Bids to open Council: Moves being made on courthouse square project By CLIFF WILLIAMS Staff Writer
The Dadeville City Council learned Tuesday bids will finally be opened next week for the courthouse square renovation project. The project has been in the works for more than a year and was combined with efforts from the Tallapoosa County Commission so work could be done on the sidewalks, lights and lawn of the county property. The state has provided grant funding through ADECA for the project with Dadeville and the commission. The project has also had to meet the approval of the Alabama Department of Transportation since state Highway 49 passes through the square. The project includes the moving of utilities, new sidewalks and paving of streets around the courthouse. Dadeville city clerk Debbie Minor said the council is also looking at starting another demolition program with grant funding. Minor said the city is talking with another grant writer so the city can take down and remove more vacant structures in Dadeville. In other action the Dadeville City Council also: • Approved a proclamation declaring Feb. 7 to Feb. 14 as Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week. • Approved a refund request for a business license. • Approved recreation center rentals. • Learned a speed limit study on North Loop Road is still ongoing. • Learned discussions are still ongoing for cleanup of two nuisance properties on East Lafayette Street. • Learned discussion is still ongoing on the removal of weather sirens. Citizens are encouraged to register with Tallapoosa Alert in addition to using other devices such as weather radios to get information about severe weather. The next meeting of the Dadeville City Council is Tuesday, Feb. 12 with a 5 p.m. pre-council discussion and regular meeting starting at 5:30 p.m.

New Site council approves gym use By CLIFF WILLIAMS Staff Writer
Bree Walton sat in her final New Site Town Council on Tuesday night but not before helping the council make an important decision about the old gym and hearing from town attorney Mack Clayton about the need to establish council districts. The council said again it wants to renovate the gym as a practice facility for Horseshoe Bend School, but some members had qualms over safety issues. Clayton told the council as long as certain issues such as closing the basement and bringing life safety measures up to code are addressed, the gym could be used for practice. “It is up to the town to determine if it is safe,” Clayton said. “The insurance company is satisfied.” Clayton said structural engineers had determined the building sound and the state fire marshal wants life safety issues brought up to code for the facility to be used for practice. Councilmember Toby Hanson was worried about the safety issue in regards to the balcony seating. It was decided the balcony will be blocked off and not used. Ultimately all members of the council approved the use of the gym as a practice facility for the school after the life safety issues were brought up to code and the balcony blocked off from use. Clayton said the town is in violation of state law since councilmembers are elected at large. “It is pretty plain,” Clayton told the council. “The statute says we have to have districts. We are not doing it.” Clayton explained the council would need to draw districts, approve them, pass them along to the county election officials and the next election run for office by district. Clayton said the issue needed to be resolved 60 days before the next election. Rep. Ed Oliver was at Tuesday’s meeting to award a proclamation to Virginia Yates in memory of her husband, coach Bryan Yates. “This is for someone special to everybody,” Oliver said as he handed Yates the proclamation. “This is what the legislature thinks about coach Yates.” New Site police chief Phillip Weddle told the council it is time to start looking at another police vehicle as the department’s 2014 vehicle is starting to have issues. “We just had a $1,600 repair on it,” Weddle said. “It is also in the rotation to be replaced this year.” Weddle also said the council should consider
at least a part-time officer as the department’s comp time is building up with little time to use it. “I have 20 hours from just last week,” Weddle said. “We are acquiring it quicker than we can use it.” Weddle said the issue is the department is getting more calls than ever. With budgeting coming up soon, the council consented to start looking at a new vehicle but it was suggested to hang onto the older vehicle to have a backup vehicle and to have a vehicle for a possible part-time officer. Weddle said the fire department had 27 EMS calls since Dec. 15. “It is more than I can ever remember,” Weddle said. “The response time for an ambulance has been about 20 to 30 minutes.” The area has coverage from Tallapoosa EMS but it could be responding from almost anywhere. The area is also covered by Alexander City but the call volume there would keep the department from providing consistent coverage. Mayor Phil Blasingame said he would talk to Ivy Creek again about having an ambulance from Tallapoosa EMS stationed in New Site. He said the last time the company looked at it, there was not enough call volume for it to put an ambulance in the area full time. All agreed there is no clear answer to the issue. Blasingame told the council it would declare Walton’s seat open at the next meeting and review applications for her replacement at the second meeting in February. In other action the New Site Town Council also: • Voted to go into executive session to discuss an item listed under “old business” on
the agenda. Clayton said the town had no pending litigation on the matter. The council returned to regular session after 15 minutes. • Learned the town is awaiting federal approval for grants to establish a medical clinic and pharmacy in New Site. “The state has approved us for $200,000,” Blasingame said. “We are waiting on the feds to approve it and we know what is going on in Washington.” • Learned the water improvement project has started. The project changes out many of the water meters, makes improvements to increase water pressure and provides backup power for the pumps near Hillabee Creek. As part of the ongoing water improvements, Blasingame said information has been submitted to Alabama Rural Water for a water rate survey. • Learned town clerk Shelia Fuller will be going to a workshop on a grant the town received. It will be used to change out the lights in the gym. • Blasingame told the council the new chairs and tables had arrived for the community room and quotes are being sought for painting and new floor covering. • Learned the storage building should be erected soon at the park and cement will needed to allow the storage of equipment. The council also learned of an issue with the recreation field’s P.A. system. Councilmember Mickey Carter said county commissioner John McKelvey left a $500 donation from his discretionary funds for youth sports. The next meeting of the New Site Town Council is 5 p.m. Monday, Feb. 4.

Animals Wall said with a laugh. She said they have a puppy and three grown dogs to care for and her children like to help. “They love watering and feeding them, especially my little girl — she is a big-time animal lover,” Wall said. Chandler encourages others to follow the example set by Wall and other parents. “Most kids these days have a lot given to them during the year and it’s not much to give a little bit or give your whole birthday,” she said. It’s not the fault of a dog or cat

ravel our roads and streets and you see it everywhere — trash. Bottles, cans, wrappers and more can be seen at stop signs, next to guardrails and on sidewalks. Surely this is just from a vehicle where someone has left open a window and it slips out or blows out of the back of a truck, but no. People are pulling up almost anywhere and dumping clothes, childhood trophies and awards and family photographs that appear to be packed up to go to a new home. A new home all right, but instead of moving them into a new house to help remember the past, owners are dumping right on the side of the road and it is just wrong and something needs to be done about it. Garbage cans are everywhere. They are at our homes. They are at the gas pumps when we fill up. They are in the parks when we visit them. We shouldn’t see the beer cans from last night’s party or the wrapper from this morning’s biscuit on the side of the road. Use the garbage cans readily available at home and where we shop. For those other items, dispose of them in the correct way. The Tallapoosa County Commission has Throw Away Days coming next month. Take advantage of the provided dumpsters to dispose of unwanted things. We all have things we no longer want or need — clothes, toys and more. Before throwing things away, take a look at what you have. Can some of it be donated to a needy family or places like the Salvation Army or Tallapoosa Christian Crisis Center? If some items fit the bill pull them aside to donate. For those items unfit to be donated, hold onto them until you can throw them away. We shouldn’t have to, but it should be noted, thrown away in the proper way. There are plenty of options available and hopefully more options will come about so we can keep the area clean.

Feel the Byrne on term limits
B
radley Byrne has developed a habit ever since he was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2013. He keeps trying to fire himself with no success. Only in Congress, right? Byrne (R-AL), a fourterm representative from Fairhope, has for the fourth time introduced or co-sponsored a bill calling for term limits for every member of Congress. It’s nothing as short as the time assistant coaches usually stay with Nick Saban but it’s 12 years and in Washington that’s plenty long enough to achieve something grand, do nothing or become debauched. Intriguingly, Byrne has much more support for term limits among the nation’s voters than the ones those voters voted for. “I’ve never been able to get a Democratic member to sign on to the bill or even to say they’d be willing to support it if it came up for a vote,” Byrne said. Republicans, he asserted, would support it near unanimously. A widely cited McLaughlin and Associates national poll in 2018 showed 82 percent of respondents across diverse political, racial and social spectrums want term limits. Two years earlier, a Rasmussen Reports national poll found 74 percent of likely U.S. voters favored term limits and President Donald Trump, limited to two terms himself, has said he supports the idea. If term limits are good enough for the president of the United States, they should be good enough for everybody else. Byrne’s House Joint Resolution 25 would limit members of the House of Representatives to six two-year terms and Senate members to a pair of sixyear terms. He’s tried this before, of course, but still doesn’t see himself as a Don Quixote figure jousting with windmills, which were probably subsidized with
JIMMY WIGFIELD Managing Editor taxpayer dollars given by some doddering lawmakers who have been in Congress since three channels were all you could watch on TV. “Sometimes you fight fights you don’t have the best chances of winning because you’re making a point as well but I want to win the fight — I want to pass the Constitutional amendment,” Byrne said. “You put this out there in front of the American people, the American people are going to love it. But we’ve got to get it out of Congress with the supermajority votes that the Constitution requires and that is a challenge. I’m not going to make light of it. But I don’t mind facing challenges.” Experience and seniority are virtues in many cases but we all know the longer politicians stay in office, especially in Washington, the more susceptible they are to be influenced by special interests and lobbyists and the more they embrace the power and the perks. Term limits are a cure for that. Power is what many of them crave and you don’t acquire power without climbing a long ladder. Studies show the average tenure of congressional leadership is more than 20 years, according to a 2018 survey by termlimits.com. Our Founding Fathers didn’t want career politicians infesting government. George Washington served two terms as president then retired. He thought it unseemly to continue. He was right. If you’re wondering if Byrne is purely partisan by saying Democrats don’t want term limits because they are addicted to government control,
remember this fact — the top 10 longest tenures of all time, between 48 and 59 years in Congress, all belong to Democrats. If a law could have been passed allowing them to serve after death, they’d still be sitting there, reeking of formaldehyde and perhaps Lavoris but probably making more sense than when they were alive. “They like government,” Byrne said of Democrats. “That’s sort of what motivates them. They believe government is a good thing, and they think their service in government is a good thing, and they don’t think they should be limited.” Byrne, who will be 64 in February, could probably hold his seat in the House for as long as he wants. Byrne has won with at least 63 percent of the vote each time he has been opposed and has hinted of running for the U.S. Senate against incumbent Democrat Doug Jones in 2020. Even then, Byrne said, he cannot remain fruitful in Washington for perpetuity and will continue to insist on term limits. “This will be something I will put in every time I’m here and the time I’m here will be limited,” Byrne said. “I mean, practically speaking, I think we all have to understand that there’s a time in which you’ve sort of done what you can do and it’s time to turn it over to somebody else. “And so I’m going to know when I’ve done my thing and it’s time to turn it loose, let somebody else do it. I have the benefit of having a wife who has a real good understanding of all these things. And if I don’t, if I’m not self-aware enough to know it’s time for me to go, she’s going to tell me to go and I’m going to do what she tells me to do.” Jimmy Wigfield is the managing editor of The Record.

Food Bank of East Alabama collects food for area residents Editor’s Note: This is part of a series of profiles on the 28 agencies that receive funding through the Lake Martin Area United Way. Currently, the United Way is holding its 2019 fundraising campaign, “Be a Lifesaver of Hope.” To learn how to help, contact the United Way at 256-329-3600 or at www. unitedwaylakemartin.org.

unger is a quiet problem which wears many faces. According to the organization Feeding America, one in eight Americans struggle with hunger every day. No matter what hunger may look like in the community, there are agencies ready to help tackle the problem and provide for those in need, such as the Food Bank of East Alabama. The Auburn-based food bank serves Tallapoosa, Macon, Lee, Randolph, Chambers, Russell and Barbour counties. According to director Martha Henk, the food bank does not directly distribute the items it collects to the public. Instead, the food goes to non-profit agencies and churches which engage in their own outreach programs in their communities. “Every day, hundreds of pounds of food and grocery products arrive at the food bank from food drives, grocery stores, wholesalers, retailers and other food banks,” Henk said. “An average of 84,000 pounds of surplus products are handled in the product recovery operation each month. Next, the food goes into food boxes by category and these boxes are stored in the warehouse and are immediately available to our partner agencies through our inventory system. When an agency places their order, they also choose a day and time to pick up the food. Upon arrival, the food they preordered will have been pulled from the warehouse and palletized. Every weekday, partner agencies can be seen at the food bank having their orders loaded into cars, vans, trucks and buses.” Throughout the area Food Bank of East Alabama covers, Henk said 240 agencies partnered with the food bank reach a monthly average of 33,000 people. Loaves and Fishes, headquartered in Dadeville, is one of the programs receiving food from the food bank. Cecilia Taunton, the director of Loaves and

Fishes, shared a handful of stories she said reflect the impact the program has in its community, as well as how beneficial the partnership between Loaves and Fishes and the Food Bank of East Alabama has been. “B. recently came for a first visit to Loaves and Fishes and she was unsure of how the pantry operated,” Taunton said. “She receives DSS (Department of Social Services) and her husband has recently become unemployed. She was referred to the pantry by the Crisis Center in Alexander City. With emotion in her face, she said she hoped the extra groceries would help reduce the choices they were having to make between food or medicine for herself and her husband. “K. and her husband are newly experiencing the empty nest and it has been very challenging for her. She was referred to the pantry years ago

and during the past 10 to 12 years, during times of unemployment and illnesses for her and her husband, the pantry helped feed their family. She has been to other agencies through the years but loves Loaves and Fishes because it offers food that she says a family can actually cook and eat. She especially appreciates the fresh produce and bread.” Other stories Taunton shared included a widower and cancer survivor who has been coming to the pantry for years and appreciates the food and the love he receives at Loaves and Fishes, as well as a woman who not only receives food from the group but also volunteers at the center in Dadeville. With an estimated 17.9 percent of Tallapoosa County facing food insecurity, according to Henk, agencies such as Food Bank of East Alabama and the partnerships they form with groups such as Loaves and Fishes become even more important.

DOUBLE-EDGED SPLIT Tiger comeback falls short against ECHS

Dadeville’s PJ Eason looks for a pass during a fast break in the second half of Tuesday night’s win over Elmore County. Above left: Elmore County coach Rodney Taylor returned to Dadeville, where he was the head coach for 16 years.
Dadeville cut a 16-point halftime deficit to just five points but late turnovers doomed the Tigers in a 43-34 home loss to Elmore County on Tuesday night. Dadeville’s girls basketball team turned the ball over six times in the final frame to fall for the seventh time in its last eight games. “Turnovers got the best of us,” Dadeville coach Pam Holloway said. “I’ve been trying to work with them on drills and different things to keep them focused mentally. We keep hurting ourselves with those turnovers.” The Tigers (5-12) got off to a slow start, falling behind 12-2 with 1:31 to go in the opening quarter. Elmore County grabbed seven offensive rebounds in the first half, including a putback from Madison Britt in the final minute to put the Panthers ahead 27-11 at the break. See GIRLS • Page B5

Hurts made right decision for himself
W
hen Jalen Hurts entered the 2018 SEC Championship and brought Alabama back from the ashes against Georgia, you’d have thought Christ himself had walked out on the field in Atlanta. Hurts was lauded as this amazing player and human being who put his team before himself and who elected to stay true to the Crimson Tide despite the fact his starting job was stolen by young gun Tua Tagovailoa. He was put on a pedestal and called an inspiration. All of those things may very well be true in Hurts’ case. But what did they get him? Sure, he was the golden hero for a few weeks, but did he earn back his starting job? No. Did they earn him a chance to compete for Alabama in the College Football Playoffs? Nope. And while I’m all about putting your team before yourself, there’s a fine line of when a player should be selfish. In my book, Hurts has every right to be selfish, and his transfer to the University of See ARBOGAST • Page B2
said. “With the area play coming up, it’s almost time for that one and done and he’s been playing pretty good for us right now.” Eason led the Tigers in scoring and added seven rebounds, four blocks, two steals and two assists. Eason said once the defense started bringing more energy, it made the offensive end a lot easier. “I look for my scoring first and then I look for them to drop down on me so I can kick it to my open teammate,” Eason said. “I want to go up with it but if I feel like my teammate has it, I’m going to pass it out.” Elmore County (4-17) did not have the size to match 6-foot-9 Eason on the inside.

DRAWING ATTENTION Shaw receives 3 offers from Power 5 schools
By LIZI ARBOGAST Sports Editor
One of the things Reeltown football coach Matt Johnson always says about Eric Shaw is he draws so much attention on the field. As a run-heavy offense, the Rebels don’t need to call on their 6-foot-5 wide receiver very often. But that doesn’t mean he’s not essential to their success. “Obviously it’s just his presence for our scheme,” Johnson said. “When you line his presence up out there at receiver, you’re not going to get a one-on-one matchup.” Now, not only is Shaw drawing attention from other teams, he’s drawing attention from college recruiters. Already with an offer from Central Michigan in the fall, Shaw received offers from Texas A&M and West Virginia last week, and Tuesday, he got a scholarship offer from Auburn University. “It’s really special, but I really didn’t expect it,” Shaw said. “It all came out of nowhere. I kinda knew there were teams that wanted me, but I thought the injury would affect it. I thought they would be scared to offer me.” Shaw is coming off ACL surgery that caused him to miss five games of his junior season, but it hasn’t seemed to thwart top Division I colleges from wanting him. Texas A&M made him an official

offer Tuesday and WVU joined the list Thursday afternoon. Johnson said he expects more coming very soon. Like Shaw, Johnson said he was a bit surprised by the timing of the offers especially given Shaw’s injury. But Johnson said he hasn’t been surprised by the quality of schools looking at Shaw. “He’s got the size and he’s
got the ability, but the thing that a lot of people don’t realize is he’s just as good in the classroom,” Johnson said. “He’s getting offers from great athletic programs, yeah, but these are also great schools. His hard work has really paid off.” According to Johnson, it’s been nearly a decade since a football player from Reeltown
has gone on to play Division I. Shaquille Roberson, who is Shaw’s cousin, played for UAB in the early 2010s. Although there may have been more, Johnson could recall only one former Rebel who has played football for a Power 5 school. “It really makes me feel like you can come from See SHAW • Page B5

The Dadeville Record continued from Page B1
Oklahoma is absolutely the right decision for him. Hurts did everything for Alabama. He was nearly flawless during his two-year career as a starter for the Tide, finishing with a 26-2 record. He led them to back-to-back College Football Playoff championships, and he was named SEC Offensive Player of the Year in 2016. But Hurts had one bad game. His 2017 championship performance against Georgia was less than stellar, I’ll admit that. He couldn’t seem to find his targets and looked overwhelmed in one of the biggest games of his life. OK, but it was one bad game. All summer long, Alabama coach Nick Saban told fans and the media Hurts was performing up to par, that he and Tagovailoa were in fierce competition. Now, who knows? That could’ve just been coach speak from Saban, but it’s hard to imagine Hurts’ one bad performance somehow negated everything he had done for Alabama up to that point. It’s hard to imagine if Hurts had’ve been the starter for the Tide this season they wouldn’t have gone just as far. But that being said, Hurts was named the backup for 2018, a role he took willingly — well, maybe not willingly, but he did so with dignity. And even still, Hurts finished with more than 750 passing yards as a backup. He still continued to tack onto his already gaudy numbers, and finished his career at Alabama with more than 5,500 passing yards, 48 touchdowns and only 12 interceptions — nine of which came when he was a freshman. Now, onto Hurts’ decision to transfer to Oklahoma. Again, I truly respect the fact Hurts stayed with Alabama for this season; I respect the fact he had the “next man up” mentality and was ready to step in at a moment’s notice. I’m glad he got his moment in the sun one last time as an Alabama quarterback. All that being said, Hurts no longer owes Alabama anything. College football players, in general, don’t owe their teams anything. This is a topic for another column, but let’s just remember for a minute how much money Hurts is making for the University of Alabama and how much money he is getting in return. At the end of the day, college football is a business, and even though these players aren’t getting paid, they have to act like businessmen. It’s not personal. Hurts has an opportunity to play at Oklahoma, something it was clear he no longer had at Alabama. I’m sure Hurts loved his time at Alabama but what he loved most about it was playing football. Moreover, Oklahoma is a legit team with regular opportunities to compete for national championships, which is where Hurts wants to be. The idea of Hurts going to Maryland, or even Miami, was ludicrous. Sure, he could’ve been the savior for either of those programs, but even if he turned them around so completely, he wasn’t going to compete for a title there. Also, Lincoln Riley’s system seems to be much better suited for Hurts, and let’s also remember the last two Heisman Trophy winners have been quarterbacks who have transferred to Oklahoma for their final seasons. This is exactly the right decision for Hurts, and his respect for and from Alabama and its fans shouldn’t be lost because he needed to make the right decision for himself.

The most effective way to sample is by hunterharvested deer and working with ALDOT (Alabama Department of Transportation) to identify roadkills.” Above all, Sykes said he wants hunters to continue to pursue deer just like they always have. “Again, this is not something to cause people to quit hunting,” he said. “We need them to become educated on what CWD is. Don’t rely on what they’ve heard at hunting camp or what they saw on Facebook. Talk to us to try to understand the disease and what we’re doing to try to prevent it.” Sykes reiterated how hunting, especially deer hunting, is a cornerstone in Alabama’s culture and economy. Hunting has an almost $2 billion impact annually on Alabama’s economy. “This is not a hunter issue,” he said. “This is not even a deer hunting issue.

The Wetumpka Herald
PUZZLES & HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 20-April 19) Your work ethic becomes a topic of conversation when you least expect it. You have a need to be thorough and complete. Open up a discussion with co-workers or a friend about a long-term emotional goal. You might not like all the feedback, but people are coming from a caring place. Tonight: With friends. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Let your mind wander when presented with issues or problems. Your ingenuity emerges with unusual and sometimes funny solutions. You cannot underestimate the power of your libidinal energies. Others want you to take the lead in a key project. Follow your heart. Tonight: Being noticed wherever you are. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Getting away from tension at home continues to be a major priority, like it or not. You might be tired and wondering why you are facing such emotional hurdles in your personal life. Perhaps downgrading the idea of responsibilities and diÉ&#x2030;culties to passages might help you regain some of your resilience. Tonight: Go with the Ă&#x2026;ow. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You seem to come up with the right question and conversation for the moment. Be careful about contradicting someone who says everything is perfect in his or her life. Your job is not to bust othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; chops but to help them become more secure so they can be reality-based. Tonight: Spicing up the night. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Defer to a partner or close friend who seems to have the energy to meet up and deal with a certain situation in your life. You could be overwhelmed by caring and feeling nurtured because of the other partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s willingness to pitch in and be more open. Tonight: Let the good feelings unfurl. Say â&#x20AC;&#x153;thank youâ&#x20AC;? as only you can. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your eÉ&#x2030;ciency comes through one more time. You could wonder about the best way to handle a problem. Trust that you will Ă&#x201E;nd it and resolve the issue. You will celebrate this event and perhaps go overboard. Listen to what is shared
with you. Tonight: Stop and buy a token of aÉ&#x2C6;ection for a loved one. It can be a card. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Midday you pick up and are full of energy and prepared to do your very best in dealing with a special friend who could be touchy or diÉ&#x2030;cult. This behavior comes with this personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bohemian ways. You need to accept both sides of his or her personality. Tonight: Adjust your plans if need be. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You will accomplish much more in the morning. Use it to the max. The good news is that you will Ă&#x201E;nd agreement in a project you are working on. Do not push to get your way. It will happen. Use the late afternoon for a private or personal matter. Tonight: Play it low-key. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be a passing problem to a boss, older friend or loved one. You seem directed and sure of yourself. Plan on meeting up with some special people in your community or your circle of friends in the p.m. You will love the reception you get. Tonight: Where the action is. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Prepare to act. You have been hemming and hawing, and hesitating. This could indicate that you need more time to come to a conclusion. Your feelings might be a lot closer to the surface than you realize. Express your thoughts. Tonight: Splurge a little. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might be overly dissecting a Ă&#x201E;nancial matter or a dealing with an important partner. The situation could be changing right in front of your very eyes. Get feedback. Talk to the other people involved, and be willing to update your opinions. Tonight: Try a new adventure or type of happening. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Your sensitivity to the moment makes a big diÉ&#x2C6;erence to other parties. Be aware where they are coming from. You might see a personal matter a lot diÉ&#x2C6;erently as a result. Open up to new ideas. Try them out. Tonight: Grab a favorite person and go out.

the biggest difference. “We got down but made a run and actually took a lead for a minute,” Taylor said. “I was proud of them. The difference in the third quarter was we weren’t rebounding. We didn’t rebound, they stretched it out a little bit and we had to go man. We just don’t match up well with them.” DJ Patrick led the way on offense for the Panthers. He finished with 24 points, scoring 13 in the second quarter to momentarily put Elmore County ahead just before halftime. Patrick was held to just three points in the third quarter as the Tigers outscored their opponent 20-9. The Panthers allowed nine secondchance points in the frame. “In the end, there were too many rebounds,” Taylor said. “We could have easily had a lead at half but I think the difference in the third quarter was you can’t give them multiple chances to score and we did it.” Before the night ended, Taylor took a minute to catch up with Foster. With tears in his eyes, Taylor talked about how special it was to return to that gym and to be on the same sideline as Foster again. “It was pretty cool,” Taylor said. “Me and this man have been together a long time, he’s like my brother. I’m glad we had a good showing.”

Britt finished with 10 points and a game-high 15 rebounds for her second double-double. She set a career high with eight offensive rebounds and scored six second-chance points. “Madison Britt played the whole game and she stepped up really big for us,” Elmore County coach Amy Rachel said. “She took some pressure off and rebounded a ton. She’s come a long way and she seems to be picking it up at the right time.” After the Panthers built the 16-point lead, Dadeville responded with defensive pressure to turn the tables on the visitors. The Tigers grabbed six steals in the third quarter and cut the lead to seven points with 1:33 to go in the frame after a steal and layup by freshman Nhylee Banks. “I think they picked up the intensity a little bit defensively,” Holloway said.
“We tried some different things and put some pressure on them. We still didn’t capitalize on all of them but it made a difference for us in that third quarter.” Banks continued her performance into the fourth quarter and scored her final two points with 3:08 to go, cutting the lead to 36-31. She finished with a team-high 16 points. “The majority of our team is freshmen,” Holloway said. “I think highly of them but even though they’re young, they can play with a lot more intensity. I am still grateful that they still work as hard as they do and they’re getting better.” Elmore County responded with a 7-1 run to pull away from the Tigers for its fifth consecutive victory. The Panthers were without guards Kendall Downey and CK Bolton on Tuesday and needed their depth to step up in the win.
“We knew we were going to have to have some people step in and grow up a little bit tonight,” Rachel said. “With Kendall injured and Courtney out sick, it’s not what you want going into area. It was good for us though because we had to have some people step up. Hopefully that’s going to benefit us down the road.” Dadeville freshman Janiya Wyckoff finished with 12 points and 12 rebounds in the loss. Madison Traylor led the Panthers with 13 points and added nine rebounds. “We just keep working on things we know we’re having problems with,” Holloway said. “I see them in practice and I know what they’re capable of but when we get in the game, they’re missing easy layups. I know its mental so we have to keep working on that and hopefully they don’t give up.”

anywhere,” Shaw said. “It doesn’t matter if you go to a small school. It’s really just exciting. I’m getting a chance to go to college, and I can play the sport that I love to play.” A stud on both sides of the ball, Shaw said he’s being mostly recruited on defense. Johnson said some schools like him as an outside linebacker while others are looking at him at more of a tight end or utility player on offense. Shaw said he’s a long way from making an official decision but is ultimately looking for a school that not only has a great football program but also is strong academically. He grew up an Alabama fan, so he said it would be great to get an offer from the Crimson Tide but for now, he’s just enjoying the ride. “I think it’s just excitement for him right now,” Johnson said. “This is an extremely
big deal for us, and it’s a great experience for him. There’s not been a whole lot of SEC and ACC offers come out of Reeltown High School, so it’s really exciting for him. It probably will get overwhelming for him at some point, but right now I think he’s really just enjoying it.” Reeltown senior Trey O’Neal is also being recruited and has a pair of Division II offers from Tuskegee and West Alabama. Johnson said he expects O’Neal to make a decision within the next week or so. File / The Record
Reeltown’s Eric Shaw (6) is being recruited mainly on defense but also has some interest at tight end. He has received Power 5 offers from Texas A&M, West Virginia and Auburn and has five total Division I offers so far.

of life issue. We need people to understand what’s going on, and we need their assistance to gather these samples in the most efficient way so we can stay on top of it. “Heaven forbid, if it does get here, we will be prepared to mitigate the risks as much as possible.” Previously, tissue samples had to be sent out of state to be tested for CWD. In 2018, WFF provided funds for the Alabama Department of Agriculture to purchase CWD testing equipment, which was set up at Auburn University.
The equipment and technician have been certified by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and can test up to 90 samples per day. Conservation Commissioner Chris Blankenship said the new CWD testing equipment speeds up the state’s response time considerably. “We don’t have to wait on anybody,” Blankenship said. “We take our samples to the Department of Agriculture lab at Auburn University. We will get those test results quickly and be able to respond as soon as possible.”
The freezers for the selfservice sample stations are located in Fayette, Lamar, Marion, Franklin, Lauderdale and Colbert counties and are available to receive deer head samples 24 hours a day, seven days a week. At the self-service locations, hunters must first remove the deer’s head with 4-6 inches of neck attached. For bucks, antlers can be removed at the base of each antler or by removing the skull plate before bagging the head. Hunters will then place the head in the provided plastic bag and tie
it closed. They will need to complete all sections of the Biological Sample Tag, and attach the tag to the bag with a zip tie. Hunters will take the bottom receipt portion of the Biological Sample Tag before placing the bagged head in the freezer. All materials needed to drop off a sample are provided at each freezer location. Hunters can also have deer sampled at any WFF District Office (www.outdooralabama. com/wildlife-section) or at the WFF office in Marengo County at 1105 Bailey Dr., Demopolis, Ala., 36732, phone
number 334-289-8030. WFF offices are open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Before dropping off the sample, hunters should call ahead to make sure a biologist is available. Sykes said the test results will be emailed to the hunter within three to four weeks. Currently, self-service freezers are located throughout northwest Alabama only because of the increased surveillance samples needed in the response zones of the CWD-positive locations in Mississippi and Tennessee.
