Henry McMaster announced Wednesday. Jonathan Jones has been with Clarendon County Fire Department for the

last 15 years and has served as deputy chief of operations for the department since 2014, according to a news release announcing his appointment. Jones has 22 years of experience in emergency response training and operations, the release said. Jones said he was pleased to be selected. “I am very honored that he has that kind of faith in me that he would select me for the position,” Jones said. McMaster praised Jones’ qualifications.

IRS striking back as agents make dent in identity theft WASHINGTON (AP) — The IRS strikes back: The tax agency reports that the number of identity theft victims plummeted last year after agents struggled for years to combat what has become a multibillion-dollar industry. The number of victims dropped by 46 percent, to 376,000, the IRS said. These taxpayers had their identities stolen by criminals who used their Social Security numbers and birthdates to obtain fraudulent tax refunds. The IRS stopped nearly 1 million fraudulent refunds from being issued last year. They totaled almost $6.6 billion, the agency said.

“It’s a much more challenging time for the cybercrooks,” said Mark Ciaramitaro, vice president for retail tax products and services at H&R Block. “All of the easy paths have been closed.” Identity theft exploded from 2010 to 2012, and “for a time overwhelmed law enforcement and the IRS,” said John Dalrymple, deputy IRS commissioner for services and enforcement. At the IRS, it peaked in 2014, when the agency identified more than 766,000 victims. That same year, the IRS blocked 1.8 million in fraudulent refunds from being issued. They totaled $10.8 billion. “We’ve driven a lot of the fraud

out of the system,” Dalrymple said. The IRS is a popular target for sophisticated identity thieves because the agency issues more than $300 billion in tax refunds each year. Several years ago, it was as simple as using another person’s Social Security number and birthdate

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican leaders drove their long-promised legislation to dismantle Barack Obama’s health care law over its first big hurdles in the House on Thursday and claimed fresh momentum despite cries of protest from right, left and center. After grueling all-night sessions, the Energy and Commerce and Ways and Means committees both approved their portions of the bill along party-line votes. The legislation, strongly supported by President Trump, would replace the tax penalties for the uninsured under Obama’s Affordable Care Act with a conservative blueprint likely to cover far fewer people but, Republicans hope, increase choice. The vote in Ways and Means came before dawn,

Lawsuit says school district underpaid employees COLUMBIA (AP) — A woman fired by a South Carolina school district has sued her former employer, accusing officials of conspiring to get rid of her after she repeatedly pointed out dozens of employees weren’t being paid properly in violation of federal law. Machelle Thompson’s $11 million federal whistleblower lawsuit, filed this week, comes as officials with the U.S. Department of Labor confirmed to The Associated Press the agency was investigating Richland District One, which covers much of the Columbia area. In her complaint, Thompson said the district intentionally misclassified more than 40 employees to avoid paying them money they were owed. Thompson said she was formally reprimanded, then fired from her job as director of classified employment services after repeatedly informing the district’s human resources director of the underpayment issue. When she started her job in 2015 ensuring district employees were paid properly according to federal requirements, Thompson “discovered many unusual and questionable practices,” according to her lawsuit. U.S. Department of Labor spokesman Mike D’Aquino officials confirmed Thursday that the agency’s Wage and Hour Division was investigating the situation but gave no other details.

Aldi to close temporarily for upgrade BY BRUCE MILLS bruce@theitem.com A popular discount grocer in Sumter will be closing temporarily Sunday for at least five weeks for remodeling and expansion, according to a spokesperson for the supermarket chain. The Salisbury, North Carolina, division of Aldi made the comments this week through a public relations firm that works with the supermarket. The Sumter retailer, at 829 Broad St., will close Sunday at 4 p.m. and is set to reopen in late April with a new look, according to Salisbury division officials. A specific date for the reopening will be announced later. According to officials, the remodeled store will be about 18,450 total square feet with about 11,950 square feet and five aisles of sales floor space. That’s an additional 2,550 square feet of sales floor than the Sumter location currently has, for a 27 percent increase. The renovation and expansion of the local grocer is part of a $1.6 billion corporate plan — released in February — by Aldi to remodel and expand more than 1,300 of its U.S. stores by 2020, according to officials. The expansion will make room for a larger selection of

Aldi sells only the most-commonly purchased grocery items and many of those are its own brands, according to its website. The popular German super-

market chain is known for its discount prices. The grocer currently has more than 1,600 stores in 35 states in the U.S. By the end of 2018, Aldi expects to have nearly 2,000 U.S. stores, according to division officials.

Theft of Confederate items causing ruckus COLUMBIA (AP) — The caretaker of the ruins of a 260-year old South Carolina church is convinced that the theft of three iron crosses from the graves of Confederate soldiers was an act of vandalism, meant to insult the valor of the men after the shooting of nine black worshippers. “It’s disgusting that someone would desecrate graves,” Bill Sammons said. “My gut feeling is, someone wanted to destroy these symbols of the Confederacy because of that shooting in Charleston.” Police said that’s possible, but they also are investigating a second theory — that the crosses were stolen by someone seeking a piece of history, either for themselves or to sell

in the brisk market of hard-totrace Civil War memorabilia. The three Southern Crosses of Honor could have been stolen from the remote grounds of the Old Sheldon Church near Yemassee any time in the month before the thefts were reported on Monday, Beaufort County Sheriff’s spokesman Capt. Bob Brummage said. The thieves didn’t leave behind a note, graffiti or anything else to suggest why the special grave markers were taken, he said. “Until we have suspects, we won’t have a motive. And we don’t have suspects,” Brummage said. The cast iron crosses have been placed on thousands of graves across the South over

several decades by the United Daughters of the Confederacy. They are available for the final resting places of anyone who fought for the South in the Civil War. Sammons himself installed the crosses about five years ago, mounting them in concrete. He said it would have required quite an effort to remove them. He plans to replace them once the ruckus over the thefts calms down. The Old Sheldon Church was built between 1745 and 1753. Built in the style of a Greek Temple, its walls still stand. The inside of the church was gutted in 1865 when Union General William Sherman burned it on his March to the Sea. If the thieves did plan to

make money selling the crosses, they won’t get it from reputable Civil War memorabilia dealers, said Howard Alligood, who runs Arsenal Artifacts in Sylva, North Carolina. “They belong only one place — that’s a grave,” said Alligood, who is a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans. The Southern Crosses of Honor stolen from the church have no personalized markings, making them almost impossible to trace. Memorabilia dealers who buy coats, belt buckles, cups, artillery shells or other items have to rely on trust and their instincts when buying items because they have no serial numbers or other identifying marks, said Alligood.

Change smoke alarm battery when turning clocks forward BY ADRIENNE SARVIS adrienne@theitem.com When you remember to turn your clocks forward for Daylight Saving Time before going to bed Saturday night, don’t forget to also change the batteries in your smoke alarms. Sumter Fire Department Battalion Chief Johnnie Rose said smoke alarm batteries should be changed this time every year. On average, a 9-volt battery will last about one year, he said. If the battery is running low, the alarm will chirp but you should not let it get to that point, he said. The smoke alarm will continue to work while it is chirping until the battery dies completely, he said. But you should change the battery even if the alarm does not chirp so you know you are protected for another year, Rose said. “You can’t go wrong

with that,” he said. By law, every bedroom, hallway and common area in a residence must have a functioning smoke alarm, he said. Rose said the fire department will install smoke alarms inside homes for free. These smoke alarms are guaranteed to last 10 years, he said. Citizens just need to fill out an application at their nearest fire station, he said. Rose said the 10-year smoke alarms do not have replaceable batteries so the entire device will need to be replaced after 10 years. Other times throughout the year, homeowners should check the batteries in their smoke alarms by pressing the “test” button on the device. If the alarm does not beep during the test, it means the battery is dead or the battery has been removed, Rose said. He said people will sometimes re-

move the battery from a smoke alarm if they burn something when cooking and forget to put the battery back in. Cooking is the second leading cause of fire deaths in the state, preceded by electrical fires, he said. Rose also encourages people to keep a fire extinguisher in their homes. Fire extinguishers can be purchased from most hardware and home improvement stores, he said. ABC fire extinguishers are good for residences because they can put out grease, gas and electric fires, he said. If you have any doubt of where to mount your fire extinguisher, call the fire department and someone will help you, Rose said. Someone can even teach you how to use the extinguisher, he said. For more information about smoke alarms and fire extinguishers, call Sumter Fire Department at (803) 4362600.

127 grams of cocaine seized during I-95 bust FROM STAFF REPORTS Sumter County Sheriff’s Office arrested a 35-year-old Florida man on Wednesday after more than 100 grams of cocaine was found inside his rental vehicle while he was traveling south on Interstate 95 earlier that day. According to an incident report from the sheriff’s office, a deputy stopped Alfred Francis Abbedessa of 4429 Augustine Road, Spring Hill, Florida, near mile marker 135 after he saw the suspect driving less than one car length behind a truck. During the stop, the officer saw multiple 5 Hour Energy bottles and other signs of “hard travel” inside the vehicle, according to the release.

Abbedessa told the officer that he flew into New York City, New York, on Tuesday and was driving back to Florida after his father told him a pipe burst in his new house after he landed. While searching the only bag inside the vehicle’s cargo area, the officer found a vacuum-sealed package of approximately 127 grams of cocaine, a Motorola cellphone and a SIM card wrapped in white paper. The items were seized, and the vehicle was towed. Abbedessa was transported to Sumter-Lee Regional Detention Center. He has since been released after making a $30,000 surety bond set by a magistrate judge.

Caveman menu: Rhino in Belgium, mushrooms in Spain WASHINGTON (AP) — Eating like a caveman meant chowing down on woolly rhinos and sheep in Belgium, but munching on mushrooms, pine nuts and moss in Spain. It all depended on where they lived, new research shows. Scientists got a sneak peek into the kitchen of three Neanderthals by scraping off the plaque stuck on their teeth and examining the DNA. What they found smashes a common public misconception that the caveman diet was mostly meat. They also found hints that one sickly teen used primitive versions of penicillin and aspirin to help ease his pain. The dental plaque provides a lifelong record of what went in the Neanderthals’ mouths and the bacteria that lived in their guts, said study co-author Alan Cooper, director of the Australian Centre for Ancient DNA in Adelaide. “It’s like a fossil,” he said. While past studies showed varied Neanderthal diets, genetic testing allowed researchers to say what kind of meat or mushrooms they ate, Cooper said. The 42,000-year-old Belgian Neanderthal’s menu of sheep and woolly rhino reflect-

were eaten by cannibals. The two specimens in Spain were a female adult and a teenage male, who wasn’t a son or brother but may have been some other relative according to their DNA, Weyrich said. The young male was obviously sick, with an infected mouth and other injuries, she said. But on his teeth — and only his — were two residues. One was from the poplar tree where doctors would later get a key ingredient in aspirin and the other was from mold that had a version of the antibiotic penicillin. The primitive penicillin was a surprise, Cooper said. It’s too premature to say the mold was being used for that purpose, but “it does make me wonder,” he said. The research gives direct evidence for what was already suspected about their diverse diets and use of medicine, said University of Colorado Museum’s Paola Villa, who wasn’t part of the study. She called the new study “very significant.” Neanderthals went extinct about 37,000 years ago, about 26,000 years before their dinners, the woolly rhinos, she said.

Owners treating sick animals with cannabis SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Michael Fasman’s 12-year-old dog, Hudson, limps from pain caused by arthritis and an amputated toe, but Fasman doesn’t want to give her painkillers because “they just knock her out.” So the San Francisco resident has turned to an alternative medicine that many humans use to treat their own pain and illness: marijuana. On a recent morning, Fasman squeezed several drops of a cannabis extract onto a plate of yogurt, which the Portuguese water dog lapped up in seconds. It’s become part of Hudson’s daily routine. As more states legalize marijuana for humans, more pet owners are giving their furry companions cannabis-based extracts, ointments and edibles marketed to treat everything from arthritis and anxiety to seizures and cancer. Most of these pet products, which aren’t regulated, contain cannabidiol or CBD, a chemical compound found in

cannabis that doesn’t get pets or humans high. They contain little or no tetrahydrocannabinol or THC, the cannabis compound known for

its psychoactive effects. But veterinarians say there isn’t enough scientific data to show cannabis is safe and effective for treating animals.

It pushed the mangled motor coach about 200 feet down the tracks. Authorities said it took more than an hour to get everyone out of the wreckage. Two people had to be extricated with metal-cutting equipment. Gilich attended the NTSB news conference and said he had personally known people who had died at the crossing. He stressed that changes are needed. “As far as long-term improvements to this crossing and others in the city, I will continue to press for us to close crossings so that we can work with CSX to improve safety of others,” he said in a statement posted on the city’s website. CSX spokeswoman Laura Phelps said the Biloxi area has a large number of crossing wrecks in part because there are so many railroad crossings, including 18 in a span of about 3 miles. She said she doesn’t know wheth-

‘Almost every accident like this could be avoided. But we still keep having rail crossing collisions.’

er the area has a higher rate of wrecks per crossing than in other areas. In January, a Pepsi delivery driver’s tractor-trailer was hit after getting stuck at the same

crossing. No one was hurt. Sumwalt said the crossing is the responsibility of both the city and railroad company. CSX said creating a more gradual slope would be up to the city. “Almost every accident like this could be avoided,” said David Clarke, director of the Center for Transportation Research at University of Tennessee. “But we still keep having rail crossing collisions.” Killed Tuesday were Ken and Peggy Hoffman, two former administrators with the Lockhart school district south of Austin, Texas. Ken Hoffman, 82, worked for the district for decades and had served as an assistant superintendent. His 73-year-old wife was a former elementary school principal. Also killed were Clinton Havran, 79, of Sealy, Texas, and 62-year-old Deborah Orr of Bastrop, Texas. The weeklong trip had begun Sunday and was organized by a senior citizens’ center in Bastrop, about 30 miles east of Austin. The bus belonged to Echo Transportation of the Dallas area.

Acid victims redefine beauty in Bangladesh fashion show DHAKA, Bangladesh (AP) — Teen model Shonali Khatun strutted the catwalk as the audience cheered and clapped for a fashion show held in the capital of Bangladesh. But Khatun is no ordinary model, and this was no ordinary show. She and the 14 other models are survivors of acid attacks, common in this South Asian country where spurned lovers or disgruntled family members will resort to hurling skin-burning acid at their victims. The unusual fashion show held Tuesday night in Dhaka, and attended by fashion lovers as well as diplomats including the U.S. envoy, aimed to redefine the notion of beauty while calling attention to the menace of such attacks. For 14-year-old Khatun, the event was nothing short of empowering. Khatun was attacked just days after she was born amid a property dispute involving her parents, and was left with burn scars on her face and arms. She spent nearly three years in a hospital and underwent eight operations. Her attacker has never been caught. “I am so happy to be here. One day I want to be a physician,” she said. The models, including three men, walked the catwalk, dancing and singing and showcasing woven handloom Bangladeshi designs by local designer Bibi Russel.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A Bangladeshi acid attack survivor gets her make up applied during the event ‘Beauty Redefined’ on Tuesday in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Organizers said they hoped to highlight the fact that acid victims, too often overlooked, are a vital part of society. Organizers said they hoped to highlight the fact that acid victims, too often overlooked, are a vital part of society. “We are here today to show their inner strength as they have come a long way,” said Farah Kabir, country director of the ActionAid Bangladesh that organized the show to spread awareness about the violence. “I often take inspiration from them. Their courage is huge.” Bangladesh has struggled to deal with acid attacks in recent decades, instituting harsh punishments for perpetrators, including the death sentence. The country has

also trained doctors to treat such sensitive cases and attempted to control the sale of acid, but has failed to eliminate the scourge entirely. In 2016, some 44 people were attacked with acid in Bangladesh — an annual number that has remained relatively stable. “I am ashamed of having such things in the country,” Kabir said. “Unfortunately in Bangladesh we do have acid victims because of either gender discrimination or violence, or because of greed. And we want to remind everyone the kind of injustice that has been meted out to them.”

Man allegedly posing as Bieber charged with child sex crimes BRISBANE, Australia (AP) — A 42-year-old Australian man who allegedly posed as Justin Bieber online to solicit explicit images from children has been charged with more than 900 child sex offenses, police said Thursday. Bieber, a 23-year-old Canadian pop singer, is currently in Australia performing his “Purpose World Tour.” Police have warned young fans and their parents to be extra vigilant when using the internet. Gordon Douglas Chalmers, a law lecturer at the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, was charged in November with using Facebook and Skype to impersonate the star, after tip-offs from U.S. and German authorities. Chalmers was charged with using a carriage service to procure and groom children for sex and to access child pornography. He was also charged with possessing child porn. As a result of warrants

issued in November to search his social media and messaging accounts and cloud servers, Chalmers was charged this week with another 931 child sex offenses dating back a decade, including rape and making child exploitation material, a police statement said. “The fact that so many children could believe that they were communicating with this particular celebrity highlights the need for a serious rethink about the way that we, as a society, educate our children about online safety,” Police Detective Inspector Jon Rouse said in a statement. “The breadth of offenses committed in this instance is frankly horrendous,” Rouse added. Police have not said how many children had become victims or in what countries they live. But Rouse said the investigation showed “the global reach and skill that child sex offenders have to groom and seduce victims.”

FIREFIGHTER FROM PAGE A1 job in Clarendon County and at the South Lynches Fire Department in Florence County. He attended University of South Carolina Sumter, and his degree is from USC Aiken through the bridge program, he said. Jones, a native of Manning, said his name was submitted to the governor as a candidate, and he went through a vetting process and interviews. He explained some of the responsibilities of the Fire and Life Safety Division. “One is what you would traditionally think of as a fire marshal role, and that’s codes and compliance, engineering and design, risk reduction, fire prevention and those kinds of things,” he said.

“There is an assistant fire marshal that has those responsibilities.” The S.C. Fire Academy is another part of the division, and there is a superintendent over the academy, he said. He said there is also the response branch of the division. “That is comprised of firefighter mobilization, the emergency response task force as well as the helicopter rescue team,” Jones said. He said a forest fire is primarily the jurisdiction of the S.C. Forestry Commission. “The FLSD role would be in supplementing resources for the local fire departments,” Jones said. “For example, if Sumter County had a major wildfire and they needed more

IRS FROM PAGE A1 to fill out a fake tax return claiming a big refund. If thieves filed the return early in the tax filing season — before the legitimate taxpayer — they could get refunds before the IRS received verifying financial information from employers, banks and brokers. To make it easier, thieves can get fraudulent refunds on prepaid debit cards that are not linked to bank accounts. “I think everybody got caught by surprise by how inventive the criminals were here,” Dalrymple said. “I think in general, the whole idea of identity theft caught everybody by surprise.”

Criminals can steal victims’ personal information from hospitals, doctor’s offices, universities, prisons — any entity that collects Social Security numbers and birthdates. In 2015, federal authorities broke up a massive identity theft ring in Alabama and Georgia that netted $10 million in fraudulent refunds. Among the victims: Soldiers injured in Afghanistan who were being treated at Fort Benning’s hospital. Two years ago, the IRS also teamed up with major tax preparers and state tax agencies to share information and improve security. Identity theft is “the No. 1 issue that the IRS talks to us about,” said Brian Ashcraft, director of tax compliance at Liberty Tax. “It’s been a huge focus.”

WINTER FROM PAGE A1 said the high today will be in the upper 70s. “It will be noticeably cooler beginning Saturday,” said “On Saturday, high will be around 60.” That’s only the beginning. “Saturday night rain is likely, a cold rain with lows in the upper 30s,” Linton said. Just in time for Daylight Saving to begin Sunday. Sunday, rain is likely, he said, with highs only in the lower 40s. “That is quite a change,” Linton said.

resources than Sumter, Richland, Kershaw and Lee counties could provide, they would send a request that ultimately comes to the firefighting mobilization division.” In cases of arson, Jones said South Carolina Law Enforcement Division is the primary investigating agency, but if there is a fatality, the division would assist the local fire department with gathering data and looking into what led to the fire, what the victim was doing at the time of the fire and whether there were working smoke alarms and any other protective devices in place. He said the purpose is to help the risk reduction section of the division target public education materials to those most at risk of being fire victims.

He said any frozen precipitation should stay north of the Sumter area, near the North Carolina state line. Anyone wishing to chase a few snowflakes won’t have to travel far, with the NWS calling snow “likely” Sunday in the Spartanburg area and on into Charlotte. Areas further north could get a deep freeze, with lows in the 20s across Maryland, the Virginias and Kentucky on Sunday night and into the teens in Pennsylvania and Ohio.

It’s going to stay chilly for several days, Linton said. “At least through the middle of next week,” he said. For Sumter, he said to expect Sunday night lows in the low 30s and Monday highs in the lower 50s. Freezing temperatures are possible during that period, he said. After some moisture late Saturday night and maybe Sunday, he said it looks cold and dry through Wednesday. “It looks like it’s going to be a cold period,” he said.

GOP FROM PAGE A1 while the Energy and Commerce meeting lasted past 27 hours as exhausted lawmakers groped for coffee refills, clean shirts and showers. Angry Democrats protested that Republicans were acting in the dead of night to rip insurance coverage from poor Americans. But Republican leaders sounded increasingly confident that, after seven years of empty promises about undoing Obama’s law, they might finally be able to overcome their own deep divisions and deliver a bill to Trump to sign. “This is the closest we will ever get to repealing and replacing Obamacare,” Speaker Paul Ryan of Wisconsin said at a press briefing where he arrived in shirtsleeves to deliver a wonky power-point presentation on the GOP bill, part TED talk and part Schoolhouse Rock. “The time is here. The time is now. This is the moment. And this is the closest this will ever happen.” Leaders are aiming for passage by the full House in the next couple of weeks, and from there the legislation would go to the Senate and, they hope, on to Trump’s desk. The president has promised to sign it, declaring over Twitter on Thursday, “We are talking to many groups and it will end in a beautiful picture!” Yet at the same time the president is leaving himself a political out, privately telling conservative leaders

that if the whole effort fails, Democrats will ultimately shoulder the blame for the problems that remain. Democrats reject that notion, and the entire GOP effort. “What we have seen is the Republicans’ longfeared and job-killing health bill that means less coverage and more cost to American people,” said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California. “I don’t think the president really knows what he’s talking about.” The GOP legislation would kill Obama’s requirement that everyone buy insurance by repealing the tax fines imposed on those who don’t. The bill would replace income-based subsidies Obama provided with tax credits based more on age, and insurers would charge higher premiums for customers who drop coverage for more than two months. The extra billions Washington has sent states to expand the federal-state Medicaid program would phase out, and spending on the entire program would be capped at per-patient limits. Around $600 billion in 10year tax boosts that Obama’s statute imposed on wealthy Americans and others to finance his overhaul would be repealed. Insurers could charge older customers five times more than younger ones instead of the current 3-1 limit but would still be required to include children up to age 26 in family policies, and they would be barred from imposing annual or lifetime benefit caps.

After 8 seasons, ‘Vampire Diaries’ comes to an end BY KEVIN MCDONOUGH An era ends for the CW with the series finale of “The Vampire Diaries” (9 p.m., TV14). The “Twilight”-inspired melodrama was the network’s most popular series when it debuted in 2009. At the time, the network was dabbling pretty heavily in “Supernatural” and occult themes, even airing the Faustian comedy “Reaper” in 2007. “Vampire” inspired the spinoff “The Originals” in 2013, but both have been eclipsed by “Arrow” and other comic book fare, including “The Flash,” “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow” and “Supergirl.” An hour-long “Vampire” retrospective (8 p.m.) precedes the finale. • Co-created by Judd Apatow, the romantic comedy “Love” (TV-MA) returns for a second season, streaming on Netflix. Co-creator Paul Rust stars as Gus, a nebbishy on-set tutor to spoiled Hollywood stars. Gillian Jacobs is Mickey, his intermittent love interest, a complicated woman beset with various addictions. Rust’s bespectacled Gus is deeply rooted in a thousand scenes from Woody Allen movies. While it is unfair to compare Apatow to Allen, it’s entirely appropriate. At their most self-involved and annoying, Allen’s neurotic characters were rooted in a cultural and political context. Allen’s early, funny films flirted with topicality, and his more mature works invoked pseudoacademic concerns to offer some background to the romantic shenanigans. Here, Gus and Mickey do their awkward dance in a near total vacuum. What do these characters care about? Do they read? Watch movies? Binge on TV shows? Have families? The closest that the first episode of this season comes to a meaningful, nonnarcissistic conversation is a critique of the decor of Gus’ sad apartment. And even then, the fleeting references are drawn entirely from reality television. Too much topicality in a sitcom can seem contrived and quickly dated. But the complete absence of any references to anything but the firstperson-singular is equally ar-

(10:45 p.m., TCM). A cultural curiosity from 1969 that was adapted by director Stanley Donen from Charles Dyer’s two-act play, it concerns an aging gay hair stylist and his lover bickering about their relationship and lives. Panned in its day, it has fallen into obscurity.

LATE NIGHT ANNETTE BROWN / THE CW

Paul Wesley, left, stars as Stefan and Ian Somerhalder as Damon in the “I Was Feeling Epic” series finale episode of “The Vampire Diaries,” airing at 9 p.m. today on the CW. tificial. Watching “Love” is like being a third wheel on the most boring date of all time. • Also streaming is the second and final season of the Amazon Prime series “Hand of God,” starring Ron Perlman and Dana Delany. In my review of the first season, I found this show so pretentious that it became “unintentionally hilarious.” Vox called it “mind-bogglingly bad.” Help yourself. • This week we lost Robert Osborne, the genial, erudite TCM host who introduced movies seven days a week and seemingly 24 hours a day for more than 20 years. Unlike most television personalities, Osborne appeared comfortable in his own skin and aware that he had landed the dream job of sharing his passion for classic films.

Over-brimming with knowledge, he never came on as a know-it-all. As an interviewer, he actually listened. And he was a movie buff of a certain age who was eager and comfortable to share the spotlight with guests and other hosts many years his junior. I will miss his Hollywood insights. But I will mostly miss his graceful presence. I’m sure many feel the same way. TCM has announced a salute to Osborne, airing 48 hours of his interviews with Hollywood legends over the weekend of March 18-19.

‘American Crime’ returns with more grim stories BY KEVIN MCDONOUGH “American Crime” (10 p.m., ABC, TV-14) enters its third season. As it has in the past, it offers interconnected stories with a specific theme, in this case, how Americans of all classes benefit and even prosper from a system of exploitation that goes on right under our noses. We meet Luis Salazar (Benito Martinez), an undocumented worker who learns that his chance to prosper as a migrant farmer amounts to little more than slavery. On the other side of the divide, Cherry Jones plays the proud head of a family tomato farm squeezed by buyers like Walmart whose demand for low prices all but force her to hire black market workers at illegal wages. Parallel stories look at male and female teens turned into prostitutes by their boyfriends and relatives, and a social worker (Regina King) who tries to help them, perhaps at the expense of her own health. “Crime” features important stories, compelling characters, solid performances and a definite point of view. For the third season in a row, I found myself thinking, “I really should watch this.” And maybe that’s just the problem. In life, as in television, there is a difference between the things we should do and those we really want to. Particularly when there are simply so many choices. I find “Crime” shrouded in a grim importance — even selfimportance — that turns it into a bit of a chore. This is a serious show about serious topics. We get that. But there are no light moments here at all, no characters with weird tics or quirks to make them seem more human, three-dimensional and relatable. There’s a difference between seriousness and humorlessness, and I’m afraid “American Crime” suffers from the latter. • Not unlike The Rock, wrestler John Cena has turned himself into a go-to TV host and entertainment figure. Cena, who hosted “Saturday Night Live” last December, will be the master of ceremonies at the 2017 Kids’ Choice Awards (8 p.m. Saturday, Nickelodeon, TV-G). Cena is no stranger to Nick-

elodeon viewers, having appeared in the children’s film “Fred: The Movie,” adapted from a web video and shown on Nickelodeon in 2010. Musical guests include Machine Gun Kelly and Camila Cabello, who will perform their platinum-selling No. 1 single, “Bad Things.” Not unlike the MTV Movie Awards, these proceedings are remembered more for silly categories than the eventual winners. This year features nine new categories, including “Favorite Frenemies,” “Most Wanted Pet” and “#Squad.” The Kids Choice Awards also leads into Nickelodeon’s new series “Hunter Street” (9:30 p.m.), a live-action adventure about five foster children who band together to find their missing parents. • Not necessarily for the kids, the stand-up special “Jerrod Carmichael: 8” (10 p.m. Saturday, HBO, TV-MA) features the comedian and star of NBC’s “Carmichael Show” offering his off-center take on such subjects as Trump’s victory, climate change, supporting the troops, animal rights and being a good boyfriend.

SATURDAY’S HIGHLIGHTS • After her soccer coach spurns her romantic overtures, a disturbed young woman sets out to destroy his girlfriend in the 2017 shocker

“The Wrong Student” (8 p.m., Lifetime). • “Planet Earth II” (9 p.m., BBC America, TV-PG) explores the unique ecosystem of deserts. • Hostility between male sea lions calls for their separation and some seriously heavy lifting on “The Zoo” (10 p.m., Animal Planet, TV-PG). • Scarlett Johansson hosts “Saturday Night Live” (11:30 p.m., NBC, TV-14), featuring musical guest Lorde.

SUNDAY’S HIGHLIGHTS • Scheduled on “60 Minutes” (7 p.m., CBS): profiles of twicepoisoned anti-Putin activist Vladimir Kara-Murza and former Guantanamo Bay detainee Mohamedou Ould Slahi. • “The Simpsons” (8 p.m., Fox, TV-PG) parodies ESPN’s “30 for 30” documentary format with a tale of Bart’s basketball career. • Julien’s health undermines his search for the truth on “The Missing” (8 p.m., Starz, TVMA). • Elizabeth blocks a forward pass on “Madam Secretary” (9 p.m., CBS, TV-14). • A delivery does not go as planned on “The Walking Dead” (9 p.m., AMC, TV-MA). • Nathan plans a dinner party on “Big Little Lies” (9 p.m., HBO, TV-MA). • Carrie and Saul make their case on “Homeland” (9 p.m., Showtime, TV-MA).

• Flint tries to manage Silver’s anger on “Black Sails” (9 p.m., Starz, TV-MA). • A conspiracy seems plausible on “Elementary” (10 p.m., CBS, TV-14). • Joan and Bette’s plan to act like professionals is torpedoed by the studio’s efforts to play up their rivalry on “Feud” (10 p.m., FX, TV-MA). • Hannah’s mother balks at her choices on “Girls” (10 p.m., HBO, TV-MA). • Axe mulls a charity donation on “Billions” (10 p.m., Showtime, TV-MA). • Pete gets a chance to listen to the street on “Crashing” (10:30 p.m., HBO, TV-MA). • “Believer with Reza Aslan” (10 p.m., CNN) explores a Hawaiian doomsday cult.

JEFF MACNELLY’S SHOE

Woman’s younger beau hides her from his family DEAR ABBY — I’m 51 and my boyfriend is 43. We’ve been dating for eight months, living together for five. We Dear Abby met at work ABIGAIL a few VAN BUREN months before we started dating. We get along great and never argue, but he won’t let me meet his family. He has never been married and has no children. He sees his mom and brother sometimes for dinner and such, but because his mom doesn’t have any grandchildren and I can’t give her any, he said he’s not ready to tell her about me. Does this

make sense? Outsider in Louisiana DEAR OUTSIDER — If, after eight months of dating and living together for five, you still haven’t met his family, he has no intention of introducing you — ever. Your inability to give his mother grandchildren has nothing to do with it. You are a human being, not a broodmare, and the excuse he’s giving you makes no sense. Picture this scenario: “Hey, Ma, this is ‘Becky’ and she’s fertile!” Puh-leeze! DEAR ABBY — My sister, who is very religious, sent my gay daughter a Bible with her name engraved on it for Christmas, even though we told her — after she asked for suggestions — that a gift card would be more appro-

priate. We are not religious, by the way. My wife and I feel strange about it, as if my sister is trying to tell us something like, “Your gay daughter needs religion.” How should we respond to this? Baffled in the East DEAR BAFFLED — You do not have to respond. The Bible was a gift for your daughter, and the “privilege” of acknowledging it, ignoring it or regifting it is hers. What I do not recommend is allowing your sister’s gift choice to become an argument about your family’s values. 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. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

COMMENTARY

The biggest source of fake news in America is …

any of us — no, make that most of us — have lost faith in important American institutions — which, and forgive me for stating the obvious, is not a good thing in a free country like ours. A Gallup poll last June found that given a long list of institutions, Americans had “a great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in just three — the military, small business and the police. Not doing so well were organized religion, the Supreme Court, Bernard public schools, Goldberg banks, organized labor, and big business. Congress came in dead last. Just 9 percent of respondents said they had a lot of confidence in the institution. I’m assuming more than a few blood relatives of senators and members of congress were counted in that 9 percent. Then there’s the news media. According to a recent Gallup poll, “Americans’ trust and confidence in the mass media ‘to report the news fully, accurately and fairly’ has dropped to its lowest level in Gallup polling history, with 32% saying they have a great deal or fair amount of trust in the media.” We don’t even trust each other. A poll taken a month before the presidential election last year found that only 31 percent said, “most people can be trusted.” As for the president, a USA Today poll conducted this month says that 47 percent of Americans approve of his job performance while 44 percent don’t. “On personality, though, there is a broad and negative consensus,” according to the poll. “By 60 percent to 30 percent those polled disapprove of Trump’s temperament, and 59% say he tweets too often.” The president has heard that before. But the tweeter-in-chief is unmoved. By tweeting, he believes, he can go over the heads of what he calls the fake news media and speak directly to the American people. But even if he has enemies in the press — and he does! — the main source of fake news in America isn’t the New York Times or the Washington Post or CNN. It’s the president himself. Let’s be kind and simply say he disseminates a lot of information that isn’t in the same zip code as the truth. He doesn’t seem to grasp an important concept: The truth matters, especially when you’re the president. One day he’ll have to tell the nation something truly important – something that might require sacrifice from the American

people. We need to believe what he says. And the president’s latest unsubstantiated tweet alleging that he “just found out” that former President Barack Obama “had my ‘wires tapped’ in Trump Tower” just before the election is only the latest example of how this president shoots first and asks questions later. Now he says he wants an investigation. Of what? To see if what he told us was true? This might be funny if he weren’t the most important person in the free world. Instead of impulsively tweeting something he couldn’t prove, the president should have checked around before sending out his inflammatory message that put another welldeserved ding in his credibility. He could have asked the FBI chief what he knew. He could have done a whole bunch of things — but decided to do the one thing that caused him the most damage. So what else is new? President Trump didn’t start the fire. Trust in our institutions has been eroding for a while now. But his intemperate claim that Barack Obama bugged his offices during the presidential campaign only fuels the mistrust and ratchets up the already dangerous polarization in America. So here’s an idea: Apologists who have defended Donald Trump no matter what he’s said and done, need to do him a favor. They need to take him aside and let him know that if he wants to be a successful president he has to start acting like a president and stop imitating Pinocchio. They need to tell him to figure out a way to control his impulse to fire back at every slight, real or imagined. And someone needs to shut down his Twitter account, for his own good. And the Democrats need to grow up too. Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi need to tell their hyper-partisan base, a base that won’t rest until Donald Trump is impeached, that it’s not going to happen; and that as supposed “leaders” they will no longer reflexively oppose every idea the president and his party have just to make angry progressives a little less angry. They need to make clear that acting on principle is one thing; partisan politics and obstructionism are something else. But delivering such a message would take courage, and that’s a commodity in short supply in Washington. Both sides need a timeout. Milk and cookies will be provided. I know, I’m dreaming.

COMMENTARY

Down the conspiracy rabbit hole

ASHINGTON — When he was Ronald Reagan’s secretary of state, George Shultz was once asked about the CIA’s disavowal of involvement in a mysterious recent bombing in Lebanon. Replied Shultz: “If the CIA denies something, it’s denied.” Has there ever been a more dry, more wry, more ironic verdict on the world of espionage? Within it, there is admission and denial, smoke and mirrors, impenetrable fog and Charles Krauthammer deliberate obfuscation. Truth? Ask the next guy. Which is why my default view of espionage is to never believe anyone because everyone is trained in deception. This is not a value judgment; it’s a job description. We learn, for example, from Tuesday’s spectacular WikiLeaks dump that among the CIA’s various and nefarious cybertools is the capacity to simulate intrusion by a foreign power, the equivalent of planting phony fingerprints on a smoking gun. Who are you going to believe now? I can assure you that some enterprising Trumpite will use this revelation to claim that the whole storyline pointing to Russian interference in the U.S. election was a fabrication. And who was behind that? There is no end to this hall of mirrors. My rule, therefore, is: Stay away. Hard to do with Washington caught up in one of its periodic conspiracy frenzies. Actually, two. One, anti-Donald Trump, is that he and his campaign colluded with Russian intelligence. The other, anti-Barack

Obama-CIA-”deep state,” is that Obama wiretapped Trump Tower to ensnare candidate Trump. The odd thing is that, as of today, there is no evidence for either charge. That won’t, of course, stop the launch of multiple allconsuming investigations. (1) Collusion: James Clapper, Obama’s director of national intelligence, who has been deeply and publicly at odds with Trump, unequivocally states that he has seen zero evidence of any Trump campaign collusion with Russia. Nor has anyone else. The contrary suspicion arises because it’s hard to explain why Michael Flynn falsely denied discussing sanctions with the Russian ambassador and why Jeff Sessions falsely denied having any contacts at all. That suggests concealment. But there was nothing inherently inappropriate with either behavior. So why conceal? Suspicion, nonetheless, is far short of assertion — and a fairly thin basis for a major investigation, let alone for a special prosecutor. To prosecute what exactly? (2) Wiretap: The other storyline is simply fantastical. Congressional Republicans have uniformly run away from Trump’s Obama-wiretap accusation. Clapper denies it. FBI Director James Comey denies it. Not a single member of Trump’s own administration is willing to say it’s true. Loopier still is to demand that Congress find the truth when the president could just pick up the phone and instruct the FBI, CIA and DNI to declare on the record whether this ever occurred. And if there really was an October 2016 FISA court order to wiretap Trump, the president could unilaterally declassify the information yesterday. The bugging story is less plausible than a zombie in-

vasion. Nevertheless, one could spin a milder — and more plausible — scenario of executive abuse. It goes like this: The intelligence agencies are allowed to listen in on foreigners. But if any Americans are swept up in the conversation, their part of it is supposed to be redacted or concealed to protect their identity. According to The New York Times, however, the Obama administration appears to have gone out of its way to make sure that information picked up about Trump associates’ contacts with Russians was as widely disseminated as possible. Under Obama, did the agencies deliberately abuse the right to listen in on foreigners as a way to listen in, improperly, on Americans? If they did, we will find out. But for now, all of this is mere conjuring. There is no evidence for either the collusion or the wiretap charge. We are headed down a rabbit hole. An enormous amount of heat and energy will be expended, ending — my guess — roughly where we started. What a waste. There is a major national agenda waiting to be debated and enacted. And there is trouble beyond the cozy confines of the capital that needs to be confronted. Self-created crisis can leave us distracted, spent and unprepared when the real thing hits. It’s unquiet out there. North Korea keeps testing missiles as practice for attacking U.S. bases in Japan. Meanwhile, we are scrambling to install an antimissile shield in South Korea as early as next month. Fuses are burning. When the detonations begin, we’d better not be in the rabbit hole.

FROM THE TIMELINE @THEITEM. LETTER TO THE EDITOR TRUMP DOESN’T NEED BELTWAY CONSPIRACY TO DELEGITIMIZE HIM

The Sumter Item is on Twitter @theitem. Follow us and keep your eye on what’s going on in the world! We will occasionally share a few noteworthy tweets with you here.

Pat Buchanan’s most recent commentary titled The Beltway Conspiracy to Break Trump and posted on March 8 in your paper raises numerous points which I will reserve commenting on except toward the end he poses the following question: “Who inside the United States is trying to discredit, damage or destroy the President of the United States”? Given Mr. Buchanan’s past experience working as a senior advisor to three Presidents along with his own runs for the Presidency, followed by a long career as a commentator, one would assume he’d

know better than anyone the answer to his question. Perhaps not; so I will offer him a hint. The person working by far the hardest to discredit, damage, and destroy the President has a first name beginning with the letter D while his last name begins with the letter T. Maybe that’s to broad. Second hint: This person when not golfing and dinning in Florida with the rich resides rent free in a large white house located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, DC. Perhaps you can pass this on to Mr. Buchanan. Thanks. WILLIAM Q. BRUNSON Sumter/New York City

The Citadel left-handed pitcher John Patrick Sears is off to a fast start for the Bulldogs this season. Sears has struck out 27 batters in 14 innings over his last two outings.

Striking a chord Citadel’s Sears off to a strong start with 27 Ks in last two outings BY DENNIS BRUNSON dennis@theitem.com In his last two outings, John Patrick Sears has been tremendous pitching for The Citadel. The left-handed Friday night starter for the Bulldogs struck out 12 batters with no walks in seven innings in a 4-0 shutout of Delaware State,

earning Southern Conference Pitcher of the Week honors in the process. He followed that with a 15-strikeout performance in seven shutout innings, walking just two and allowing four hits in a no-decision in a 3-2 loss to College of Charleston. However, he doesn’t think either game rates as his best performance at The Citadel.

“I would say they come close to my best performance, which I think may have been last year against VMI,” Sears said. He struck out 19 batters in eight innings. As far as consistency goes though, the junior finds it hard to find another pair of games to match his two latest performances. “I think this may have been

my best, most consistent stretch,” Sears said. “I felt good coming out there, my arm felt good, I was able to throw a lot of strikes. I feel my control is a lot better than it was in the past.” Sears has made three starts for the Bulldogs so far this season with his fourth one coming today against Stetson at 5 p.m. at Joe Riley

Park in Charleston. He is 1-1 on the season and owns a 2.45 earned run average. In 18 1/3 innings, he’s allowed only 13 hits while fanning 32 batters and walking just two. Sears didn’t allow his first walk of the season until he had struck out 21 batters, coming in his 14th inning of work.

Gator Classic headlines big weekend

Price’s no-no could propel SHS in region play BY JUSTIN DRIGGERS justin@theitem.com

BY JUSTIN DRIGGERS justin@theitem.com For the first time in the 20year history of the Gator Classic high school boys soccer tournament, the championship match ended in a tie last year with both Lakewood and Lake City walking away as cochampions. “It was exciting and everybody played well,” Lakewood head coach Mike Carraher said. “It was a hard-fought game, but this year we’d like to win it outright.” The Gators will get a chance to do that come Saturday as Gator Classic XXI kicks off beginning at 9 a.m. at J. Frank Baker Stadium. It’s one of a number of events around Sumter on a busy Saturday that includes the Sumter Optimist Relays and the SCISA Challenge softball tournament at Patriot Park SportsPlex. The Gator Classic begins with Calhoun Academy taking on host Lakewood at 9 a.m. followed by Manning against tourney newcomer Keenan at 10:15 a.m. The losers of the two games will meet for third place at 12:15 p.m. with the championship match between the winners scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Each game will consist of two 30-minute halves with a 5-minute halftime. Any contest that ends in a regulation tie will count as a draw, but a shootout will determine the winner. Admission is $6 for all four games.

Sumter High School starting pitcher Dawson Price tossed a nohitter against Cane Bay on Wednesday during the Gamecocks’ 2-0 victory. SHS is 5-0 heading into today’s Region VI-5A opener at Socastee.

Dawson Price’s stride was a little long in the first inning of Wednesday’s matchup against Cane Bay at Gamecock Field. “Whenever I first started the game, I was long and out front and walked a couple batters,” Price said. “But (pitching) Coach (Joe) Norris told me to shorten up my stride. That helped me out a lot. My curveball started to break better.” A lot better. Price’s curve was a major factor in the Gamecocks’ 2-0 shutout and was a big reason why he finished with 11 strikeouts, two walks – and no hits allowed. “That’s my first no-hitter as a Sumter High Gamecock, so it feels really good,” said Price, who also tossed a nohitter for the Sumter P-15’s American Legion team during the summer. “I felt a lot smoother after the first inning. I started cruising and didn’t have to put too much

effort into any (pitch). It just felt good.” Still, Price said he didn’t realize he had a no-no going until one out in the seventh inning. “I just got up there and I was throwing – I wasn’t really paying attention to how many outs or strikeouts I had,” Price said. “It was exciting. Everyone was happy and we all had a good time.” Price was so dominant that SHS head coach Brooks Shumake said there really wasn’t any defensive play that the Gamecocks had to make that wasn’t routine. “They just hit at’em balls and popups and things of that nature,” Shumake said. “You could tell early on Dawson had good stuff. He stayed in every pitch, which is something we’ve stressed to our guys on the mound that every pitch is a critical one. But his curveball was nasty and he was right around the knees and really

USC MEN’S BASKETBALL

Gamecocks looking to lock up Dance invitation BY DAVID CLONINGER The State NASHVILLE — They just don’t want to take a chance. “We’ll approach trying to win an SEC championship. The NCAA Tournament, that’s after the conference tournament,” SEC Player of the Year Sindarius Thornwell said. “Our main focus is winning and advancing and trying to win the tournament. That’s the only thing we’re focusing on right now.” Not that South Carolina looked

ahead last year. It wanted to beat Georgia in the SEC tournament quarterfinals, and J.J. Frazier drove a stake through their hearts. Still, they left Nashville on Friday night knowing they might have to go to Dayton for a First Four game, but they were in the NCAA tournament. By noon Saturday, they were out. Projections dropped them, more upsets began happening and after one of the nuttiest 36 hours in recent history, the prediction was upheld. Power-5 conference teams with 24-8 records don’t get left out. USC did.

Which is why, even though they seem to be assured of the Dance heading into Friday’s SEC tournament quarterfinal, they’re still triple-checking the reservation. “We have to approach it as a weeklong commitment,” coach Frank Martin said. “We’ve got to make sure our guys are in a good place mentally to go at these games, because they’re all so hard in this league.” The resume that was dissected last year seems to be safely preserved in

SEARS FROM PAGE B1 Sears didn’t allow his first walk of the season until he had struck out 21 batters, coming in his 14th inning of work. “You can’t defend the walk, so you want to throw strikes,” he said. “You want to be in control and throw strikes and be wild in the strike zone. I try to go out there and get the first batter out in each inning. That really helps.” The Citadel pitching coach Britt Reames said the reasons for Sears’ marked improvement is three-fold – as in his ability to throw three pitches for strikes. “JP has certainly matured,” Reames said. “He’s controlling his fastball better; he’s controlling his slider better. And this year we’ve added the changeup and he has great control of that. It’s tough to hit someone when he can throw three pitches for strikes. That’s been a great equalizer for him. “We’ve taken baby steps with him. We worked on the slider last year and added the changeup this season. We worked on it hard in fall practice and in spring training practice. He’s comfortable throwing it any time in the count.” Sears said he felt good coming out of the bullpen to start both games, but it was his performance in the early going that let him know how successful he might be. “When you start with strikeouts early in the game, it gives you a good feeling,” Sears said. “It’s when you go through the second time around and you get through pretty easy that you know that you really have your stuff that day. That makes the third time a lot easier. “When you can throw your curveball anywhere in the count. When it’s later in the count and you throw a 3-2 curve that makes you very effective.” Sears is averaging 15.71 strikeouts per nine innings, which is eighth in the country. He is seventh in strikeout-to-walk ratio at 16:1. Reames said Sears is throwing his fastball in the 87- to 90-mile per hour range. “He’s able to throw it where he wants,” Reames said. “When you command that pitch and mix in the curve and the changeup, that can make you pretty difficult to hit.” The Bulldogs are off to a 3-8 start, but Sears feels they have a chance to do really well in the Southern Conference. “There seems to have been a couple of things that we’re messing up each game,” he said. “We’ve got a lot of guys who like to compete, and I think we’ll get better and we’ll be ready when we start Southern Conference play in a couple of weeks.”

GATOR FROM PAGE B1 “Should be very good competition – it’s kind of like a mini-playoff,” Carraher said. “It’s always fun to play in these tournaments because anyone can win.” Lakewood was 3-0 entering Thursday’s game against Lower Richland and Carraher is hoping to see continued improvement from his squad. “We’re starting to play very well,” he said. “Building continuity and chemistry was something we worked on in the preseason and it seems like it’s starting to pay off early on. We lost quite a few seniors, but the younger returners are starting to step up and fill those leadership roles and we’ve also got some new faces that have contributed as well.” Also taking place this weekend are the Sumter Optimist Relays which will be held Saturday at Sumter Memorial Stadium. Sumter, Crestwood, Beaufort, Colleton County, South Florence, Thomas Sumter Academy and Richland One Middle College are scheduled to compete in events starting at 10:15 a.m. The field events will take place first, starting with the men’s shot put, with the track events slated to begin around 10:40 a.m. starting with the women’s open 1600-meter. The women’s 4x400-meter relay is scheduled for 3:10 p.m. followed by the men’s 4x400 relay, the last scheduled event of the day. The SCISA Challenge tourney will feature both varsity and junior varsity teams with varsity beginning at 9 a.m. on Saturday and JV following at 9:30 a.m. Wilson Hall, Clarendon Hall and Robert E. Lee will all field JV teams with Wilson Hall also participating on the varsity side.

SHS FROM PAGE B1 gave them problems all night.” Price’s gem might also act as a springboard for the Gamecocks entering region play. Sumter is 5-0 and plays its first Region VI-5A game today at Socastee in Myrtle Beach. “I think our team right now is in a pretty fair spot,” Shumake said. “We have a lot of team chemistry and we have a lot of fun out there as we work hard every day. We’re just trying to put ourselves in position to execute whatever the game calls for.” Sumter has won in a variety of ways thus far, going 3-0 in 1-run games including a 12-11 slugfest against Blythewood in the NaturChem Invitational tournament. The Gamecocks have also posted two shutouts, including Price’s no-hitter on Wednesday. “We’re putting the ball in play,” Shumake said. “I think we’re a little under six strikeouts a game and I’d like to see that even better than it is, but for the most part we’re not getting drilled with double-digit strikeouts. I like the fact that our kids are really, really working on situational hitting and manufacturing runs and doing what we need to do offensively. “If we can do that and our pitching staff can keep the ball down and we can play good defense, I think we’ll be able to win some ball games.”

FRIDAY, MARCH 10, 2017

USC FROM PAGE B1 cold storage this year. The Gamecocks are 22-9, 12-6 SEC and finished fourth in the league. They beat one of the top two teams in the league. Their RPI is 32 with a strength-of-schedule rated 37, far above last year’s totals. By Thursday’s numbers, USC was 4-5 against the Top 50 in RPI and 12-8 against the Top 100. It beat Monmouth, Michigan, Syracuse and Vermont and topped Georgia and Tennessee on the road. Bracketology considers the Gamecocks a lock, maybe as high as a 6 seed. That couldn’t

change in the span of two days, right? Yes, it can. Unlikely, impossible ... it can. So the Gamecocks are thinking of Friday and trying to get to Saturday, then trying to get to Sunday. Then, they’ll gather in Nashville or Columbia to watch the selection broadcast. Sunday’s coming. After Friday. “All of this is good, but the main focus is winning and advancing,” Thornwell said. “Only important thing that matters is taking care of business of whoever we end up playing on Friday and making it to Saturday.”
