The Liberty Eagles have a new basketball coach. With the departure of Rob Brown to Yancey Walker Aurora High School to become the Assistant Principle and Athletic Director, the Eagles found themselves with some big shoes to fill. Brown coached Liberty boys’ basketball for six successful seasons, posting a 120-48 record, and five seasons of 20 wins or more.

To replace Brown, the Eagles found a coach who is no stranger to 20-win seasons, and high pressure situations, former Head Coach of the Missouri State University-West Plains Grizzlies, Yancey Walker.

Walker coached eight seasons with the Grizzlies, winning See Coach on Page 4

Retirement Party - It was a bittersweet evening as faculty, staff, students, friends and family gathered to wish Dr. Walt Belcher happiness in his retirement on Tuesday, May 17. The halls of the Liberty Middle School were lined with art work from students wishing Dr. Belcher luck in his retirement and reflecting on their memories of having him as principal.

After seventeen years at the Mtn. View-Birch Tree School District, Dr. Belcher retired at the end of this school year.

“I have truly been blessed to work with such wonderful students, dedicated staff and a supportive community. Thank you for seventeen great years,” Dr. Belcher stated.

Final appearance of the ‘Last Stage to Matador’ The Journey Stagecoach will make one last public appearance this year at the Old Time Music, Ozark Heritage Festival in West Plains, Mo. before being gifted to Silver Dollar City in Branson, Mo. The two-day annual event in downtown West Plains, Mo., celebrates Ozarks music, tradition, and culture. Admission to all festival events is free Dubbed “Last Stage to Matador,” Hamby and a crew of six are traveling a former stage route to deliver pen pal mail from students at Fairview

and West Plains Elementary schools partnered with elementary schools in Clarendon and Matador, TX. The stagecoach was originally used to ferry mail. “This trip will be special because it will be the last one,” said Hamby.

The Journey Stagecoach was originally built in 1880 in New Hampshire. It was shipped West and worked until its retirement in 1905. Silver Dollar City of Branson purchased the stagecoach in 1959, along with the Vanderbilt family stagecoach

and Henry Ford’s steam train.

The stagecoaches and train became the Silver Dollar Line.

The Hamby family of Caulfield purchased the stagecoach in 1999 and began the history-making project called the Stagecoach Journey. Founders and owners of the Stagecoach Journey are Rick and Bev Hamby, who host the award-winning radio program “Just for Kids Radio Roundup” and “Great Moments in American History,” broadcast by the Ozark

Radio Network. The Journey stagecoach was a hit at Silver Dollar City’s First Annual Founder’s Day Saturday, May 7. Following the trip to Matador the coach will be gifted to Silver Dollar City for permanent display.

For more information, updates and photos of past stagecoach runs, follow Hamby on Facebook or visit the Just for Kids Radio Roundup Facebook page. “We so look forward to meeting the people along the route,” Hamby said.

increased in southern Missouri

The discovery of a deer disease in Arkansas has increased surveillance efforts

by Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) staff in the southern part of the state.

This spring’s finding of 86 cases of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in northern Arkansas (82 in deer, four in elk) has caused MDC staff to ramp up sample collection for a CWD testing process that has been ongoing in Missouri since 2002. CWD is a disease that is spread from deer to deer and is fatal to all deer it infects. This neurological disease infects only deer and other members of the cervid family by causing degeneration of brain tissue.

As has been MDC’s procedure since Missouri’s first positive CWD case was confirmed in 2010, the agency has increased sample collecting See CWD on Page 7

Lady Eagles Soccer season comes to heartbreaking end It was a heartbreaking end to the season for the Lady Eagles (9-8) as they fell to the Logan-Rogersville Lady Wildcats (9-15) on Wednesday, May 18 during the district championship game.

The match was a battle from the beginning as both teams played a very long, physical game. The game itself, which

went into double OT and a shootout, lasted roughly two and a half hours.

During the first half the Lady Eagles struggled to find their footing and came out sluggish.

This allowed the Lady Wildcats to gain a 3-1 lead in the first 40 minutes of play.

The second half, as is usual with the Lady Eagles, was a

whole new ball game. Coming out with more speed and determination the Lady Eagles gained a PK. Senior Taylor Pulliam took the kick and brought the score to 2-3 during the 15th minute of play. This got the ball rolling again so to speak as Freshman Amanda Mantel scored the equalizer in the 27th minute of the second

half. The Lady Wildcats were unable to penetrate the Lady Eagles defense led by Senior Hanna Vines and keeper Junior Jaci Mantel.

The whistle blew but the game did not end there. The teams battled in overtime and then again in double overtime.

Remaining scoreless the match then turned into a shootout.

The Lady Wildcats managed to net four of their five shots winning them the game 4-3.

The Logan-Rogersville Wildcats were named the Class 2 District 10 champions and moved on to play the Bolivar Lady Liberators (17-4) on Saturday, May 21.

Senior Adrianna King (24) was part of the Lady Eagles defense that kept the Lady Wildcats at bay during the second half of the district championship game. King’s bursts of speed shut down several attempts at goal. (Photo: Standard/ Wagner)

DEFENSE - Even though the outcome of the game wasn’t a win, it would have been a shutout if not for the Lady Eagles defense. Senior Hanna Vines (11) is pictured above making one of many phenomenal stops to the Lady Wildcats offensive attack. Keeper Junior Jaci Mantel (31) was accredited with numerous saves keeping the Lady Eagles in the game until the end.

Liberty plays Mtn. Grove to close in baseball districts

by Brian Ingalls

Sports Writer brian@mvstandard.com

Liberty’s season may be over, but it was a strong finish.

Baseball came to end last week after the Eagles were knocked out of the second round of Districts by the top-seed and eventual District champions.

The Mountain Grove Panthers won the District championship 10-0 against the Licking Wildcats in six innings. Liberty, however, closes out their season with the knowledge that they took the mighty Panthers the distance in a much closer game. Mountain Grove squeaked by Liberty in seven innings with a 3-0 victory.

The Panthers, who enter the State Tournament with a 20-5 record, were nearly shut down by the Eagles pitching and defense. In fact, except for first couple innings, they were.

Two seniors, Dakota Millard

and Cale Cornman took the mound for Liberty, giving up just five total hits. Cornman added five strikeouts as the Eagles didn’t give up a single run after the second inning, or even a base hit.

Unfortunately for Liberty, the pitching and defense of the Panthers was just as good.

Senior Blaine Halford pitched all seven innings, striking out eight batters and giving up just one base hit to Cornman.

Liberty stranded a total of four runners on base against the Panthers. By the end of the week, Mountain Grove finished the District tournament without giving up a single run.

It was still an improvement for the Eagles as they held Mountain Grove more than five points below their scoring average. Liberty was still in a position to challenge for the lead until the final three outs.

In the end, however, the Panthers held on, and the Eagles

season came to a close. Liberty Head Coach Allen Hedden thanked his seniors on Facebook, and wrote, “So proud of how our boys fought against a really good baseball team today.”

SEASON STATS: Orchard 15 hits, 16 runs, 4 RBI’s, 4 doubles, 2 triples, 1 HR, 11 steals; Williams 12 hits, 9 runs, 7 RBI’s, 1 triple, 1 HR, 2 steals; Coatney 12 hits, 9 runs, 9 RBI’s, 1 double, 1 triple, 5 steals; Heilig 3 hits, 5 runs, 1 RBI, 2 steals; Millard 18 hits, 10 runs, 14 RBI’s, 1 double, 7 steals; C. Dewick 9 hits, 8 runs, 1 RBI, 2 doubles, 1 triple, 4 steals; Clark 4 runs; T.Dewick 13 hits, 9 runs, 9 RBI’s, 1 double, 4 steals; Hedden 11 hits, 7 runs, 1 RBI, 4 steals; T. Foster 1 run; C. Foster 5 hits, 7 runs, 2 RBI’s, 2 doubles; Cornman 21 hits, 17 runs, 10 RBI’s, 2 doubles, 3 HR’s, 7 steals.

50th place with a score of 89/83.

“I was really happy for the kids, the opportunity to have three kids quality and compete,” began Head Coach Rob Brown. “The weather was rough with constant rain, wind and cold, but they handled it well, both physically and mentally. I’m excited for Coatney to meal. I hope these three and Matthew Price can all make it as a team next year and improve on this year’s finish. Tyler Newton is taking

over the golf program and I know he will do a tremendous job.”

On a departure note, as Brown is leaving the district, he had this to say, “Liberty High School will always be one of my favorite steps in my career ... tremendous kids, great community support.

I’ve developed some lifelong friendships. I wish everyone here nothing but the best as they move forward and I am looking forward to the new challenges that are before me.”

Coach 164 games, mentoring three All-Americans, and 22 All-Region 16 performers. One of Walker’s starters from last year, Ngor Barnaba, moves up next season to play basketball with Utah State University. For Walker and the Liberty Eagles, the timing just seemed to be right.

“This was the best interview process I have been through,” said Walker, “I first talked to Mr. Daniels over the phone about the possibility of coming to Liberty.

Black bears are an exciting part of Missouri’s landscape, and the population of bears in the state is small but growing.

Black bears are shy and timid, and usually prefer to stay away from people, but sometimes they wander into developed areas.

The presence of a bear in your neighborhood is usually not cause for alarm. The most important things to do are to leave the bear alone, and make sure you don’t have any food sources on your property that will make the bear want to stay.

If you see a bear in your community: • Stay calm and stay at least 75 yards away from the bear.

• Keep children and pets away from the bear.

• If the bear climbs a tree: clear the area of people and pets, stay at least 75 yards away, and allow the bear to come down on its own (which will probably be after dark).

• Notify your county Conservation Agent.

If you encounter a bear up close: • Make sure the bear has an escape route – never corner a bear.

• Back away slowly with your arms raised.

• Speak in a loud, calm voice.

• Walk away slowly – DO NOT RUN. If a bear comes on to your property: • Remain calm and get to a safe place, such as in a house or a car (not up a tree).

• Do not approach the bear.

Give it as much space as possible.

• Encourage the bear to leave by making loud noises, such as banging pots and pans and yelling.

• When it’s safe to do so, remove all food attractants from your property (for example, move garbage and pet food inside).

• Notify your county Conservation Agent or local law enforcement.

Why are bears in your neighborhood?

Bears find their way into neighborhoods and other developed areas when they’re looking for food, a mate, or a new territory. They’re usually just passing through, and as long as they don’t find something good to eat they’ll be on their way soon.

Bears are intelligent, and have an excellent sense of smell. Common items that attract bears to neighborhoods include: • Garbage • Animal food (pet food, bird feeders, livestock feed, etc.)

• Food smells from barbecues, smokers, coolers, etc.

• Fallen fruit in orchards • Beehives Store these items inside a secure building or in a bearproof container. Electric fencing can be used around beehives and other things that can’t be moved. For more in-

formation, go to mdc.mo.gov/ node/4607 or contact your county Conservation Agent for assistance.

A fed bear is a dead bear.

Feeding bears, either by purposely leaving food out or by not removing attractants, is bad for bears and for people. Feeding bears makes them lose their natural fear of humans, and teaches them to see humans as food providers. They’ll learn to return to places like campsites, homes, and neighborhoods to look for food, instead of staying in the woods. A bear that has gotten used to getting food from humans may become aggressive and dangerous.

When this happens, the bear has to be destroyed.

If you’d like more information about bears and living in bear country, go to the Missouri Department of Conservation’s website at mdc. mo.gov/BearAware, or contact your county Conservation Agent. Thanks for staying safe and keeping Missouri’s bears wild and healthy.

Memorial services for Bonnie Lou Anderson were held on Saturday, May 14, 2016 at the First Baptist Church in Eminence, MO with Bro. Tommy Boyd officiating. Arrangements were under the direction of Duncan Funeral Home, LLC of Eminence, MO. Bonnie Lou Anderson was born November 4, 1947 at Topeka, KS, the daughter of Charles Milton Decker and Alma Marie (Ketcherside) Decker. She passed away May 10, 2016 at Mountain View, MO at the age of 68 years.

She was united in marriage to the love of her life David William Anderson on March 19, 1977 in Clinton, KS. Bonnie is preceded in

death by her parents Charles and Alma Decker. She is survived by her husband David Anderson of Eminence, MO; three brothers Tom Decker of Mcloud, KS, Bob Decker and wife Liz of Little Canada, MN, and Jim Decker and wife Barb of Eudora, KS; nieces, nephews and a host of friends. Bonnie lived in Kansas most of her life and graduated from Lecompton High School. Growing up, she was active in playing softball. Bonnie worked as a home decorator and sold home interior and gifts for 20 years. David and Bonnie played in a band together for 18 years while living in Kansas and made many friends doing so. In 2003, Bonnie and David moved to Emi-

nence, MO. They opened the Hat Shack at Stewart’s Landing, which they still operate and it is the home of the Jacks Fork Country Church founded by Bonnie and David. After moving to Eminence they continued to play music in nursing homes and restaurants, and hosting jam sessions at the Hat Shack. Bonnie loved her dogs and really loved her mule Lulu which she rode faithfully until her health forbid it. Bonnie loved life and people and most of all she loved the Lord.

She will be missed by everyone who knew her.

and surveillance around areas where the disease has been found. A focus area of 50 miles from Arkansas’ CWD positive tests has been established. This consists of the Missouri counties of Barry, Christian, Douglas, Ozark, Stone and Taney. Since mid-spring, MDC staff has increased efforts in these counties to collect samples from sick and road-killed deer to test for CWD. It’s important to note that, though the current effort represents sample collecting of a greater magnitude in southern Missouri, this isn’t the first time samples have been collected in this part of the state. Since 2002, MDC has conducted statewide vigilance for the disease in accordance with its CWD surveillance and management plan. In addition to this watchfulness across the state, MDC has periodically intensified sample collection in some parts of Missouri, either on a rotational basis to make sure all parts of the state are being tested or because the detection of a positive case has warranted increased focus on a particular area.

MDC’s current statewide surveillance (“statewide” being defined as meaning outside of counties that have already been established as CWD Management Zone focus counties) concentrates on one-half of the state each year. For the 2015-2016 deer hunting seasons, MDC’s focus

was on southern Missouri. Most of these samples came from hunter-harvested deer and were collected by cooperating taxidermists.

To date, more than 51,000 deer have been tested for CWD in Missouri. A total of 27 cases of the disease have been confirmed in the state. These have been found in the northeast, central and east-central portions of the state.

At present, no animals collected from southern Missouri have tested positive for CWD. MDC is maintaining close contact with Arkansas Game and Fish personnel to monitor findings and collaboratively interpret what this means for our state.

As always, MDC appreciates assistance from the public. Anyone who sees a deer portraying signs of illness or abnormal behavior is encouraged to call their local MDC office or contact the county’s conservation agent.

The more details callers can provide (gender of animal, location, etc.), the better the deer can be located and the situation assessed.

More information can be obtained by calling MDC’s Southwest Regional Office in Springfield, (417) 895-6880 or MDC’s Ozark Regional Office in West Plains, (417) 256-7161. Information on CWD can also be found at mdc.mo.gov.

Chris Popp named new head coach of Grizzly Basketball team Chris Popp, assistant men’s basketball coach at the University of Arkansas-Fort Smith, has been selected as the new head coach of the Grizzly Basketball program at Missouri State University-West Plains, university officials announced.

Popp’s (pronounced “Pope”) hiring is subject to approval by the Missouri State University Board of Governors. His first day on the job will be Monday, May 23.

“We are thrilled to have Coach Popp join Grizzly

Athletics,” said Dr. Angela Totty, dean of student services/athletic director.

“Coach Popp has 15 years of coaching experience, with proven excellence in recruiting. He has shown commitment to the development of student athletes, mentoring and advising them to success both on the court and toward their future. Coach Popp has led community initiatives and outreach programs, and we excitedly anticipate the revitalization his addition can bring to our program.”

Hadley receives award at MSU-WP commencement

SETH HADLEY, right, Birch Tree, received the Outstanding Student Award for Associate of Arts/Associate of Science/Associate of Applied Science degree graduates at Missouri State University-West Plains’ commencement ceremonies Saturday, May 14, at the West Plains Civic Center. The award recognizes a graduate from either the AA, AS or AAS programs who exhibits academic excellence, interest and enthusiasm in learning, conscientiousness, academic honesty, a willingness to participate and help others in class, and exceptional university and community service. Hadley graduated with an Associate of Arts in General Studies degree. Presenting Hadley his award above is Dean of Academic Affairs Dr. Dennis Lancaster.

cited I am to be a part of the Grizzly family,” Popp said.

“I am indebted to the search committee, Dr. Totty and Dr. (Drew) Bennett for giving me this tremendous opportunity. It was clear when I visited on my interview and again with my family that the quality of leadership and level of support here at Missouri State-West Plains is exceptional.

“I understand being a part of something bigger than yourself,” he continued. “In the same way it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a community to create a culture. There is a commitment here not only to winning, but to helping young men develop and prepare for their next step. It is a great privilege to become part of that environment. This is a special place for junior college athletics.”

Bo Pace, Grizzly Booster Club president and a member of the search committee, pointed out Popp’s hiring is a new beginning for the program. “We are entering a new era for Grizzly Basketball, and we are excited about having Chris Popp and his family move to West Plains and come on board with the Grizzly Athletics program,” he said.

Bennett, chancellor of Missouri State-West Plains, commended the search committee for its efforts in selecting the new head coach.

“We need to thank the search committee, made up of faculty, staff and community members, for a truly wonderful job,” he said. “After receiving 120 applicants in 20 days, this committee worked tirelessly to find just

the right coach for our basketball program. Supporters of our athletic program will be extremely happy with the search committee’s recommendation of Coach Popp.

I am confident that not only will Coach Popp take Missouri State-West Plains back to the exciting level of basketball we have known in the past, but over time, he will build a program that will take us to the next level and even greater success.”

Popp comes to Missouri State-West Plains with 15 years of coaching experience, nine at the NCAA Division II level. He has been on staff with three collegiate programs, all of which were nationally ranked during his tenure. He has recruited, coached and developed 34 all-conference performers, two All-Americans, three Freshman of the Year selections and 13 student athletes who went on to play professionally.

For the past five years, he has served as the first assistant coach with the UAFS Lions, which competes in NCAA Division II’s Heartland Conference. During his time at UAFS, the Lions won back-to-back conference championships, were ranked as high as No. 16 nationally, and earned two at-large bids to the NCAA Division II tournament. This past season, the Lions went 23-9, were ranked 24th, and returned to the national tournament as the No. 6 seed in the South Central Region.

As the Lions’ first assistant coach, Popp was recruiting, academic and scheduling coordinator, and coached post players.

Prior to his position at UAFS, Popp was an assistant coach at Newman University, another Heartland Conference team, in Wichi-

MDC reminds public to not feed deer in CWD counties The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) reminds landowners, deer hunters, and others that a regulation banning the feeding of deer becomes effective on May 30 for 29 counties in north-central, central, and east-central Missouri.

Grain, salt products, minerals, and other consumable products used to attract deer are now prohibited year-round in the fol-

lowing 29 counties: Adair, Boone, Callaway, Carroll, Chariton, Crawford, Cole, Cooper, Franklin, Gasconade, Jefferson, Knox, Linn, Livingston, Macon, Miller, Moniteau, Morgan, Osage, Putnam, St. Charles, St. Louis, Randolph, Schuyler, Scotland, Shelby, Sullivan, Washington, and Warren.

Exceptions to the regulation include feeding wildlife within 100 feet of any residence or occupied

building, feed placed in a manner that excludes access by deer, and feed and minerals used solely for normal agricultural, forest management, or wildlife food-plot-production practices.

The feeding ban is one step MDC is taking to limit the spread of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD), a fatal neurological disease that infects only deer and other members of the deer fami-

ly. The disease has no vaccine or cure and is 100-percent fatal. CWD is spread from deer to deer and the potential for transmission increases when deer gather in larger, concentrated numbers, such as at feeding sites.

The 29 counties affected

by the feeding ban comprise the Department’s CWD Management Zone. The zone consists of counties within or that touch a radius of approximately 25 miles from where CWD has been found. According to MDC, 33 free-ranging deer in Missouri have tested positive for the disease with 21 found

MDC hosts Youth Bowfishing Clinic June 4 The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) will host a Youth Bowfishing Clinic for ages 12 to 17, Saturday, June 4, at 6 p.m., at Udall access on Norfork Lake, south of Tecomseh.

“This will be an exciting and educational experience where young people will have an opportunity to learn how to fish with their bow,” said Larry Lindeman, an MDC outdoor skills specialist.

Lindeman said participants will learn the basics of bowfishing before embarking on a bowfishing trip.

The clinic will feature qualified instructors who will share bowfishing shooting techniques, types of specialized equipment needed, fish identification, bowfishing strategies, fish preparation, regulations and more.

Lindeman said this program is a response to rising interest in archery that’s re-

sulted from an increase of school participation in the Missouri National Archery in the Schools program.

“This event takes the participant from the gymnasium to the water and gives students an opportunity to apply the skills they’ve likely already learned in school,” Lindeman said. “Our ultimate goal is to get the kids submerged in nature and learning a valuable outdoor skill.”

Lindeman said participants must have some basic experience in archery and be able to draw a 20-pound bow. An adult guardian is also required to attend with each student. All equipment will be provided and pre-registration is required in order to attend. Attendees 16 and older must have a valid fishing permit. For more information or to register, contact Bow fishing is an exciting sport combining aspects of both the MDC’s Ozark Regional Office at (417)256-7161. hunting and fishing. (Photo courtesy of MDC)

in Macon County, 9 in Adair, one in Cole, one in Franklin, and one in Linn.

The ban on feeding deer is one of several actions MDC is taking to help limit the spread of CWD. MDC also collects tissue samples from several thousand harvested, sick, and road-killed wild deer around the state each year to test for CWD. The sampling efforts focus both on areas where CWD has been found and on broader, statewide testing.

The Department will increase its CWD sampling and testing efforts.

MDC has removed the antler-point restriction in all CWD-Management-Zone counties.

The Department has increased the availability of firearms antlerless permits from 1 to 2 in all CWD-Management-Zone counties.

MDC also strongly discourages the removal of deer carcasses from CWD-Management-Zone counties.
