Prichard resigns from development role with the City of Beaufort
Battery Creek reopens to shellfish harvesting
By Tony Kukulich David Prichard, Beaufort’s director of Community and Economic Development, tendered his resignation last week. Beaufort City Manager William Prokop announced the resignation in a Feb. 16 email to city staff in which he stated that Prichard will be leaving his position at the end of the month.
By Tony Kukulich Shellfish beds in Beaufort County that were closed to harvesting due to a 500,000-gallon sewage spill in Battery Creek last month were reopened at sunrise, Monday, Feb. 21. "After a 21-day closure that took effect when a sewer line breach occurred in the area, shellfish harvesting beds in all open areas of Battery Creek and portions of the Broad River from the Broad River Bridge south to Archers Creek and east to Malecon Drive on Parris Island are once again suitable for shellfish harvesting," said Mike Pearson, manager of the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) Shellfish Sanitation Section. The Beaufort-Jasper Water & Sewer Authority (BJWSA) reported significant wastewater overflow into a ditch that drained into Battery Creek on Jan. 31. According to the agency, a customer complained about a strong odor of sewage, leading to the discovery of a split in a 16inch pipe crossing under the ditch. “We determined that due to the location of the pipeline a few feet in front of an outfall of a 54-inch storm drainpipe, that storm water washed away the soil covering the ductile iron main, thus exposing the pipeline to salt water during high tides,” BJWSA Director of Public Affairs Pamela Flasch said in a Feb. 18 press release. “Exposure to the harsh environment accelerated corrosion to the outside of the pipe, which led to the premature failure.” Flasch said the odor was first detected Jan. 28, but not reported until three days later. Within hours of the
“David Prichard, Director of Community and Economic Development, has given notice that he will be leaving our employ so that he may pursue his desire to further his education by obtaining a Ph.D. degree and explore other career opportunities,” Prokop wrote in his email. Prichard, who started with the city in November 2018, was the subject of a recent South Carolina
Ethics Commission opinion. It was prompted after it was revealed late last year that Prichard’s wife was employed by 303 Associates, a real estate development company with a number of projects pending before the city. Her position with 303 Associates was reportedly not related to the firm’s development efforts. The Department of Community and Economic Development considers
all development projects in the city. An informal opinion from the ethics commission was requested by Beaufort City Attorney William Harvey on Dec. 30 of last year. The inquiry was intended to determine if Prichard’s connection to 303 Associates constituted a conflict of interest for the city when considering

New book captures the beauty of a Lowcountry gem
By Tony Kukulich Carol Corbin, president of the Friends of Hunting Island (FOHI), made a surprising discovery when she went searching for the definitive book about Hunting Island. The book she was looking for didn’t exist. “I went to the Beaufort downtown library to look for anything on Hunting Island, and there was virtually nothing,” Corbin explained. “In the area where there should have been something on Hunting Island, there were all these beautiful books for Dataw, Fripp, Beaufort, Bluffton, for the
whole area, but nothing on Hunting Island. I thought, ‘Wow, there’s really a gap in the literature.’” Facing a gaping hole in the history of Beaufort County, Corbin did the only thing that made sense to her. She wrote the book herself. The resulting “Wild Island Nature” was released last month. The 145-page hardcover book features Corbin’s writing alongside the work of more than 30 photographers. While much of the book is dedicated to Hunting Island, nearby St. Phillips Island, which was once the private retreat of media mogul Ted Turner,
is also covered. Turner signed a conservation easement with The Nature Conservancy in 2017, and the island is now managed as part of Hunting Island State Park. The two-year long effort to produce the book was to culminate in a pre-Christmas launch. Those plans were derailed by pandemic-induced supply chain problems. Rather than hold the book for the better part of another year, Corbin and her production team settled on the January release.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Realize what we have here
My husband and I first visited Beaufort in spring 1977. In our early 30s, from upstate New York, we were delighted with the history that existed in Beaufort, both in the buildings that had been preserved and the special, calm southern ambiance. At the Visitors' Counter, the gentleman, maybe a retiree, expressed some surprise at our very enthusiastic interest in Beaufort. He directed us to the newly restored Verdier House. I will never forget the final words he spoke to us ... "I guess we don't really realize what we have here." Sadly, his words ring too true today in the plans for development along Port Republic Street of a parking garage and four-story hotel. This kind of land use destroys the feel of the historic area by commercializing it. As only one square mile, why can't Beaufort cherish it as an
irreplaceable heritage? Other communities have managed to do so like Ocean Grove and Cape May in New Jersey, Deerfield, Mass., or Madison, Ga. Beaufort is no less significant to our American heritage. Please save its special historical ambiance, architecture and beauty. Please do not sell out your birthright for money. – Mary Britton, Bluffton

correct the response was. The situation has not improved. Locally, driver conduct in Beaufort County has gone rapidly downhill: Examples: • 50/55 in 35/40 zones on Ribaut Road; • No lane change signaling, weaving in and out; • Failure to turn into the closest lane at intersections; • Tailgating and other aggressive driving; • Rolling through stop signs; • 80 MPH over the McTeer Bridge; • Worst of all – Running stop lights – Our 4-second yellow lights are timed for the legal speed limit. The Virginia yellow lights are mostly 5 seconds or higher depending on the posted limits, still a lot of rear-enders because of traffic cameras. Just because the light is green for you, don't go until you look left. Historically, much big city crime was brought under control by "Broken Windows" policing,
which focused on the totality of the law. It might be time for the Sheriff and local city police departments to institute a traffic version of "Broken Windows" policing. Maybe the County Council could get interested.

City addresses downtown flooding
By Tony Kukulich To paraphrase a real estate axiom, there are three important factors to consider when discussing flooding in the Lowcountry — elevation, elevation and elevation. That point was driven home when the City of Beaufort held a public meeting to discuss a stormwater drainage study conducted in a 200-acre section of the city including the Point and other downtown areas. The $258,000 study was authorized in August 2021 and completed in December of that year. The study area is surrounded by water and is subject to recurring flooding as a result of heavy rain, high tides and storm surge. According to the report, current conditions require immediate action. However, whatever steps are taken, it is unlikely that every potential flooding scenario will be mitigated. Drainage issues in the city have been complicated by a one-foot sea-level rise over the past 100 years. Expectations are that ocean levels will continue to rise, but predictions about the severity of that in-
One of several charts used to show priority areas of the Old Point area of downtown Beaufort’s drainage system.

About 30 city employees and concerned citizens attended the two-hour meeting. Photos by Bob Sofaly. crease vary widely, making planning difficult. “The City of Beaufort took a great step moving forward to say, ‘We are going to address these issues with the quality of life that we’re providing our citizens here in Beaufort,’” said project manager Neal Pugliese. “What makes this so much of a challenging prob-
lem is the density of the area. You see all these structures, all these residences tightly packed together.” Since 2017, efforts to improve drainage have reduced the number of problem areas in the city from nine to four. “That shows the dedication the city has got to resolving this issue,” Pugliese said. “The
city is very good at draining prioritization. Water in ditches is a good thing. Water in living rooms is not a good thing. We want to make sure we’re taking care of those areas where we’ve got special flooding, water in living rooms.” Funding to complete that has come largely from grants and the study confirmed that
solutions to flooding issues cannot be supported solely through normal tax increases, making the acquisition of grants a critical piece of the solution puzzle. In the short term, efforts are under way to resolve as many of the issues identified by the study as possible before the onset of the 2022 hurricane season. While the season officially starts in August, the city is targeting a May completion date for objectives like clear storm drains that are presently clogged with silt or other materials. Pugliese warned that the effort will likely result in some disruption for city
residents, but efforts will be made to provide as much advance notice as possible to the impacted neighborhoods. The design stage for long-term flooding solutions is expected to begin in August.

Arrests made related to Facebook Marketplace armed robbery From staff reports The Beaufort County Sheriff’s Office made arrests related an armed robbery earlier this month in Burton, according to a release. Around 2 p.m., on Friday, Feb. 4, the Sheriff’s Office received a report of an armed robbery. When deputies from the Northern Enforcement
Branch’s Patrol Team A arrived on scene, the victim reported that she used Facebook Marketplace to try to sell a phone. She advised that, at an agreed upon location on Roseida Road Ext., she met with a male subject to sell him the phone. The victim advised that, while she and the subject were talking, another subject approached,
pointed a gun at her, took the phone and ran off. The victim advised that, immediately following the robbery, she saw several subjects run away. Deputies requested that the Sheriff’s Office Bloodhound Team respond to the scene to assist in the search for the subjects. A short time later, the bloodhounds arrived and led the deputies
to a residence on Register Road, where they located a 17-year-old male subject. According to the Sheriff’s Office, in the investigation that ensued, the subject was identified as the person who met with the victim to purchase the phone. Believing two more subjects were hiding in that same residence, deputies obtained a warrant to enter and search
for them. Once the search warrant obtained, the Sheriff’s Office SWAT members made entry and located two juvenile male subjects, who were also identified as being involved in the robbery. Recovered inside the residence were the victim’s phone and the assault-style rifle used in the robbery. A check on the rifle’s serial
number revealed that it had been reported stolen. The 17-year-old male subject was charged as an adult with armed robbery and was taken to the Beaufort County Detention Center and incarcerated. The two male juveniles were detained on charges of armed robbery and taken to the Department of Juvenile Justice facility in Columbia.

Accordingly, when Mr. Prichard is required to take an action in which 303 Associates has an economic interest, he must recuse himself in writing.” With the issuance of that opinion, architects contracted by the city to write staff reports on projects from 303 Associates were directed to report to Prokop in place of Prichard. “Transparency is important to us, which is why we asked for the opinion,” Prokop said. “We will make this change to ensure that there is no conflict.” In an email to The Island News, Prokop said the ethics commission’s opinion was not the motivation behind Prichard’s decision to leave his position with the city. “No, this was not a factor and never had any basis in the work he did,” Prokop said. “David has a goal to obtain his Ph.D., and we wish him well in

Douglas Wayne Montana
Douglas Wayne Montana was many things to countless people. He was a Captain in the United States Marine Corps who served in Korea and Vietnam. He was a husband to Evelyn "Granny" for almost 40 years. He was the man that raised my mother. He was a foster parent to several teenagers and an unofficial foster parent to many more. He was a storyteller and a mathematician and the only reason that many of us got through math in school. He was an animal lover who ran a renegade shelter that never turned away a "pet" in need of care. He was called many different names throughout his life: Dad, Wayne, Monty, Captain, Cat, Pops. But to my siblings and me, he was Papa. Papa was a lovely man and will be missed tremendously. He was survived locally by his children Dick McIntyre (Susan), Randy McIntyre, Toy Cadien (Jim), grandchildren Ryan, Harmony, Courtney "Nicki" and great grandson JAC.

this endeavor.” Developer Graham Trask, who has been a vocal opponent to a number of projects spearheaded by 303 Associates, has been critical of Prichard. After the ethics commission opinion was made public, Trask ran an ad in The Island News calling for Prichard’s removal from city government. At the same time, he also advocated for Prokop’s removal. Trask takes particular issue with the city’s handling of three projects initiated by 303 Associates including an apartment building planned for 211 Charles Street, the Beaufort Inn Hotel planned for 812 Port Republic Street, and a parking structure intended for 918 Craven Street. “This is a welcome victory for transparency in city government,” Trask said in an email to The Island News referring to Prichard’s resignation. “Nevertheless, David's departure will not undo all the favorable decisions that he and his department made, while conflicted, which have led to the approval of 303 Associates' projects which appear in violation of The Beaufort City Code. Under the circumstances, the city should make null and void all the 303 Associates decisions which were handled during David's tenure. Instead, the city has decided to stand by David's decisions at great expense to its credibility.” Trask has filed a suit against the city for violating its own codes and processes. Additionally, he has filed appeals contesting the approvals related to all three projects. Those matters are all pending. Dick Stewart of 303 Associates said he expects little to change in the wake of Prich-
– Harmony Cadien ard’s departure. “As it relates to projects in the Historic District, our projects have been reviewed by the city architects, and we would expect that that would continue,” Stewart said. “So, we don’t see any changes there. We have some projects that we’re working on outside the Historic District. We’re concerned that the city may be understaffed for planning people and that may slow everybody down, which would affect us, too.” Before coming to Beaufort, Prichard was the director of Development in Maryville, Tenn., where he oversaw that city’s Planning and Code Enforcement departments. Prior to that, he worked in Shalimar, Fla., where he was involved with the planning for projects related to Eglin Air Force Base. “We will begin our search for a new director immediately and in the interim, we will be using consultants to assist us with guidance and review of projects and staff reports for technical correctness whenever necessary,” Prokop said. “Reece Bertholf, Deputy City Manager, and I will be working closely with the staff and consultants to ensure the continued high level of customer service to all applicants and citizens.”

Drive-thru Dunkin’ Donuts reconsidered by ZOBA From staff reports The fate of a proposed drive-thru Dunkin’ Donuts restaurant on Lady’s Island could be decided when the Beaufort County Zoning Board of Appeals meets Thursday. Developer Graham Trask is requesting a Special Use Permit to construct a drive-thru restaurant in the T4 Neighborhood Zoning District at 131 Sea Island Parkway. Drivethrus are allowed in the district with a Special Use Permit. The proposal, which has carried over from January, has met with a fair amount of opposition. A number of local residents have signed a petition opposing the restaurant, and the meeting, where public comments will be heard, is expected to be crowded. The meeting will be held at 5 p.m. at County Council Chambers at 100 Ribaut Road in Beaufort.
Provided by Wells Fargo During times of heightened stress, such as when there’s extreme market volatility, a person can quickly become overwhelmed and struggle to do things that might be considered simple or obvious. It can be helpful to focus on the things you can control, identify actions that you can take, and complete those action steps. Here are four action items for you to consider:
1. Review your investment plan
Before you start making changes to your investment portfolio, consider your goals. Are you saving for retirement? Do you need to build a college fund for your children? Did a recent
event create a need to adjust your plan? If your goals have changed or if you haven’t updated your plan in a while, review and, if necessary, update your investment strategy to support reaching your goals.
2. Understand your risk tolerance
Risk is a key principle in investing. Some investments are riskier than others, but every financial decision involves risk. Since risk is inescapable, the key is to understand your risk tolerance and manage how much you are taking, which should be based on your long-term financial goals. If your tolerance for risk has changed, review your strategy and make sure you are still com-
fortable with the amount of risk you’re taking.
Create a reference list of your documents and consider making a digital version for easy storage and accessibility. Also ensure that your beneficiary designations for investment accounts, life insurance, and other accounts are up-to-date to reflect any new circumstances such as marriage, birth, death, or divorce. Beneficiary designations typically supersede your will or trust, so you’ll want to confirm that they are current and accurate.
3. Stick to your plan
When the market gets volatile, investors often react emotionally and may want to pull out of the market to try to avoid loss. However, remember that moving or selling investments during a market decline will likely lock in losses; staying invested may allow you to benefit if the market comes back. Before reacting, take time to step back and try to respond using logic rather than emotion.

Public invited to Conroy Center dedication
From staff reports A ribbon-cutting and dedication of the nonprofit Pat Conroy Literary Center will be held at 5 p.m., Saturday, March 19, at 601 Bladen Street in Beaufort. The event is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served, and registration is requested at https://conroycenterribboncutting.eventbrite. com. Rev. Kenneth Hodges will give an invocation, and Mayor Stephen Murray will cut the ribbon. Visitors will then be invited to come inside to tour the Center. “We will have an extended Open House the next day, Sunday, March 20, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.,” the Center’s Executive Director Jonathan Haupt said in a release. “Docents will be on hand to show people around the Center and highlight some of our ongoing educational programs.”
A military “brat,” Conroy lived many places, but he considered Beaufort his home. In his last book, “The Death of Santini,” he wrote, “I’ve come home to the place I was always writing about. … I’ve tried to make Beaufort, South Carolina my own.” According to Haupt, that quote speaks to why the Center is in Beaufort, and not in Charleston or Atlanta, where Conroy also lived. He said the main reason for the event is to thank the many donors who support the mission of the Center and made possible the purchase and renovations of the Center’s new home on Bladen Street. The Center nurtures a diverse community of writers, readers, teachers, and students by offering educational programs and special events that celebrate the transformative power of story. It is filled with curated artifacts
Pat Conroy Literary Center from Pat Conroy’s writing and teaching life, including copies of manuscripts and correspondence, photographs, and movie memorabilia. The three-gallery museum also features Conroy’s Fripp Is-
land writing desk, his father’s flight jacket, and Conroy-inspired artwork. Besides the museum, the Center has rooms for writing workshops and critique groups, book club meetings,
visiting author programs, school field trips and workshops as well as broadcast studio space for virtual educational programs reaching attendees beyond Beaufort County.
The Conroy Center also offers numerous onsite and offsite educational events, including: • Visiting Author programs • Writers workshops • Open Mic Night readings • School visits • March Forth social justice and diversity programming in March • Annual Camp Conroy Summer Camp for young writers and artists in June • Children’s Book Fair in August • Lowcountry Book Club convention in September • The Pat Conroy Literary Festival in November. Regular hours for the Center are from noon to 4 p.m., Thursday through Sunday; trained docents provide tours. Private tours and special programming are available during off-hours, as well.

YAM supports young artists in their early stages
The YAM (Youth Artist of the Month) Program sparks a shared creative practice between The Gullah Art Gallery at The Beaufort County Black Chamber of Commerce and youth in the community. This program occurs every other month and is offered to all youth in the community between the ages of 5 and 18. This program is a valuable tool for discovering, exploring, and interpreting reality through the arts. This signature program was designed to support young artists in their early stages with finding and developing their creativity and helping to enhance their professionalism. Each participant collaborates
with gallery staff to plan and implement their own unique showcase while giving them the skills, experience, and self-confidence to meet their full potential. Each youth artist will learn techniques that deal with how to create their own biography, title their collections and artwork, present their collections, public speaking, and financial management. For more information on this program to participate or become a sponsor, contact Dominique Tuttle at 843-986-1102 or email ARTGALLERY@BCBCC.ORG.

from page A1 “In “Wild Island Nature,” Carol Corbin uses excellent photographs and descriptive writing to chronicle the beauty, history and incredible diversity of life at South Carolina’s most iconic state park,” wrote Tony Mills, director of the Lowcountry Institute, in the book’s foreword. Hunting Island’s undeveloped state is a key component to what makes it special, Corbin said. “Very few barrier islands in South Carolina or Georgia have easy access and are not developed,” she continued. “Most of the undeveloped islands you can only reach by boat. This is an opportunity to feel like you’re in Jurassic Park. You’re back to the original way it was.”
Beaufort Mayor Stephen Murray and travel show host Kathryn Mademann pose for photo as the opening night reception kicks off the Beaufort International Film Festival on Tuesday, Feb. 22, at the Tabby Center in Beaufort.
Once Corbin recognized the need for a book, she concluded that it was unlikely anyone else would take on the task except for the Friends of Hunting Island. “Then COVID-19 hit,” she said. “I had one wonderful month of absolutely nothing to do. Then I thought, ‘I can’t do that anymore. Now’s the time for the book.’” The FOHI Board of Directors authorized Corbin to tackle the book, and she found a publisher willing to take the
project on – Hilton Head Island-based Lydia Inglett Publishing. Inglett was, according to Corbin, responsible for publishing many of the books documenting other Lowcountry locales that Corbin found in the Beaufort library. “I’m just so pleased with the way the book came off,” Inglett said. “I think it gives people history, details about the flora and fauna and gives them, most importantly, all the different environments on Hunting Island. Being a real
nature lover, that’s important to me. I think we struck the right balance. We’re trying to create an experience between two covers. It’s like an ancillary experience for (island visitors). If people go there and take a book home with them, we want them to relive that experience they had on Hunting Island every time they open that book.” A call to photographers seeking submissions to illustrate the book drew more than 1,500 responses that Corbin then edited down to the photos found in the book. That effort had an unintended effect. After seeing the final selections, Corbin decided she needed to rewrite the book to match the visual narrative. Aside from Mills’ foreword and Corbin’s own writing, the book includes a description of an 1870s hunting trip to the island. The story, written

by I. Jenkins Mikell, is a firsthand account that details the mid-December journey by row boat from Edisto Island across St. Helena Sound, which the author described as grand, gloomy and, at times peculiar. “To me, that’s the best part of the book,” Corbin said. “I feel very emotional about it because even then, when it took a row boat trip to get here, people adored this island. It was a spiritual place for them.” Having released her book into the world, Corbin noted that the FOHI is beginning work on a book. It will focus on the island’s famous lighthouse. While she won’t be involved in the writing, Corbin will likely edit the new book when it’s ready. In her introduction and throughout “Wild Island Nature,” Corbin writes about the transitory nature of barrier islands.
“You never step onto the same island twice,” Corbin wrote in her introduction. “It keeps us wanting to come back to see what’s different and greet it anew.” “Wild Island Nature'' can be purchased by visiting friendsofhuntingisland.org. It is available in two versions – a hardback edition and a special limited boxed edition. All proceeds from the sale of “Wild Island Nature” go to the Friends of Hunting Island.

t is Saturday, early, and this morning it is cold. As I sit in our well-lit, well-heated dining room I have my Eight O’Clock coffee in a heavy mug reminiscent of day-old grease, onions and roadside diners of the 1950s. This morning there is no newspaper, meaning I have to rely upon National Public Radio. Those who listen to NPR on Saturday know that the People’s Pharmacy is the first program that most of us hear as we fight to regain our consciousness. Although the People’s Pharmacy sounds vaguely Soviet, we know it is relentlessly receptive to far ranging discussion dealing with heart disease, cancer, hypertension and hysterectomy. Joe and Terry Graydon always have a doctor who is eager to describe symptoms — nausea, vomiting, loss of peripheral vision — that leave you wondering wheth-
SCOTT GRABER
er or not you yourself have that particular pathology. When I was growing up there was a television series called “Medic” that starred Richard Boone. Boone, who would go on to other roles including Mike Sweeney in “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance”, played Dr. Konrad Styner. Dr. Styner would host a show that would usually center around a disease like leukemia or spinal meningitis — serious stuff where the outcome was always in question. To this very day I remember the leukemia show and also remember a show that featured a nuclear
attack complete with burns, radiation sickness and death. In 1954 (when this episode was aired), the possibility of nuclear war was periodically reinforced by drills where children, like myself, climbed under our desks awaiting the blinding flash that would precede our deaths. In those days, the U.S. Army assumed nuclear war was in its future and that battlefield burns would constitute the majority of its casualties. The Army built a burn center in San Antonio, Texas, and my father was assigned to its research unit. The Army invested millions, maybe billions, of dollars in its burn research and treated thousands of burn victims from around the country at Brooke Army Medical Center at Fort Sam Houston. I got to watch some of this work — from a distance — and sometimes my father sneaked me into
films that showed what happens when a tactical nuclear device is detonated in the vicinity of animals. Usually this involved pigs placed in M4 Sherman Tanks. After San Antonio, we were transferred to Germany where it was assumed an invasion, from the East, was inevitable. Furthermore, the invading Russians, East Germans, Poles and Czechoslovakians would be preceded by nuclear warheads aimed at Munich and Mannheim. Our soldier-fathers would not defeat these invading armies, but would slow them down so that the reinforced allies, mostly from the United States, would eventually win. Nuclear war did not, however, occur in the 50s or the 60s, and I, myself, was astounded that somehow, someway our leaders had averted the horror and sorrow of nuclear war. And all the while we were proud of the men, and the women,
who flew the B-52s, who patrolled the Fulda Gap, and those who made the fundamental, foundational decisions regarding our reaction to Russian provocations. If a B-52 (or B-47) and Dwight David Eisenhower had the ability to protect us from nuclear destruction we were not going to criticize that airborne crew, or that President and his State Department. That war, whether one called it hot or cold, meant loyalty to our leaders and those who actually carried the World War II-era weapons. But in the late 60s, the notion of inevitability began to wane. Notwithstanding huge stockpiles of nuclear weapons, neither side had used them and there was a growing belief that they never would be used. At the same time, there was the parallel notion that our President (Lyndon Johnson) and our Vietnam-era military were flawed.
Filling-up this fading fear (of war) were other problems — problems like racial prejudice, income inequality, abortion and class warfare. When these issues raised their heads, our fear, once reserved for the Soviet Union, was replaced by resentment, anger and pointing fingers at each other. This time of criticizing of our leaders, and each other, was modulated by the fact that newspapers and television networks edited out the irresponsible, libelous and erroneous criticism. One got opinion, but there were grown-ups who excised the outrageous and the destructive. Need I end this essay by saying that this editing and these editors are gone? These days we live in a free fire-zone. Scott Graber is a lawyer, novelist, veteran columnist and longtime resident of Port Royal. He can be reached at cscottgraber@gmail.com.
The terrible burden of perpetual victimhood
V
ictimhood. The condition of having been hurt, damaged, or made to suffer, especially when you want people to feel sorry for you because of this or use it as an excuse for something. As we go through life, most of us will be the victims of something or someone. It’s one of the unavoidable facts of life. When this occurs, most of us fight back and refuse to be victims. We find ways around, over or through the problem. We get on with living and work to make things better. There are, however, those among us who fall prey to perpetual victimhood. I have always felt very sorry for them because they miss

out on the great joy and personal satisfaction of overcoming adversity. This is an emotion that they will never experience. They wrap themselves in the warm and comfortable blanket of victimhood. It excuses them from most of the realities of life. When they are young and they don’t do well in school, it becomes the fault of the teachers, the other students, or the
school. When they go out into the adult world where they now lack the skills or the will to compete, they fail. They blame it on the fact that no one would give them the right chance, or they were the wrong religion, or race, or sex, or a hundred other reasons. They are easy prey to those who will seem to agree with them and tell them that it not their fault, but the fault of the system or society and if they will just follow them they will make it all right. They see it on TV, in school, in newspaper columns and on social media, and they believe it because it makes them feel good about themselves for a change. They are told that they
should be outraged at the treatment they have received at the hands of society, and that they should take to the streets to protest, riot, rob, and burn. That It’s their right to attack the system that has failed them. Victimhood is not confined to any sector of society. Rich, poor or anywhere in between are all affected. Despots have used these people to rise to power for as long as humans have lived together. We see it happening around the world, and I am sad to say in our own country, a place where many of us thought that we were well past the possibility of that happening. Capitalism and victimhood are natural enemies,
and can never co-exist; socialism and victimhood are close friends; communism and victimhood are the best of friends, and they are in fact, inseparable. The sad truth is that the promises that budding dictators make to bring about equity to the masses are all true. They do in time, fulfill that promise; they bring everyone down to the lowest standard of living except of course themselves their friends and enablers who enjoy only the best. There is some good news. It appears that more and more Americans are waking up to what has been going on around them for the past many years. They are paying attention to what is happening in their children’s schools and demanding that
it change. They are seeing that uncontrolled government spending is causing rapidly rising inflation, and foolish governmental policies are doing great harm and putting us in danger. Hopefully more people are seeing that the free ride is only a free ride to the bottom.

LIVING ON PURPOSE
O
Those who have an ear let them hear
ne of the greatest mysteries is the perplexing relationship between God and humans. I cannot think of a more glorious yet frustrating subject. Especially when it comes to people trying to find answers when all they have is questions. I’ve counseled and given psychological first aid to those who have gone through a traumatic crisis and I’ve listened to people in hospital waiting rooms repeat that age-old question, “Why is this happening?” They cry and beg, but many times they cannot hear a sound from Heaven, and usually neither can anyone else. I’m thankful for the holy scriptures that are wonderful promises, but nothing would be better than to sit down at the kitchen table with Jesus
BILLY HOLLAND
or at least one of His angels and have some coffee while we discuss all the things I would like to know. I’m sure that if we were given this glorious invitation that trusting God would be the foundation of the conversation. The Bible reveals that God has all wisdom and authority, and most Christians will agree that He wants to interact and intervene in our affairs, but this is where our ideas and hopes of communicating with Him take an unexpected turn.
It’s common to hear the old saying, “my door is always open” from those who want to make themselves available to us, and it could not be any more true than with God Himself. His presence is always with us and He is always listening. The question would be if we are listening? The Bible says that he who has ears to hear, let him hear what the Spirit has to say.” This would imply those who have a desire to hear. Have you noticed that straining your spiritual ears to hear God’s voice is very difficult? It seems that everything in the world will try to distract us which allows us to see a glimpse of spiritual warfare. For those who are seeking God’s direction, I encourage you to add fasting to help bring power and clarity to meditation and prayer.
It is common to hear people say, “the Lord told me this and that,” and I believe this is wonderful. We know that God lives within those who are born-again, and Him communicating with us is a central part of our personal relationship with Him. Allow me to include the closer we are to Him the better chance we will have to hear His still small voice. People have different perceptions of God, as some imagine a person sitting on a throne dressed in white who looks like Gandalf in the Lord of The Rings series. There are flashes of lightning all around Him and His voice sounds like layers of thunder. Others picture a younger man like the Jesus in the Chosen series who is walking on a dusty road
and stops to talk to a group of children. He is kind and soft-spoken, and when you look into His eyes, you become drawn into the depths of His love. Whatever comes to mind when we talk to Him is fine, but the greatest miracle is that we have been given an opportunity to be as close to Him as we want. Even though we are not able to see Him with our natural eyes, we are joined together with Him in our spirits and minds. How can we know hear His instructions if we are not listening? We enjoy engaging with others when we talk to them, but with God, we communicate through faith. Even though we can sense and appreciate His presence, it is still a challenge. I wonder if not being able to see Him is why many times we

lose our focus and attention when we pray? When we consider where we are today in our spiritual journey, we are grateful our Lord knew us from the beginning and had a detailed plan for our destiny. Do we realize how much God loves us? We can never praise Him enough for all that He has done for us. It is always a blessing to remember that we did not find God but He found us. Christ went to the cross because He knew we were lost, and we worship Him for becoming our Savior and giving us eternal security. In His person, we have found our purpose, and in falling in love with Him we have found the true meaning of life.

What exercises should people with hip arthritis avoid?
The most common form of hip arthritis is osteoarthritis (OA). OA is a common joint disease that affects more than 32.5 million adults in the United States. Doctors may also refer to osteoarthritis as wearand-tear arthritis. The condition gradually worsens as the cartilage cushioning the bones in the affected joints breaks down. Hip arthritis can interfere with a person’s ability to perform daily activities. Exercise commonly plays a key role in the management of hip arthritis. However, a person needs proper guidance and education to avoid doing exercises that can worsen the condition. Some exercises put greater strain on the joints, which can cause further pain. Exercises may provide various benefits, such as improving flexibility, building strength, and increasing the ability to move joints through their full range of motion. People with hip arthritis can use exercise as a way to improve their mobility and reduce pain and stiffness. However, certain types of exercises may worsen the pain.
Types of exercises to avoid
Some exercises increase joint contact forces, putting the joints under more stress and potentially resulting in hip pain in a person with OA. During exercise, the body produces force, which comes from weight-bearing and the foot contacting the ground. The forces travel upward from the foot, and the hip joint must absorb them to allow the body to regain stability and balance. Exercises that people with arthritis in the hip may wish to avoid include: Exercises with sudden changes in movement and direction: Sports and exercises that involve sudden stops and movements, such as tennis and baseball, put heavy stress on the joints. A 2016 study associated certain elite-level sporting activities,
durance, and muscle mass to create resistance against which their muscles can work. Strengthening the hip muscles can reduce the load that the joint carries and minimize the forces it absorbs. Stronger muscles also help stabilize the joint. Stretching the muscles that people strengthen is important for restoring range of motion and preventing injury. Range of motion exercises: Like stretching, these exercises help improve a person’s flexibility and increase the range of motion of the hip joint. In this way, they can help improve a person’s mobility and physical functioning.

Prolonged standing exercises: Exercises that involve standing for extended periods put a strain on the joints, which can worsen pain. A person can try doing exercises while lying or sitting down, or they can perform them in a swimming pool to reduce the pressure on the hips. Alternatively, they can take care only to perform standing exercises for short durations. Weightlifting exercises: Strength training, which includes heavy weightlifting, can be helpful for people with hip arthritis. However, if a person does not perform the exercises correctly, weightlifting may worsen pain or cause further joint injury. Lifting heavy weights with the legs puts a severe strain on the hips, so it is advisable for a person to start by using their body weight. A doctor or physical therapist may recommend progressing to light weights based on the person’s needs and capabilities.
including handball, hockey, and soccer, with a higher risk of developing hip OA. Exercises on uneven terrain: A 2019 study noted that uneven terrain causes the ground reaction force to change with every stride. The constant need to adjust and stabilize the posture puts additional strain on the hip. The more uneven the surface, the more the hips need to work. This supports the findings of a 2017 study, which showed that uneven terrain causes a variety of gait modifications, greater muscle coactivation, and a lower center of mass. A person new to exercise should initially limit their workout area to smooth, even surfaces and avoid concrete and sand. Once they can tolerate these surfaces, they can gradually introduce surface changes. High impact exercises: As the name implies, high impact exercises—which include activities that involve running and jumping—significantly impact the joints. When a person is running, each strike of the heel on the ground puts a force equivalent to up to three times a person’s body weight on their feet. These forces travel up from the feet to the knees, hip, and trunk, putting a lot of stress on soft tissues such as joints, tendons, and liga-

ercises. They can do this by using heating pads or taking a hot shower. Strength training: A 2021 study found that people with moderate-to-severe hip osteoarthritis present with muscle weakness, limited endurance, and impaired functional performance. These effects of the disease can make it more challenging for a person to perform their daily activities. Strength or resistance training is any exercise that uses a person’s weight or equipment, such as dumbbells, to build muscle strength, en-
Summary
Hip arthritis is a permanent and progressive condition that damages the hip joint over time. However, treatments are available that can help slow its progression, reduce pain, and improve or maintain a person’s physical function.

Even if it doesn't lead to weight loss, a Mediterranean diet could help prevent type 2 diabetes, according to a study previously published in the Annals of Internal Medicine. Some 3500 adults without diabetes but at high cardiovascular risk were randomized to a Mediterranean diet supplemented by either extra-virgin olive oil or nuts or to a low-fat diet (control). Calorie restriction or increased physical activity was not advised. After 4 years, diabetes had developed in 6.9% of
exercises, such as walking, elliptical training, and cycling, may help improve joint mobility and movement in people with hip arthritis. People should avoid high impact aerobic exercises, which include running and jumping rope. Stretching exercises: Regular stretching helps maintain a joint’s full range of motion and prevents the joints from becoming stiff due to lack of use or activity. It can also reduce the risk of injury. A person should relax stiff joints before doing stretching ex-

What do you know about pancreatitis?
Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas, a long, flat gland that lies horizontally behind your stomach. The pancreas produces enzymes for digestion and hormones that regulate the way your body processes sugar. About 275,000 hospital stays for acute pancreatitis occur in the U.S. each year, according to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Disease. Chronic pancreatitis is less common, with about 86,000 hospital stays per year. And although pancreatitis is rare in children, the number of children with acute pancreatitis has grown. Pancreatitis occurs when digestive enzymes become activated while still in the pancreas, irritating the cells of your pancreas and causing inflammation. Acute pancreatitis appears suddenly and lasts for days. Repeated bouts of acute pancreatitis over many years can damage the pancreas and lead to chronic pancreatitis.
Signs and symptoms of pancreatitis may vary, depending on which type you experience. Acute pancreatitis signs and symptoms include: • Upper abdominal pain. • Abdominal pain that radiates to your back. • Tenderness when touching the abdomen. • Fever. • Rapid pulse. • Nausea. • Vomiting. Chronic pancreatitis signs and symptoms include: • Upper abdominal pain. • Abdominal pain that feels worse after eating. • Losing weight without trying. • Oily, smelly stools called "steatorrhea." Factors that increase your risk of pancreatitis include excessive alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking, obesity, diabetes and a family history of pancreatitis. Mild cases of pancreatitis can improve with treatment, but severe cases can cause
Photo credit: Mayo Clinic life-threatening complications. Initial treatment can include monitoring eating as tolerated, and tube feeding if necessary; pain medications; and IV fluids. Once your pancreatitis is under control, your health care team will evaluate and treat the underlying cause of your pancreatitis. Chronic pancreatitis may require additional treatments, including pain management, enzymes to improve digestion, and changes to your diet.

Adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
ADHD is a lifelong neurodevelopmental disorder in which the brain grows differently. This leads to deficient action from the chemicals involved in pleasure and reward. The name ADHD is a little unhelpful as those with the disorder do not have a deficit of attention, more a lack of ability to control what they pay attention to. Even the hyperactivity part isn’t always obvious, at least externally. ADHD is commonly associated with issues with “executive function.” These are the higher thinking skills, such as planning, task management, cognitive inhibition, and working memory. Although often seen as a “new” disorder predominantly seen in children, ADHD was first described in medical texts dating back to the 18th century. And, although it is usually diagnosed during childhood, most people continue to live with ADHD for their entire adult lives.
ADHD in adults
Recently, a growing number of people are first reporting ADHD symptoms as adults, partly due to high-profile cases or the impact of social media. In fact, somewhere around 2.8% of adults are thought to live with ADHD, with the vast majority of these being undiagnosed. Despite this growing awareness,
Photo credit: Adobe Stock photo issues with healthcare resources, poor understanding among healthcare professionals, and stigma around the disorder mean many adults struggle to get a diagnosis. The neurological basis for the disorder means ADHD brains often search for ways to stimulate the chemicals that have deficient action, which is why those with the disorder can experience some or all of the core traits: inattentiveness, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These core traits can manifest themselves in several ways, including: • Being unable to follow through on longer tasks or not being able to start them. • Being easily distracted by other tasks or thoughts. • Seeking out activities, sometimes including
risky behaviors, that provide an immediate reward. • Restlessness, either externally or internally. • Interrupting other people without wanting to. The symptoms of ADHD are largely similar for both adults and children, although ADHD can present differently as we age. For example, inattention is the most persistent symptom in adults, and hyperactivity is less apparent. ADHD can be extremely debilitating if untreated. It has been associated with a higher likelihood of reduced quality of life, increased risk of substance use issues, unemployment or underemployment, accidental injuries, suicide, and premature death, among other issues. In addition, untreated ADHD is thought to have significant costs to society, with estimates of around
US$24,400—each year per untreated ADHD adult. This is due to issues such as medical care and unemployment costs. Beyond the core traits of ADHD, an array of commonly associated co-existing conditions are reported in ADHD adults. These co-existing conditions include a greater than three-fold risk of mood disorders compared with non-ADHD adults, a twofold increased risk of having an anxiety disorder, and increased risks for eating disorders and obesity. Additionally, around 70% of adults with ADHD also experience emotional dysregulation, making it difficult to control emotional responses. It is believed that almost all adults with ADHD have rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD), a condition where real
or even perceived rejection or criticism can cause extreme emotional sensitivity or pain. While there is now a growing recognition of ADHD in adults, many people still live with it undiagnosed for any number of reasons: lack of awareness that ADHD in adults is a real thing, mishandling by healthcare professionals, or diagnosis hesitancy—the fear of being labeled with something that carries a stigma in society. Understanding the condition in adults, taking it more seriously as a disorder, raising awareness of it both in society in general and among healthcare professionals, and investing in services to improve diagnosis times are essential to deal with this growing issue. Improving access to diagnosis and reducing the stigma associated with ADHD would open the door to treatment, which can have a marked impact on living with the disorder—such as improving self-esteem, productivity, and quality of life. There is self-help for ADHD. Here are some suggestions: Create a routine: Creating daily and weekly routines can help build good habits and may ease some ADHD symptoms. For example, according to Children and Adults with ADHD (CHADD), structure and routine can help reduce stress and uncertainty. Create a calm environ-
ment: A person’s physical space can profoundly impact their mental state. For instance, a person may feel more focused when they do their work in a quiet, tidy room. Similarly, children may learn better without external distractions, such as a television playing in the background. Exercise: Getting regular exercise may help alleviate some of the symptoms of ADHD. In one 2017 study, for example, researchers found that children with ADHD showed improved impulse control and attention after a single 20-minute aerobic exercise session. According to the authors of one 2019 review article, current research suggests that regular physical activity leads to structural changes in the brain that may reduce ADHD symptoms in children. Coping with ADHD: People should contact their healthcare provider if they experience any new or worsening symptoms of ADHD that interfere with their ability to function on a daily basis. It is essential that people with ADHD continue their current treatment, which may consist of taking medication, attending behavioral therapy, or a combination of the two.
sour, tomato, pesto or honey sauces instead of ranch, tarter or other cream sauces Broil or grill rather than fry Steam rather than boil vegetables Find low-fat/no-fat options that you can substitute without too much of a sacrifice (fat-free sour cream, cool-whip, croutons, refried beans, and low-fat cream soup for recipes) Allow yourself an indulgence every now and then. A candy bar or
handful of potato chips won't derail your hearthealthy diet. But don't let it turn into an excuse for giving up on your healthy-eating plan. If overindulgence is the exception rather than the rule, you'll balance things out over the long term. What's important is that you eat healthy foods most of the time.

FROM FISHING TO FOOTBALL, THE HARD WORK OF ALL ATHLETES DESERVES RECOGNITION

Beaufort Academy takes down Pee Dee in OT to reach semis
LowcoSports.com Tahleea Heyward carried the load on offense with 22 points, including five in overtime, and senior Mary Hanna Hiers knocked down the game-winner in the extra period to send Beaufort Academy girls basketball into the SCISA 2A semifinals with a 51-48 overtime win over Pee Dee Academy on Monday at the Sumter Civic Center.
The Eagles got off to a great start behind a pair of early buckets apiece from Heyward and Hiers and led by six after the first quarter, but Pee Dee’s Ashley Martin heated up in the second scored 10 of the team’s 12 points in the period to draw even at 18 at the break. Heyward poured in eight of her game-high 22 in the third — all from the field — and BA inched
ahead by a bucket going to the fourth, setting up a back-and-forth battle to the final whistle. Then the junior went to work at the stripe, repeatedly earning trips to the foul line to help BA keep pace and get the Eagles to overtime. It was more of the same in the extra session, as Heyward went 5-for-5 from the line and Hiers knocked down the go-ahead jump-
er from the right baseline to push BA into the final four. Mike’Ala Washington added 11 points and Hiers scored 10 to complement Heyward’s big night. “So proud of this team,” BA coach Andrew Ienuso said. “We never stopped fighting, we never gave up. We showed grit and re-

hen I first arrived in the Lowcountry in the summer of 2005 to cover sports for The Island Packet, I was struck by how different the high school sports landscape looked here than in my native Kansas, where private schools are located primarily in major population centers and compete in the same league as the state’s public schools, usually in the upper half of the Sunflower State’s six classifications. The concept of a separate league of private schools made up of both larger prep schools in metro areas such as Pinewood Prep, Porter-Gaud, Heathwood Hall, and Hammond School, as well as tiny rural schools in every town, with a wide disparity of talent pools to draw from, was perplexing to me. It didn’t take long for folks to help me connect the dots to integration (https://www.southerneducation.org/publications/historyofprivateschools/) as I began to develop a deeper realization that I most definitely was not in Kansas anymore. There is more nuance to this issue than belongs in a local sports column, even one focused on fostering a deeper understanding of complex issues, so I encourage you to follow the link above and explore the topic further, but the gist of it is this — when Southern schools were forced to integrate, private schools popped up in every county, if not every town, and essentially extended segregation in schools for several decades in many areas. Progress stops for almost no one, of course, and we have seen a welcomed (by most) cultural shift in South Carolina’s private schools, beginning with those larger schools in metro areas and slowly filtering out to the smaller and more rural schools. Even at schools like Thomas Heyward Academy — which is nicknamed the Rebels and until the mid2000s had a mascot who dressed as a Confederate soldier on the sidelines at football games and fired a musket at the opening kickoff — diversity among the student body and on sports rosters increases annually, which can only help to create a more welcoming environment as students interact with more of their peers who come from different backgrounds and have different lived experiences. There are still pockets of the state, though, where SCISA sporting events are disturbingly monochromatic, and that isn’t likely to change soon. Again, this is a generalization and focused more on the overall picture, not individual schools. There is much deeper discussion to be had around this issue, but not in this space. I point it out primarily to illustrate that SCISA serves a more diverse group of schools and students than it ever has in the past, and in my estimation, this conundrum of keeping member schools with diverging goals and interests satisfied has led to a regular lack of consistency and occasional discord regarding policies and procedures. SCISA has long been viewed as the Wild West relative to the S.C. High School League, which has a public board of directors and

Knights outlast Beaufort in frenzied playoff clash
LowcoSports.com Beaufort High boys basketball rallied from a 20-point deficit to take the lead in the fourth quarter, but the Eagles ran into foul trouble and a talented West Florence team closed it out at the foul line for a frenetic 92-78 win to end Beaufort’s season in the second round of the Class 4A playoffs. James Dennison scored 21 points, Jake Alvarez added 19, and Zyrin Odom contributed 17 in their final game at Beaufort, and Michael Dennison added 14 for the Eagles — but James Dennison was the only one of the quartet still on the floor at the end.
Plagued by foul trouble all night, Jeremy Huff’s team put together a scrappy effort to dig out of a huge hole and briefly took the lead at 67-66 early in the fourth quarter, but West Florence scored five quick points to regain control. The Eagles got back within two, but a 7-0 run from the Knights made it an uphill climb, and then Beaufort’s foul problems came home to roost. The Knights were on fire in the first half, going up by nine after one quarter and using a 20-9 spurt to stretch it to a 20-point margin with less than three minutes left in the half. But the Eagles dug in and Alvarez scored
11 second-quarter points with James Dennison adding seven in the period to chip the deficit down to 50-38 at halftime. Beaufort did a better job of defending the perimeter in the second half, holding the Knights without a 3-pointer after they knocked down five before the break. Odom and Michael Dennison heated up in the third, as each scored three buckets, and Alvarez matched them with six points in the quarter as the Eagles surged within three going to the fourth. But all three fouled out in the fourth along with reserve forward Davis Willis, leaving the Eagles with a skeleton crew
down the stretch. James Dennison scored eight more points in the fourth quarter, but the Eagles were out of gas, and the Knights iced it with a prolific performance from the foul line, going 31-for-42 overall, including 14-of20 in the fourth quarter. Deuce Hudson scored 17 of his game-high 27 points in the first half, while Darren Lloyd added 18, Bryson Graves scored 14, and Valerian Bruce had 13 for West Florence. Beaufort finished the season with a 15-6 record and won its first region title since 2016. West Florence (23-3) travels to North Augusta for a Lower State semifinal matchup Thursday.
LowcoSports team launches local golf website
LowcoSports.com It was the game of golf that put Hilton Head Island on the map when Charles Fraser saw through a vision too grand for most to fathom and brought in Pete Dye and Jack Nicklaus to design a world-class golf course that finished along Calibogue Sound. The legendary Arnold Palmer won the first Heritage Classic in Sea Pines over Thanksgiving weekend in 1969, and Hilton Head began its
rapid ascent from sleepy island to tourist hotbed. Like the visitors who began to come here to escape their realities for a moment and enjoy our beautiful beaches, relaxing trails, and laid-back vibe, our fabulous golf courses seemed to increase in number annually. It was only a matter of time before HHI became something of a Mecca for the sport, a pilgrimage on par with Pinehurst for those in search
of a getaway built around golf. From the Hilton Head Island Junior Golf Association to the RBC Heritage, and from the par3 course on the First Tee of the Lowcountry’s Hilton Head Island campus to Harbour Town Golf Links, golf is an integral part of the fabric of our community, and locals and visitors alike who love the game deserve a better source of information. A little over a year in develop-
ment, we’re finally ready to introduce the world to LowcoGolf.com, which we hope will become your headquarters for golf in the South Carolina Lowcountry. We’ll cover local golfers and tournaments from the juniors to the pros, report on news from the local golf industry, and provide course reviews and features to help you navigate the Lowcountry golf scene.

Warriors’ late-game luck runs out in 2nd round
LowcoSports.com Whale Branch boys basketball kept finding ways to win, and the Warriors did it again in the first round of the SCHSL Class 1A playoffs. But their late-game luck ran out Saturday in a 49-46 loss at Hannah-Pamplico on Saturday. AJ Singleton delivered a standout performance for the Warriors in a 54-49 home win over Hemingway in Thursday’s first round, as the senior racked up 19 points to lead all scorers. Queashawn Fields scored a big 10 points, and Keith Chisholm added eight to send the Warriors into the second round. After an evenly-played first half tied at 24, Jim Raymond’s team found a

from page B1 operates with at least some degree of transparency and order, complete with a vast and explicit set of policies and procedures, as well as an appeal process to mediate any disputes and provide clarity and consistency in how the rules are interpreted and applied. Meanwhile it’s sometimes the case that no one involved — even coaches and athletic directors — seems to know exactly what a SCISA policy is or how to interpret it, even if it’s published on the organization’s website. A prime example is one that is relevant to the current conversation — how does the SCISA “flex” region system work, and how are teams that play unbalanced schedules relative to their classification evaluated for playoff seeding purposes? Ask 10 different people, and you’re likely to get close to 10 different answers, many of which are a variation on, “Heck if I know.” As you may be aware — or may have been wondering

HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL ROUNDUP
Warriors can’t get past top-ranked Eagles
The third time did not prove to be the charm for the Whale Branch girls basketball team, which suffered its third loss of the season at the hands of top-ranked Military Magnet on Monday, ending the Warriors’ season with a 56-44 defeat in the third round of the SCHSL Class 1A playoffs. Whale Branch earned a third crack at the Eagles with a 67-46 road win over Estill on Friday as Kynew Barnabout — for all sports other than football, Hilton Head Prep (a SCISA 3A school) and Holy Trinity (a SCISA 1A school) compete in SCISA Region 4-2A as “flex” teams. This means they play their region schedules against primarily 2A schools but compete against 3A schools in the postseason. As a result, the Dolphins often have a gaudy record in sports such as basketball, soccer, and baseball, but it is difficult to objectively measure their results against their 3A peers who play a more challenging region slate. This often leads to HHP receiving a lower seed than it otherwise might have, giving the Dolphins a tougher first-round draw and path through the playoffs, which compounds the fact that they are not always playoff-ready due to a weaker regular-season schedule. Ironically, it can have the opposite effect on Holy Trinity, as the Mighty Lions take their lumps against the big boys and have an ugly record to show for it, but are battle-tested to compete against fellow 1A schools in the postseason, and their soccer teams have enjoyed
well poured in 30 points, Layla Love added 13, and Heaven Grant contributed 11 to send the Warriors in the third round. The Warriors were never really in it Monday, though, playing catchup from the start after managing only four points in the first quarter and trailing by nine after eight minutes. Barnwell heated up in the second quarter, scoring 12 of her game-high 28 points in the period, but the Warriors were only able to shave one point off the deficit and went to half-
great postseason success. This setup also impacts the 2A schools — sometimes positively, but often negatively. Teams like Beaufort Academy, John Paul II, Hilton Head Christian Academy, Thomas Heyward, and Colleton Prep benefit from the strong competition provided by a 3A school, but the lack of clarity about how the “flex” setup impacts seeding is a concern. The coaches I talked to throughout the season were under the impression only their records against the 2A schools in the region would impact their playoff seeding, and they were of the belief that they would be seeded on the appropriate line according to their region finish, which is how SCISA handles the football playoffs in every classification. Apparently, that wasn’t the case. Even though there are four regions in SCISA 2A, the four seeds on each line were not awarded equitably. Beaufort Academy was the highest 2A finisher in the boys basketball region, suffering only one loss to a 2A opponent in region play and two to HHP. The Eagles had a 31-7 record entering the playoffs
time trailing 33-25. The Warriors couldn’t make any headway in the second half, as freshman Dream Watson scored eight of her team-best 18 points in the third quarter to help push the advantage to 14, and the Eagles held the line in the fourth.
Pee Dee’s power in paint puts JPII out of playoffs
John Paul II boys basketball came up short in the opening round of the SCISA 2A playoffs on Saturday, fall-
(including several forfeits) and played against teams from every classification in the state, public and private — and beat a team at every level except SCHSL 5A (they lost in overtime to Stall). Yet they were a No. 2 seed. Thomas Heyward finished right behind BA after an incredible season on the heels of canceling the 202021 campaign, even knocking off the Eagles to split the season series. Their reward? A No. 3 seed and a trip to Calhoun Academy for the only true road game in the first round of the tournament, resulting in an early exit. (SCISA’s decision to play all postseason games in select sports at neutral sites might get its own column for another day; I’m not a fan, to say the least. But regardless, if you’re going to use neutral sites, they have to be neutral for everyone.) John Paul II and Bethesda Academy tied for the next spot in the region, and the Blazers should have won the tiebreaker and earned a No. 3 seed by any measure of logic, yet both were seeded on the No. 4 line and forced to face top seeds
dug deep on defense in the second, holding Hannah-Pamplico to just two points in the period to trim the lead to 17-14. Singleton scored 11 of his game-high 18 points in the third quarter including a trio of three-pointers as the Warriors pulled even going to the fourth tied at 38, but the Raiders edged away down the stretch to end Whale Branch’s season. Singleton gave it his all in the second half, leading his team with 18 points including 11 in the third period. Chisholm scored 10 points for Whale Branch, and Quintillian Fields added seven. Whale Branch concludes its season with a record of 17-8.

in the first round. SCISA claims to have a committee that seeds the playoff brackets using some unpublished metrics, but no one seems to know who or what is making the determinations, and there seems to be very little rhyme or reason, so good luck piecing together the rationale on your own. We invited SCISA AD Mike Fanning to be a guest on the LowcoSports Lowdown podcast this week and intended to clarify some of these questions, but we did not receive a reply. The proposed realignment plan for the next two years will serve to correct some of the issues plaguing SCISA as an organization and driving coaches and ADs up the walls. The addition of a fourth classification allows for more parity from top to bottom in each class, but it also reduces the number of teams competing for watered-down state titles and still relies on the “flex” regions to work around issues that can’t be fixed, such as geography. But the problems that prevent some SCISA programs and athletes from being taken more seriously
by college recruiters and talent evaluators will remain unless the organization’s leaders address the lack of clarity and consistency applied to policies and procedures and become more transparent and accountable to the people they serve. SCISA’s history and reputation are not sterling, but it serves an important niche in the South Carolina high school sports landscape and provides countless opportunities to student-athletes who might not otherwise have them. But the model of good ole boys making it up as they go along doesn’t work anymore. As the culture continues to evolve within the league and its schools, SCISA has an opportunity to embrace change, focus on transparency, organization, and legitimacy, and chart a different course for the future.

Quitting was never an option Female Marine graduates after 11 months at Parris Island
By Sgt. Sarah Ralph 12th Marine Corps District Pfc. Ana DominguezValazquez, a Marine from Recruiting Sub-Station Fullerton, Recruiting Station Orange County, shipped to recruit training at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island on March 15, 2021. She entered recruit training prepared and resilient at the beginning of June 2021, but after obtaining a serious injury, had to quickly adapt her plan. One month into recruit training, DominguezValazquez started having pain in her hips. The Navy doctors informed her she had broken her hip during training. “I honestly don’t even remember how or when I broke it,” DominguezValazquez said. “All I could think about was the fact that I knew I couldn’t continue with my platoon in training.” Shortly after finding out the news, DominguezValazquez transferred to the female rehabilitation platoon (FRP) on the depot. FRP is for recruits who become injured during training and need time to rehabilitate until they are ready to continue. “There were times in FRP that I was really down about
being hurt, but there was this one recruit who I really looked up to that kept me going,” DominguezValazquez said. “She was originally in my sister platoon when I started out in November Company, and she was extremely resilient. I looked up to her because she never gave up, regardless of her injury or how long she took to get better.” DominguezValazquez went in and out of training as she tried to push through her injury to become a Marine. She went into three different companies before being placed in her final platoon. “It felt like forever being out of training,” DominguezValazquez said. “On the bright side, I was able to build a whole new family in FRP. Even now, I’m still a little sad knowing some of the females I was with are still there.” It took seven months in total for DominguezValazquez to completely heal before returning to training with Kilo Company. Finally, she returned where she was initially pulled from training, grass week. Grass week is where recruits start learning the fundamentals of rifle marksmanship. “It truly feels absolutely amazing to have finally graduated and earned the title, Unit-
ed States Marine,” DominguezValazquez said. “When I was in FRP, I’d see people come back from the crucible, and it would make me so sad. Coming back from the crucible, I was so happy I can’t even put it into words. I was yelling cadence so loudly, thinking to myself that I finally made it.” After 11 months spent on Parris Island and enduring challenges she never thought she would face, DominguezValazquez graduated from recruit training on Feb. 11, 2022. Even though she had some doubts during her time, she knew quitting was never an option. “I think if someone ever goes through something similar to me, they should remind themselves that if you start something, you should finish it,” DominguezValazquez said. “We have so much time in our lives, and this is such a small moment compared to that. It felt so quick going from the yellow footprints to a Marine.” D o m i n g u e z Va l a z q u e z embodied the definition of resilience by facing and overcoming adversity. After graduating, DominguezValazquez will attend Marine Combat Training. There, she will find out what her occupation for the Marine Corps will be.

Veterans need to have a copy of the VA Welcome Kit
V
eterans, service members, and their families and survivors should learn what the Veterans Administration (VA) can do for them by downloading and printing a copy of The VA Welcome Kit. Veterans, military members, and their families can download and print out a black and white or color copy of their VA Welcome Kit at https://www.va.gov/ welcome-kit/. The VA Welcome Kit (Guide) provides a broad overview of services the VA can offer you. To access more information about VA benefits and services, visit the VA online at https:// www.va.gov. Whether you’re just getting out of the service or you have been a civilian for years now, the VA Welcome Kit can help guide you to the benefits and services you’ve earned. The VA advises you to keep your welcome kit handy so you can turn to it throughout your life. Military members, veterans, and their spouses and children (and survivors) need to be familiar with their veterans’ benefits. Veterans need the information in their VA Welcome Kit when it is time to go to school, get a job, buy a house, get health care, retire, or make plans for their care as they age. The VA recommends that veterans share The VA Welcome Guide with friends or family members who need help with their benefits too. Veterans can print out copies for themselves and others.

Seeking God
Engine Troubles “I Don’t Need God”
Going down the highway, the “check engine” light comes on. If you are driving an older car with lots of wear and tear, it would not come as a great surprise that you need a mechanic. You would be expecting to visit one sooner or later. But if your car is new and in great condition, it would be easy to assume you won’t be needing a mechanic. The indicator light might come as a real surprise, and you may ignore it as a false alarm.
With worldly blessings, we can think we don’t need God. Those who have all of their material needs met, for example, are more likely to feel self-reliant. They don’t need to depend on anyone else, including God. Even if everything is not perfect, most of us live comfortably. We have family and friends who love us and care for us. We have plenty of ways to be entertained. In such times, it is easy to think, “I’m doing just fine without God.”
Those who are struggling tend to be more open to God. When people are vulnerable, aware of their weaknesses and their struggles, they are like the first drivers in our example. They more easily recognize their need for God, and they are often more receptive to his guidance. This is probably why, throughout Scripture, God tends to work through those who are lowly instead of the important and powerful.
But there are often signs that all is not well. Like the “check engine” light coming on in our car, there are often subtle signs that all is not going as well as we pretend. We may struggle with anxiety or depression. There might be a boredom to our lives, or a quiet sense that something important is missing. We may distract ourselves from these realities with constant noise or activities, so that we don’t have to be silent and ask ourselves deeper questions. Sometimes, this interior pain can manifest itself through unhealthy relationships or behaviors, or we try to dull the pain with overeating, pornography, drinking, or drugs. Have you ever had unexpected joy? Besides paying attention to the warning signs that you might be experiencing, it can also help to look at the times that life has surprised you. Have there been times in your life when you have felt that life could not get any better, and yet someone or something entered your life and brought you unexpected joy? This is how it can be with God. When we invite him into our lives, we begin to discover a joy and a peace deeper than what we knew before.
