Election Primary decides several County seats ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Given his broadcasting and public address connections to The University of Tennessee Athletics, Mike Hammond’s success in his Knox County political career could be compared to a successful Vols Football season start: 4-0. Hammond, currently serving his final term as At-Large Seat 10 representative on Knox County
Commission, won a three-candidate Republican Primary race for Criminal Court Clerk during Knox County Primary Election Tuesday, May 6. For all the rigors found in many political campaigns, “I enjoy the campaign process, that’s because I enjoy meeting people,” Hammond, three times elected to County Commission, said. He won with 58.71 percent of the vote, ahead of runner-up
Jason L. Hunnicutt (25.84 percent) and S t e v e Williams (15.45 percent). With no Democratic Primary opposition, Hammond Hammond all but officially will become the new Criminal Court
Clerk. Incumbent Joy McCroskey, amid wides p r e a d charges of critical mistakes within the Criminal Court Clerk Jones office while in charge, did not seek reelection.

At least 200 people came out to support Farragut and area artists and see their work showcased during the fourth annual Art in the Park reception, hosted by Farragut Business Alliance. The event, which took place Friday, May 9, in the Pinnacle at Turkey Creek, featured the works of 35 artists who did their works on site Saturday, April 26, in Farragut parks, greenways and all about Town. Allison Sousa, FBA executive director, said the number of participants was up by 10 from last year’s Art in the Park. “To accommodate them, we needed more space, so Pinnacle provided the space,” Sousa said. “This is our first year, so it’s very exciting,” area resident Charlotte Wright said about she and husband, Joe, attending the reception. “And, I like the way it’s laid out,” she said. “It’s easy to tell who did what.” “This is our fourth year, and we have come a long way,” Marcia Shelly, event co-chair with Robin Purvis, said. “Both of our judges — photography and painting — said the level of work for this show, the ability of the artists, is remarkable.” The winners of the Presenting Sponsor’s Choice Award went to Inna Nasonova for an oil painting, “Waiting for New Growth,” and Carol Erikson for her photograph, “At the Creek – Hackney Mill.” The winners in the art category

Pearmain for “View from the Hill;” second place, Joe Parrott for an oil painting, “Bridgemore Bridge,” and third place, Mike C. Berry for a pastel, “18th Green at Fox Den Country Club.” “Oh, I’m thrilled,” Miller said about winning Best of
Show. “They put on a wonderful event, great venues and wonderful folks. It was a lot of fun, and it’s fun to see how everyone interprets an area.” The winners of the photography category were: Best of Show, David Foy for “Timeworn Peacefulness;” first place, Brad Bittle for “Foggy Concord;” second place, Stephanie Cobb for
“Monarch,” and third place, Ambler Brown for “Old Concord by the Bay.” “Well, I was pleased and surprised,” Foy said about wining Best of Show in photography. “I enjoyed the weekend so much, the activities of the Art in the Park. [Farragut Business Alliance] took good care of everyone, and it was a lot of fun. It was very well run.”

With Farragut Alderman Ron Honken “jump-starting the topic” of town of Farragut recognizing and awarding top teachers, according to Mark Littleton, Farragut Schools Education Relations Committee voted to present the idea to Board of Mayor and Alderman. Seeking to recognize two teachers in each of the five schools for which the Town annually gives $110,000 ($22,000 each to the four Farragut public schools and Hardin Valley Academy), SERC voted unanimously to recommend $10,000 ($1,000 per teacher) be set aside to reward 10 teachers during the committee’s Tuesday, May 6 meeting in Town Hall. Criteria for earning the recognition and reward was not voted upon. With Honken having previously met with SERC, “The inference from what he said would be that if we were to develop a rational reason for wanting to do that, then the Town might get behind the idea,” Littleton, SERC chairman, said. Saying he was “just throwing See SERC on Page 4A
Noted author, négociant Mayes to launch at Seasons ■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
New York Times best selling author Frances Mayes will be the toast of Farragut at a wine tasting presented by Farragut Wine & Spirits at Seasons Café Thursday, May 22. “Childhood is primal material for any writer, and the family I came from continues to be a mystery to me, a mystery I want-
ed to explore from the point of view of the child I was,” Mayes, author of “Under the Tuscan Sun,” said about the inspiration for her new book, “Under Magnolia: A Southern Memoir.” “The South has produced the most great writers of every region and like them, I am inspired by the strong, mythic landscape, the troubled history, and the long sense of history,” Mayes added. “I also love it that
the South embraces its eccentrics.” Food, wine and books bring Mayes to Town for a dinner at 6:45 p.m., in Seasons Café off Parkside Drive in Turkey Creek to feature her new book and launch her wines in Farragut with a wine tastings. “My Tuscan Sun Wines are just coming out in Tennessee right now, so I’ll be there to celebrate that,” Mayes said.
“I’ll happily sign my new memoir, “Under Magnolia,” my cookbook, ‘The Tuscan Sun Cookbook,’ and any old sauce-stained copies of my other Tuscan books,” Mayes said. The author’s interest in making wine began in California. “I lived forever in California, near the wine country,” she said.
“You can’t help but become enchanted.” When she moved to Italy, she had gotten to know many winemakers, she said. Mayes said their house and land in Tuscany had been See TUSCAN on Page 2A

abandoned for 30 years so they did not immediately know they had vineyards. Ever since moving to Italy she wanted to make wine. “My husband, Ed, and I made wine from our grapes at our house in Tuscany,” she said. “It was much anticipated by us and all our neighbors because we’d worked hard to bring back the vines after their years of neglect. “Well, it was the worst wine ever made,” she added. “We decided to leave it to the experts.” Mayes said their friend, Danny Keefe of Curious Cork Imports who also lives part time in Cortona, and they decided one night over dinner to develop a line of Italian wines by working with favorite vineyards. “So we tasted over a hundred wines and selected six to bring home under the Tuscan Sun name,” she said. “All the wines are named for aspects of my books, and the labels also connect to things I’ve always adored about life in Italy.” At Bramasole now, the couple grow six varieties of table grapes. “Our own wine production is a distant dream,” she said.

lier. “In another life I would like to study wines from around the world, French pasty and Asian cuisines,” she said. “For now, I’m happy with Italy.” Mayes said she does not have a favorite wine. “The Tondo Tondo in our line is our house wine,” she said. “I am a fan of Amarone and of the big Brunellos and of the completely Tuscan Sangioveses such as our Auguri.” After years of living in Tuscany, the author returned to the South. “In the opening of my memoir, I describe how I was suddenly,
out of the blue, struck with the wild notion of moving back to the South after my whole grownup career in San Francisco,” she said. “I’d have to invent reasons, but really it was just one of those crazy, important lightning

Value of the loss is about $700. • May 5: A Bridgeport Drive man reported to police sometime during the night an unknown suspect entered his vehicle and took a Taurus handgun and $500 in Target gift cards. Complainant stated he thinks he left the vehicle unlocked. Total loss was about $800. • May 4: Police were advised by an Oran Road resident her property had been vandalized. Complainant told police she initially thought someone
was trying to break into her residence, but only a small window had been broken out of her front door. No entry was made into the residence. Complainant stated she thinks someone had possibly thrown a rock at the window causing it to break. • May 3: A Lorena Lane woman reported to police her wallet and cellphone went missing while she was shopping at Off Broadway off Parkside Drive in Farragut. Complainant stated she was walking around the store with her wallet and cellphone in the front of the cart. While still in the store, she noticed the items had gone missing. Estimated loss is about $250.

keeps expanding.” Although the couple has a vegetable garden at their Hillsborough home, what she mainly grows is roses, mostly old varieties, she said. “We have about 30 acres — six of cultivated gardens,” Mayes said. Adding, “no vineyards here.”

presstalk@farragutpress.com least partial credit for, is sliced bread and indoor plumbing. If we should have, like, let’s say, for instance, some attractive outbuildings in Farragut, will there be “See Rock City” signs painted on the side? (You have to be [my] age to appreciate that question). The next time I need a new pair of knickers I think I’ll shoplift them from Kohl’s [department store in Farragut]. I’m sure nobody will notice. Why is anyone surprised when their laptop and/or puse is stolen from the front seat of an unlocked car parked on the street? Meanwhile, the owner is taking a short nap or watching a rerun of a rerun of Gilligan’s Island. As we use to say in downtown Concord, if you snooze, you lose. Maybe that’s why we have a lake in the middle of our former town. • Editorial freedom is a wonderful concept, but it does come with its responsibilities. With that in mind, the farragutpress has developed policies that will be followed regarding the publication of presstalk comments: • Libelous comments will not be published. • Malicious comments will not be published. • Comments will remain anonymous. • Recorded comments will be limited to 30 seconds. • Written comments should be limited to about 100 words. • Names of individuals or businesses mentioned in the call may not be published (including public figures and officials) depending on the issue. • Comments mentioning names of public figures, not issue related, will be published as a “Letter to the Editor” and must be signed. • farragutpress reserves the right not to publish any comment for any reason. • Because of space limitations, not every comment will be published. Also, portions of the 30-second message and written comments with more than 100 words may be omitted, but the basic message of the call or email will remain intact. • Vulgar language will not be printed. That’s it. The forum is open.
• Semantics. Let’s distinguish between being politically correct and being honest. Reaction (in the News Sentinel) to the Farragut High School cancellation of the political Islam program used the word “Islamophobia.” “Phobia” implies a diagnosable weakness. Don’t be fooled. When a victim remembers a crime committed against him, it is only honest remembrance. To be cautious is to be wise. Are we expected to forget maiming, killing and plane stealing? Reasonable factual dialogue should exist in schools and other places. Taxpayers should have access to the schools they build and maintain. If the school becomes a target after such a potentially “offending” dialogue, then the fears of political Islam are validated. In the [United States] freedom of speech means that people must occasionally handle an offense taken in a responsible manner. • I just don’t get these local politics! First, I read in the farragutpress that Alderman Bob Markli is a “custom home builder” in Farragut. Then I read in the same paper that Mr. Markli was “dumbfounded and awed” when his proposed ordinance to allow multifamily dwellings be built on individual residential lots in Farragut does not pass. Isn’t there a clear “conflict of interest” here? • How long does it take? Can anybody remember when the Old Stage Road/Watt Road project actually started? [I am] getting along in years and [my] memory is not quite as sharp as it used to be — but it seems like the time it is taking to widen the 300, or so, feet of Old Stage Road with hardly any traffic is longer than a CVS receipt. And that is a l-o-n-g receipt/time. Can hardly wait for the widening of Concord Road to start. This will be a major project with lots of angry commuters buzzing all around. The next basketball coach at [The University of Tennessee] will probably be fired before this thing is complete (or maybe before it is even started). Are you kidding me?

To the young man who puked at 3:15 p.m., yesterday, this past Sunday [May 4] at Mellow Mushroom, your timing could not have been better for a “South Park” episode. I figured meeting a business VIP traveling from Ohio to Atlanta in the middle of a Sunday afternoon at Mellow Mushroom would be a good and safe venue for me to conduct business and kick off the conversation with some small talk in giving an overview of the town of
Farragut. Right on queue of me stating that Farragut was a wonderful place to live, you puked all over the place and it had nothing to do with the food since you just sat down with your other “drunk” buddies. Do not get me wrong, as a fraternity man myself “I get it” and having those high tolerance skills you are working on may actually save your life one day in many Eastern-Block countries as I personally have witnessed in
my travels. However, since I did not have the opportunity to personally talk to you or throw you out the window at Mellow Mushroom myself because your friends immediately yanked you out of there, … “dude” please have the courtesy next time to take care of your “business” elsewhere prior to interrupting my business meeting.
Election
Hawkins had 15.05. Shouse, however, does face Democratic opposition in the Aug. 7 K n o x General Election. J a m e s Berrier was the only Democrat Shouse running for Trustee. Republicans assured of reelection due to no opposition from any party include Mayor Tim Burchett. Bob Thomas was unopposed in the Republican Primary for Commission At-Large Seat 10. Completing his first-ever run for
political office, Thomas faces no Democratic opposition. As for Hammond’s post-election reflections, “Am I glad it’s over? Yes, because now we know the future of the Berrier office,” he said. As for how long Hammond will need for changes, which he promised during his campaign, to bear fruit, “I think they’re going to see some immediate,” he said.
be nice if they could do that without pushing too hard on it.” Farragut Education Foundation committee selects five awardees ($1,000 each) from among a pool suggested by an eight-person committee (based on a points system), which is comprised of two Foundation representatives, two Farragut parents, two FHS students and two members “of the community,” Wentz said. “I think at this point the teachers would appreciate money,” Wentz added. Littleton also suggested there might be “other ways” beyond money the Town could recognize and reward teachers. Wentz also emphasized about the urgency of getting the proposal before BOMA before the 2014-15 fiscal year budget is finalized: “It’s got to be now.” Gary Palmer, assistant Town administrator, added, “We’re in the last stages of that budget
cycle.” In other business, SERC: • SERC agreed “by acclamation … to request the Town give more [space] to the schools in Farragut Annual Report magazine,” Littleton said. • Singletary suggested encouraging PTA members at the five schools to visit a SERC meeting and share their “thinking about the schools and what are doing to raise money, how are you doing it and is there anything we need to help with and convey information about?” Wentz suggested that SERC members “could go to one of their meetings and tell them what our committee does.” No vote was taken concerning PTA.

In his first-ever bid for public office, Ed Brantley has an unobstructed path to Ed Shouse’s soon-to-be vacated Commission Seat 11 after beating Michele Carringer 57.50 versus 42.50 percent in the GOP Primary (no Democratic Primary candidates).

out ideas,” Littleton said the recognition and reward could serve as a vehicle “to try and entice the teachers to stay here.” Though eventually voting in favor of the recognition, SERC member Mike Singletary said before the vote, “It would be real nice to do, but I’m a little reluctant to ask the Town to do that. I feel like we’ve already pushed on the amount of money we’re giving to the teachers. … I’m saying we don’t want to get out on a limb for it.” SERC member Nancy Wentz then said, “I kind of disagree on that one. I know Farragut is not in the school business, but believe me, most of the people who have kids in school come to this area because of the schools.” Singletary added, “I think we could find some wording to pass it along to [BOMA], that it would

Ads’ 14th state trip in 16 years close Dawgs’ season cut short at Powell
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
For all of its offensive fireworks in winning the District 4AAA Tournament championship in blowout fashion, Farragut proved it could still turn up the heat after a slow start Monday evening. Karns staff ace Aaron Clark held the Admirals scoreless for 3 2/3 innAdmirals 7 i n g s before Beavers 0 s o m e clutch two-out hitting in the fourth inning, and one huge error, opened the floodgates at FHS’s John Heatherly Field May 12. Behind Admirals staff ace Patrick Raby, who pitched a onehit shutout, Farragut blanked the Beavers 7-0 in a win-or-go-home Region 2-AAA semifinal. Clark “was hitting his spots, but second time through we started hitting him,” junior John Painter, FHS rightfielder with two singles and three RBI, said after the Admirals improved to 28-12 overall. Karns, District 3-AAA Tournament runner-up, ends its season 21-16. One win from the program’s 14th TSSAA Class AAA State Tournament appearance in the
last 16 years (seven state titles, four runner-up finishes), Farragut hosted Powell, which ended Bearden’s season with a 54 home win Monday, in the region title game Wednesday, May 14 (after deadline). Both teams are assured of a substate berth Friday, with Wednesday’s winner hosting the Region 1-AAA runner-up and the loser headed northeast of Knox County to play that region’s champion. Sam Schulze’s bloop single to left field scored Duncan Pence, who had doubled to deep centerfield, making it 1-0 Ads in the fourth. After a throwing error on Cole Morgan’s bunt scored another run, Painter’s two-RBI single to right field made it 4-0. “It was a fastball up, he left it up with two strikes,” Painter said. “Duncan got us started with that double after they walked Chase [Chambers],” FHS head coach Matt Buckner said. “John got a big two-out hit.” With Raby sailing along despite allowing two walks and another baserunner on his throwing error in the third inning, the Admirals broke it open in the sixth. Singles by Nico Mascia and Schulze preceded Morgan’s successful sacrifice bunt.

rematch with Hardin Valley Academy, tourney top seed, following Admirals 2 Farragut's 4-2 Hawks 1 district semifinal win against Maryville two days before. A pair of seniors made the big play late. Tyler Klarner's header of a Ryan Coughenour corner kick, breaking a 1-1 tie in the 78th minute, was the winning goal in 21 victory against the Hawks at
HVA Friday evening, May 9. “That's a play we work on all the time,” Culbreth said about Klarner’s header, as nationally ranked FHS improved to 19-2-0. The Hawks, regular season cochamps with Farragut, fell to 143-1. The win avenged the Admirals' 4-3 regular season loss to Hardin Valley April 28, also at HVA. “It was a great game.

CORRYTON — Farragut High School’s softball team saw its 2014 season end in dramatic and heartbreaking fashion Monday night, May 12. The Lady Admirals made a couple of comebacks before falling to Gibbs High School 6-5 in a Region 2-AAA Semifinal game before a packed house at Gibbs. “We’re the comeback kids,” said FHS senior designated player Hannah Leavell. “We fought hard and I’m proud of the way we played and I’m proud of the way we fought.” The Lady Admirals (29-13) erased deficits of 2-0 and 5-4 before The Lady Eagles (44-4) won the game in the bottom of the seventh inning on a walk-off single by left fielder Lexi Needham. Needham’s game-winning hit plated Kaitlin Trent, from second base, with the run that ended the Lady Admirals’ season. Trent drew a walk to lead off the inning and advanced to second when
Karri Byrd was hit by a pitch. Farragut, the District 4-AAA runner-up, didn’t get the chance because the Lady Eagles were at home. “I don’t think they wanted to see us bat again,” Leavell said. As fate would have it, the Lady Eagles Lady Eagles 6 didn’t Lady Admirals 5 have to because they took care of things before the game could go to extra innings. The Lady Admirals squandered a chance to take an early lead. FHS initiated a two-out rally in the top of the first inning. Third baseman Lexee Lamoree and Mary Claire Coyne started things with back-to-back singles. Both Lady Ads runners advanced when Shelby Miller reached on an error to load the bases. The inning ended, however, when Farragut second baseman Madison Etter laced a ball to the centerfield gap but was robbed when Lady Eagles’ outfielder Faith Lowry, a junior who was See LADY ADS on Page 8A

FHS plants 25 on Bearden to grab 4-AAA crown ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
A first inning lasting one hour featured 19 runs, 13 of which were scored by Farragut. “It was wild. It felt really great, too,” Chase Fullington, FHS junior third baseman, said after his four-hit, three-RBI game, including two singles in that 13-run Admirals first inning where Farragut sent 19 batters to the plate in the District 4-AAA Tournament championship round versus Bearden. A nineAdmirals 25 run top of Bulldogs 10 the fifth inning quelled a Bulldogs rally that cut the FHS lead to 15-10. Farragut won the district crown with a 25run outburst, 25-10, Wednesday, May 7, at Hardin Valley Academy. “Our bats have been going the whole district tournament,” Fullington added about the Admirals scoring 61 runs in four tourney games. “We’ve really started coming together as a team.” Nico Mascia and John Painter also had two first-inning hits, with Mascia’s including a basesclearing three-RBI double. Mascia added a fifth-inning RBI double.
Duncan Pence smacked three hits, including a solo home run and double for Farragut. Cole Morgan, Roy Mutta and Gabe Waldrop each added a pair of singles. Admirals senior first baseman Chase Chambers, named District 4-AAA Offensive Player of the Year, had a double and single. Chambers said he was “really proud of these guys. We had a tough couple of weeks early in the season. But every day we made steps forward. “In this past week I think that we’ve made leaps and bounds forward. … Our bats are exploding,” Chambers added. Matt Buckner, FHS head coach, said about his offense, “We’ve swung it good top to bottom.” Carson Strickland connected for a two-RBI double off the bench for Farragut. With Bearden having survived the tourney’s loser’s bracket to reach Region 2-AAA semifinals thanks to win-or-go-home victories versus Maryville (3-1) William Blount (6-0) and Hardin Valley (4-3), Bulldogs head coach John Rice said it was “house money” for his team versus Farragut. “There’s nothing we could have lost today except our dignity, and

I think we showed very significantly that we’re prideful and ready to compete out there,” he added. Connor Cameron belted a solo home run and added a two-RBI single. Andy Beam also homered along with an RBI single. David Beam smacked a pair of doubles plus a single. Bryson Ford singled twice. Labeling Bearden’s comeback
as “awesome,” Rice added that his team “fought and fought and fought” but Farragut “had more gas left that we did.” About Bearden’s comeback to 15-10, Buckner said, “Anytime you take a big lead like that [130] you have a tendency to lose focus. I tried to warn them, I was on them right when they went out” in the bottom of the first. “We lost total focus, and they’re
a good-hitting team,” Buckner added. Staff ace Patrick Raby closed out the Bulldogs in order in the bottom of the sixth. “I wasn’t going to let it get close,” Buckner said about using Raby, who still got his four-days rest before starting against Karns Monday, May 12, in region semifinal action. “I planned on him throwing an inning [versus Bearden] anyway.”
FHS-Karns
to end the game. Raby said he was “ready to finish it,” but added Buckner’s decision “makes sense, to save my arm for Friday.” Rating his performance, Raby said, “I felt good. My arm felt good. Still trying to work on my curveball a little bit.” Buckner said Clark “did a good job keeping us off balance” in the early innings, limiting Farragut to one hit in the first three innings. About overcoming a slow start Monday, “We’ve played a lot of baseball games a lot of different ways,” Buckner said. “This Monday region semifinal is always a really tough game. I’ve never been involved in one that wasn’t a tough game.” Matt Hurley, Karns head coach, said FHS is “a great hitting ball team,” crediting Clark for “competing and working his tail off.”

Raby, a junior, struck out six and allowed three walks in 6 2/3 innings. “He’s tough,” Buckner said, adding that Raby is “getting ready for Friday” and the Admirals’ substate game. Raby would be working on three days rest. With Raby throwing 111 pitches Monday, “Probably a few too many, but it is what it is,” Buckner said. “I didn’t want him to go any further on the pitch count.” Bo Baker, senior pitcher, relieved Raby with two out in the seventh and induced a groundout

Joe Michalski simply tipped his blue Hardin Valley Academy hat to the District 4-AAA opponent, Bearden, that ended his team’s stellar 2014 season. “They really played one of the best games I’ve ever seen,” Michalski, named district Coach of the Year, said of Bearden’s 4-3 loser’s bracket elimination game victory in the district tournament Tu e s d a y Bulldogs 4 evening, May 6, at Hawks 3 HVA. “We fought, we made a rally but we came up short.” Regular season District 4-AAA champions and tourney No. 1 seed, the Hawks end 2014 with a 26-7 record. No. 2 seed Bearden, finishing second to Farragut, ended its season 26-15 after a Region 2-AAA loss to Powell. Hawks losing pitcher Will Neely, a Tennessee Volunteers commitment named 4-AAA Pitcher of the Year, said Bearden “came ready to play and I thought we did, too. A lot of things didn’t go our way. Hitting balls hard right at them.” Neely, a junior, went the distance, allowing just two earned runs, nine hits and two walks while striking out nine. Bulldog catcher Brock Vaughn led his team with three hits,
including a double in the sixth inning when he scored the eventual winning run. As for his performance, Neely said, “I thought I did better than I did the first time I pitched against them (HVA 12-9 home win April 22). Winning pitcher Brady Duncan allowed three earned runs and eight hits during his 5.1 innings of work as Bearden led 4-0 going to the bottom of the sixth. Duncan struck out three and walked two. Hardin Valley’s three-run rally was highlighted by Tyler Thompson’s two-RBI double, scoring Dylan Harris and Sully Smoak who each singled. Thompson scored on Vinny Gambuzza’s RBI double. Bearden reliever Hunter Henry retired all five batters he faced.” “They came out hitting the ball good, but Neely pitched a great game,” Thompson, sophomore pitcher/first baseman/ right fielder, said. “We battled back in the sixth inning. Before that we didn’t have many hits. We didn’t back up Will that much. “But in the sixth inning we got rolling a little bit.” Michalski said Wednesday, May 7, was “day one of getting it right next year.” Senior Lane Thomas, Bearden star centerfielder/pitcher, was named 4-AAA Most Valuable Player for the 2014 season.

named District 3-AAA Tournament Most Valuable Player, robbed Etter with a diving catch. “The difference in the game might’ve been the first inning when we left the bases loaded,” Farragut head coach David Moore said. “We hit the ball into the gap and they make a great play. “That might’ve scored three runs for us.” As if the missed opportunity wasn’t enough, things got even tougher for the Lady Admirals after the second inning —thanks to a freak accident. While Gibbs was warming up prior to the inning, Lady Eagles’ shortstop Leah Sohm threw an errant warm-up toss over first baseman Kaitlin Beeler’s head and plunked Farragut catcher and leadoff hitter Hannah Stevenson in the head. Stevenson didn’t return to the game as she suffered concussion-like symptoms. “She wanted to get back into the game but when the trainer says that you have concussionlike symptoms, our hands are tied,” Moore said. “Her health and safety is the important thing.” Gibbs, which moved up to Class AAA this season, broke the scoreless tie in the bottom of the second. Third baseman Cheyenne Boles led off the frame with an infield hit that took a bad hop and skipped Etter’s glove. Boles advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by Needham. The Lady Eagles took a 1-0 lead when Boles scored on a triple by Beeler. Beeler came home with the game’s second run when Anna Mershon singled. Farragut responded in a big way when it scored four runs in the third. Lexee Lamoree started things with a double. Coyne walked before the Lady Ads got four consecutive RBI singles (with two outs) by Etter, Leavell, pitcher Emily Smith and Niki Slone. “We knew that we had to answer because we knew that this was [an elimination game],” Farragut senior center fielder

pitchers in the league, so give her the credit,” HVA head coach Whitney Cruze said about Ogle. “We put the ball in play a lot. We didn’t have a lot of strikeouts. Their defense was very solid behind her.” However, “Kaleigh pitched just as good,” Cruze added. An AllDistrict tournament honoree, Wynne struck out 11 Lady Red Rebels while allowing just one earned run, four hits Kaleigh Wynne. and one walk. “Defensively we made a couple of errors that hurt us.” Leslie Beecham, Lady Hawks sophomore shortstop, also earned All-district honors.

Avery Blankenburg said. “We went up 4-2 and we just kept hanging around.” Gibbs had a big inning of its own in the bottom of the frame. The Lady Eagles took a 5-4 lead on Boles’ two-run triple and an RBI double by Needham. The Lady Ads knotted things in the top of the sixth. Slone opened the inning with a single. Sarah Jackson singled and Slone scored when Lamoree reached on an error. Gibbs pitcher Abby Hicks retired Farragut in order in the seventh before the Lady Eagles scored the winning run. Leavell, Blankenburg and Jackson, back-up first baseman, are Farragut’s three seniors who dressed for their final Lady Admirals game Monday.

both teams played well,” HVA head coach Mike McLean said. Fletcher Eckern scored Farragut's first goal midway into the first half after taking a long lead pass from Alex Schupp. However, “We missed some great opportunities in the beginning that would have just put them right out of it. ... But we stilled controlled the game,” Culbreth said. Farragut ended with a 14-8 edge in shots-on-goal. Surviving a district semifinal scare against Bearden before winning 2-1, the Hawks answered, tying the game 1-1 in the 44th minute. A nifty sharp angle shot by junior Logan Kington from
about eight yards out across the face of the goal and into the right side of the net, began with junior Cameron Schneider's throw-in. Kington “played great. And I thought our defense played pretty good,” McLean said. T h e Admirals 4 Admirals advanced Red Rebels 2 to a winor-go-home Region 2-AAA semifinal Tuesday, May 13 (after deadline), hosting District 3-AAA runner-up Gibbs at Farragut Intermediate School field.

Substate play for Farragut and HVA, if surviving Tuesday, is expected to begin during late morning Saturday, May 17. Against Maryville, first-half goals from Marvin Mendy and Schupp put FHS up 2-0 at halftime. After the Red Rebels (13-70 final record) scored, senior forward Konner McCarley took a long pass from Ethan Snow and, outbattling two defenders, made it 3-1 from about 12 yards out with 20:01 left. “They were both all over me,” McCarley said. “Our offense did a great job tonight.” A beautiful display of ball control from forward Dami Omitaomu salted the game away. Weaving through a handful of defenders, Omitaomu scored from eight yards out with 6:30 to play.

Bearden High School’s sport rivalry with Farragut has come a long way since Phil “Scrap Iron” Garner’s playing days as a Bulldogs infield star, when FHS students were tagged “Farmers.” Garner, Bulldogs baseball legend (Class of 1967) for his high school, college and Major League Baseball career and
namesake of Phil Garner Ballpark, said his father warned him, in the 1960s, of a sleeping giant. “He [Drew Garner] said in a few years, Farragut will be the center of the population out here,” said Garner, on hand for a re-dedication ceremony of newly renovated Phil Garner Ballpark — which includes a bust of Garner displayed near the park’s entrance —

involved in the renovation. Garner later said about the park named in his honor, “There were a lot of Minor League fields when I got into [development] that weren’t as good as this. This is really nice, so it’s quite an honor for me.” During the ceremony, Garner also thanked his dad “for instilling in me that if you do a job, do it right. I think that helped me in my career.”

Saying he started playing chess before he started school, learning the game by playing online by himself, Jason Fu led his Farragut High School chess team to an impressive state finish earlier this month. Farragut finished second statewide behind Shannon Homeschool among a roughly 16team field at Tennessee Tech in Cookeville earlier this spring. Fu, a junior who is the team’s top player points-wise (first chair), said about his team’s No. 2 finish, “It was a lot better than I expected because there’s a lot of really tough teams out there.” Sophomore Kevin Chen is second chair, senior Charles Blue third chair and freshman Abe Joo fourth chair.

WORKING JOE:
Perkins molds strong relationships at WCGC Willow Creek Golf Club head pro combines love of golf with people skills
■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
Scott Perkins wears a faded yellow bracelet, made of rubber, around his left wrist the same as he does his wedding band: it never comes off. The bracelet is a cherished reminder of the precious relationship between fathers and daughters inspired by his friendship with Gary Christian, which ties in to Perkins’ role as head golf pro at Willow Creek Golf Club. The pair work together annually to host The Shannon Christian Memorial Golf Tournament each June at WCGC. It’s a fundraising tribute to the memory of murder victims Shannon Christian and Christopher Newsom. “A lot of what I do is dealing with people and relationships,” said Perkins, emphasizing the two keys to success in his profession are a love of golf and a knack for working with people. Head pro at Willow Creek since March 2004 when hired by general manager Bill Roach, Perkins puts those skills to the test on a daily basis. He’s directly respon-

At the tournament, “I learned that you don’t underestimate people … I underestimated someone who [should have been] easier, but I lost to him,” Joo, 15, said. “I won some that were really hard.” Building your chess “rating level” by also playing individual non-school-affiliated area and regional tournaments during the year is what all four boys said they do. One of the biggest state tournaments for all ages, Chen said, is annual Tennessee Open, which is set for July this year in Nashville. Three of the four played in an international tournament as middle schoolers — within their own skill level — held only once every
sible for all Willow Creek golf operations including the kitchen/beverage staff — except golf course and cart mechanical maintenance. “I have relationships with vendors, I have relationships with tournaments … I have a different relationship with every tournament. I do things differently with the Philip Fulmer event [Friday, May 16] than I might do with Sertoma Club. I do an ORNL [this week], which is a credit union, it’s a little different than a charity function.” “We’ve had a lot of [PGA] Tour players that have played here. … Any time a celebrity comes for the Fulmer tournament or anything like that, I always meet them all,” he said. That would include famed rocker Alice Cooper. “He’s a good Alan Sloan golfer, he enjoys it, and he’s a nice guy,” Perkins said. “He was Scott Perkins, head pro at Willow Creek Golf Club, right, hands a sleeve of golf balls to Don very cool. … He was shorter than Evans, WCGC ranger, in the clubhouse. I thought he’d be.” Perkins estimated he averages thing, “Stay level-headed, don’t Cutting his teeth as an assisOne school’s thank you note to Perkins included that it raised “about five hours a week” giving overreact,” Perkins said. “And try tant pro at Landmark at Avalon “more than $26,000.” A handful golf lessons. “And part of my jobs to get everyone here to do the “for three years,” Perkins said his same thing,” Perkins added pre-golf retail manager days did of churches also sent thank-you is doing clinics,” he added.

There were seven games, and it was a two-day tournament.” Chen said he started playing chess as a student “at Farragut Middle School.” Then came “a breakthrough moment” for Chen’s chess career, as a seventh-grader, during a tournament at Alcoa High School. “I did really well, and I gained about 400 points in that tournament,” Chen said. “I went from 700 to 1,100, and that’s when I started to understand chess a lot better.” Blue, a senior who has committed to The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, said he’s “stimulated” by the competitive nature of chess. Blue also said the game “keeps you sharp” mentally. “You have to think things through.” To earn their trip to Cookeville,
the foursome went 4-0 as a team during a regional qualifier at Episcopal School of Knoxville earlier this year. Victims included Webb School of Knoxville, Chen said. “They’re

All the guys out here are pretty good guys, they’re willing to chip in and help a fellow racer out,” Mathis said. Guillian barre syndrome “is a virus that you catch that affects one in every 100,000 to 150,000 people,” Justin said. “It attacks the outer lining of your nervous system, which, in turn, basically paralyzes you without being paralyzed the rest of your life. You’re basically trapped in your own body. She was diagnosed Jan. 28. “She had an upper respiratory infection about three weeks before this started,” Justin added about one warning sign of the disease. “She took over-the-counter medicine and it went away.” What followed was a numb left leg causing Melanie to “fall out of bed” one morning, Justin said. An emergency room visit didn’t uncover anything, he added. “She still couldn’t put any weight on [her leg].” About 3 a.m. the next morning, “She woke me up crying because she couldn’t move anything,” Justin said. “From her neck down she was basically dead weight. “She’s been at Fort Sanders down [near The University of Tennessee] campus since Jan. 28,” he added. “She’s been in Patricia Neal [Rehabilitation Center]” since around early March. To recover use of her body, “Best case scenario is six to seven months. Worse case scenario is a year-and-a-half to two years to get back to her normal self,” Justin said about therapy and regeneration of the affected nerves. “We’ve got a 17-month-old little girl and it’s hard on her for us not to be a family so to speak as of right now,” Justin added.
donor, with principal Dr. John Bartlett; Morgan Shinlever, athletic director/football head coach and baseball head coach John Rice. With Bearden players and coaches lined up just behind the mound during the ceremony, BHS player Dalton Kizer read Garner’s biography. “… As a senior, Phil lead the baseball Bulldogs to their regional championship,” Kizer announced. As an infielder at The University of Tennessee in 1970, Garner “led the Southeastern Conference in home runs and was named to the SEC All-first
team,” Kizer also announced. Drafted by the Oakland A’s in 1971, Garner’s 16-year Major League Baseball playing career was highlighted by three AllStar Game appearances (1976, ’80 and ’81) and going 12-for-24 at the plate — a World Series record — to help Pittsburgh beat Baltimore 4-games-to-3 and win the 1979 World Series. Addressing the Bearden players, Garner said a professional baseball career “is a wonderful life, a great choice to make.” A 16-year managerial career soon followed, highlighted by Garner leading the 2005 Houston Astros to the National League pennant and a World Series berth versus the Chicago White Sox.

Mother nature knows best We live 30 miles from Mt. St. Helens in the state of Washington. On May 18, 1980 she erupted. Before the momentous event, she looked just like a gigantic, y u m m y scoop of vanilla ice cream. Then she blew her top and ever since has looked like some Pam e n o r m o u s Young g i a n t Make it slashed the scoop in Fun! half with a colossal machete. She’s not as pretty as she used to be, but at least she no longer subliminally suggests ice cream to me. (I know since her eruption, my consumption of ice cream cones has gone way down.) Yesterday, we north westerners were buzzing with memories of her eruption. My sister and I were in Los Angeles that Sunday after being on Regis Philbin’s television show called AM Los Angeles on the Friday before. I remember talking with Regis about the eminent possibility of our mountain erupting. She’d gone into labor on March 27 and was shaking and spewing steam almost every day. (Oh to be in labor for 22 days!) It was kind of scary living so close to her and as the earthquakes became more frequent and roadblocks were set up along the perimeter of the “red zone,” we watched, waited
deathnotices birthnotices
and wondered what would happen when she blew. 57 people were killed and some of the hairraising stories of those who escaped that Sunday morning filled our morning newspaper yesterday. Nature is a great teacher and one of the lessons I’ve learned over and over again is that Mother Nature knows what she’s doing. Mt. St. Helens has taught me that all things heal in time and Mother Nature knows more than we do. One example was Spirit Lake. The lake was at the foot of Mt. St. Helens and as a Girl Scout I camped with my troop in the park many times. The lake was so clear; we could see fish swimming deep in the water. After the mountain blew, the lake seemed to disappear; filled with molten lava the consistency of fresh cement. I remember the Forest Service thought the lake was gone along with all the wildlife and our local paper was regularly filled with articles about the devastation of the fish population. Well, guess what! Without the help of our U.S. Forest Service, the lake just moved to a different spot and the fish and wildlife came back on their own. We tend to think we can outsmart Mother Nature. Hah! When we realized we were going through twice as much birdseed as we did last spring, we knew it was because of the squirrels. We bought squirrel proof birdfeeders. The theory is the squirrel gets on the feeder and when he/she steps on the perch his weight shuts off the door to the seeds, whereas birds don’t weigh
enough to shut it. In one day this mother squirrel figured out if she stuck her arm into the open door before she put weight of the perch, her arm kept the door open enough for her other hand to reach in and pull out one seed at a time. Yesterday we decided to go to the feed store and buy a squirrel feeder and quit fighting them. There was quite a selection, but we chose one along with a 50 pound sack of pumpkin seeds and a 30 pound bag of peanuts. I’ll just have to wait and see if they will now stay away from the bird’s seed or just get fat and call all their friends in neighboring counties to join the feast. Just one more note: I have a photo Terry took yesterday morning that shows how wrong I was thinking the deer were eating my tulips. I’m including it in case your editor can publish it. In case it doesn’t accompany this column, it’s a photo of a slug (approximately 10 ounces) who climbed up the 12” stem of one of my tulips and ate away half the flower. His weight caused the tulip to sway with the slightest breeze. While I watched, I thought of Cirque du Soleil and it made me smile at Mother Nature.

You’ll find many musings, videos of Pam in the kitchen preparing delicious meals, videos on how to get organized, ways to lose weight and get your finances in order, all from a reformed SLOB’s point of view.

Diamond Baseball growing, moving east ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
More than five years after Jeff Senzel’s dream of a baseball academy in Farragut was realized, with the help of a likeminded 22-year SEC coach and former Ole Miss star shortstop, Diamond Baseball Simcox Academy is moving. But there’s no worries about leaving Farragut youth behind upon moving out of its 10,000 square feet current location at 144 West End Ave., according to Senzel, co-owner. Scores of Farragut parents will allow their children and teenagers to follow the academy to its new facility, 25,000 square feet on a two-and-a-half-acre lot, off Center Park Drive near Pellissippi Parkway and Kingston Pike, Senzel said. Made possible in coordination with new co-owner Tony Holland, the new facility will feature “a baseball diamond inside the facility that we’ll be able to play some games there in the winter,” Senzel said. “We’ll have 10 or 12 cages instead of the five that we have now. And there’ll be retail space that’s going to be up front, the part of the building we’re going to offer for rent.” Construction, which started with grading in mid-April, is expected to be completed for a “late September” opening according to Senzel. Senzel said it was “about three years ago” when he started noticing, “We’re starting to get so full I’m having to turn people away” because the facili-

Jeff Senzel, Diamond Baseball Simcox Academy founder and co-owner, left, stands outside his business alongside his son, Nick Senzel, Tennessee Volunteers Baseball freshman (FHS Class of 2013). Larry Simcox, lead hitting/fielding coordinator and instructor, stands beside his son, UT sophomore shortstop A.J. Simcox (FHS Class of 2012).
ty wasn’t big enough to accommodate more young baseball players. Then the next year we had to turn even more people away. “Lessons-wise per week we probably have 300 kids running through here,” Senzel added about the mostly 6-through-18 age range during peak periods. The academy opened in January 2009 with Larry Simcox,
a UM Rebels All-SEC shortstop in 1981 and ex-Tennessee Volunteers coach for 17 seasons (1991 thru 2007), as hitting/fielding coordinator and instructor. More than five years later, a board inside the facility lists “over 70 kids that have signed Division I [baseball] scholarships” who have received DBSA instruction, Senzel said.

That includes Senzel’s son, Nick Senzel, a star infielder at Farragut High School (Class of 2013) who is serving as designated hitter, in the clean-up spot, as a UT freshman. In also includes Simcox’s son, A.J. Simcox, an All-state FHS shortstop (Class of 2012) who is UT’s starting shortstop (sophomore). “Probably 95 percent of those kids have played on our Diamond
summer [league] teams,” Simcox said of the academy’s 23 teams (roughly 300 youth starting at age 7), the first of which started in 2009. Instructors joining Simcox include Brian Hochevar (pitching coordinator), father of Major League Baseball pitcher and former UT star Luke Hochevar. Atlee Hammaker, former San Francisco Giants All-Star pitcher in the early and mid-1980s, is a former academy pitching instructor who Senzel credited with bringing aboard Brian Hochevar. Other staff instructors are Nate Henderson (hitting/fielding), Dylan Hochevar (pitching), Jeremy Kemp (catching) and Nic Beecher (hitting). Softball instructors are Ryann Musick (hitting/pitching) and Jamie Lynn Hall (hitting). “We’ve been blessed with tremendously good instructors, which I think is the key,” Senzel said. Simcox’s camps run ages 6 through 11, “and then I have middle school camps, and then during the winter I do high school hitting camps and high school middle infield camps.” To sign up for the academy or for more information on camps, contact Senzel at 865-288-3624. Senzel said he was thinking about starting an academy in the early to mid-2000s. “We were looking over off Watt Road at those fields there,” Senzel said. “Started plans, started doing all that stuff. But then I got the opportunity to go to [England, 2006 to 2008] so I shelved that whole baseball facility thing.”
