Tallapoosa ranks 56th in child well-being

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 3, 2015

Former county schools leader dead at 83 Sanford left mark on county school system

By David Granger Outlook Staff Writer

Tallapoosa County ranks 56th among Alabama’s 67 counties in child well-being, according to the 2015 Alabama Kids Count Data Book, published by the non-profit Voices for Alabama’s Children, the state’s longest-standing child advocacy organization. The annual data book reports state and county data trends on child well-being for Alabama. This year’s data book includes data on 51 key indicators across four issue areas: health, education, safety and economic security. This year marks the 22nd edition of the Voices for Alabama’s Children research report. The rankings were based on nine key factors: children in poverty, fourth-grade reading proficiency, child food security, low-weight births, children in single-parent families, births to unmarried teens, teens not in school and not working and births to females aged 10-19 per 1,000. Rhonda Mann, Voices’ policy and research director, said that the number of factors that Voices takes into account in putting together the data book continues to grow. “Last year we had a big increase in the factors that we figured in, jumping from 13 two years ago to 46 last year,” Mann said. “This year we’ve grown to 51.” Mann said this year’s data book added births to females ages 10-19, English language learners, early Head Start and Head Start classrooms, homeless students and diet-related deaths. As to why Tallapoosa ranked so poorly among Alabama’s 67 counties, Mann pointed out that Tallapoosa’s numbers were worse than the state average in all nine indicators. • Child poverty: Thirty-four percent of the county’s children live in poverty, up from 24.6 percent in 2000. The state average is 26.9 percent. 17.6 percent of children in Tallapoosa County live in extreme poverty, up from 9.5 percent in 2000. The state average is 12. 6 percent. • Fourth-grade reading proficiency: This number is taken from ASPIRE ACT test scores and this is the first year this indicator was included. Tallapoosa County came in at 33.1 percent. The state average is 38.3 percent. • Unemployment rate: 7.7 percent (it has since dropped significantly) in Tallapoosa County versus 6.8 percent statewide. • Low-weight births: 11.8 percent, up from See DATA, Page 5

A man who admitted to raping and strangling a Camp Hill woman to death will serve just 10 years in prison. Markis Edward Heard, 35, plead guilty Wednesday before Judge Ray Martin to the February 2005 felony murder and firstdegree rape of 78-year-old Willie Louise Kellum of Camp Hill. Heard’s plea agreement has a split sentence of 20 years to serve five years for each of the counts to be served consecutively. Heard will serve 10 years in prison and 30 years on parole. Heard was arrested on Oct. 13, 2013 after investigators indicated the state Department of Forensic Sciences had “definitively linked” Heard to the crime through DNA analysis.

Heard was originally charged with capital murder/burglary and capital murder/rape. The Kellum murder garnered national attention when it appeared on the TNT Network show Cold Justice. On the television show and in Heard previous reports by The Outlook, Kellum was described as a person who enjoyed being surrounded by her friends and extended family when she attended the United Methodist Church each Sunday. Even at age 78, Kellum was known for her high energy and dry wit. She worked long after she could have retired as a cook

at the Head Start Program for more than 40 years. Kellum’s passion for working with children was a perfect fit for the Head Start’s mission serving low-income families in the region. On her final morning, she ran errands and stopped for groceries. The grocery store was the last place she was seen alive. That evening her grandson, who was living with her, found Kellum unconscious and he called 911. When Camp Hill Police arrived at her home, they found Kellum with a cord wrapped around her neck and bruises all over her body. The murder shook the entire community.

Camp Hill police warn of possible rip-off By Cliff Williams Record Staff Writer

Area residents, especially the elderly, need to be aware of what could be a new scam. “We have a report of someone claiming to be a nurse with Medicaid or Home Health knocking on a door,” Camp Hill Police Chief Johnny Potts said. “This individual, a black female, stole a purse from an elderly lady on North Main Street in Camp Hill Monday afternoon about 3 p.m.” Potts said so far this is the only report of this type of theft in Camp Hill and that it could have been prevented. “This is the first one,” Potts said. “But we want to make sure everyone is aware that Medicaid and Home Health nurses almost always have an appointment. They don’t just drop by. The door was unlocked. The suspect just opened the door and was approached by the resident. The suspect introduced herself as a nurse and then stole the resident’s purse before leaving.” Potts said the Camp Hill Police is looking for information to help solve this crime. “If anyone has information that can help, just call us at 256-373-1007,” Potts said. Potts also said that if someone is knocking on the door, especially of the elderly, and they do not recognize them, to ask for identification. “If a resident does not know who is at the door and thinks that the person is not who they say they are, they should call 911,” Potts said.

Sometimes the punishment doesn’t fit the crime

T

allapoosa County and Alexander City have some of the finest and most dedicated law enforcement officials you could find. The same can be said of the men who wear the robes in our courtrooms. With that in mind, here at The Outlook we find ourselves wondering aloud how 35-year-old Markis Heard could receive a sentence that will result in his spending only 10 years behind bars for the rape and murder of a much-beloved 78-year-old Camp Hill woman in 2005. Heard and his attorney reached a plea agreement that resulted in that sentence on Wednesday. On the last day of her life – Feb. 21, 2005 – Willie Louise Kellum, who worked 40 years as a cook for the Head Start program, rose, ran a few errands and went grocery shopping. She wasn’t seen after her trip to the grocery store until her grandson found her bruised and with a cord around her neck that evening. Is Kellum’s life worth more than 10 years? We think so and we believe most would agree with us. But Alabama finds itself in a situation where prison overcrowding has forced down mandatory minimum sentences in an effort to, in time, reduce our prison populations. Meanwhile, there are dangerous men and women being released who have little to no regard for human life, like Heard, yet are allowed to walk among us. Simply put, the more money we spend to build more inmate housing, the sooner we can feel safe again. Because Alabamians so overwhelmingly support candidates for public office who just say no – no questions asked – to taxes and, as a result, the citizens when afforded the right to vote for taxes adopt the same attitude, we find ourselves in a dangerous damned-if-we-do, damned-if-we-don’t quandary. We heard much this past legislative session about how the Goat Hill crowd had passed meaningful prison reform legislation. But how long can we wait for the proof with men like Heard receiving proverbial slaps on their wrists?

Editorial Our

Thankful for 80th birthday celebrations Mission

M

y father Jim Boone turned 80 the day before Thanksgiving. He was the star of his own birthday party Wednesday evening in Tuscaloosa, holding court at the dinner table between courses and speaking personally and in-depth about each of his five children, two daughters-in-law and two sons-in-law and wife. And that’s plenty to be thankful for. Being the eldest son, I was the first topic of table conversation … a heart-warming, seatsquirming, mostly happy experience. He did mention the time he took me down to the Tuscaloosa police station and turned me in for dropping a pumpkin on a car, and how my little sister Martha came running up with tears in her eyes and offered all the money in her piggy bank if that would help. We didn’t need to break the piggy, and I didn’t have to spend time in the pokey. In fact I think the most memorable punishment for that bit of adolescent poor judgment is a family story that just won’t go away. But he said lots of very nice things as well. During his talk about me, he mentioned a box that he has mailed to me. Dad is moving his office in Tuscaloosa which, like every move, usually starts off a house-cleaning. He had a file on me that had been building for years, and decided to package it up and send it to me. It arrived last week packed in microwave oven-sized

KENNETH BOONE Publisher

box and I just started going through it. I guess every parent has the same type of file on their children. It may not be as organized as Jim Boone’s – the top right corner of many documents include filing instructions like “file-personal-people-K. Boone” written in his hand – but throwing away those important and not-so-important documents of our children’s lives is just not an option. It’s funny what gets in the file and what simply disappears over time. So far, I’ve only gone through the top layer in the box. Dad sent me copies of the University of Alabama Commencement programs from 1983 and 1984 bearing my name and my wife Mary Lyman’s under the graduates heading. There were cancelled checks to me marked “loan” for $1,000 and $2,000, both from 1983, the year I got married – I can’t remember what that was about, or if I even repaid them. I’d bet I did, because I bet Dad would have collected them. There were old newspaper stories I wrote as a “cub” reporter for the Missouri City (Texas) Mirror and for the newspaper with the longest name in Texas,

The Richmond-Rosenberg Herald-Coaster. There were closing documents on the first house I bought, for $70,000, in Selma, where I wound up being managing editor of The Selma TimesJournal. Dad returned letters that I wrote to him and letters Mary Lyman wrote to him. There were a number of old photos, one taken of me on my first newspaper job in 1984 that looks strikingly like my son James right now. There was my original hospital birth certificate from San Jacinto Memorial Hospital in Baytown, Texas, including my left and right footprint, and both my mother’s thumbprints, as well as my official birth certificate from the County of Travis, Texas. And there were my adoption papers, which show that in July of 1962, after earlier marrying my mother, Martha Gray Mertens, my father Jim Boone chose to give me his last name. During his birthday, he told all 17 family members at the table that the first time he saw me I had green peas all over my face. It’s another slightly uncomfortable family story that won’t go away. He adopted me anyway. They say you can’t choose your relatives and mostly that’s true. But in my case, my father chose me. This Thanksgiving, I give thanks that he did.

Adopted son brings this dad tears of joy

I

read with more-thancasual interest the column of Kenneth Boone, my boss, that is in today’s paper. Near the end, it told the story of Kenneth’s adoption by his father (or, as he calls him, his “dad,”), Jim Boone. I was moved by the column because I can tell the same story – from the opposite point of view. You see, I adopted my only son, Brandon, and gave him my last name when he was just a year old, shortly after marrying his mother. Brandon’s mother, Barbara, and I are now divorced and both remarried, but Brandon remains my only son (although I have a stepson that seems like a son to me, too). I saw him through preschool, grade school and junior high from about 40 miles away before he came to live with me and my wife Lynn to attend high school at Elmore County High School in Eclectic, my alma mater, from which Brandon graduated in 2002. After graduation, Brandon did a single stint with the Navy in its nuclear program, stationed aboard the U.S.S. Miami, a nuclear submarine. When he was honorably discharged from his Naval service early due to a back injury, he enrolled at AUM and earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in psychology in a little more than two years. I will not disclose to you, dear reader, how long it took me to achieve my bachelor’s degree in journalism at Auburn. Needless to say, I am

proud of my son (And I never qualify the word “son” when speaking about Brandon. He has been, is and always will be my SON, regardless of our lack of any blood relation). And I remember vividly the day he became my son. There wasn’t much too it. We just signed some papers and I shed some tears. A whole lot of tears. The joyful kind. Thing is, if I had known the man Brandon would eventually become, it’s likely I would have blubbered still more. He’s married now to a wonderful woman named Jessica. He and Jessica have a son. They named that beautiful grandson of mine Jack, after my father who died four years ago and was the only grandfather Brandon ever knew. Of course, there was more blubbering when they told me about Jack’s name. Brandon has grown into a fine Christian man and husband. He holds a full-time job and, at the same time, is trying to get his own business off the ground on weekends. I’ve no doubt he’ll be successful in that business in due time. For the first several years of his life, Brandon was unaware of who his biological father was. Frankly, I was terrified even at the thought of his

knowing he was adopted. The thought of revealing to him the identify of his biological father kept me up at night. But, in my heart, I knew that I would want to know and to rob Brandon of that knowledge wasn’t right. So we told him. Since then, he’s met his biological father and his half sister. When I asked him how it went, he talked more about the sister than his father. And, somehow, sensing my worry, my insecurity, he said, “Dad, you’ve nothing to worry about. I know who has been there. I know who raised me. As far as I am concerned, you will ALWAYS be my father.” This time, I think I set a record for blubbering. This life takes some weird twists and turns. By 55, I thought I would be surrounded by a gaggle of blood-related grandchildren. I have the grandchildren, three of them. Two from my wonderful stepson, Jeremy, and Brandon’s Jack. They may not have my blood, but they’ve got spunk and loving fathers that I helped raise. That’s the only claim I need to be their grandfather. Or Pepop (pronounced PEE-pop), as they call me. As Kenneth put it in his Saturday column, “They say you can’t choose your relatives and mostly that’s true.” But like his father chose him, I chose my son, too I’m so glad – and so blessed – that I did.

in education at the Opelika Achievement Center. Sanford then returned to Dadeville where he served as a teacher, coach, and guidance counselor at Dadeville High School. From there, Sanford moved into administration, serving as Tallapoosa County Schools’ federal programs coordinator and as assistant superintendent of education for 18 years before being elected Tallapoosa County’s Superintendent of Education in 1985. Sanford served from 19851993 before retiring with 36 years of service to public education. Among the greatest accomplishments of his tenure were the construction of Horseshoe Bend School, the Dadeville High School Media Center/ Classroom addition, Edward

Bell Elementary School Annex and the purchase of the land for the site of the current Reeltown High School. Meadows said working with Sanford made time pass quickly. “I really enjoyed working with Jimmy,” Meadows said. “You couldn’t ask for a better man to work with. Time just flew by.” “He was a character,” Rev. Gary Wiggins of First Baptist Church in Dadeville said of Sanford. “He was certainly faithful to his church all his life. He served here as a deacon and a Sunday School teacher. He was well-loved and respected, had a great sense of humor and was greatly loved in this community.” Wiggins added that Sanford suffered from Alzheimer’s dis-

ease before his death. “He was sick for a long time,” Wiggins said. “But he dealt with it well. Often you wouldn’t even know it. He learned how to get through situations.” Sanford is survived by his wife of 60 years, Billie Nell Black Sanford, his daughter, Harriet Ann Sanford White, his son, Jimmy Kyle “Jim” Sanford Jr., and two grandchildren, Dr. Kyle Sanford and Lindsay Sanford. Sanford’s funeral and burial were Monday at First Baptist Church and City Cemetery. In lieu of flowers the family asks that memorial gifts be made to First Baptist Church, the Dadeville Tiger Club, Lake Martin Hospice or to the Tallapoosa County School of your choice.

Data 11.3 percent in 2003. The state average is 10 percent. • Births to unmarried teens: 12 percent, down from 12.4 percent in 2003. Statewide, the average is 7.6 percent. • Births to females, aged 10-19 years: 26 per 1,000, up from 25.3 per 1,000 in 2003. State average is 17.4 per 1,000. • Teens not in school and not working: 16.6 percent, up from 12.3 percent in 2,000. The state average is 9.6 percent. Mann downplayed Tallapoosa County’s low state ranking. “It’s really not important how you rank against the other counties in the state,” Mann said. “What’s important is how you rank against yourself, how you continue to show improvement.” Mann was also com-

plimentary of Tallapoosa County’s ACT scores for juniors. Tallapoosa County was only one of 15 in the state whose juniors in 2013-2014 – a year when all juniors were required to take the test – averaged a 20 or better on their English, math, reading, science and composite ACT scores. Mann said two universal concerns are the aging and growing diversity of our population. “There are national and state trends toward an aging population,” Mann said. “The impact will be a smaller pool of workers to take the places of baby boomers as they retire. “It’s also predicted that in as few as three to five years the diversity of the child population will shift so that children of color will make up the majority of the

child population. And by 2030 they will make up the majority of the work force. The implications we need to be aware of are certain populations that are impacted at a higher rate in health outcomes and educational achievements. We have to look at the gaps to make sure that all children are given the opportunity to succeed from the earliest years when 90 percent of brain development occurs.” Most of the counties that ranked below Tallapoosa in the Voices data book are in Alabama’s impoverished Black Belt, including Macon, Lowndes, Perry, Dallas and Wilcox counties. Others ranked below Tallapoosa were Monroe, Barbour, Chambers, Conecuh and Bullock counties. “We take a look at the demographic,

health, education, safety and economic security data and trends for Alabama’s children since 2000,” writes Melanie Bridgeforth, executive director of Voices, in the book’s foreword. “Some data provide hope. Other data serve as a cautionary tale to state leaders that investing in children is not an option, but a prerequisite for the future prosperity of Alabama.” Voices for Alabama’s Children’s mission is to ensure the well-being of Alabama’s children through research, public awareness and advocacy. The books is published by Voices with grants from the Annie E. Casey Foundation, Alabama Power Co., Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama, Fruit of the Loom and Children’s of Alabama.

The God Questions So, if you could ask God any question, what would it be? Would it be “Why does a good God allow suffering?” How about, “What really happens when I die?” Or, “Do all roads (and all religions) lead to you?” “Was Jesus really your son?” “Is the Bible true and can I trust what it says?” These are all great questions, and at New Covenant Church we’re exploring the answers. Come join us – no question is too tough!

God’s Word is alive

ood morning friends! The word says, “As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, to water the earth and to make it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater…so is My Word that goes forth from My Mouth: it will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. You will go out in Joy and to be led forth in PEACE; the mountains and hills will burst forth into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.” (Isaiah 55:10-12) What a vibrant, descriptive passage of God’s Word! Can you just imagine the mountains singing and the trees clapping as the Word is being proclaimed?

Carol Page Good News Baptist Church

The Word is “alive!” We as Christians have so much to offer this world through God’s Word, and much to accomplish in the name of Jesus. But, what are we doing about it? Are we planting seed which will produce fruit? Are we making the Word known to those around us? Are we being a “living” example of our Christian faith? Many times we go to God’s Word when we are in a crisis or when the mood strikes us…and we expect immediate answers to our problems. And,

Compliments of

for some reason, we think we will grow abundantly from our few minutes with God! God’s Word is constant and it is a SEED that must be watered and nourished before it can go forth and reap a harvest! So, let’s start at home. As parents and in our own walk of life, we can’t just do our own thing, follow our own will and then push a button and ask God to make us all a “holy” people! We must be planting His Word continually, expecting a harvest of plenty! Today, be ready to share His Word in your home and for someone along the way! Love you my friends and have a blessed day!

NEW SEASON, NEW COACH, NEW EXPECTATIONS Rebels set to open 2015-2016 season next week under new coach Gardner By Robert Hudson

2016 is make-or-break year for Gus Malzahn A

nother, not so epic, Iron Bowl has unfolded before our eyes and bragging rights have unfortunately been secured for the next 364 days by the Crimson Tide. While my tonguein-cheek prediction last week of 22-20 actually had a better chance of coming to fruition than I ever imagined, the game played out pretty much the way I thought it would in the end. Derrick Henry was clearly the best player on the field and Auburn had no answer for him especially in the fourth quarter. The better team won and I don’t have any problem saying that. However, I do have a problem hearing multiple Alabama fans tell me Will Muschamp is an embarrassment and has no class. I certainly don’t condone his salty language and I wish he hadn’t incurred a killer penalty at a crucial time, but the truth is if the referees had done their job he wouldn’t have gotten so angry. I love that he has that much fire and I believe it is exactly what Auburn needs on the defensive side of the ball. The hypocrisy of a fan base that lauds every move Nick Saban makes is a little more nauseating than I can bear. Saint Nick has displayed more rage on the sidelines and cussed out more officials, reporters and players (his own) than I can count. I’m all for condemning bad behavior, but that would make for a lot of glass to clean up in Tuscaloosa. It would be an understatement to say the third-year of the Gus Malzahn tenure didn’t go as planned. Obviously, Auburn failed miserably to live up to high expectations which has regrettably become a hallmark of the Tiger program. Malzahn has now gone from 12 wins and an SEC title in year one to eight wins and a bowl loss in year two. This year’s regular season has now

ended with six wins and a presumed trip to the who cares bowl. That’s a little something I like to call trending in the wrong ANDY direction. In the “tell me GRAHAM something I don’t already Sports know” category, 2016 Columnist will be a make or break year for Gus Malzahn and company. I still believe he has what it takes to turn things around, but significant challenges lie ahead. The first decision that has to be made involves staff changes and if they’re in the best interest of the program. It is imperative for big-time coaches in this day and age to be multifaceted. They must be dynamic recruiters, excellent technicians and great developers of talent. They are called on to be father figures, mentors and disciplinarians. It’s a big job, but that’s why they make the big bucks. I clearly saw development on the defensive side of the ball in a lot of areas in 2015. The Auburn defense only gave up 30 points one time in a game that didn’t go into overtime. Last year, they gave up 30 points seven times. I also clearly saw regression at the positions of quarterback and wide receiver. Malzahn must weigh in the balance each assistant and decide if they are helping or hurting Auburn. The second order of business is to secure another top ten recruiting class. Depth is a problem right now on the Plains and needs to be addressed immediately. Finally, Gus has to get the offense back on track. If the Tigers aren’t piling up yards and scoring a lot of points, they’re just another mediocre team (see this season). If that means giving the keys to another juniorcollege phenom, so be it. Lots of decisions are going to be made in the next several months and each one will be dissected ad nausea. Sounds like fun.

PUZZLES & HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You have the ability to change a situation with your ideas and attentiveness. You are likely to surprise others by acting in a most unexpected way. Communication between you and someone at a distance is confusing at best. Tonight: All’s well that ends well. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You’ll gain an insight that might make you uncomfortable. A child or loved one could be quite distracting, despite your efforts to accomplish certain tasks throughout the day. A partner simply can’t seem to leave you alone! Tonight: Give up. Give in. Have a great time. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Stay anchored, and know what you want from a situation. The unexpected is likely to occur in a meeting. You could be fired up and react too quickly. Ask questions before you make judgments. You know where you are heading. Tonight: Good vibes surround your home. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Keep reaching out to others before you make a decision. A boss might shake up the status quo. The unexpected will have you floundering for a short period. Avoid having a knee-jerk reaction, and ask questions for a better understanding. Tonight: Optimism saves the day. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You need to be more careful when dealing with your finances. Pressure builds between you and a loved one. You can talk until you’re blue in the face, but you’ll still need to keep your finances separate from those of this person. Tonight: Decide if you can afford an indulgence. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Others will want to listen, but the unexpected continues to throw a situation into chaos. Communication at home could be confusing and not particularly beneficial. Opportunities will emerge from out of the blue. Tonight: You call the shots. Others are willing to go along.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Think through a problem before discussing it. You need to know what your limits are and what seems workable. Confusion surrounds a conversation, no matter which way you decide to go. Be reasonable in a request you make. Tonight: Make it a personal night. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Zero in on your priorities. You could find others to be full of ideas, some of which you have toyed with yourself. An animated conversation points to a new approach. Know that you will get what you want, but through an odd sequence of events. Tonight: Where your friends are. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Someone who has clout holds a very different view from yours. Find out which direction would be best to head in. You have a lot going on. Do not fight city hall. Sooner or later, things will work out as you would like them to. Tonight: Out till the wee hours again. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Try to see the big picture. You might not agree with others, and perhaps you don’t know what would be best to do. Recognize your limits right now. State your boundaries so that others know what to expect. Unusually good news heads your way. Tonight: Take a risk. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH One-on-one relating might be difficult at first, especially as you and someone else attempt to work out a financial situation. This person has a greater understanding of the matter than you do, and he or she will create the type of money flow you desire. Tonight: The decision is yours. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You could be very tired of hearing the same story over and over again without seeing any growth or resolution. You might not see eye to eye with a higher-up right now. Why not kick back and let others see the results of their plans and thinking? Tonight: A must appearance.

The Dadeville Record

Dome Even a day later the excitement had players, coaches and fans wanting more. “My youngest, Carson is rubbing it in with his older brother,� Riddle said. “My oldest has been rubbing it in about playing here or there, but now my youngest is having fun with this.� “It was like a dream for many of these kids,� Taylor said. “A lot of these kids have never been to a big time football game like the NFL much less a big stadium – it was a dream come true for many of them.� The idea behind the game came from retired Pittsburgh Steelers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Benny Snipe who has been helping coach in the Dadeville league and running some youth football camps. “I had a former teammate of mine approach me,� Snipe explained. “He was working with the Falcons and said that they were looking for some Alabama teams to come play after the Falcons.� Snipe was happy with the results of the day. “It went well,� Snipe said. “I think the kids were ecstatic about it. I hope the kids got something from it – that dreams can come true with hard work. It will be a good memory for them.� The game itself attracted some 400 fans from Tallapoosa County. “It was great to not only play in the Georgia Dome but also in front of family and fans too,� Taylor said. The game itself started a little slow with the

Dadeville then returned an Alexander City fumble 34 yards to score and took the lead 12-6. Dadeville struck again when Kendrick Sands intercepted an Alexander City pass and returned it for a touchdown making the score 18-6. With time running out, Alexander City’s McNeal broke free after a scramCliff Williams / TheRecord ble, running 70 yards Dadeville’s Kendrick Sands, above, attempts a pass against Alexander City as the two teams played a game in the Geordown the sideline making gia Dome Sunday. Below, Dadeville’s Javuntae Holley brings down Alexander City’s Demarcus McNeal. the score 18-12. So for now Dadeville holds the trophy in the clash of the cities. Riddle, Snipe and Taylor want to see the trip to the Dome happen again. “We want to try to do again next year,� Snipe said. “The kids are saying they want to do it again,� Taylor said. “They are excited about the chance of being able to go back next year. I think the coaches might have enjoyed it more than the kids. It was an unbelievable opportunity for our kids.� “My son is going to be talking about this for a long time,� Riddle said. “He is not going to let his older brother forget about it.�
