‘Hilly’ Chamber 5k OK with Hansen, senior champs ■
ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com
A female smoked the field in the running portion of 20th Annual Farragut 5k, Fun Walk and Pet Parade presented by Farragut West Knox Chamber of Commerce. Meanwhile, a pair of senior citizens said they used this “hilly” course surrounding Mayor Bob Leonard Park, where the race concludes, as training for upcoming half marathons. Dira Hansen, 23, of West Knoxville was overall winner (18:59.17) among a field of 114 ages 7 to 80. She earned a $50 check as top female. “It was a hilly course and the weather's not too good,” Hanson said after the Saturday morning, Oct. 11 race that finished in a steady rain, but added she was anxious to run the course because of “the hills.” “Even though they’re hard it’s so good to us mentally and physically,” Hansen, who finished second overall in last year's FWKCC 5k, added. “... I'm doing 5ks for like endurance. This is probably my fifth 5k” of 2014. A former multi-even track and field athlete at Christopher Newport University in Newport News, Va., “I'm like a middle

Rain and cloudy skies did not deter Farragut and area residents from enjoying beer, brats and bands at Linderfest, formerly Octoberfest. “I’m just glad there’s no thunderstorms,” Amy Smith said. She and her friends came because friend, Tracy Sharp, wanted a turkey leg and Smith wanted the beer, Smith said. This is the third year Restaurant Linderhof owner Aaron Schmissrauter hosted the event, which took place Friday and Saturday, Oct. 10 and Oct. 11, in front of Restaurant Linderhof, 12740 Kingston Pike in Renaissance | Farragut. The festival was rebranded this year from Oktoberfest to Linderfest to feature the restaurant’s new location. I think it’s great,” Dan Greaser of Farragut said. “There’s been great music, good food and beer all night long. “[Linderfest] is a reminder of our roots,” Greaser added. “I think it’s outstanding, even with the weather,” Farragut resident Bill Johns said. “My daughter’s jumping up and down in the middle of the rain.” Johns said there is a good representation of the demographics from the area attending the

Congressional Medal of Honor duo welcomed at HVA ■ ALAN SLOAN
asloan@farragutpress.com
Let alone the students, it was Hardin Valley Academy teachers such as Trey Williams who were expressing excitement upon the visit of two Congressional Medal of Honor recipients to HVA Friday morning, Sept. 12. “It’s a wonderful experience for me and the students,” Williams, a social studies/U.S. history teacher, said about retired U.S. Army Col. Roger Donlon and retired U.S. Army Maj. James Taylor, both Medal of Honor Vietnam Veterans, who arrived via Blackhawk helicopter and entered HVA from the school’s eastern grounds through a human tunnel formed by the student body. Donlon and Taylor were among several dozens of 78 living recipients of the Medal of Honor, the nation’s highest military decoration, to visit Knox County during Congressional Medal of Honor Convention in Knoxville Sept. 10-13. During the main ceremony in HVA gymnasium, both recipients

Taylor recalled his thought process during his moments of valor: “… I asked God, ‘Give me the courage, the strength, to defeat the enemy that we’re facing, and let us all go home to our loved ones.’” Donlon said, “During the heat of battle you don’t have much time to think. You rely on your training. … I was privileged to command a small team, Special Forces Green Beret. “… We promised each other, we vowed to each other we’d never quit,” he added. “… And
that’s the way we conducted ourselves on the battlefield. … You take physical wounds, emotional wounds and you carry them for life. I lost my most senior noncommissioned officer who was a combat veteran of World War II and Korea now fighting in Vietnam. He died in my arms.” Also losing his youngest noncommissioned officer in battle, “I asked God, ‘Why them and why not me?’” Donlon said. “It was my job to continue to serve and do See HONOR on Page 5A

presstalk@farragutpress.com • We moved to Farragut from [Knoxville] four years ago for the following reasons: fantastic schools, availability of quality homes in great neighborhoods, proximity of dining and shopping options and a township board that really seemed interested in maintaining and bettering these attributes. Now, after reading about the plans to change zoning ordinances to accommodate a gigantic apartment complex just a few hundred yards from an already congested traffic intersection (and within 1 mile of our beloved primary school), it is abundantly clear that the Town Board members do not give a hoot about Farragut’s image — branding, if you will — schools and property values. I am beyond disappointed and would not be surprised if homeowners close to the “multifamily dwelling” (aka apartment complex — let’s call a spade a spade, shall we?) chose to unload their houses in anticipation of the new arrival. I also am expecting to hear soon that my neighborhood will be rezoned to another school, so that our considerable donations and volunteering/fundraising efforts for the Farragut schools will be displaced and replaced by ... (?) Please, tell us — the homeown-
ers that help to make Farragut a great place to live and raise families — how many signatures [would] you need to STOP the development of these apartments? I guarantee we will exceed whatever number you give us. Editor’s Note: The developer proposing to build an apartment complex off Grigsby Chapel Road has not, as of press time, approached the town of Farragut with any such plans. The Town cannot stop what hasn’t been submitted to it. • I saw the article about the helicopters from the reserve in training for two weeks. I know for a fact they flew right over my house every night for at least a month. Hopefully, they will pick another course the next time they decide to do training exercises. Thank you. Editor’s Note: Since McGhee Tyson Air National Guard Base is an active military base and home to the Army National Guard operating OH-58 Kiowa Warrior helicopters being used in the current Mideast war, it is not unusual to expect its helicopters to be flying overhead at all hours. It is a matter of national security and Farragut lies within 10 miles of the base.

down anything.” Looking ahead, “If I can cover the distance on the 13.1 then I think I'll train for the Knox Half Marathon next March,” she said. Larry Acuff, 76, was the oldest first-place runner in either gender, winning Male 76-80 (33:47.87). An avid runner for 34 years who said he runs “probably 30” distances races every year — including one half-marathon — “I've run this course probably three or four times. ... I like the course,” Acuff said. Preparing to run a half marathon in Oak Ridge in December, Acuff said the course's hills don't dissuade him because he “trains on hills.” Mike Toney, 35, of Karns also earned a $50 check as top male overall finisher (19:20.28). “It was somewhat hilly, but it's a good course,” Toney said.

Rating this 5k course among the five such events she's run so far in 2014, Carroll said it's among the most challenging. “It was all uphill as far as I could tell,” she added. “I was a little suspicious but I didn't realize all those hills.

Children can participate in Halloween activities and, at the same time, support the Knoxville Ronald McDonald House, she added. “The Town decided, in 2010, it wanted to partner with a charity to support Freaky Friday,” Riemann said. “Sue Beverly, Ronald McDonald House director, lives in Farragut, and it felt like the perfect choice to support this family-based charity at such a wonderful family event.” “We are absolutely thrilled to be part of this wonderful event once again,” Beverly said. “It’s the most fun we have raising money and donations for the Ronald House. “[The event is] a win-win for everyone,” she added. “What a wonderful opportunity to enjoy some family fun and to help those in need at the same time.” Riemann said children ages 12 and under and in costume are invited to “trick or treat” around the walk trail at the park.

“I was here last year,” Chris O’Brien of Farragut said. “I’m having a good time.” “The crowd’s been great,” Schmissrauter said Saturday night, Oct. 11. “We’ve been having a couple thousand to the festival. “It’s been a beautiful partly cloudy couple of days here at Renaissance | Farragut,” he said. “We’re very happy to share our restaurant with the community.” “We came just to have some good German food and to be with friends,” Tellico Village resident Norm Williams said. His wife, Linda Williams, added the festival was a reminder of their heritage. “We went last year, and we loved it,” Tom Pace of Tellico Village said. “We love Linderfest,” Pamela Kos Walker of Atlanta said. She attended the event with her sister, Pati Kos Cook, of Townsend. Among the activities during Linderfest was a brat-eating contest. The defending champion from last year, Tommy Lawhorn, repeated as champion and once again took home the trophy. “I feel great,” Lawhorn said. “I didn’t realize my name was on the trophy until last night.

is second to none.” HVA social studies students joined the recipients in the auditorium and asked questions. The recipients also met with individual students. It was there where Taylor took off his medal and allowed HVA student Annie Dockery to hold it. “I had no idea that was coming … he volunteered it,” Dockery said. “That’s pretty incredible.”

Farragut offense beats rain, fog, Heritage ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
MARYVILLE —- A rainy and foggy night proved to be just what the Farragut High School football needed to get back in the win column Friday night. The miserable conditions didn’t
seem to hinder the Admirals in a 49-30 victory at Heritage Oct. 10. Farragut (2-5 overall, 2-2 in District 4-AAA) fell behind early when the Mountaineers scored the game’s first touchdown on a 1-yard run by Orlando Bledsoe. Bledsoe’s TD, which gave Heritage a 7-0 lead, was set up
by Dustin Richard-son’s long pass to Devin Gardner. Those Admirals 49 were the Mountaineers 30 lone highlights in the first half for Heritage (2-5, 13), which committed turnovers on its next four possessions. The
Mountaineers had a fumble and three interceptions to close out the first half. When the dust had settled, the Ads had a 28-7 halftime lead and were well on their way to snapping a three-game losing streak. “We had been giving up turnovers and we had been dis-
appointed the last few weeks in the way we played,” FHS head coach Eddie Courtney said. “But our kids hung in there and played hard. “We just tried to simplify a few things tonight. It started up front See FARRAGUT, Page 11A

‘Confident’ BHS volleyball upsets Lady Ads, wins tourney ■ ALAN SLOAN
asloan@farragutpress.com
Confidence, great defense including super blocking, a little luck and just simply being the better team that night: all are reasons Bearden volleyball players and coach gave for their exciting five-set upset victory against mighty Farragut. The Lady Bulldogs started quickly in Lady Bulldogs 3 t h i s Lady Admirals 2 D i s t r i c t 4-AAA Tournament championship match at Hardin Valley Academy, before rallying from 9-7 down to win 15-12 in the deciding fifth set (25-22, 19-25, 25-22, 19-25, 15-12) Thursday evening, Oct. 9. “I think we had confidence coming into this game,” said BHS senior setter Carrie McGinnis, tournament MVP with 51 assists in the title match plus eight digs, three blocks and 10 service points. “We didn’t let a ball hit the floor, we were going after everything. And I feel like we were the better team this time. We grew as a team this season, and we knew we could beat them. “We worked hard in practice for blocking and we knew we had to block them to win the [match],” McGinnis added. “They have great hitters, but we knew that if we got blocks we would win.” Bearden senior libero Alex Brandan, an All-Tournament honoree, said, “I think the key was just staying confident in our team and playing our hearts out, really.” Bearden improved to 35-15 with the championship victory. Farragut lost for just the second time all season, the first time against an East Tennessee opponent, and fell to 48-2. David McGinnis, Bearden head coach, credited “great defense,” but added, “We needed a little luck, too. They’re a fantastic team. You can’t take anything away from them. “My kids, they just kept playing,” he added. Strategically, “I got the line-up the way I wanted it and got the players in the right position, which was my fault in the first match [straight set loss to Farragut],” the coach said. Claire Duncan, BHS sophomore outside hitter (All-tourney selection), ended with 15 kills, 15 digs, eight blocks and 12 service

points. “Claire has just really picked it up on the outside. I had her in the middle to begin with, and that’s one of the changes we made,” coach McGinnis said. “Madi [Matthews], she’s never played middle in her life but she’s getting more comfortable with that position. Megan [Chadwick] she’s just a blocking machine. … Carrie, she calls a great game. She’s so smart.” Raegan Grooms, FHS senior outside hitter and All-tourney honoree, ended with 17 kills and 16 points. “They played an awesome game. I think they came out with stronger blocking than we did. They came out really wanting to beat us tonight,” she said. Madi Howell had 19 digs for Farragut. “She’s played in our back row all year great,” FHS head coach Susan Davidson said. Emma Milstead, Lady Ads senior outside hitter who earned Alltourney honors, ended with 19 assists, 12 kills and 14 points. Individually, “Alexis Parker
[All-tourney] and Reagan and Emma have been strong for us in this tournament,” Davidson said.

Bearden left no doubt which team was going to join Farragut and advance into the Region 2AAA Volleyball Tournament. The Lady Bulldogs first swept past Hardin Valley Academy 3sets-to-0 during second round action in the District 4-AAA tourney. Their second 4-AAA tourney meeting, with the loser having its season ended, was all BHS Maroon 25-17, 25-16, 25-17,
Thursday evening, Oct. 10, at HVA. As No. 3 district seed, Bearden (35-15) went on to upset topseeded FHS, which hadn’t lost to a 4-AAA opponent all season, in five sets to claim the tournament title Thursday (see story starting on page 7A). “They’re just a better team right now,” said Lady Hawks head coach Mike Rosenke, whose No. 2 seeded team finishes 37-17. “They played better than us tonight. They played better than
us Tuesday night.” Furthering the frustration from Hardin Valley’s standpoint, “This has been two years now where Lady Bulldogs 3 Bearden has put us Lady Hawks 0 o u t , ” Rosenke said. “I just think they do a better job of showing up post-season time. We’re typically a very good regular season team. But we haven’t shown up when it matters the most. “This one stings a little bit.” Isabella Mitchell, HVA fresh-
man outside hitter, echoed Rosenke’s frustration. “Even though they are a really good team and a really strong team, I think we all said we wanted to win but I don’t think the fight was actually in us,” Mitchell said. “We fought harder towards the end, but towards the beginning I don’t think we were playing like it was our last game.” Individually, “I thought Mandy Prescott played really well, a freshman,” Rosenke said about his right side hitter. Saying she broker her back
early in the season, Prescott added, “I came back about four weeks ago. I think, actually, I’ve come back pretty strong.” Looking ahead, “We’ve got a good foundation to build on with some of our younger players,” Rosenke said. “I’m interested to see how they are going to develop and respond to situations in the future.” Next season, “It’s going to be a learning experience, particularly early next year, but I think that we’re going to compete,” Rosenke added.

When your opponent’s fans get excited just for kicking the ball into your territory — forget any real scoring chances — you know it’s easy street in round one of the District 4-AAA Girls Soccer Tournament. Lenoir City did come into its tourney quarterfinal against No. 3 seed Farragut with seven wins. The Lady Panthers, No. 6 seed, left with no shots on goal in a 7-0 defeat Saturday morning, Oct. 11, in Farragut Soccer Stadium. Grace Sommi, sophomore outside defender, led the Lady Admirals with two goals. Other goals scorers were Kendall Clay, Katy Becker, Megan MacLean, Erin VanHoozier and Emilie Guigou. “The younger ones played real

well,” said FHS head coach Dennis Lindsay, whose team improved to 11-5-2. The Lady Panthers end up 7-10-1. Sommi explained how she’s improved as a sophomore. “I think it’s a very different team. We have a lot of freshmen, so it’s definitely Lady Admirals 7 a growing Lady Panthers 0 e x p e r i ence,” she said. “… Last year I really listened to the seniors, they were very good leaders for us on the field and very good soccer players. … So as the freshmen came up I have been trying to guide them on the field, and I think they really have picked up on it.” MacLean, a freshman defender/midfielder, said Sommi and the other older players “have raised our level of play and they’ve just helped us move up to level competition and played really well and got the confidence we needed,” coach McGinnis said. Bearden finished seventh among a 44-team field. “That’s where it’s at, confidence.” Bearden kept its season alive with a straight set win versus HVA in the loser’s bracket final Oct. 9 to earn a Region 2-AAA berth.

a higher level because they’ve had the experience. “And they’re all just helping us get better with good, constructive criticism.” Gary Rigatti, Lenoir City head coach, said Farragut “has the capability to beat anybody in the top four,” which features No. 1 seed Maryville, No. 2 Hardin Valley Academy and No. 4 Bearden.
Bearden High School’s girls soccer team has survived and advanced. The Lady Bulldogs opened the District 4-AAA Tournament Saturday morning, Oct. 11, with a 5-0 victory over West High in a quarterfinal match at Bruce Allender Field. Bearden, the tournament’s fourth seed, got off to a slow start but finally scored the game’s first goal in the 26th minute when Olivia Graham took a corner kick from Taylor Frizen and promptly banged it past Lady Rebels’ goalkeeper Megan Newport. “We were a little flat early but that’s a Lady Bulldogs 5 district game,” Lady Rebels 0 BHS head coach Ryan Radcliffe said. “[West] is a good team and they didn’t want to go home. They didn’t have anything to lose.” Bearden (9-8-1) was without injured senior forward Ashley Seltzer, who likely will miss the remainder of the postseason. “We’re still trying to figure things out without our Peyton Manning,” Radcliffe said. “Ashley is our playmaker and you don’t realize what she does until she’s not there. You don’t realize what kind of leader she is until you don’t have her.” After a sluggish start, the Lady Bulldogs finally figured things out. BHS took a 2-0 lead when Casey Riemer converted a penal-
ty kick in the 35th minute. “That was big for us,” Radcliffe said. “We miss Ashley but I feel like we did what we needed to do to get ready for this game,” Riemer said. “I’m so excited for my team.” Bearden has had its chances to score during the 2014 season but the Lady Bulldogs have had trouble getting shots in the goal. “For us, it’s about finding the back of the net,” Radcliffe said. “That has been a battle for us. “But once our younger players find the back of the net, they get a little confidence.” The Lady Bulldogs were dominant during the early stages of the second half. Bearden extended its edge to 3-0 when junior Piper Wells scored her first goal of the season in the 63rd minute off an assist from Riemer. Riemer gave Bearden a 4-0 lead in the 66th minute as she converted a second penalty kick. Freshman Kelsey Uselton closed out the scoring with a goal in the 75th minute. The win was big for the Lady Bulldogs, who have had their offensive struggles this season. “It went our way,” Frizen said. “We really missed Ashley but we knew that we had to come out and play hard because West is a great team.” For the Lady Rebels, the loss ended a miserable season marred by injuries to Keeghan See BHS SOCCER, Page 11A

Ferguson said his Hawks “came out flat in the first [half] and coach [Jones], he got into us a little bit at halftime.” In the second half, “We came out with some fire in us,” Ferguson added. “We kind of underestimated them at first. We kind of came out flat. “But we got the job done in the end.” Hardin Valley improved to 4-3 overall, 3-1 in District 4-AAA. Jones said his Hawks “were a little bit confused by some stuff Bearden was doing on defense. And to Bearden’s credit, they played us extremely hard in the first half right there. They came out tonight and they wanted to win. “To our kids’ credit, we challenged them at halftime to step up. We knew we were capable of playing better than what we were in the first half,” Jones added. “We kind of simplified things just a little bit to get hats on hats again.” The Hawks’ other touchdown was a 20-yard lob pass into the end zone from sophomore quarterback Gavin Greene to senior receiver Isaiah Woodruff late with 3:22 remaining in the first quarter, putting HVA up 14-7. Bearden’s lone touchdown came on a 8-yard end around run from Jack Shires to tie it 7-7 with 8:32 left in the first quarter. “It was a read play … the end came down, I bounced outside the end, saw the hole and just hit the hole and was fast enough to get by everybody else and into the end zone,” Shires said. “Believe it or not, we made mistakes in the first half and we were still in the ballgame,” said BHS head coach Morgan Shinlever, whose Bulldogs stay winless at 0-7. “… We took a big step tonight. We did some things tonight that we weren’t able to do earlier this year, and that’s one of the reason
we had some success on offense like we did early,” Shinlever added. “... Matt Marlow [senior tight end] getting down the sideline on the quick screen. ... Taylor Blaine had a really big night for us tonight. Taylor has constantly been getting better each week we’ve played him at the safety position. Most recently, Jack Shires has really started to show up and give us a little bit of a spark on offense.” Blaine, who suffered a hip injury in the first half and did not play in the second half, said about
HVA, “They’ve got some good running backs, but I thought our defense matched up well definitely for the first half.” However, “After halftime they just kind of wore us down with the run I guess,” Blaine added. Crediting HVA defensive coordinator Paul Maynard, Jones said, “Our defense played good.” Individually on both sides, “Ryan Ferguson, he made some big runs,” Jones said. “He does a great job setting up blocks when he gets in the groove. He just runs the ball really hard for us. Issiah
had another pretty good game making some big plays.” Defensively, Jones pointed to his defensive line. “Joe DeFur was around the ball a lot. Joey [Cave] and Garrett [Curtis]. You could mention Garrett Curtis every week. He doesn’t make a ton of tackles but he draws a doubleteam and makes a lot of plays on the inside. And Haddon [Hill] is just having a good year for us at the middle linebacker spot.” DeFur, a junior, said, “We were very disappointed with our firsthalf play. … Bearden played very,
very well and we just underestimated them. So we fixed things at halftime and came back and played hard and shut them out.” As for other top Bulldogs, “Obviously, Griffin DeLong [senior linebacker] had a great game,” Shinlever said. “Tyler Cooper, he’s been starting since about week five [sophomore defensive end], and he’s really coming along nicely,” he added. Cooper said about the first half, “We got our offense going, and our defense was doing amazing. All that teamwork, it was great.”

where we were getting pretty good pressure. We’d been giving up turnovers the last five games and tonight, getting them helped us so much.” The Admirals were opportunistic, taking advantage of Mountaineers’ miscues. The Ads pulled even on their first possession when Amon Johnson scored from three yards out. Farragut’s defense then took center stage. The Ads forced a fumble on Heritage’s next possession. An errant snap hit Richardson and Farragut’s Ben Dunn came up with the loose ball at the Farragut 38-yard line. The Ads would cash in a short time
later when Tanner Thomas scored on a 17-yard scamper to give the visitors a 14-7 lead with 1 minute, 39 seconds left in the opening stanza. “We had a great week of practice and I’m so proud of my defense,” Thomas, who rushed for 165 yards and three touchdowns, said. “I’m proud of my offensive line.” The Ads scored two more touchdowns in the second quarter as Thomas had a 1-yard plunge and Derek Williams caught a 35-yard scoring strike from junior quarterback Jacob Naumoff. “We work so hard and the wins just haven’t been in our favor,” Williams, who had a pair of interceptions in addition to his touch-
down reception, said. “It feels good to come in here and get this win.” Justin Kirkendall also had an interception in the first half as the Farragut defense made life miserable for the Mountaineers and head coach Tim Hammontree. “If you play 28 plays and on those 28, you turn it over four times it’s clear that you’re not going to score,” Hammontree said. “When you are fumbling, throwing a pick and making a bad read, we can’t overcome that in a half.” The Ads continued to pour it on in the second half. Farragut took the second-half kickoff and marched 60 yards on nine plays. Naumoff culminated the drive
with a 4-yard scoring run that extended Farragut’s advantage to 35-7. “We needed this win tonight,” Naumoff, who threw for 213 yards and two TDs, said. “It’s a great win. Our offensive line stepped up and did a good job.” Thomas had a 1-yard touchdown run in the frame to make it 42-7. Farragut added an exclamation point in the fourth quarter on Naumoff’s touchdown pass to Franklin Stooksbury. “Naumoff came up big tonight,” Thomas said. Heritage made things a little more interesting in the final stanza with a safety and pair of touchdown passes from Richardson to Devin Harris.

Francis (one of Knox County’s prolific scorers) and starting goalkeeper Morgan Jones. Without those two players, the young Lady Rebels were hampered. Newport, West’s freshman netminder, was sharp early and was able to keep the Lady Rebels in the match. West High rookie head coach Nick Kim was disappointed in the loss but he certainly couldn’t complain about his young squad’s effort. “We played hard and the girls gave it all they had,” said Kim, who saw the fifth-seeded Lady Rebels finish the season 3-12-1.

Tailgate A “Go Hawks” atmosphere was especially evident, along with an atmosphere smelling of grilled hamburgers and hot dogs, Friday evening, Sept. 12. Hardin Valley Academy Tailgate, an annual sponsor-driven munch-fest held prior to HVA football’s first varsity game, found South-Doyle as the opponent. Chips, soft drinks and cookies made the grilled hamburgers and hot dogs all the tastier. Sandwiches, tacos and pizza also made for fun fare, as Hardin Valley parents and fans enjoyed munching down while exchanging humor and football talk. Various forms of entertainment included cornhole games. Joining Food City as HVA Tailgate primary sponsors were Access Solutions, Inc., Subway, Embroidery Boutique, Taco Boy, Studio C, Marco’s Pizza, Sam’s Club and Moonwalks and Such and Mayfield Dairy Farms.

All alone at the top, Catholic undefeated ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
Area high school football teams are now entering the home stretch of the season and the quest for the trophy in the farragutpress How the West was Won Presented by 3 Minute Magic Carwash. Knoxville Catholic High School is the lone undefeated team and the Irish kept a perfect 7-0 record intact with a home victory over Anderson County at Blaine Stadium in Week 7. KCHS jumped to a big lead en route to a 50-14 win over the previously unbeaten Mavericks (7-1). Catholic opened a 22-0 advantage and cruised thanks in large part to five touchdown passes and 279 yards from quarterback Zac Jancek. The early deficit forced Anderson County to abandon its potent ground game. Dom Souder hauled in three touchdown receptions for the Irish. Jordan And-
erson and Amari Rodgers also had scoring receptions. Rodgers also ran for a score for Catholic, which led 36-7 at halftime. The Irish face a tough road test at Scott County this week. The Highlanders (6-2 overall, 1-2 in District 4AA) routed Cumberland County 36-2 last week. Scott County opened the 2014 campaign with five straight wins before losing to Alcoa and Christian Academy of Knoxville. While Catholic’s dominant roll continued, the Warriors saw their modest two-game winning streak snapped last week on a rainy Friday night in Kentucky. CAK (4-3 overall, 1-1 in District 4-AA) darted to a 7-0 first-quarter lead when Cole Smith connected with Phillip Nichols on a scoring strike. CAK, however, surrendered 31 unanswered points to the Pirates, who won a Kentucky State Championship last season.

CAK will host Alcoa (6-1 overall, 2-0 in District 4-AA) Friday in a showdown between two Class 3A powerhouses. The Tornadoes were idle last week. Alcoa won the state title last season and is riding a four-game winning streak since losing to Maryville. CAK and Alcoa have combined to win the last 10 state titles. The Warriors claimed back-toback State Championships in 2011 and 2012. Alcoa eliminated CAK from the playoffs last season after bowing out to the Warriors in in each of CAK’s championship seasons. Meanwhile, Hardin Valley Academy notched a District 4-AAA victory at Bearden Friday night on Kingston Pike. The Hawks (4-3, 3-1) downed the Bulldogs (0-7, 04) 41-7. HVA, which had a 14-7 halftime lead, blew open a close one in the second half. The Hawks, who scored 20 fourth-quarter points, got a touchdown
pass from Gavin Greene. Ryan Ferguson rushed for three touchdowns and Isaiah Aguero added two scores on the ground. Bearden scored its only points when Jack Shires’ 8yard TD run in the first quarter. Hardin Valley will travel to Sutherland Avenue to face West this week. The Rebels notched a 70-14 victory over William Blount last week. West (6-1, 3-1) has won five straight games since losing to Maryville. Bearden will travel to Farragut to renew its rivalry with the Admirals Friday night. Farragut (2-5, 2-2) halted a three-game skid with a big 49-30 district win over Heritage on a foggy night in Maryville last week. The Ads fell behind early but forced the Mountaineers into four first-half turnovers. Farragut intercepted Dustin Richardson three times and forced a fumble. The Admirals scored 21 points of Her-

itage’s miscues. Tanner Thomas rushed for 165 yards and three touchdowns for FHS, which also got rushing scores from Amon Johnson and quarterback Jacob
Naumoff. Naumoff also threw touchdown passes to Derek Williams (who also had a pair of interceptions) and Franklin Stooksbury.

Mind Yer P’s and Q’s comes to Farragut ■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
The town of Farragut can soon expect to get a craft beer and wine lounge in the community. Marci Stiles and Hollie Hennessy, owners of Mind Yer P’s and Q’s, said they plan to open the business Friday, Oct. 31, in the Renaissance Center, 12744 Kingston Pike, Suite 104. “We’re excited to come to Farragut and be a part of the community,” Stiles, who will serve as manager of the business, said, adding people will have an opportunity to sample their beers and wines at the Mind Yer P’s and Q’s booth during Farragut Food Festival Friday, Sept. 26, on the front lawn of Renaissance Center. “Mind Yer P’s and Q’s is a place for people who enjoy all types of beer and wine,” Stiles said. “We recognize that not everyone drinks craft beer, and that sometimes a good old stand-by or domestic beer is preferred. “We will offer a variety of beer on tap from craft, high gravity to domestic,” she added. “Our wine selection will range from those you recognize to some eclectic .... In addition, small appetizers will be available to enjoy with your drink selection.” Hennessy said people can expect a casual, relaxed atmosphere in the lounge, and Stiles added it would probably have jazz music and be more upscale. The business was approved for a Class 4 on-premise tavern and Class 5 off-premise permit from the Farragut Beer Board during the Board’s meeting Thursday, Aug. 28. “We came up with the concept [for the idea for Mind Your P’s and Q’s] while we were sitting around discussing how many dif-
ferent beers and varieties of wines were out there,” Hennessy said. “We recognized that Farragut has different restaurants and bars but not a loungetype environment, so we thought Farragut should be a good place for this type of establishment.” “We’ve been working on this for several months, gathering research,” Stiles added. Both women also reside in Farragut. Stiles said she came to the community 10 years ago and was looking for a change from customer service and work with the Knox County School System. “I enjoyed being around people and I enjoyed being around the wine lounge,” she said. “My beer and wine go-to list was pretty short at that time,” Stiles added. “Over the past several years I saw the local and Southern breweries begin to evolve and restaurants increase their menu list. “As we began trying their brews, I saw my go-to list expand. I enjoyed the different brews I’ve tasted, but the best is having good brews with good friends.” “Our beer and wine lounge is a good way to have good beer and good wine with good friends,” Hennessy said. She came to Farragut four years ago from Oregon. “I brought with me a love for really good wine,” she said, adding she loves meeting other wine lovers, learning what they like and directing them toward some of the wines from the West Coast and the Northwest. “I learned Farragut is a good place for a craft beer and wine lounge, for this experience goes beyond the craft beer and wine lounge, it is also about the craft of See NEW BIZ on Page 2B

Tennessee Small Business Development Center is partnering with Tennessee State Bank, 11470 Parkside Drive, to host a series of “Lunch & Learn” workshops for area small businesses this August through December. The series will go through three phases — Google-ize Your Business, Growth Wheel, and Pin and Tweet Your Business. Each of these phases have been tested in
the surrounding East Tennessee area, but this is the first chance local small businesses have to take advantage of such a learning opportunity in the West Knox County area. “We have started this year offering them in other counties as a beta program, and we’ve tweaked it as we’ve gone along to best suit the needs of our clients and small businesses,” Laura Overstreet, TSBDC business specialist, said. The Google-ize phase of the workshop will teach small busi-
nesses owners and employees how “to get the best Google ranking available to them [and] how to use blogs and social media to generate targeted leads to their website for their e-mail marketing campaigns,” according to Overstreet. GrowthWheel, phase two of the training, is a “visual tool box for decision making and action planning” for local entrepreneurs. This five-week series will touch on a broad spectrum of topics, includSee TSBDC on Page 2B

The preschool, open year round, offers Balanced Learning curriculum, which combines teacherdirected with child-initiated activities, she said. “It’s a balanced, purposeful approach to nurturing active minds, healthy bodies and happy hearts,” she added. The preschool starts with 6weeks-old infants and goes to fullday kindergarten-aged children, Brinkman said, adding it has 12 See PRIMROSE on Page 2B

classrooms that focus on a specific age group. The school uses sign language with infants as a means of communicating to teach music and large and small motor development while older pre-kindergarten children wear uniforms and are taught Spanish, writing, technology, math, reading, science and social studies, she said. “Every classroom does music, art and character development, which focuses on giving back to the community, honesty, fairness, kindness and courage,” she said. “We have weekly units of learning that are theme-based. “For example, this week they are learning about celebrating cultures, such as Mexico,” Brinkman said. Next week, students will learn about China, and the next week, France then Italy, she added. Brinkman added the researchinformed curriculum is developed by early education experts at the school’s corporate office.
“We are the first early childhood education organization in the country to receive AdvancED accreditation under the standards for Quality Early Learning Schools,” she said. Primrose also has an afterschool program for ages 5 to 12 who attend Farragut Primary, Farragut Intermediate and Northshore Elementary, Brinkman said. The school, which is part of a franchise, is owned locally by the Webbs. Prior to opening Primrose School of Farragut, they owned Primrose School in Gahanna, Ohio. “They moved here specifically to open the school,” Brinkman said. “They saw a need for an advanced day care in the area.” “Our Primrose School means much more to us than just a job; our journey with Primrose School all started as working parents looking for an alternative to daycare for our oldest son, Garrett,” Amanda Webb said. The school is open 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information, call the school at 865-966-7673.

It helps the entrepreneurs “specifically on understanding those two social media platforms and how those two use them for successful small business marketing.” Each phase requires separate
“pints” and quarts — a way barkeeps make sure patrons do not drink too much. At the same time, she said the phrase stands for “prime” and “quality.” Hennessy said what they are trying to accomplish is: “people getting a chance to enjoy quality beer and wine in a social environment.”

Weather folklore an East Tn. tradition: Haley Comes from generations living in the mountains noticing clues
■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
If the folk signs of the East Tennessee region holds true, Heather Haley, meteorologist and reporter with WLVT-TV, said the region can expect a colder, wet winter. The folklore of how nature predicts the coming winter has been handed down through the ages, Haley, a Farragut High School graduate, said. “I think a lot of it comes from generations of people living in the mountains and noticing the possible clues coming from nature,” she said. “I know some people still do [believe]. “For them, it’s a tradition and a way for people to plan ahead for winter.” Some of the most popular weather folk signs in the region involve the wooly bear caterpillar, also known as the wooly worm, persimmons and fog, she said. “The wooly worm is the most popular one around here,” Haley said. “The old saying with wooly worms, is the thinner the brown stripe on it, the harsher the winter. “Actually, what I’ve seen from photos our local viewers sent us, is
little to no stripe,” she said. Another big weather folklore is the number of fogs taking place in August will predict the number of snows in the winter, Haley said. “Because it has to be tracked to a specific location, I tracked it at McGhee-Tyson Airport from the National Weather Service,” she said. “There were 23 fogs in August, and three of those fogs were dense. “So, based on the lore, that means there will be three big snow events,” Haley said. Another lore involves cutting open a persimmon. “One of the most common folklores in the Appalachian area is to look at the seeds, or embryo, inside a persimmon,” she said. “You have to cut it in half and look for a shape in the center. “If it’s a spoon, it’s supposed to indicate a shovel-worthy winter or a lot of snow ahead,” Haley said. Besides the three most common signs, she said there are little signs, but they are harder to track. One of those is to look at where squirrels build their nests. “They build them higher in the trees if it’s going to be a harsh winter,” Haley said. Some people look for spiders’
nests. “I’ve heard some people reference spiders and say they build their webs larger and higher as they prepare for a harsh winter,” Haley said. More acorns with thicker shells See HALEY on Page 4B

Based on feedback from his teachers, Reggie Mosley’s first school year as principal at Farragut Intermediate School is starting on a positive note in terms of “organization.” However, test scores in two
major areas of study from last school year hit a sour note. “What we noticed was that we didn’t do well in [math], we didn’t do well in literacy,” Mosley said to Dr. Jim McIntyre Jr., Knox County Schools superintendent, during his visit to FIS Thursday morning, See VISITS on Page 4B
An expected crowd of 2,500 spectators plus 15 high school bands from East and Middle Tennessee will fill Farragut High School stadium and Bill Clabo Field for the 2014 Admiral’s Cup Invitational Marching Band Competition Saturday, Oct. 18. Hosted by Farragut High School Band Boosters, this event showcases musical talent from the region and is one of the band boosters’ largest fundraisers. The first band takes the field at 12:10 p.m. and the awards ceremony begins at 7 p.m. “The Admiral’s Cup Invitational has been designed to provide an educational and rewarding performance experience for students, staff, parents and spectators. The purpose of this event is to celebrate achievement in the performing arts, acknowledge the hard work and dedication necessary to develop and sustain fine band programs and promote growth in the activity through education and a positive competitive environment” Claudia Stallings,
FHS Band Booster spokesperson, said. Competing bands are: Alcoa, Bradley Central, Cocke County, East Hamilton, Elizabethton, Fulton, Gibbs, Heritage, Karns, Red Bank, Siegel, Soddy-Daisy, South-Doyle and West high schools along with Donelson Christian Academy. Former radio personality Larry Trotter will serve as announcer for the event. Farragut High School Marching Admirals will perform in exhibition after all other bands have performed and prior to the awards
ceremony. Tickets are $7 and ages 5 and under are free.

Aug. 28. “Literacy was, really, the biggest deficit. “The staff was very surprised; disappointed to say the least,” Mosley added. “… The teachers though they did a great job in preparation [for the students] to do a great job, but it just didn’t pan out that way.” Later that morning, McIntyre discovered that Farragut Primary School is getting a $7,500 “resource” boost. “We’re starting a resource library that we’ve never had. PTA has given our curriculum coach $7,500 this year and another $7,500 next year,” FPS principal Gina Byrd told McIntyre. “We were finding that second-grade, the teachers, they needed more informational text, books, to help with that.” Also to be added are “non-fiction books because kids like those,” Byrd added. Among her 948 students (as of

Aug. 28), Byrd said, “Our diversity has really grown a lot, and I love it.” Byrd said she continues to cooperate with FIS (1,020 students as of Aug. 28) to share data. To help remedy the deficits at FIS, Mosley said, “What we did at the very beginning of the school year, I was kind of strategic in how I would present that information,” Mosley said about discussing last school year’s testing data with his teachers. Mosley said he had each teacher “go online and look at their individual data … answer a series of questions pertaining to their students and their performances. “Some of [the teachers] are really taking ownership of their own data. And you have a few, in my opinion, who are looking for an excuse as to why their kids didn’t do as well,” Mosley told McIntyre. Improvement in literacy “is going to be our push,” Mosley added. “… We have a literacy coach, and so she shares some insights with us” that included “Climatologically speaking, we may be looking at a colder, more wet winter from different outlooks,” Haley said. “It’s an El Niño year, and that will have an impact on the South Eastern United States.”

That’s part of the reason behind, they think, why we didn’t do as well.” Asked by McIntyre how he would challenge his school’s highest performing students, Mosley said, “We have a plan to grow our high achieving students. … It’s those high kids we don’t have a set program for.” Using “enrichment time” with groups of high achieving students, teachers are to keep “a running record … documenting the skills we’re teaching, how many kids are in that group,” Mosley said. “That’s one of the ways that we’re going to keep track of all our students, but particularly our high-fliers.”

McIntyre learns of ‘TwoBlues’
WORKING JANE:
Bland welcomes global customers to Knoxville Harley Davidson West ■ ALAN SLOAN
asloan@farragutpress.com
You might be surprised how many international bikers Kim Bland serves at Knoxville Harley Davidson West. “We have them from France, Germany, Italy, Australia, from different countries. When they travel they stop in,” said Bland, a motor clothes saleswoman at Knoxville Harley Davidson West, 605 Lovell Road, since August 2005 who has been a clothing saleswoman for 33 years. Despite nationality, “You treat them all the same,” Bland said. “It’s kind of comical sometimes. We laugh at them, they laugh at us when we can’t understand what they’re saying. And then
we start pointing. Sometimes we’ll write it down. “It’s just one of those things w h e r e you’ve got to get a feel for that person, too.” Far from dreading her work, “I enjoy Bland every bit of it,” Bland said. “I like selling people things, and I just like talking to people and meeting people from all around the world, basically. Usually it’s a lot of fun, you make it fun.” “Every day’s an adventure,” Bland added. “You don’t know
who you’re going to meet that day and where they’re from and listen to some of their stories. “Even some of your regular customers that come in that put a smile on your face. … Because you know that they’re going to make your day pleasant.” Among 24 “staff members,” Bland said the working environment at her Harley Davidson store “is more down to earth” versus other retail stores for which she has worked. “I have got a family here and that’s what it’s about. … My folks live in Alabama and I go [to that Harley store] and they treat you the same, they treat you like a family, too. “You get to know how many grandkids they have, how many
■
kids they have, how long they’ve been riding. It’s one of those personable things only Harley Davidson and a hairdresser have, or a doctor,” added Bland, a Knox County resident for 10 years. In 1981, Bland said she started as a saleswoman “at a little mom-and-pop shop in Indiana.” A Harley Davidson biker since 1982, Bland added, “That was when it wasn’t cool for women to ride bikes. Guys didn’t like it as much because of the manbiker thing. That women belonged on the back of the bike. “Now I belong on the front, too. … It’s been more accepted probably in the last 15 years.”

Though her husband, Michael Reynolds, isn’t the principal at Farragut High School anymore, Hardin Valley Academy principal Sallee Reynolds still is forging new cooperative learning and fundraising efforts between the schools. As part Tennessee Educator Acceleration Model to aid teachers, “Farragut and Hardin Valley have collaborated and we each have nine lead teachers,” Reynolds said of what is called TwoBlues Team Training. “So we’ve paired one Hardin Valley lead teacher with one Farragut lead teacher” to lead a joint teacher meeting. “… We had 20 teachers from both schools combined turnout” during a Tuesday, See TWOBLUES on Page 7B

Aug. 19 meeting. Dr. Jim McIntyre Jr., Knox County Schools superintendent, learned about this cooperative effort among various inquiries during his annual visit to HVA, which came Friday morning, Aug. 23. “We’ve still got to close the gaps,” Reynolds said about HVA testing results. “… Figure out what we can do to increase achievement across the board. “Our top quintile isn’t growing as much. They’re achieving well, but the growth is not there,” she added. “The gap that we had with students with disabilities two years ago, particularly in math, to where it is now has [been] more
than cut in half. In English, the gap widened. …We’ve got to work on that. … Our algebra I we still have to continue to work on.” Adding an instructional coach, “Having her as a math teacher, it makes a big difference,” Reynolds said about Deni Migun. “We’re going to have our algebra I teachers meet with her once a week to plan.” Among the classrooms McIntyre visited was one that combines “honors English 9 and honors world history” with two teachers, Reynolds said of Seth Raymen and Staci Messing. “They take turns. They may do one day of English, one day of history. They may do a week of English and a week of history,” Reynolds said. “They try to bring topics together. Like when the English teacher assigns a read-
ing, it’s going to have some sort of world historical aspect to it.” Another visit was Teresa Sexton’s class of predominantly seniors, which is “part of a state pilot for the dual credit advanced algebra-trig[onometry],” Reynolds said. The end payoff, if scoring high enough on a test, “is both college credit and high school credit, and all of the Board of Regents schools in Tennessee have agreed to accept that as a credit.” Wearing slip-on shoes with periodic tables printed on all sides during a McIntyre visit, Dr. Travis Quick’s chemistry I honors class was instructed about the relationships — as plotted on a graph — between the three forms of matter: solid, liquid and gas.

The benefits of being disorganized (Part I) All I ever wanted to be was a wife and mom, so I majored in Home Economics in college. One of the courses was in cooking which I’ve always loved to do. Part of the curriculum included a time and motion study to track our steps while baking a Pam cake. Young “ B y Make it being orgto tell you a Fun! story that ties in with my AHA moment, but you’ll have to read all the way to the end to see how it affects you if you’re blessed with being disorganized. In a wonderful book called anized,” Miss Cratzberry, the professor, told us; “you will save valuable time and energy to use on other activities in your homes. Being aware of the steps we take in the kitchen, preparing the family’s meals, is vital to becoming efficient in the daily tasks of homemaking.” I’m sure this study was thought up by some efficiency expert like Miss Cratzberry who never married and never had kids. In fact, one of the lessons in her course study was entitled Handling Servants. (Over the years, that information has come in so handy for me!) Back to the cake walk; I remember winning the prize for the most steps taken! One quarter mile! (Actually I didn’t win a prize as it was supposed to be bad news for me, but I decided to turn it around in my 19-year-old mind into a good thing.) Webster defines a time and motion study as: a systematic observation, analysis, and measurement of the separate steps in the performance of a specific job for the
purpose of establishing a standard time for each performance, improving procedures, and increasing productivity —called also motion and time study, motion study, time study. This is what I envision my resulting steps to look like. Years later when I really was a mom and wife, I never forgot the results of my time and motion test. One day it hit me while I was packing up stuff to take to the gym for an hour workout, that with my gift of taking too many steps in life, it really was a benefit! Because of my attention deficit disorganization, I suddenly realized I was probably getting in a full workout every day. In fact, if I didn’t go to the gym, I’d save the time, energy and money that that activity took from my day. Put that in your time and motion study Miss Cratzberry! Change your thinking, change your body I’m going You Are the Placebo by Dr. Joe Dispenza, he tells of a 2007 study at Harvard by some pretty impressive researchers: psychologist Alia Crum, Ph.D., and Ellen Langer, Ph. D. involving 84 hotel maids. At the start of the study, the maids all got physicals and none of them knew that the routine work they performed in their jobs exceeded the Surgeon General’s recommendation for a healthy amount of daily exercise (30 minutes). In fact, 67 percent of the maids told the researchers that they didn’t exercise regularly, and 37 percent said they didn’t get any exercise. After this initial assessment, Crum and Langer divided the maids into two groups. (Each group was from a different hotel so the maids wouldn’t benefit from any talk at the water cooler or the mini bar in room 941.) They explained to the first group how their activity related to the number of calories they burned

and told the women that just by doing their jobs, they got more than enough exercise. They didn’t give any such information to the second group. One month later, the researchers found that the first group lost an average of two pounds, lowered their percentage of body fat, and lowered their systolic blood pressure (that’s the top number that’s the higher one) by an average of 10 points, even tho-ugh they hadn’t performed any additional exercise outside of work or changed their eating habits in any way. The other group, doing the same job as the first, remained the same.
Just thinking a thought cha-nged the condition of the maids in group one. Thought can change your body, so start thinking this thought: Disorganized moms burn more calories than organized moms do. Disorganized women exceed the Surgeon Generals recommendation for exercise every day. Just with this new knowledge, I expect you to lose two pounds, lower your systolic blood pressure reading and lower the percentage of fat content in your body in the next month! Remind yourself every day of this new knowledge. In fact, because I know you are going to sit down in a secluded, quiet room
several times a day to pee, take that time to tell yourself this information and watch what happens. Thank you for reading my blog! I hope it helps you appreciate what a blessing you are.
