The Tallapoosa County E911 Board will have a new 190-foot radio communication tower soon, as the Alexander City City Council voted to provide the property at its meeting Monday.

GETTING AN UPGRADE Tallapoosa County E911 to erect new radio tower

By JIMMY WIGFIELD Managing Editor

The Alexander City City Council voted unanimously Monday evening to provide property for the Tallapoosa County E911 Board to erect a new 190-foot radio communication tower. The E911 board will pay $290,000 for the tower and a building for affiliated equipment, according to county E911

coordinator Anita Haggerty, who said the funds will come from money collected via phone bills. The tower, part of the 911 board’s efforts to implement a countywide digital communications system, will be located at the Mt. Airy water tank site at 575 Tallapoosa St. “The equipment presently on the water tower, it’s OK but it would be better if there was a tower that was a little See TOWER • Page A3

Fifth Judicial Circuit Court Judge Ray Martin on Monday denied Justin Kyle Hutcherson’s motion to remand indictments on 61 counts involving an investigation into the possession of child pornography to district court. Hutcherson’s attorney Zachary Alsobrook filed the motion Friday after Hutcherson was arrested again after his initial arrest in January. “The State of Alabama is attempting to railroad through 13 criminal counts against the defendant without so much as a preliminary hearing being had,” Alsobrook’s motion read. “…The state is doing so because it knows that upon the complaining officer being cross-examined that this court would have certainly thrown out the majority if not all the counts against the defendant. If the state wanted to bring this matter before the grand jury for probable cause, it had that ability prior to arresting the defendant on a citizen’s warrant.” Alsobrook asked for Hutcherson to be released on his original bail of $150,000 as the new bond of $337,000 is hard on his family. Martin said he would take the issue of bond under See HUTCHERSON • Page A3

telecast. Ivey, who was elected to her first four-year term in November and is considered one of the nation’s most popular governors, drew a standing ovation from legislators when she said, “This is a challenge that is felt by every Alabamian, clearly making it a bipartisan issue. As governor, I say enough is enough. Now is the time to rebuild Alabama.” It will be easier to pass the gas tax increase in a special session, which requires only a simple majority. In the regular session, bills connected with the state budget must pass with a three-fifths majority. With the regular session suspended until March 19, Ivey made it clear her proposal to raise the state’s gas tax for the first time since 1992 — 10 cents a gallon over the next three years — is the centerpiece of her 2019 agenda. It is projected to raise $320 million annually once it is fully phased in. “And I want to be crystal clear this money will be scrutinized and watched over — every single penny,” she said to robust applause. “There will be strong accountability measures to make certain these monies are spent solely on transportation infrastructure. Period. … A renewed investment in infrastructure will lead to safer roads, economic prosperity and an enhanced quality of life.” Ivey said she wants to end the practice of diverting funds from the Alabama Department of Transportation to help the state’s court system and law enforcement agencies. “I believe we should begin to unwind this outdated approach,” she said. “And, in fact, the budgets I am presenting will cut this annual transfer in half without hurting the court system or our hard-working state law enforcement officers.” Ivey said neighboring states are increasing their revenue for their transportation budgets and Alabama must do the same, citing major congestion on interstates and the fact county governments are resurfacing their roads on a 56-year cycle and replacing bridges on a 186-year schedule. “Folks, that’s almost as long as Alabama has been a state,” Ivey said. Ivey, standing upon a generally improving economy, a landslide victory in last year’s gubernatorial election and with Republican dominance in the legislature, outlined a bold agenda for the state. “Ladies and gentlemen, this evening, I am proud to report that the state of our state is growing stronger each day,” she said. “Our state’s recent history, combined with the willing attitude I sense in the chamber this evening, will aid in our quest to overcome our long-neglected issues and will help us achieve even greater prosperity for the entire state. We will accomplish this together because we are Alabama and this is our time.” Ivey made the following major funding proposals: • A 2-percent raise for all state employees and enough money to hire 50 more state troopers. • A 4-percent raise for all teachers — pre-K through community college. • An extra $7 million for mental health programs. • An extra $25 million to expand the state’s nationally recognized First Class Pre-K program and expand it by 193 classrooms. • An additional $31 million in the General Fund budget to hire 500 new correctional officers and increase pay for all prison security personnel. Ivey said reforming the “horrendous” prison system is another priority. “Our next step must be to address the issue of understaffing to improve

“There will be strong accountability measures to make certain these monies are spent solely on transportation infrastructure. Period.” — Gov. Kay Ivey our recruiting and retention efforts,” she said. “Alabama is currently under a federal court order requiring the state to roughly double the number of corrections officers over the next two years. If we fail to resolve the apparent issue of understaffing in our prisons, federal courts will dictate what needs to happen in our own state. This is an Alabama problem that must have an Alabama solution.” Ivey touted Alabama’s economy — including the technology, automobile and aerospace industries — as a potential regional and national powerhouse. “Alabama’s economy is breaking records some thought we would never see,” she said. “In 2018, alone, Alabama achieved a historic total of $8.8 billion in new capital investments which created more than 17,000 new and future jobs for our people. Major technology companies like Amazon, Facebook, Google and Shipt are showing the rest of the country what it means to do business in our state. “Alabama is on track to be the No. 2 auto-producing state in the nation in less than five years. This is remarkable for a state that 25 years ago did not produce a single car, truck or SUV. “Our aerospace industry is once again redefining the futures of both our state and nation. With the recent groundbreaking for Airbus’ second assembly line, the city of Mobile is positioned to be one of the top four cities in the world for aerospace manufacturing. And up in Huntsville, construction began on Blue Origin’s $200 million rocket production facility, further solidifying Alabama’s critical role in putting the United States at the forefront of space exploration.” Ivey said Alabama’s 3.7-percent unemployment rate in 2018 was its lowest ever but she is not satisfied. “There are still some 80,000 Alabamians seeking employment opportunities,” she said. “And to those across our state who are still searching, I urge you to not lose faith because we are not going to rest on our efforts and we will not leave you behind.” At the beginning of her address, Ivey asked for a moment of silence for the 23 people killed by Sunday’s tornadoes in Lee County. They included “young children who had barely experienced life, mothers, fathers, friends and neighbors,” she said. “It is during times like these that we turn to the good Lord, asking for His continued comfort and healing hands. We also give special thanks for the emergency responders and local law enforcement. “While there is always uncertainty in what tomorrow may bring, there is absolute certainty in the resiliency of the people of Alabama. After all, we’ve done it before and we will do it again. This is a time for all of Alabama, and our entire nation, to rally behind these good people. Together, we will bring Lee County back to its feet.”

Hutcherson consideration while Alsobrook prepared the motion. Alsobrook stated in his motion Hutcherson placed a camera in his own home and had certain images saved to his personal computer. Hutcherson waived formal arraignment and entered a plea of not guilty; Alsobrook asked about discovery and district attorney Jeremy Duerr said some evidence is available. “There are some videos we can make copies of,” he said “…I don’t think we can make copies of others as it would put us in the position of distribution (pornography of a minor). We can certainly make them available so they can view them.” Duerr also said Alsobrook and Hutcherson could come to his office to view evidence. “We can set them up in the grand jury room,” Duerr said. “They can watch and make as many notes as they want. They just need to schedule it with us. If (Hutcherson) is still in custody, a deputy would need to be just outside the door.” Martin was satisfied with the arrangement but said he would see what could be done to make copies available to the defense along with a protection order to insure the videos did not make the public domain. Martin also called other prominent cases Monday morning. Martin did not rule on reinstating bond for Anthony Davon Parker on Monday. Parker is accused of reckless

continued from Page A1 murder and his bond was revoked in September 2018. “He picked up new charges in Jacksons Gap,” Duerr said. “He was shooting from a vehicle toward a structure.” Duerr said the new charges could be presented to a grand jury. Martin did not deny Parker’s motion to reinstate bond but said he would take it under advisement. It is alleged Parker was at the home of Jeffery Bruno off Robinson Road near Alexander City and was shooting a .45 caliber handgun in March 2017. Parker had been target shooting and 18-yearold Quentavious Arrion Reese had been at the home, before leaving in a vehicle with a group of friends. A short time later the vehicle carrying Reese returned down the road toward the home and a number of shots, allegedly fired by Parker, were directed toward the vehicle. One shot struck Reese in the head as he rode in the back seat of the vehicle, according to information heard at a preliminary hearing. Reese, who was a senior at Benjamin Russell and had been offered a basketball scholarship, was taken to Russell Medical, then flown to the University of Alabama Birmingham Medical Center, where he later died.

City and Dadeville. Monday morning Martin had his three attorneys present to try and determine a course for the cases especially since mental evaluations have been performed in one case and asked for in others. An issue with the mental evaluation was noted as the doctor who performed it is in Virginia now and could only testify by phone. Wright is also on a list for another state mental evaluation but is low on the list. Michelle Perez, who represents Wright in one of his charges, said she had found a private doctor who could perform the evaluation. Martin asked the attorneys to get together to try and figure how best to proceed. Wright is accused of killing 28-year-old LaBrandon Lamar Herron of Kellyton. Reports indicate Herron was shot multiple times in the early morning hours of Oct. 30, 2016 and died from his injuries. A second victim was also shot and Wright is also charged with attempted murder. Nicholas Seth Harrison was appointed a new attorney, Robin McIntyre, to serve as co-counsel with Tim Davis. Martin was set to hear several motions in the capital murder case but suspended the hearings until McIntyre could be brought up to speed. Harrison is accused of shooting Denzel Pope in 2017. The state has not said whether it will pursue the death penalty in the case.

How to help tornado victims:

Coming to Hands, heart and hound the House, Senate the aid of our S neighbors

A

massive EF4 tornado ripped the Beauregard community in Lee County on Sunday and Alexander City jumped in right away to help. The estimated 170 mph winds had barely moved away when the Alexander City/Tallapoosa County Rescue Squad was called on to help with recovery efforts Sunday afternoon and the Lake Martin Area United Way began collecting donations. You can bet local churches are already putting together plans to bring relief to a county that suffered at least 23 deaths as a result of the twister. This isn’t unusual. The Tallapoosa, Coosa and Elmore county areas are known for giving, compassionate people. At least three children were killed, according to county coroner Bill Harris, which makes the disaster all the more tragic. He said the children were ages 6, 9 and 10. The Alexander City/Tallapoosa County Rescue Squad was helping the Lee County coroner with manpower Sunday and Monday and planned to return to the stricken area today. After powerful storms take such a heavy toll on life and property, it’s often asked why God allows such things to happen. What should be noted is the way people rise to the occasion and help one another in times of trial. We don’t know why loved ones are taken, especially children. It’s a question that always haunts those affected for the rest of their lives. All that can be done is to bind up the wounds and heal, and strive to be as those children were — full of life and promise. Prayer is powerful and it does change things. The people of Lee County can use prayers now; ask God how you can help those who are suffering.

Not your daddy’s Democrats O

n a cold, bloodsmeared, stainless steel cart, a newborn wriggles and gasps for air while a sterile attendant rolls her away. No one shows any empathy for the little one. Under U.S. law, doctors and medical staff are not penalized in any way for failing to care for babies who survive abortion attempts. Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE) sponsored the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act along with 49 of his fellow Republican senators. The bill would have required doctors to provide medical care to babies born alive after abortion attempts or face penalties for harming a child. Last week they needed 60 votes to break a Democratic filibuster blocking the bill. The Center for Disease Control tracks the number of babies born alive after a “termination of pregnancy” in hospitals but not in abortion clinics. More than 3,000 babies are aborted every day in America, the vast majority in abortion clinics. We do not know how many babies survive abortion only to die slowly or brutally. Former president George W. Bush signed the 2002 Born Alive Infants Protection Act that declared any child born alive, even those who survived abortion attempts, was legally considered a “person,” “human being” and “child” under federal law. However, that bill has no penalties against those who break the law and do not care for the life of a child. Abortion is a political issue

DANIEL GARDNER Columnist

for Democrats, and every senator who has announced he or she is running for president in 2020 voted against protecting children who survive abortion attempts. Democrats and their kissing cousins in the mainstream media, i.e. CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, The Washington Post et al, are staunchly united in their stand against abortion survivors. Some survivors have formed The Abortion Survivor Network: More Than a Choice. (View more at www.theabortionsurvivors.com) As you might imagine, abortion survivors have a very different view of the sanctity of human life. Their stories are rarely if ever acknowledged by Democrats or their media cousins. While this life-or-death vote was being counted in the Senate, President Donald Trump was making another personal effort toward denuclearizing the Korean peninsula. Kim Jong Un was not willing to make a deal and Trump walked away with sanctions still in place. Under Trump’s watch, North Korea has stopped testing missiles and nuclear bombs, something his

predecessor was incapable of doing. It’s not much but it’s a start. Democrats and media cousins mocked Trump for losing the deal. In the House, Democrats scheduled hearings to coincide with Trump’s unprecedented efforts to negotiate peace on the Korean Peninsula. Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD), chairman of the House Oversight Committee, decided his committee had to hear testimony from Michael Cohen, a felon sentenced to three years in federal prison for tax evasion and lying to Congress among other convictions. Presiding judge William Pauley characterized Cohen’s crimes as a “veritable smorgasbord of fraudulent conduct” and “motivated by personal greed and ambition.” Coincidentally, a Rasmussen poll conducted at the end of February found 62 percent of Democrats “consider Trump a bigger danger to America than the dictator who has threatened this country with nuclear attack.” Think about that! The Democrats’ platform to defeat Trump in 2020 is founded upon abortion bordering on infanticide, the multi-trillion dollar Green New Deal, and “Trump is a racist!” These are not your daddy’s Democrats!

we won’t have to curtail generation very much, but the level will come up. If the rain starts to slow down, and the lake isn’t rising toward the summer level, we would curtail generation, even to the point of stopping generation, to bring the level up.” The water level rises according to the rule curve published by Alabama Power Company on the apcshorelines. com website. The rule curve indicates a target level of around 488 feet on April 1, a little more than halfway between the 484-foot winter pool level and the 491-foot summer pool level, which must be attained by April 19. The rule curve is designated in APC’s license to operate the dam. Though the license, which is granted by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, does not stipulate target dates between Feb. 28 and April 19, the rule curve acts as a general guide. “There’s a balance,” Goodman said. “We have to maximize flood control during the rainy parts of the year, but if we wait too long to bring the level up, we won’t have

the water to make it to summer pool by April 19.” He also said there are times – such as during a drought – when dam operators would even close the gates to the

intake pipes that power the generation turbines to bring the water level up faster, as long as downstream flow requirements also could be met. “We have the rule curve in

our license that we have to stick to. If we don’t stick to the rule curve, there has to be a driver,” Goodman added. “Flood control would be a driver to operate outside of the

rule curve. “The other day, Lake Martin got up to 488 feet, which is 4 feet above the rule curve. The driver in that case was flood control.” Despite the absence of an actual plug, Lake magazine celebrated Plug Day as the end of winter pool and the countdown to Lake Martin’s summer pool level. Posts on the magazine’s Facebook page included spoofs on what sort of plug might be effective in holding back enough water to fill Lake Martin. The magazine staff delivered bathtub plugshaped mini-muffins to the crew at Martin Dam, held an in-office celebration with more mini-muffins and ice cream and hosted giveaways throughout the day with support from the following sponsors: Sweet GaGa’s, SouthFirst Mortgage, Mitchell & Company, The Beauty Shop, Ooh La La, Tallapoosa Publishers, Hodges Vineyard, Walls Tire & Automotive, Emporium Wine and VestMate. So according to the rule curve, there are only 50 more days to summer pool on Lake Martin.

All About Our Bones

Bone Word Search

Skeletons aren’t just a fun Halloween costume! Our bones are essential. The human skeleton is a hard, bony structure that supports and protects our soft tissues, muscles, and organs. At birth, a human has around 300 bones. Throughout childhood, these bones become harder and fuse, or ELQG WRJHWKHU $V D UHVXOW DGXOWV KDYH RQO\ WRWDO ERQHV 7KH KXPDQ VNHOHWRQ LV FODVVL¿HG LQWR WZR GLႇHUHQW JURXSV WKH D[LDO VNHOHWRQ DQG WKH DSSHQGLFXODU VNHOHWRQ 7KH D[LDO VNHOHWRQ LV PDGH up of the head, neck, vertebral column, and trunk. The appendicular skeleton is made up of the hip bones (or pelvis) the pectoral bones (or shoulders), and the limbs of the body. The largest bone in the human skeletal system is the femur (thigh bone) and the smallest is found in your ear. The human hand is made up of 27 bones, while the human face has 14 bones. All of the bones in the body are connected at points called joints. Some joints move, or bend, and some do not. Movable joints, such as those in our hands, arms, and legs, are connected by ligaments and tendons. These are EDQGV RI ¿EURXV WLVVXH WKDW DWWDFK RXU VNHOHWRQ WRJHWKHU DQG ZRUNLQJ ZLWK RXU PXVFOHV DOORZ RXU bones to move. Some joints allow a greater range of motion than others.

Daneeka Michelle Thompson pleaded guilty Tuesday to firing a shot near children and possibly endangering them. Thompson, 27, of Kellyton was charged with firstdegree attempted domestic violence and 10 counts of reckless endangerment in August 2018. Thompson pleaded guilty in front of Fifth Judicial Circuit Court Judge Ray Martin to first-degree attempted assault and the 10 counts of reckless endangerment and filed an application for probation. Assistant district attorney Kevin Hall told the court Thompson had no prior convictions. The recommended sentence for first-degree attempted assault is 60 months; however first-degree assault has sentencing guidelines to provide probation. The attempted assault charge has no law-provided guidelines. Martin allowed Thompson to remain on bond while it is determined if she qualifies for probation. Martin said he would also require Thompson to attend some type of anger management training as part of her sentence. Thompson even took an advertisment out in The Alexander City Outlook shortly after the incident apologizing. Hall said the state could prove more than the 10 counts of reckless endangerment. “I think there were 26 children on the playground at the daycare,” Hall said. Alexander City Police chief Jay Turner said in August Thompson fired a shot in the direction of a city employee who was cutting grass near the city pool and officers recovered a single 9mm shell casing. Children were also on the playground of a nearby daycare resulting in the reckless endangerment charges.

Alex City man to decide on plea deal or possibly face life in prison By CLIFF WILLIAMS Staff Writer

Ronnie “Flip” Russell Jr. has until March 28 to decide between accepting a plea deal for 15 years in prison or chancing a trial where he could face life without parole for trafficking hydrocodone. “If he is convicted, the only possible sentence is life without parole,” Fifth Judicial Circuit assistant district attorney Kevin Hall said. Russell, 34, of Alexander City was arrested in March 2018 on 20 counts of unlawful distribution of a controlled substance, trafficking hydrocodone, three counts of possession of a controlled substance, first degree possession of marijuana, certain persons forbidden to possess a firearm and possession of drug paraphernalia. Hall said Russell has five previous felony convictions, including a Class B. If convicted of the trafficking charge, Alabama state law provides a sentence of life in prison or life in prison without parole because of Russell’s previous convictions. He also faces two cruelty to animal charges from 2016. The indictment on the cruelty charges stated Russell intentionally tortured a dog, causing physical injury by inflicting inhumane treatment or gross physical abuse, causing the animal prolonged pain, serious physical injury or death. Russell has charges beyond those in Tallapoosa County. His attorney Mitch Gavin, said Russell declined a plea offer in Coosa County of 15 years in prison for speeding, possession of a controlled substance and felony possession of a gun. The State of Alabama was offering Russell 15 years in prison for all of his pending charges in Tallapoosa County to run concurrently with his sentence for charges from Coosa County. Russell appeared before Judge Ray Martin on Wednesday with his attorney Mitch Gavin for plea day. Martin wanted to make sure Russell understood the prison term he would face if the case went to trial. Gavin explained he and Russell had not seen all the evidence the state had against Russell for the trafficking charge. Hall and Gavin agreed to allow Gavin and Russell to view a video investigators made of Russell trying to make a transaction before the end of March. Russell’s indictment on the trafficking charge said he possessed 4 grams of hydrocodone. Martin asked Russell to return to court March 28 with his attorney to give his answer on the plea deal. Hall said the state will be ready to proceed to trial on April 1.

The 4x400 is the last event of a meet and that’s usually make or break.

Tigers upend Opelika in offensive showdown STAFF REPORT TPI Staff

Racking up 13 hits was more than enough for Dadeville’s softball team to take down Opelika on Tuesday night in a 13-11 victory. The Tigers were tied with Opelika, 11-11, heading into the bottom of the sixth inning before taking the lead. Skylar Waldrep led off the frame with a double, and she got all the way home on a passed ball and a dropped third strike. With one out, Tori Giles kept things going with a single before Jailee Kirkland smacked a triple to drive her in and ensure the victory. All but one Tiger starter got at least one hit, and the team was led by two hitsa apiece from Isis Johnson, Makya Johnson, Cali Joes and Sidaesha Heard. Zoe Veres drove in three runs, while Kirkland plated two. Makya Johnson threw the full game, and although she allowed 11 hits, only five of the runs she gave up were earned as the Tiger defense committed four errors. Johnson struck out four and walked one. Dadeville is now 3-3 on the season and travels to Benjamin Russell today.

Savannah Hornsby then put a run on the board with an RBI single. Beulah answered right back in the top of the third and took a lead in the bottom of the fifth. Then it was Reeltown’s turn to answer with a pair of runs in the home half of the inning. This time with one out, the Rebels got three consecutive singles from McGuire, Kenzie Gibson and Studdard. McGuire scored on a passed ball, and Studdard’s single plated Gibson. Reeltown led until the top of the seventh when the Bobcats broke through for the tying run. In all, the Rebels totaled nine hits led by McGuire’s three and Peyton Ledbetter’s two. Studdard went eight innings in the circle, and despite allowing nine hits, she gave up only two earned runs.

hen I said I had never covered a state championship team in last week’s column, that wasn’t entirely accurate. My very first assignment at my last paper was covering a local team winning a state championship in softball, but to me, that didn’t count. I didn’t know that team; I didn’t know the players. It was my very first assignment, so I was covering an unknown. But Friday afternoon, I felt like I won a state championship right alongside Central Coosa. I’ve been covering this same group of guys for two years now — the Cougars graduated only two seniors from last year’s team, both of whom didn’t play all that much. I first interviewed Jeremy Freeman when he took the job as the Coosa head coach. From there, I’ve spent a lot of time getting to know him and his players. I’ve been with them through a lot of this journey, and I was overcome with emotion when Quin Brooks landed a putback with 1.8 seconds remaining to give the Cougars a 54-52 edge over Sacred Heart and the ultimate championship. My apologies if the video highlights aren’t the best; I was literally shaking and tears were welling up in my eyes. I was so not an unbiased journalist. I wanted this for them so badly, and they delivered. And there are so many moments from Friday’s game and the ensuing celebration that stick out. So instead of gushing about how proud I am of these kids, I’m gonna focus on those moments. Probably my favorite part of the day — other than winning the ’ship, of course — was when Casson Robbins put on his “CHAMPS” hat and had to push down his thick bush of hair multiple times and still couldn’t quite get it to fit. I also loved when Brandon Davis screamed my name and threw up his arms, as if we won the championship too. I pointed at him from the court and could feel his elation. What nearly broke me into tears for a second time was Freeman, who was overcome with emotion. There’s no other way to put it. With one minute left and a tie ballgame, Freeman screamed from the bench, “This is what I wanted!” three times. When the Cougars finally won, Freeman threw a towel over his face, put his hands on his knees and sobbed. Going down the bench, you could see all the emotions on those players’ faces. Noel Jones had tears streaming, Omar Gaddis and Jovon Richardson had their arms wrapped over each other, Josh McGhee had his head in his hands and Brooks’ grin was shining bright enough, it could’ve lit a blacked-out New York City. I also couldn’t help but laugh as I went into the Cougars’ locker room after the game as Freeman finally got away from the media (other than me) and talked to his team. They discussed where they’d go eat, and he said “I’m so full, I couldn’t even eat a Rice Krispie.” As the boys walked out of the locker room and I waited for another interview with Freeman, I asked Jones if I could touch the Blue Map trophy — that thing is heavier than I expected by the way. He said, “Yes ma’am; you’re part of this too.” And I told the guys to enjoy their celebration, and they screamed, “You know we will!” One final moment to leave you with. After Freeman got out of his postgame press conference and was waiting while one of his players was interviewed by the TV media, he came to me, unable to stop smiling. We hugged, and he said, “I told you I was gonna get you one, Liz.” Thank you, Freeman and all of the Cougars, for delivering. This has been an amazing ride.

Other top returners include Nyla Hayden (javelin), Raven Parker (400), Hayle Bowens (400, 800), Lydia McGinty (400, 800) and Angel Estes (1,600). Makayla Langston is a freshman who should be a strong discus thrower for the Rebels, while newcomers Vera Baker, Trinity Jordan, Ronnetra Joseph and Shantia Potts will all be worked into middle distance. Rinaysha Brown is a new 300 hurdler, while Brekia Riley should be strong in the 100 hurdles.

Reeltown takes pair of victories

With a 5-0 shutout of Montgomery Catholic under its belt, the Reeltown Rebels baseball team kept up the pace with a 12-2 defeat of Jeff Davis during Saturday’s doubleheader. Logan Hunt and Will Brooks combined for a threehit shutout. Hunt fired four innings and racked up nine strikeouts. He allowed only

continued from Page 1 one hit and one walk. Brooks entered in relief for the final three innings and gave up only two more hits. He threw three strikeouts and didn’t walk any. Offensively, the Rebels took an early 2-0 lead in the third inning as Robert Crittenden scored on passed ball and Cade Wood went home an error by the Knights’ catcher. Reeltown added three runs worth of insurance as Gabe Bryant smacked a tworun single in the top of the seventh and Crittenden again scored on a wild pitch.

In the victory, the Rebels (4-2) had only six hits but jumped on five errors and eight walks to score the win in five innings. Reeltown also got a strong pitching game from Colby Clark and Kolby Coan. Together, they gave up only five hits while striking out seven. Coan walked only one in two innings of work, while Clark didn’t walk any. On the day, Colt Adcock finished with three singles and two RBIs, while Bryant had two singles of his own and also drove in a pair of runs.

PUZZLES & HOROSCOPE ARIES (March 21-April 19) Lately, you might have gone way overboard. Today, you might wake up to the idea of making an adjustment to your schedule.

You help others feel more at ease. Tonight: Just don’t be alone. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Clear out a long-overdue project. A partner or associate might be diɉcult but still has the ability to loosen up and relax. Help this person gain a diɈerent perspective of a major issue. Tonight: A must appearance. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Partnership matters dominate the a.m. You cannot get someone to relax and get past a problem. You can do only so much. Be more easygoing about what’s happening.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You’ve done your share; however, you pitch in again on a work or personal project. You might observe but not share that this particular project could’ve been done far more simply. Later, decide to indulge a loved one. Tonight: A loved one tells you what he or she wants to do. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your creativity is profound and comes from a deep source within.

Explore your options with a friend who understands your priorities. Tonight: As you like it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You start the day on the right foot. Don’t allow someone to turn a situation upside down on you. You cannot come to terms with a problem that is constantly changing. You need to accept what might be happening.
