Aero Warriors converge on Alex City for 2015 reunion

Council to consider pact with developer New retailer may be the result

Horsepower galore on display as musclecars come to town for celebration of famed Superbird’s debut

Above, the first wave of cars in town for the Aero Warrior 2015 Reunion roll into the home of Tim Wellborn Friday morning. Left, Scott Faulkner of Peoria, Illinois drives his 1970 Superbird, while Rich Turner of Port Orange, Florida climbs into the cockpit of the 1968 Mercury Cyclone once drive by NASCAR great Tiny Lund.

Hear a rumbling noise coming from downtown this weekend? Don’t worry, it’s not a storm or an earthquake. The Hemis have come home. Wellborn Musclecar Museum owners Tim and Pam are hosting the Aero Warriors 2015 Reunion and some of the finest examples of modern day musclecars ever manufactured this weekend. Plymouth Superbirds, Dodge Daytonas and other hot rods are among about 120 of the ground-pounding, souped-up musclecars in town for a three-day festival. The purpose is to talk cars and to celebrate the introduction of what was the state-of-the art in horsepower when they hit showrooms 45 years ago. “We knew there was a lot of interest in these cars,” Wellborn said. “When you’ve been collecting these as long as I have you see the people who have a passion for these. The first one five years ago showed that. It was incredible. But with the notoriety that has come with the cars we had at Mecum Auction, the buzz for this one has even been greater than the first reunion. We See CARS, Page 3

Although it may be hard to tell exactly what the moves are all about, on Monday night the Alexander City Council will consider rescinding an earlier resolution and vote on a new resolution that could help bring a major retailer to town. On June 1, the council approved a resolution to authorize Mayor Charles Shaw to enter into a memorandum of understanding with MAB American regarding a matter of commerce. MAB is a Charlotte-based real estate development, acquisition and sales firm. While the specifics of the agreement are not a part of the agenda package for Monday’s meeting, it is believed that the deal would help prepare a site and provide infrastructure that would potentially See COUNCIL, Page 9

Two students from Alexander City are attending the state’s distinguished Alabama School of Mathematics and Science, one settling into his first year at the school and the other preparing to graduate. Nathan Haines, sophomore, is just getting adjusted to his surroundings away from home, making friends and taking midterms, while Jon Ross Sanders, a senior, is preparing for graduation, starting college, and saying goodbye to all of the friends he has made at ASMS.

The former students of the Alexander City School System went to Mobile for greater academic challenges throughout their high school years and hopes for further opportunities in college and career afterward. So far, both students seem to agree that the experience has been well worth it. Haines started at ASMS in August, and said that he has found the challenge he was missing back home, with more material covered in a shorter amount of time. He said that he is altogether learning more. Haines, now a sophomore, had excelled academically, winning math competitions,

Getting cited by area law enforcement in November may prove to be a good thing for certain individuals. That’s because Tallapoosa County law enforcement agencies will hold a Giving Thanks Blitz enforcement period in November, looking for people doing the right thing and to say, “Thank you,” according to Tallapoosa County Sheriff Jimmy Abbett. “Law enforcement has received a lot of negative publicity lately,” said Abbett, “We just want to do some small thing to let people know that we’re human.

Hopefully, we can help make this holiday time of year a little brighter.” Abbett said the officers’ “sleighs” will be loaded with small gifts of appreciation ranging from buttons to gift certificates to area businesses. “We’ll have a little something to reward the drivers we pull over. We welcome any donations anyone might want to make toward this program. We’ve already had some folks make some donations and we’re very appreciative.” Along with the Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Department, See THANKS, Page 3

DEAR ABBY: I just turned 20 and I desperately want a baby. I know it’s not possible right now because I am still in school and will be for several years. I also want to be married before having children, and my boyfriend agrees. We take precautions and don’t plan on having kids for a long time. None of my friends, relatives or close acquaintances have young children that I can spend time baby-sitting. I was wondering if you knew of any volunteer opportunities that will allow me to satisfy my “mothering” instinct until I can actually be a mother. -FUTURE MOMMY IN MICHIGAN DEAR FUTURE MOMMY: One that might interest you is becoming a “cuddler.” Cuddlers are volunteers who visit hospital neonatal units. They work with infants whose parents can’t be there to touch them, and whose nurses have other important duties to perform. Of course, this would necessitate your willingness to undergo a background check and take a short training course.

DEAR ABBY Advice

Contact the hospitals in your area to see if they have this program available. I’m sure if there is one, you would find it emotionally satisfying. DEAR ABBY: My 13-yearold sister has epilepsy and it’s driving me mad! She has three seizures a month, and I’m usually the one who detects them beforehand. Ever since she was diagnosed, my family has been giving her everything she wants. She gets D’s and F’s on her report card and they don’t say a word. If I get a mere B, I get yelled at and punished. I’m 17 and I realize I may seem petty, but I know my parents are spoiling her to the point

DEAR ABBY: I have been friends with “Irene” for a long time. We invite her and her husband to our home for dinner parties, etc. Recently, with every invitation,

she has been asking to bring along her dog, “Pookie.” She lives nearby and could easily leave it at home. We would prefer the dog not visit for a number of reasons: We have a cat; Pookie is nervous around people and has bitten; and he isn’t well housebroken. He pees on everything. How do I politely refuse her request? We enjoy Irene and her husband, but Pookie, not so much. -- NO POOCH, PLEASE, IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR NO POOCH: Here’s how. When Irene asks again about bringing her dog, simply say, “We’d prefer you didn’t.” And if she has the nerve to ask why, tell her the reasons you gave me -- all of which are valid. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby. com or P.O.

where it’ll come back to haunt them. The other day my sister wanted a new smartphone. When Mom said no, my sister purposely triggered a seizure. My parents won’t admit they’re wrong, and we can’t afford counseling with all my sister’s bills. Please help me. -- MAD IN MIAMI DEAR MAD: You have my sympathy. I don’t think you are being petty. Being the sibling of a sick child can be extremely difficult, and your situation is no exception. Parents often devote so much attention to the child who is unwell that the healthy one is starved for attention and positive reinforcement. The result is resentment that can last a lifetime. Because what’s happening is causing you stress, talk about it with a counselor at school. There may be counseling available for you at no cost to your parents.

People from all over the country and as far away as Argentina, New Zealand and England have registered. Among the other musclecars on hand was the 1969 Mercury Cyclone that was driven by Tiny Lund on the Winston Cup circuit.

those without local access, while also providing an opportunity to the economically disadvantaged through free tuition, room and board, funded both publicly and privately by its ASMS Foundation. Darrin Sanders, Jon Ross’ father, said that he wishes he had that opportunity in high school, and that more students from the area should apply to the school. He said that the entire emphasis of the school is a learning culture not a competition. “It’s such an amazing opportunity,” Darrin Sanders said. Both Haines and Ross are leaning toward pursuing careers in the medical field. Haines said he is also considering engineering, but he likes to learn about living things, and regardless of his inclination, prefers science to math. Ross is in the midst of college recruitment and

is considering pre-med at any number of schools including the Air Force Academy, Auburn and Samford among others. But he said that this is a bittersweet time. He is happy to go but sad to leave the school’s community of students. “We’re like a family,” Ross said, He said there would only be one thing he would change from his experience at ASMS. “If I could do it again I would come as a sophomore not [a] junior,” Sanders said. The school boasts a 100 percent graduation rate, with small class sizes averaging around 16 students or less. According to information from the school’s website, a student from every Alabama county has attended ASMS at some point, and any ninth- or 10th-grader from the state can apply by Feb. 7.

Dodge now owned by Wellborn will be there along with a tribute to Richard Petty’s No. 43 1964 Belvedere and the King’s 1970 No. 43 Superbird. Cotton Owens No. 6 Charger Polara will also be on the track. On a Talladega weekend, Wellborn’s K&K Insurance 1969 Hemi Dodge that Bobby Isaac drove to the Winston Cup title in 1970 has drawn its share of attention. “That’s the one that they all talk about,” Wellborn said. “That’s the one that kind of put the engine on the map and started all this

craze. So it has definitely been the one that a lot of people are eager to see. “It’s been a crazy time preparing, but it’s exciting and good for the museum and Alexander C i t y. ” Wellborn isn’t kidding. Between the race and this event, hotels in the area are sold out for the entire weekend. “That’s what we felt like the museum could do when we decided to open it,” Wellborn said. “We wanted to help bring people to the area and that is something positive for the community.”

the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency and the police departments of Alexander City, Camp Hill, Dadeville, Jacksons Gap, New Site and Tallassee are also participating in the effort. ”All of these participating agencies want our communities to know that we care and to foster a positive relationship that will build partnerships of trust, confidence, and positive associations,” said Abbett. “We want our communities to know that we ‘Protect and Serve’ all people and that we too are part of our community. We are one and the same.”

Abbett expressed thanks to area churches for their support of the Giving Thanks Blitz. “Without their support this campaign would not have been possible,” Abbett said. “We appreciate the demonstration of their faith and we too want our faith seen of our communities. “So we ask that everyone remember not to text and drive, not to drink and drive and just obey the rules of the road. Because we will be watching, waiting to catch you doing the right thing and might just pull you over and gift you.”

The Tohopeka Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) hosted a genealogical workshop Thursday, Oct. 15 in the Adelia Russell Library. The instructional program was presented by Laura Howell, Kathy Brown, Peggy Walls, and Linda Meadows. Some of the topics covered included the application process and importance of proper documentation, the emerging use of DNA in genealogy, the resources of the Alabama Department of Archives and History, and the resources of the National DAR databases. Participants then had some hands-on computer time and assistance from the members as they worked to search out their patriot ancestors. Sixteen members and prospective members attended the workshop. The DAR, founded in 1890 and headquartered in Washington, D.C., is a non-profit, non-political volunteer women’s service organization dedicated to promoting patriotism, preserving American history, and securing America’s future through better education for children. Any woman 18 years or older, regardless of race, religion or ethnic background, who can prove lineal descent from a patriot of the American Revolution is eligible to join.

The

Our

Opinion

A look back at the week’s highs and lows THUMBS UP: While the results of Friday night’s games were unknown as of the writing of this editorial, we have to congratulate Coosa Central Coach Barry Simmons. Simmons is the first-year coach of the Cougars and if his team was fortunate enough to beat B.B. Comer Friday, the Cougars would have locked up a playoff spot. After years of being a perennial homecoming favorite for opponents, the attitude has changed in Hanover. The Cougars have won a few games and are playing with a lot of heart and determination. That new attitude is refreshing to see and Simmons deserves a lot of the credit. THUMBS DOWN: While he is innocent until proven guilty, we have to give a big THUMBS DOWN to Johnny Lee Tielking, 35, of Opelika who was arrested late Wednesday afternoon after a Chevy S10 pickup that had belonged to a Good Samaritan that had given Tiekling a ride was found burning in Auburn, not far from Jordan-Hare Stadium. Tiekling was spotted by the victim walking and he stopped to give him a lift. When the victim went into the Lake Hill Chevron to pay for gas, Tielking took off in the man’s truck. That is low rent. If he is found guilty, judges should throw the book at him. THUMBS UP: Mark Spencer and USAmeribank deserve credit for the generous offer of the Operations Center building on the USAmeriBank campus to the chamber for use as its headquarters and the site of a new business incubator operation. Spencer’s effort could greatly help the chamber, which has outgrown its offices on Tallapoosa Street, and pave the way for entrepreneurs to create new businesses in Alexander City. In return, USAmeriBank gets a partner and a neighbor it can be proud of, one that is working to develop the business community in Alexander City. It’s a win-win situation for both the chamber and the bank, one we hope will come to fruition.

Ann Rye has been a buckeye for the city

onday evening I was in Ann Rye’s office, talking with Ann and Chamber Chairman Nancy Ammons about Ann’s decision to leave her post as president of the Chamber and move to Ohio. Just before I left, I reached into my pocket and pulled out a buckeye that I picked up in North Carolina, within sight of the Appalachian Trail. A buckeye in your pocket is supposed to bring good luck. So I offered it to Ann, figuring she had a tough day coming Tuesday when she was going to tell the board, and she needed it more than me. Besides, I have jar full of buckeyes and they need to be shared. Tuesday morning I was a bit rushed. I dressed up for the chamber meeting in a blue blazer and nice shoes and headed out the door at 7 a.m. to shoot a photo of my friend David Hare in his striper boat. In my haste I forgot my phone and my buckeye … remembering both 10 minutes down the road. And I thought to myself, “I’ll shoot the photo and run back by the house. What could go wrong with a quick photo?” When I arrived at Bay Pine Marina, David was already in his boat, out in the lake. The cold air and warm lake made mist rise over the water. Wisps swirled slowly around his boat. David was in the shadows, in fact the sun was so low that the entire slough in front of the marina was shadowed. So I gathered up my camera gear and walked down through an empty lot and out on a concrete pier on the sunny side of the point. When I got there, I thought, “Dang, this pier

KENNETH BOONE Publisher

smells bad.” And when I bent over to put my camera gear down, I saw why. There was hot, steaming, stinky, yellow dog poop on both shoes. On my right shoe, the fresh yellow mess squished up over the sole on both sides. Wisps of steam rising from the warm poop looked appropriately like a Pepe Le Pew cartoon. I tried to wipe it off in the grass and turned that crease between the sole and the top of my shoe about half way around yellow, then gave up and went back to shooting photos on the pier … and breathing shallowly. And while I was standing there with poop on my shoes, questioning my luck, I thought again about the buckeye I gave Ann. Buckeyes don’t have any more power over destiny than other nuts. What makes them lucky is the attitude of the person carrying them. If I believe I’ll have a good day because there’s a buckeye in my pocket, I look for the best and take the poop in stride. We all know poop happens. It happened to Alexander City when Ann Rye’s husband, Bill, got a new job in Ohio. In my 25 years in Alexander City, I can’t recall a single person who has had a more positive impact on our community in a shorter time than Ann has. In three years, Ann has founded the Sun Festival. She spearheaded the campaign to raise more than $1 million to fund expansion at the chamber of commerce

and bring new businesses here while supporting our existing employers. In her final days as chamber president, I hope she will oversee moving the chamber office into the operations center at USAmeriBank and the creation of a business incubator which has the potential to create dozens of new employers in our town. And there are big businesses that will very likely move here in the coming year because of Ann’s work. What I’ll miss most about Ann is her attitude. She’s a big thinker with a positive, enthusiastic, cando outlook. She believes good things will happen here and she goes about making those good things come true for our community. It’s like she’s had a buckeye in her pocket ever since she became president of the Chamber of Commerce. In a larger sense, it’s like Ann herself has been a buckeye for the Alexander City community. She helped change our city’s attitude, helped us believe that good things would happen here and then helped that belief come true. With Ann “Buckeye” Rye “in our pocket” Alexander City had more success. And now, ironically, she’s moving to the buckeye state. I will miss her. We need to celebrate and continue Ann’s success here … and avoid missteps as we move forward. It’s a matter of the right attitude and hard work, and that’s something we are all capable of doing. But just in case, I’ve got whole jar of buckeyes on my desk. Give me a holler if you need one. Boone is publisher of The Outlook.

Letters to the Editor Sherry Ellison Simpson

Bob Howard

Billy Ray Wall

Thank you Rep. Sewell for calling for investigation in Alabama Dear Editor, I want to thank Representative Terri Sewell for writing the U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch requesting an investigation not only into the Voter ID laws and closing of driver license offices but into the raiding and closing of VictoryLand Casino and the governor violating the state constitution of signing the budget into law. Her department presently needs her in Alabama badly. We the people have never seen this kind of law work in the 21st century. It worked 60 years ago in Jim Crow days. We are not back there. We want the laws on the book to work for everyone, not a few but for all. Stop these barriers so people can vote and exercise their rights as a person. When children look at where we came from with voting 50 years ago and where we are today still fighting for the same voting rights, what does

that tell the children? Are they going to fight for the rights for 50 more years? We have to move forward. The laws will have to change for the good of the people with common sense. This too can be fixed. It is sad that the powerful don’t have trust in their people, that they are willing to cheat or make things harder for people and you see it’s not working for you so you try even harder. But in the long run we will prevail even if U.S. Attorney General doesn’t come, I pray that they do because Alabama is running on 200-year-old laws. We need to give the people back hope and fairness that the law can and will work for all the people. And again I want to thank Representive Terri Sewell for speaking out loud for everyone. This affects everyone. Arlean Wyckoff Alexander City

Your hostility could push someone away. Stop and think about what the true cause of this anger or frustration is. Tonight: Not to be found. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll want to focus on a long-term goal. You might have difĂ&#x201E;culty with a child or someone who might need you at the moment. Your high-voltage energy keeps emerging. Be careful with a new friend, as your temper could emerge. Tonight: Throw a party. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You might want to spend time with an older relative. You will feel good about spending the day with this person. Someone you care about might be overly assertive or determined to have his or her way, should anyone try to tromp on his or her plans. Tonight: In the limelight. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You could be overworked and determined to have your way right now. It might be a good idea for you to plan a mini-getaway, where you can relax and have a great time. A change of scenery helps you gain perspective. Speak your mind. Tonight: With friends. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You could be exhausted by everything you feel you must get done right now. A partner could be pushing you very hard to get his or her way. Is it worth the struggle to say no? What if you said yes? Be careful about spending. Check out prices carefully. Tonight: Be a friend. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Make a point of getting past a problem quickly. Others will make it clear that they want your company. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Ă&#x201E;ght the inevitable. The more you go along with the crowd, the happier you will be. Let them call the shots today. Tonight: Relish the moment. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

HHHHH One-on-one relating takes you down a path that could please you. Remember to honor the initial bond you developed with someone. You could Ă&#x201E;nd that you are more irritable than you have been in quite a long time. Take a walk if need be. Tonight: Keep a secret. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You could be in a situation that you would prefer not to be involved with. You have a great sense of direction when you are in such situations. Just follow your instincts. Not everything will turn out as you might like, but do you really care? Tonight: Wild thing. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You have a way about you that poses a threat to an older person or relative. A supervisor also could be reactive and cause a problem. Be indulgent, and remain sure of yourself. You will see how fast the problem works itself out. Tonight: Stay close to home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH You have all these ideas of what you think you should or might want to do. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sell yourself short, but be sure to recognize your limits. Be careful when traveling because you could be accident-prone. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re tired, slow down. Tonight: Choose a fun spot to meet a friend. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You could be more in tune with a situation that surrounds your Ă&#x201E;nances than you realize. You might feel drained by an ongoing situation that you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to get under control. Know when you have had enough, and walk away if need be. Tonight: Know the costs of a decision. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You will achieve what you want to achieve. Though you might have thought you wanted to visit a certain individual, after you hear all of his or her complaining and draining comments, you are likely to change your mind. Join friends at a get-together. Tonight: On top of your game.

Alleged thief caught in Auburn after stealing Good Samaritanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s truck By Mitch Sneed Outlook Editor

Officials have arrested a man they believe stole a truck belonging to a man who had picked him up as he was walking along the road Wednesday. Johnny Lee Tielking, 35, of Opelika was arrested late Wednesday afternoon after a Chevy S10 pickup that had belonged to a Good Samaritan that had given Tielking a ride was found burning in Auburn, not far for Jordan-Hare Stadium. Alexander City Police Department Detective Cpt. Michael Howell said that the victim knew Tielking and when he spotted him walking, he tried to help. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was known to the victim, so he figured he could trust him and stopped to give him a ride,â&#x20AC;? Howell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the victim went into pay for the gas at Lake Hill Chevron on Highway 280, Tielking took off in the manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s truck.â&#x20AC;? Howell said the Tallapoosa County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office, as well

Council attract a major retailer to the area. Monday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vote would allow for a change in the agreement to as the developer seeks to use a site different that originally proposed for the potential development. No names were associated with the possible retailers, but MAB American was the developer for a Publix Center in Rainbow City that is scheduled to open on Nov. 4. During the regular meeting, the council will also consider: â&#x20AC;˘ An ordinance authorizing the mayor to execute an agreement with the Alexander City Rescue Squad for the lease of a building located at 233 Joseph St. â&#x20AC;˘ A resolution authorizing the mayor to execute certain right-of-way easements and privileges document for Alabama Power. â&#x20AC;˘ Approval of Requisition No. 15-23 for the Robinson Road Sewer

as the Camp Hill Police Department, helped to apprehend Tielking, but said the Auburn Police Department found the truck damaged and on fire. The fire was extinguished and Tielking was arrested a short time later. He was initially charged with reckless endangerment and attempting to elude an officer, but charges relating to the theft of the truck were expected to be added Friday. Court records show that this kind of activity is nothing new for Tielking. IN Lee County, records show more than 20 arrests for crimes ranging from DUI, burglary, theft, bad checks and attempting to elude. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are glad to have him in custody,â&#x20AC;? Howell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to thank all the agencies that helped in this case. Tallapoosa County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department, Camp Hill and the Auburn Police Department all played a role.â&#x20AC;? No bond has been set for Tielking at this time and he remains in the Tallapoosa County Jail.

Indians shock Wolverines, reach playoffs By Cory Diaz The Wetumpka Herald

Wetumpka woke up Thursday night playoff bound for a third straight season, hanging out against G.W. Carver, 17-8,

at Cramton Bowl. Dazed after starting the year 1-4, the Indians (4-5, 4-3) won their third contest in four outings, eliminating the Wolverines in the winner-take-all for the Class 6A, Region 2 final postseason

berth. “Huge win,” Wetumpka head football coach Tim Perry said. “We kept talking about playoffs with our team. The general public probably thought that was a pipe dream. What’s so rewarding when a

group of young men, as young as we are, buy in. It’s real exciting when they start experiencing success.” Without a senior suiting up, the Tribe defense shut down the Carver offense. See PLAYOFFS • Page 3

Playoffs Continued from Page 2

Junior cornerback Jamarcus Townsend, who started after the defense’s lone senior starter Ty Humphrey went down in Week 4 with a knee injury, led the Tribe with two, second-half interceptions. His first came in the end zone with WHS leading 10-8 with 6:35 left in the third and his second icing the game with 1:23 remaining. “I’m just glad my coaches put me in the right position to make a play,” Townsend said. “Reading the quarterback at a position I like, at cornerback, and I just happened to make a play. “It was exhilarating. To know I played a part in going to the playoffs for this year, it was just an exciting moment. It felt amazing.” Wetumpka’s young defense not only won the turnover battle, but gave up 8 points to a Wolverines team which averaged nearly 30 points coming into the ballgame. After forcing a Wolverine punt to open the contest, the Indians’ offense, guided by junior running back Kavoisey Smoke’s 39 rushing yards on the drive, marched 93 yards downfield for a touchdown. The Tribe’s other junior running back DeAndre Williams capped the possession with a 6-yard score on the ground. Senior Will Digmon added the PAT, giving WHS a 7-0 lead at the 4:10 first quarter mark. Carver answered with its only score on the night. After two pass interferences calls, the first coming on a third-and-6 at its own 35, the Wolverines capitalized as Darrian Steele took an end-around handoff in from 8 yards out. Five-star senior inside linebacker Lyndell “Mack” Wilson put his team ahead with a jump pass to wide out Xavier Lane, as Carve led, 8-7, with 18 seconds to go in the first. Giving up 69 yards on that drive, the Wetumpka defense relinquished 180 yards to the Wolverines the rest of the way. “It’s one thing to have three days to prepare for a team like Carver and be able to give your defense a lot of looks. On a short week, trying to defend an offense that’s been averaging over 30 points, our defense really played lights out,” Perry said. “For us to lose our only senior starter on defense in Week 4,

to have juniors, sophomores and a freshman on defense. We got a lot of young men playing on Friday nights that should be playing on Monday nights, to gain that experience in junior varsity games. I’m just so proud of them. “The last three or four weeks, we’re not turning the ball over on offense as much. One turnover tonight, that was a jump ball deal. We’re protecting the ball, and the defense is starting to create turnovers for us. And we’ve been getting big plays from our special teams.” On the ensuing kickoff after Carver took the lead, Williams broke free for a 70-yard return, as the Tribe started its next drive at the Wolverine 10. Wetumpka couldn’t find the end zone on three straight run calls and Digmon put WHS back on top with a 20-yard field goal from the left hash, 10-8, where the score sat at halftime and after three quarters. After the teams traded punts, the Indians drove down the field and faced a thirdand-13 at the Carver 25. Holding a two-point lead with 2:13 left, instead of running the ball Perry dialed up a pass and senior quarterback Keldon Washington found Smoke down at the 1-yard line. Williams finished the job on the play, extending WHS’s lead to 17-8 with 1:57 to go. Smoke ended the night with 16 carries for 68 yards and Williams had 11 attempts for 58 yards. Perry credited the offensive line for its play during the push for the playoffs, winning three of Wetumpka’s last four games. “Our offensive line has gotten better and better. We’ve been able to run the ball,” he said. “We only returned two starters on the offensive line from last year, lost one of the starters with a season-ending injury, he cracked a rib last week against Northview. We had inexperienced offensive linemen and they’re a great group, hard working group.” Two plays after Williams’ second score, Townsend picked off his second pass, punching Wetumpka’s ticket back to the playoffs. “It’s hard to (explain). It’s amazing, it’s just exhilarating,” Townsend said of helping his team win. “My heart is still racing right now. It feels real great that we’re going to the playoffs this year.”

No. 6 Wildcats shut out Tigers in final regular-season game

Chilton County’s Keshawn Williams (5) is wrapped up by Benjamin Russell’s Tyrus Jones (33) and Tra Edwards (58) during Friday night’s 46-0 BRHS win at the Charles E. Bailey Sportplex. The win was Benjamin Russell’s second straight by way of shutout.

By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor

The No. 6 Benjamin Russell Wildcats closed the regular season strong, recording their second straight shutout in Friday’s 46-0 win over the Chilton County Tigers at the Charles E. Bailey Sportplex. After another region win, the Wildcats (9-1, 5-1 in Class 6A-Region 3) have secured the No. 2 seed in their region. Friday’s game against Chilton County (3-6, 2-4 in Class 6A-Region 3) was a slow start by 2015 Wildcat standards, as BRHS led 17-0 at halftime. But BRHS Coach Danny Horn said his team responded to the challenge coaches gave them during the break. “I think the first half we just weren’t focused and ready to play, and I’ll take

the blame for that,” Horn said. “But the second half, I challenged them at halftime that if we’re a championshipcaliber team then we’ll play like champions in the second half. I thought we played a lot better in the second half.” A muffed punt by Chilton County recovered by Benjamin Russell’s Jeffery Bruno set up a 37-yard field goal by Sean Rape that gave the Wildcats a 3-0 lead with 4:26 left in the opening quarter. Benjamin Russell quarterback Tyre Gray scrambled for a 22-yard touchdown as time expired in the first to make it a 10-0 ballgame, and the Wildcats’ final score of the half was a 2-yard run up the middle by running back NeColby Maxwell. The Wildcats needed only one play from scrimmage to open the second

half with a 41-yard touchdown run by Maxwell to push the lead to 24-0 with 11:42 left. Misfortune struck Chilton County on the very next possession. Penned at their own 2-yard line, the Tigers’ handed off to running back Keshawn Williams, who slipped and fell in the endzone for a safety that added to the BRHS lead at 26-0. After the free kick, the Wildcats used a 27-yard run by DeVee Herron to set up the 7-yard scoring run by Chase Burton that made it a 33-0 game with 10:27 left in the third. Gray added his second rushing score of the night on a 13-yard rush with 5:41 left in the third, and Benjamin Russell’s final score of the night was a 40-yard rush by Cole Grogan with 2:54 left in the third.

Nyquez Johnson and Tra Edwards each had a fumble recovery on the night for BRHS. Gray was 7-of-10 passing for 87 yards, adding 66 rushing yards on 10 carries and the two scores. Maxwell rushed for 128 yards and two scores on 15 carries, with Burton adding 42 on five carries and Grogan rushing for 55 yards on three carries. The Wildcats will be off next Friday, but will open the Class 6A State Playoffs at home on Nov. 6. Horn said the team will take some time off early next week and get back to business the rest of the week. “We’re going to take a day or two off and then practice the rest of the week,” Horn said. “We’re hopefully going to get some injuries healed and be ready to go.”

Dadeville 46, Handley 29

Dadeville captures key region win on the road at Handley By Tim Altork The Randolph Leader

ROANOKE – Dadeville quarterback Margarius Buchanan led a relentless second half comeback as Dadeville rallied for a 46-29 win over Handley Friday. The win moves Dadeville into the No. 3 playoff spot in 4A, region 3 and drops Handley from second to fourth place in the region. Buchanan finished with 197 yards and four touchdowns on 25 carries and completed 7-of-14 passes for another 110 yards. Handley led 22-8 at halftime and held a 29-14 advantage with 6:38 remaining in the third quarter, but Dadeville outscored Handley 32-0 the rest of the way. Buchanan led his team on two efficient third quarter drives as Dadeville stunned the home Handley crowd by taking a 30-29 lead into the fourth quarter. The first of those two drives was a 7-play, 71-yard march that took just 2:31 off the game clock. Buchanan’s 1-yard touchdown run at the end of that drive cut the Handley lead to 29-22. Following a three-and-out by Handley Buchanan capped a 6-play drive with a 31-yard touchdown burst that put his team on top for the first time in the game. Dadeville never surrendered that lead as the defense picked off Handley quarterback Rhett Fetner three times in the fourth quarter. Tre Marbury’s interception and 40-yard return for a touchdown with 5:28 remaining in the game was the backbreaker for Handley. That play put Dadeville ahead 46-29 and ended any realistic hopes of a Handley rally. Tyreke Stone had two interceptions for Dadeville, and he also led all receivers with five catches for 87 yards. Running back Josh Crayton rushed 10 times for 55 yards and a touchdown for Dadeville. Handley, which entered the game

Stanhope Elmore 33, Park Crossing 20

Kevin Taylor / The Wetumpka Herald

Stanhope Elmore quarterback Tanner Anderson (8) hands the ball off to Kareem Jackson during the Mustangs’ game against Russell County earlier this season.

Mustangs close season on a high note By Jim Plott for The Wetumpka Herald

The frustration in voice of Stanhope Elmore coach Jeff Foshee was evident, even after the Mustangs pulled off a 33-20 surprise victory over Park Crossing to close out the Mustangs’ season with two victories. And therein lies the reason for the frustration. The Mustangs (2-8 and 2-5) took it to the playoff-bound Thunderbirds (8-2 and 6-1) with their best performance of the season. “We played Stanhope Elmore football tonight,” Foshee said. While the Mustangs have been close to putting it together at times during the season nothing matched their Friday night their start-to-finish effort at Foshee-Henderson Stadium on Friday. B.J. Smith grinded out 191 yards on 23 carries and three touchdowns, while Kareem Jackson had 93 yards on

eight carries and quarterback Tanner Anderson, who had one touchdown run, ran the ball 19 times for 93 yards. In the air, the Mustangs were 8-of13 for 135 yards with one interception, which was their only turnover in the game. The Mustangs had three takeaways from Park Crossing, including two which led to scores. Foshee said ball control and time of possession played a big role in the game. The Mustangs scored on the opening possession of the game, but took their sweet time about doing it. Stanhope took 12 plays to go 73 yards and ate up almost six minutes off the clock. The drive also showed some determined running by Smith and Anderson which Foshee believes ignited the team. Smith scored from 3 yards out with 5:38 left in the quarter on a play in which he showed extra effort to get into the endzone.

Smith scored again on a 30-yard run early in the second quarter. The score came one play after Barry Mitchell intercepted a Park Crossing pass. “There is no doubt the opening drive gave us momentum and gave us life that we haven’t had and I think it just fired everybody up,” Foshee said. “We stop them and then get an interception and score and it’s 14-0, and then it’s ‘Maybe we are good enough to win this game.’” Stanhope missed on a 31-yard field goal before Park Crossing scored its first touchdown, but kicker Trent Lewis knocked through field goals of 21 and 23 yards for the Mustangs. Park Crossing threatened a comeback to open the second half when quarterback Jalen Patterson scored on a 15-yard run following a 50-yard kickoff return by Kameron Green. But then Stanhope resorted to slowdown again and ate up eight minutes on the clock before Anderson scored on a

10-yard run. With 2 seconds left in the third quarter. The Thunderbirds scored early in the fourth quarter, but Jackson’s 15-yard touchdown run with 7:25 left in the game all but closed the door on the victory. “We thought we could run on them because that’s what we did last year,” Smith said. “We came in the mindset to pound, pound, pound and that’s what we did. I think we found it deep down inside to play hard on our last game and for the seniors.” The Mustang defense was able to corral quarterback Micale Cunningham when needed and take away the Thunderbird’s passing threat. “It was a big win for these seniors going out and it was big win for these juniors and sophomores coming back,” Foshee said. “It leaves a pretty good taste in our mouths as far as playing the last game.”

Central-Coosa 40, B.B. Comer 19

Coosa secures playoff berth with homecoming win over B.B. Comer

Mitch Sneed / The Outlook

Central High School of Coosa County quarterback Raymond Graham (7) rushes for a touchdown during Friday’s 40-19 homecoming win over B.B. Comer. Coosa’s win wrapped up their region’s fourth and final playoﬀ berth for the Class 3A playoﬀs.

By Mitch Sneed Outlook Editor

HANOVER – For the last 15 years in Coosa-Central, the words “football” and “playoffs” were hardly ever uttered in the same breath unless they were proceeded by the phrase “eliminated from.” Not anymore. The Coosa-Central Cougars locked up the No. 4 playoff spot from Class 3A, Region 3 Friday night with a convincing 40-19 win over B.B. Comer. The accomplishment touched off a celebrating that included two Gatorade showers, fans storming the field and endzone dancing that that would have Michael Jackson envious. “I’m so proud of these kids,” first-year coach Barry Simmons said. “They hadn’t been used to winning, but they bought in to what we were trying to teach. We got a late start and it took time. “We have played hard all year, but then we stopped making the mistakes and beat-

ing ourselves. That’s been the difference. The playoffs were always the goal. At times, it looked like a long shot. But the kids believed. It’s just incredible.” The Cougars fell behind early 13-0 after Comer got a first-quarter score from Houston Ford on a 27-yard run and a 1-yard plunge from Alvin Burton on the first play of the second quarter. But then the Cougars and quarterback Raymond Graham went to work. Graham, who finished the night with 171 yards rushing on 17 carries and was 6-of-11 passing for 147 yards, put on a show with three consecutive scores before the half. The touchdowns came on runs of 1, 15 and 1 yard, but it was that last score that showed what the Cougars were made of. Coosa managed to stop Comer on fourth down with 0:21 left in the half. With 70 yards to go, most thought that the Cougars would have been content to run out the clock. Wrong.

Graham raised up on first down and hit Javon McKinney in the flats. He turned and tossed the ball on the hook and lateral to Rod Whetstone on the dead run. Whetstone raced 62 yards to the Comer 8 yard line before he was run out of bounds. “We had practiced that all week and it worked perfect,” Simmons said. “We tried it on the first play of the game and we didn’t complete the first pass, so it didn’t tip it off. So when we were in that situation, we figured – why not? It was beautiful wasn’t it?” Graham carried it to the one and then dove into the end zone for the go-ahead touchdown with just 0:02 left in the half. The two-point conversion failed, but the Cougars were up 18-13. Comer didn’t quit. They took the lead back with 7:18 left in the third period, when Ford went 63 yards untouched for another score. The conversion failed and the Tigers were up 19-18. But that was the last time Comer would

find the end zone. Cederius Askew scored on a 7-yard run and Graham added the conversion to make it a 26-19 game with 1:19 left in the third quarter. Whetstone added a 44-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter and Omar Gaddis capped the scoring with a 1-yard scoring run with 6:43 to play Whetstone has endured four years of struggles with the Cougars. After a night where he finished with 132 yards on 16 carries and a 44-yard touchdown run, he was emotional just thinking about how far the football fortunes in Hanover have come. “After four years, we are going to the playoffs,” Whetstone said. “It feels so good to be able to say that. After all the losses, struggle and the pain, this makes it all worthwhile.” Coosa (4-5 overall and 3-3 in the region) will host Horseshoe Bend next week.

Randolph County 48, Horseshoe Bend 14

No. 7 Randolph County rolls over Horseshoe Bend By David Granger Outlook Staff Writer

Four turnovers, including one on the opening kickoff, shouldn’t enter the recipe for a winless football team looking to upset an undefeated region champ. Horseshoe Bend tried it Friday night and lost its ninth game without a win on Senior Night at Battle Stadium here in New Site 48-14 to the Randolph County Tigers, ranked seventh in Class 2A, who improved to 9-0, and finished 6-0 in Region 5 play. The Generals finished 0-6 in region play. “We turned the football over four times and that’s a big difference in the game,” said Horseshoe Bend head coach Jason Franklin. “But they won the region for a reason. They’re a good football team and they took it seriously. We didn’t do anything about it. Until we decide that we want to be physical for four quarters and not let people push us around we’re going to have trouble. I just felt like we let them push us around and dictate how they were going to do things early on. But when you give them the ball deep in your own territory to start the game that really doesn’t help out. “I’m just trying to figure out where we go from here. We go to Coosa next week and hopefully we can finish this thing off and do something that we haven’t done this year and that’s get a win. But they’ve got a good football team and we’ve got to do something to address our turnover issue.” Despite the win and the sweep of his region, Randolph County head coach Pat Prestridge wasn’t altogether pleased with his team’s effort. “Tonight we didn’t play too well,” Prestridge said. “We didn’t read our keys well. We’ve just got to bounce back and buckle down because we’ll play better teams down the road (in the playoffs).” Things went downhill for Horseshoe Bend quickly. After winning the toss and electing to take the ball, the Generals’ Trace Armstrong received the kick and handed the ball off to Drew Hill who attempted a second exchange with Keith Hudson. Instead, the Hill-Hudson exchange was fumbled and a Randolph County player fell on it at the Horseshoe Bend 13. On the Tigers’ first play from scrimmage senior running back Reco Hannah dashed around right end for the score with just 13 seconds elapsed in the game. William Sledge’s PAT attempt sailed wide and the Tigers led 6-0. After the Tigers stuffed the Generals’ offense for -12 yards on the ensuing possession they headed for paydirt again. Hannah gained 17 yards on two carries on the five-play drive and quarterback John Mark Prestridge, the coach’s neph-

ew, passed to Stacy Roundtree twice for 31 more, including the 10-yard scoring strike with 7:44 left in the opening quarter. The Tigers’ attempt at a two-point conversion failed and the visitors led 12-0. Later in the first, Prestridge fumbled at the Horseshoe Bend 41 and the Generals’ Hunter White recovered. After taking a one-yard sack, Horseshoe Bend sophomore quarterback Cade Worthy ran 53 yards around left end all the way down to the Randolph County 7. Hill plowed over right tackle on the following play for the score and Caleb Bailey’s extra point cut the Tigers’ lead to 12-7. A nice return of the Bailey kickoff from Deonta Freeman set Randolph County up at its own 49. Hannah got 11 up the middle, the Generals were called for roughing Prestridge, Hannah got 19 more at right end and Prestridge hooked up with Roundtree again on a three-yard scoring pass, then threw to him once more for a successful two-point conversion and the Tigers led 20-7. On Horseshoe Bend’s next possession, Worthy committed the Generals’ second turnover when he was intercepted by Andrew Prestridge at the Horseshoe Bend 40. The next play, Hannah ran around right end for the score with 14 seconds left in the opening stanza and Sledge’s PAT gave Randolph County a 27-7 lead. The touchdown carry proved Hannah’s last of the night. The senior finished with 102 yards on just six carries, all in the first quarter. “We just don’t want to get him hurt,” said Pat Prestridge. “We got up a little bit and we need to get some experience for next year with some of our young guys. We’ve got to teach them a little bit more and get them a little bit more discipline so we’ll be good next year because we lose a lot of seniors. “But we have to try to stay healthy because down the road we gotta turn it on.” The next Randolph County running back to touch the ball was freshman Trenton Lane. One first-and-10 after a Generals punt, Lane galloped 62 yards up the gut of the Horseshoe Bend defense for the touchdown with 9:22 left in the half. Sledge kicked the lead to 34-7. Horseshoe Bend stormed right back with a nice drive from its 43 to the Randolph County 14. The running and passing of Hill (he hit Hudson on a 19-yard strike on the drive) accounted for all of the positive yardage. But the drive ended in futility when Bailey’s 27-yard field goal attempt hit the left upright and fell no good. The half ended with yet another Horseshoe Bend turnover, this one a pick-six.

yards for the score. With Sledge’s kick, the Tigers led 41-7 at the half. Each team added a touchdown in the third quarter to close out the night’s scoring. Randolph County’s came, like in the first half, on its first play from scrimmage when coach’s son Andrew Prestridge ran 81 yards through the middle, then up the left sideline for the score. The Sledge kick put the Tigers up 48-7 with 10:50 left in the quarter. Horseshoe Bend’s final touchdown came on the running of Hill, Armstrong and Worthy, who got the touchdown

from a yard out with 6:33 left in the third. Hill led the Generals’ offense with 126 yards on 18 attempts. With region play completed for both squads, Horseshoe Bend plays at 4-5 Coosa, a 40-19 winner over B.B. Comer Friday night, in its season finale. Randolph County, likely to host Collinsville in a first-round playoff game in two weeks, ends its regular season entertaining Beulah, 1-8 after a 52-22 loss to LaFayette Friday night.

Sylacauga 54, Tallassee 33

Tigers drop road game to Aggies By Tim Gayle Special to The Tallassee Tribune

SYLACAUGA – On a day when offense was the norm, a big play by Sylacauga’s defense was the difference in a 54-33 win over Tallassee at Legion Stadium Friday night. A bad exchange on a shotgun snap led to a Tevin Brooks’ fumble that Jacob Daniel returned 46 yards for a touchdown to end the trading of touchdowns between the two teams. The Aggies picked up a touchdown earlier when the snap sailed over Casey Baynes’ head and into the end zone, part of a self-destructive night for a Tallassee team that rolled up 415 offensive yards. “I think we were not prepared mentally,” Tallassee coach Mike Battles said. “This is reminiscent of some other games this year. I don’t know what the problem is. I know we’d better get it together or we won’t win another ballgame this season. I’m real disappointed.” Tallassee (5-4) closes out the regular season next week at Elmore County before traveling to Jackson for the first round of the Class 5A playoffs. The two teams traded touchdowns on initial possessions, but it soon became evident that Tallassee’s defense was not up to the task of stopping Sylacauga’s option attack. “We knew how they would line up in certain formations and it was just one of those things where everybody keys on (tailback) Alex (Thomason) and your quarterback and the other running back have got to step up and do it,” said Sylacauga

coach Matt Griffith. “We were fortunate enough we were getting good blocking on certain plays up front and got it done.” Thomason managed just 12 yards on five carries in the first half, but quarterback Jackson Walker consistently found huge holes in the Tigers’ defense, rushing for 93 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 10 carries in the first half to give Sylacauga a 21-14 lead. “Sylacauga played with a lot of emotion, a lot of excitement and we were on the opposite end of the spectrum,” said Battles, who promised changes in the lineup before next week’s game. “We thought we had a pretty good plan, but I’m going to have to wait (to watch the film) and see about the execution of our plan.” The plan almost unraveled in the third quarter after Tallassee’s opening possession stalled and the snap went over Baynes’ head, resulting in a fumble recovery by Sylacauga for a touchdown and a 27-14 lead 92 seconds into the second half. Brooks brought the Tigers back, hitting a wideopen Jeremy Noah with a 40-yard touchdown pass, then bouncing outside on Tallassee’s next possession and running 59 yards to the end zone to tie the game with 2:42 left in the third quarter. Brooks, operating primarily out of the Notre Dame Box, accounted for 402 yards in the loss. He rushed for 268 yards and four touchdowns on 37 carries, completed both pass attempts for 86 yards Carmen Rodgers / The Tribune File Photo and another touchdown and returned two kickoffs Tallassee quarterback William Peters is wrapped up by Beauregard defendfor 49 yards. ers during last week’s game.

Bulldogs’ losing streak continues, loses big to Leeds By Cory Diaz The Wetumpka Herald

There weren’t many Holtvillefriendly highlights in a 78-0 meltdown at the hands of No. 3 Leeds Green Wave Friday night. But one did rise to the surface, in the form of 5-foot-2, 122-pound Jabarious Jackson. Four days after being pulled up from Holtville’s junior varsity team, who completed its season Monday, the eighth-grader provided the Bulldogs with a bright spot, amassing 106 total yards returning kicks against Leeds. “He did a really good job of fielding kicks,” HHS head football coach Hunter Adams said. “He’s an explosive, quick little sucker. He was the starting tailback for the middle school team. He’s fearless, weight 122. He was jamming that

thing up in there, full speed, against the best team in 4A.” Taking the road trip up to play the No. 3-ranked Green Wave, Adams said he hoped his team would relish the opportunity, but Leeds proved too strong. “I’d like to see us embrace the challenge more. Even when you know you’re outgunned, that you rise to the occasion and make yourself better, giving your best against the best,” Adams said. “I felt like we didn’t do that tonight. “We had no penalties. So I guess our discipline improved.” The winless Bulldogs (0-9) will hunt for its first win on the season next Friday night hosting a Prattville Christian Academy team that is also struggling — having only won two games all year. “We need to end our season with some positive momentum, put a good

taste in our mouth going into the offseason,” he said. “We’re going to work

really hard this week and prepare for this game like it’s a playoff game.”

ECHS guts out victory over Childersburg By Kevin Taylor The Wetumpka Herald

Elmore County High showed its mettle Friday night with an unforgiving ground game and a stingy defense to top Childersburg, 37-21, at Burt-Haynie Field. The Panthers, who were eliminated from the playoffs following last week’s loss at Dadeville, rebounded with a win when the chips were down. “We’ve got good kids with good character, so it really wasn’t hard to get them to play hard tonight,” said ECHS coach Norman Dean. “We talked to our kids about why do you play this game to start with. They play the game because it’s fun and their friends play. Sure everyone would like to go 10-0, but what’s on the scoreboard is just trivial. What matters most is the friendships and the camaraderie you develop playing this sport, and that lasts a lifetime.” Kell Floyd and Travis Rawls served as the two-headed beast that Childersburg could not tame.

Floyd finished the night rushing for 218 yards on 25 carries and two touchdowns. Floyd also had three catches for 59 yards and a touchdown. Rawls closed the night with 138 yards on 20 carries and a score. But both were not done. Floyd and Rawls are like a number of players on the Panthers team which play both ways. Rawls finished the night with four solo tackles, three assists and an interception

deep inside Panther territory which stalled a Tiger drive. “I have to take my hat off to all these guys for playing, fighting and scratching and pulling one out and getting that home win,” Dean added. “A lot of these guys are banged up and just tired because they play both ways, but they keep going.” Following a Josh Stockman 29-yard field goal, Childersburg took its only lead of the game with 6:36 left in the opening

quarter. Tylan Coleman found the end zone from 4 yards out. The Panthers retook the lead on a 15-yard Neal Cook TD run followed by the Floyd and Rawls show the rest of the night. Floyd hauled in a pass from 34 yards, rushed for another from 25 yards out and tacked on a TD with no time left from 3 yards out. Rawls added his 10-yard score with 42 seconds before the half to give ECHS a 30-7 lead heading into the final quarter. The Panthers gave up two late Childersburg touchdowns, but they were of no consequence. Elmore County closes out the season next Friday when it plays host to rival Tallassee. “They are our biggest rival in our little corner of Elmore County,” Dean said. “It’s our Iron Bowl -- our little Alabama vs. Auburn game. We’re beat up and banged up, but I know our kids will do our best.”

Rebels lock up playoff spot

Reeltown’s Ra’Jarrian Wright (53) gets a sack during Friday’s win over Lanett to secure the playoﬀ berth.

REELTOWN – The end result might have been complicated, but Reeltown’s mission was simple heading into Friday night. A loss to area foe Lanett would eliminate the Rebels from postseason contention. A victory would set up a three-way tie for the final two playoff spots in Class 2A-Region 5. Reeltown kept its playoff hopes intact, holding onto a 28-18 home win over Lanett and forcing a complex tiebreaker scenario among the Rebels, the Panthers and LaFayette. The hosts took a 21-0 lead into halftime, but Lanett (5-5, 3-3) rallied late to make things interesting in the final quarter. But, in the end, Reeltown (5-4, 3-3) stayed alive. “In the first half, we played well on both sides of the ball,” Reeltown head coach Jackie O’Neal said. “We came out in the second half a little stagnated on the offensive side of the ball, but we made plays when we had to.” A banged-up Reeltown offense relied on the trio of quarterback Korey Edwards, wideout William Bell and running back Markez McCullough, who is normally a receiver for the Rebels. Edwards completed 11 of his 17 passes for 171 yards and two touchdowns — both to Bell — and added a short rushing touchdown and an interception on defense. McCullough, who received a majority of the touches in place of the injured Cody Martin, recorded 22 carries for 88 rushing yards. “With all the injuries we had, I thought our kids played exceptionally well,” O’Neal said. “But I’m not too excited about the three turnovers we had. We’ve got to get those corrected.” Two of those turnovers, an Edwards

interception and a McCullough fumble, didn’t hurt the Rebels in the first half. Reeltown’s defense stifled what had been a red-hot Lanett ground attack before halftime as the Panthers entered the locker room with negative rushing yards. That strong defense paved the way for Martin and Edwards to score from a yard out early. Edwards then extended the lead to 21 on a late second-quarter pass to a leaping Bell in the end zone. But Lanett wasn’t quite finished. “The only thing I asked our guys was to not quit and fight for four quarters,” Lanett head coach Clifford Story said. “And they came out in the second half and played with more pride and intensity. We just got behind the chains early and dug a deep hole against ourselves.” Midway through the third quarter, Lanett immediately took advantage of McCullough’s second fumble and scored on a 62-yard rushing touchdown from Tavaris Geiger. Quarterback Tre Story, who finished with 203 all-purpose yards, scored a 21-yard rushing touchdown in the fourth, but a failed two-point conversion kept it a two-score game. Reeltown capitalized through Zach Lyles’ 18-yard touchdown run on a drive that had two earlier touchdowns called back for penalties. Story found Anquaevious Pollard on a short touchdown pass in the final minutes, but it wasn’t enough for Lanett to pull off the comeback and nail down a playoff spot. Now the Panthers must face the difficult task of sitting at home next week as Reeltown and LaFayette finish their seasons in non-region games that will affect the all-important tiebreakers. “There’s just so many different scenarios,” Story said. “It’s a big old formula, so we’re going to have to wait and see how it all is going to play out. We’re just playing the waiting game now.”
