniel and his girlfriend were flown to New Zealand for a trip sponsored each year by Kawasaki for its top 20 dealerships. Laura McFarland may be reached at Lmcfarland@powhatantoday.com.

Future is bright for Powhatan track By Nick Vandeloecht Sports Editor

Powhatan Track and Field’s Arnell Jackson (from left), Shaniece Morris and Anthony Greenhow all qualified for and competed in this February’s indoor state track and field meet.
OWHATAN - At the beginning of the season, the Powhatan Track and Field coaches asked their athletes: What are your top three goals? Most of them said they wanted to set personal records. Some of them said they wanted to break school records. “And it was really cool to be able to see them actually accomplish that,” said head coach Chrissie Blevins. Powhatan’s athletes delivered a banner indoor track and field season, breaking personal records and setting new school records again and again. But the exclamation mark was penned by three of their athletes – junior Arnell Jackson, sophomore Anthony Greenhow and freshman Shaniece Mor-
ris – all competing in the Class 4 indoor state meet, with Jackson and Greenhow each placing fourth in the girls’ long jump and boys’ 55m dash, respectively. “Nobody really thought we were going to get to states,” Greenhow said. “We all three wanted to prove them wrong and improve every week, and that’s what we’ve been doing since I’ve been doing track.” “It takes dedication...,” Jackson said. “A lot of people didn’t think we were gonna make it or even make it to the finals.” Jackson has been competing in events for track and field since at least seventh grade. She spoke to being naturally good at her events, but her coach’s motivation helped her to push harder. “It was kind of nervous my first year making states,” Jackson said. “I didn’t resee TRACK, pg. 2B
Fanz earns ACC gold Nick Vandeloecht Sports Editor LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Individually, the outcomes of the 2019 Atlantic Coast Conference swimming championships weren’t what Powhatan High School alum Casey Fanz was hoping for. So when it came to that last race of the meet, the women’s 400 freestyle relay, the LouFANZ isville junior saw it as another chance to: one, give it her all – she had nothing to lose and she wasn’t defending anything... “and two…it’s for the girls,” Fanz said of her teammates. “Going into it, I was just excited to go race one more time…” …and, she added with a laugh, “we all knew we were getting dessert afterwards, so we were really excited just to swim fast and get it done.” They more than got it done. Fanz swam a 48.04 to help her University of Louisville Women’s Swimming relay team capture the gold in the ACC championships’ 400 free on Feb. 23. It’s the first gold medal of Fanz’s collegiate career, and it capped a meet that also saw her earn a silver medal as part of the 200 freestyle relay team. “It was just really exciting.

ball off to tall freshman teammate Kaleb Muminovic. The setup was picture-perfect. Muminovic went to the ground as he knocked Sloan’s assist into the net for a shining goal in the first half. Ultimately, it ended up being the only goal Powhatan would make against the defending state championship program in Wednesday’s scrimmage as Cosby won handily, scoring most of its goals against Powhatan’s
second group in the second half. But head coach Tim Cristian said his starting group, which was without injured junior Nate DeLong, really played well against the Titans. “It was really encouraging, so I’m pretty excited about what that means for our season,” Cristian said. “I saw some really good things, saw some areas of improvement from NICK VANDELOECHT/POWHATAN TODAY last year with some of the guys…I Powhatan freshman Parker Sloan (#5) see SOCCER pg. 2B

C&F BANK’S ATHLETE OF THE WEEK BASKETBALL ALL-STAR WHO: FAITH HENDERSON
904908-01
WHAT SHE DID: The Powhatan varsity girls basketball standout contributed a team-leading 19 points in the Indians’ final game of the season – a narrow 58-54 loss to Huguenot. Henderson, a freshman, emerged this year as a top scorer for her team, consistently netting double figures and leading her team-
player…she can drive, she can shoot from the outside,” Powhatan girls basketball head coach and Faith’s mom Kristy Henderson said in December. “Defensive-wise, she’s aggressive and she’s not afraid to get on the floor.
She usually gets in good position for rebounds.” Faith also made First Team All-Jefferson District and her teammate, fellow freshman Kayla Terry, received Honorable Mention. Faith, Terry and juniors Michala Taylor and Reese Vandell are all among Powhatan’s anticipated returners for the 2019-20 season.

won 14 of 21 classes, earned five second-places and secured all three overall championships on points from the seven shows. The points difference between Tortuga in first and the second-place horse, Always As You Wish (66.3 points in national and zone, 413 points in the state) was “significant,” Madison said, due to Tortuga winning consistently. Two of Tortuga’s class victories and one of his six championships came at the prestigious Upperville Colt & Horse Show – the oldest horse show in America. In each of those classes, Tortuga was the highest finisher out of 15 horses entered. In addition to Upperville, Tortuga was champion at the Rose Mount Farm Horse Show, the Lexington Spring Premiere, the Keswick Horse Show, the Loudoun Benefit and the Warrenton Horse Show. He was also reserve champion at the Lexington National Horse Show. “I wouldn’t say it’s unusual,” Madison said of Tortuga taking all three championships. “But a clean sweep is cool.” His banner season in 2018 followed up a good year in 2017 when he finished second in the state, third in the zone and fifth in the nation with limited showing. They attended more shows this year and upped the number of classes in which they competed from 10 in 2017 to 21 in 2018. Tortuga stands at 16.1 hands high,

ally think I was gonna make it, but coach kept motivating me to get there.” “One thing about Arnell with long jump is she really, really likes the event; she loves it. She wants to succeed in it,” said sprint and field event track Keilah Tyson, who is a long jumper herself. “One of the best things that she does is she listens. I can only show her one time and she can repeat it.” Jackson at the indoor state meet not only set a new school record with her measured jump of 17-01.25, but Tyson said she did even better that day when she jumped 18-04, which would’ve won her the meet. “But I think she got a little nervous, so she bounced back and put her hand back…so they had to measure her hand, which was a 16-04,” Tyson said. “I know she can win states outdoors. It’s just a matter of her continuing to keep that same intensity and… knowing that, ‘Hey, I missed a firstplace finish by a mistake,’ so I hope she wins the outdoor.” Greenhow, who transferred to Powhatan High School from Blessed Sacrament Huguenot, started running track in eighth grade with AAU, although he was taking on his first season of indoor competition this year. It was his first year running the 55m indoors after competing in the 100m dash in the outdoor season. He ran a school-record 6.58.

think this really showed some really good things for us.” From an observer’s standpoint, Powhatan appeared unfazed in going up against the powerhouse team. “They’ve been talking all week about how big and bad this Cosby team was,” Cristian said, “so I was really happy to see that it didn’t seem to faze ‘em.” Powhatan is looking to improve upon a 2018 season that concluded in the first round of the regional tournament on a hard-fought 3-2 loss to Dinwiddie. The Indians are returning DeLong, Aiden Willard, Harry Hayden, Josh McKee, keeper Austin Palmore and Zach Shelor. Willard and Palmore are going to be “tremendous” this season, Cristian said, and the Indians have talent in the back, including seniors Korey Brown and Mason Hubley. DeLong, when he’s healthy, will play at center back again with McKee.
Competing in Ladies Side Saddle The Ladies Side Saddle competitions in which Tortuga and Anderson competed at the horse shows consist of three classes. The third class consists of a course of eight jumps. The second class, called hunter hack, is judged 50 percent on flat work – which is walk, trot, canter both ways – and 50 percent on the horses jumping two jumps. The first class is judged 75 percent on the flatwork and 25 percent on “appointments,” or presentation and appearance. The horses are lined up head-to-tail in the order that the judg-
es would normally want to pin them. In following traditions from 100 years ago, “they stress manners because it’s a ladies’ course,” Tortuga’s owner Brenda Madison explained, “so if a horse is kicking up in line or something, he’s gonna get moved.” The riders must wear helmets. The habit has to be wool, and it has to be either black or navy blue in color. The riders must wear a vest that is also made of wool, and matches the habit in color. They also have to wear a long-sleeve shirt and a stock tie with a pin. The britches must also match
weighs at least 1300 pounds and is a Quarter Horse in bloodline. Madison said his movement and his cool head were keys to his championships. “He is a fabulous mover,” she said, noting that, since she’s had Anderson showing him, he’s been almost unbeatable in the flat class. “And he’s a little bit of a showman,” she said. “He gets in the ring, he likes to strut.” His rider Anderson, Madison said, was “fantastic,” and she “brings out the best in him.” “They turned into quite a team,” Madison said, praising Anderson’s cool head, her sense of feel and her approach to things. She said that Anderson is able to help the horse figure out what she wants in a way that he does what she wants on his own and with-
out being forced. While Anderson is expecting to give birth and won’t be competing this season, she and Madison are working with Anderson’s sister Pam Cibula as the rider for Tortuga. “We’re just gonna keep our fingers crossed and see what we can do this year,” Madison said. Tortuga goes to the trainer for practice – which features routine and repetition – but Madison said that they don’t overjump him when training. “It’s communicating with the horse…and giving him exercises to do to adapt to what we want from him,” Madison said. “That horse can sit for a couple of weeks doing nothing and his personality is such that you could load him up, take him to a show, he’d behave, but your better performance isn’t
“During the indoor season, the regular season, we worked hard,” Greenhow said. “And then the experience going to states, competing against a whole bunch of other athletes, it was pretty fun.” “With Anthony, he has a fire in him as a sophomore that I already know is going to ignite every single year he comes back,” Tyson said. “He wants it so bad.” If he checks into the process and stays committed, Tyson believes that Greenhow might win states in the outdoor 100 meter dash “right now, this year.” Along with Greenhow and Jackson, Morris competed at states in the 55m dash event. She ran 13th out of 18 competitors and was the event’s fastest freshman in the Class 4 division with a 7.57. “Going there as a freshman, I was really nervous to see my competition,” Morris said. “But I still pushed through it and it was overall a good experience.” Morris has been running track since sixth grade with Powhatan Middle School. Like her teammate Greenhow, Morris does not like to lose, Tyson said. “She’s a freshman, and I’ll be honest: I didn’t really coach her and try to change anything; I kind of let her go raw,” Tyson said. “The fact that she did it raw and still made it to states…that means so much. She’s gonna mature, and by her senior year – which I will be here for, I’m staying to see it through – she will
be state champion before she leaves, maybe a few state championships.” All three athletes stressed the merits of hard work in helping them reach the state competition, and Tyson hopes that what they achieved will inspire similar results from their teammates. “They actually saw what they were able to do and they all came back [to] outdoor with a vengeance, like ‘I want to do that, too,’” Tyson said. Blevins this spring is looking to see their athletes “knock a couple more of those school records off the board, which I don’t think is gonna be a problem.” “Now I think they’re more excited about outdoor than they’ve ever been just based on the results from indoor, Tyson said. “We have a lot of work to do, but I’m so ready.” Powhatan Track and Field also wants to take a majority of the team, and not just three people, to states this year. “I just hope we have more people make it to states and we can actually take a team, hopefully a bus.” Jackson said. “I’m looking forward to seeing how much more speed we will have,” Greenhow said. “Hopefully a lot more people go to states this year.” Morris added: “I just hope we improve as a whole…” “…and we start to build this outdoor and indoor track team back up to its potential,” Greenhow said.
Cristian said that “freshman sensation” Sloan and Willard “are gonna give people a lot to handle,” and that Muminovic is “doing great things.” Another player who really stood out for Cristian on Wednesday was sophomore Shelor, who played at defensive center-mid. “I think we have a very bright future,” Cristian said. “I think we’re gonna give some teams a run for their money.” Cristian expects his 2019 team to defend well – they’re going to be tough to break down, he said. “And we’re gonna sneak on people,” he added, pointing to the speed of players Willard and Sloan. “Our returning players bring a mindset that we can win every game that we play,” Cristian said, “and that’s pretty unusual for a team that hasn’t regularly competed in the regional tournament.” This year’s team will look to overcome a lack of depth compared to last season. And the young guys on the team, Cristian noted, will
have to learn quickly. “We need to figure out how we are going to score our goals this year,” he added, “as it’s difficult to replace such an effective #9 like Scotty Harrelson.” And the Indians won’t have an easy schedule. They’ll take on a five-game stretch in the middle of the season in which they’ll play state quarterfinalist and Region 4B opponent Midlothian, Western Albemarle, Charlottesville, defending Class 5 state champion Albemarle and Monticello. “Rolling through them with good play and a win or two will be great training and motivation leading into our Region 4B tournament,” assistant coach Paul Smartschan said. In order for this year to be a success, Cristian noted: “We have to go further than we did last year. We know that that wasn’t good enough.” He also added: “I think this group of boys has the opportunity to prove to our region that we will compete every year.”
the color of the habit. The boots must be dress boots. The horse must wear a breastplate, must have a three-fold girth and must be braided, mane and tail. The competitors must have the appropriate stirrup, “which is not the regular stirrup like people use to today,” Madison explained, and they must have a sandwich case with a flask. The flask must have tea or sherry in it. The case must have a diagonally cut sandwich, which is either turkey or chicken, on white bread with the crust cut off and wrapped in wax paper. gonna happen if you don’t do stuff in between, so we’re trying to peak at this point.” They worked with a trainer once a week last month and are going twice a week this month in their preparation for this upcoming season of shows. Dr. El Lenher, a friend of Madison’s who lives across the street and has a horse of her own, will also come over and ride Tortuga for Madison. “El goes to as many shows as she can with me as a groom,” Madison said. “She’s a great friend.” For Madison, winning the national, state and zone championships for the first time is “a dream come true.” “I feel very fortunate to have this horse and have had Jill as a rider to work with him,” she said. “I love that team.”
FANZ Continued from pg. 2B
each other,” Fanz said. “Our relay…it’s been fairly set for the whole season, it’s been the same four girls on it, so we’ve gotten really close and we all trust each other and know how we’re gonna finish and how we’re gonna start, so it was really just about going out there and doing it for the team, doing it for the girls behind the block and seeing what kind of place you can earn.” Fanz swam third behind lead-off leg and fellow junior Jillian Visscher, who swam a 48.73. Sophomore Arena Openysheva closed out the relay on a 48.18. Fanz said they wanted to go out and win that event for their teammate who swam the second leg: senior Mallory Comerford, who took her team all the way to first on a split of 46.68 to help the Cardinals win gold on a final team time of 3:11.63, compared to runner-up N.C. State’s final of 3:12.80. “Getting to race with Mallory, it’s a real privilege – not many people get to say they have been on a relay with an American recordholder and world champion, so every time I get to be on a relay with her is really exciting,” Fanz said. Fanz’s swimming career began at the age of 10 with the Powhatan Barracudas at the YMCA. Within the following couple of years, she switched over to the USA team of Poseidon Swimming, for whom she swam throughout high school. A lot of her swimming success and who she is today, she owes to her Poseidon Swimming head coach Ted Sallade, Fanz said. She qualified for the Olympic Trials in Omaha, Nebraska at the ages of 16 and 17 and won the 2016 National Club Swimming Association junior national championship. At the 2016 Olympic Trials, Fanz finished 21st out of 180 swimmers in the 50 freestyle. Fanz was named the 2016 All-Metro female swimmer of the year by the Times-Dispatch. As a Louisville swimmer, she medaled for the first time as a sophomore when she earned the bronze in the 50 freestyle at the ACC Championships. She and her teammates will look to carry the ACC gold momentum into the NCAAs in March, and she has one more year of eligibility following this season. “I just really want to make it count,” she said, “and contribute as much as I can to this awesome program.” Fanz now calls Louisville her home. Her younger sister, freshman Lindsey Fanz, competes on the school’s track and field and cross country teams, and their family moved to the Louisville area from Powhatan this past summer. One of the things Casey takes the most pride in is being a Lady Card. “It’s probably my biggest accomplishment, just being able to be on this team,” she said. “It’s been huge in my life – it’s been very impactful. The friends I’ve made are definitely lifelong friends, and I’m really grateful to [Cardinals coach Arthur Albiero] for giving me a chance to be on the team.”
