BOMA nixes Guns in Farragut parks 3-2 ■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
Mayor Ralph McGill broke the 2-to-2 tie Thursday, Oct. 24, to keep the ban on guns in parks when the issue came before a vote by Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen. The Board voted 3-to-2 on the first reading of the ordinance to keep the ban of guns in parks.
Alderman Bob Markli and Vice Mayor Dot LaMarche voted to amend the ordinance to a l l o w LaMarche firearms while Aldermen Ron Honken and Jeff Elliott voted to keep the ban.
Emotions on the issue were mixed between Board members and citizens. The Board discussed the issue Elliott during a workshop Thursday, Sept. 26.
Town administrator David Smoak said the Town’s current regulations do not a l l o w firearms or McGill fireworks in any of its park facilities. In 2009, the state

Illegal signs: weekend eyesores
FHS gears up for future ■ As a vital part of it’s $1.75 million facelift and technology-related upgrade that is almost complete, Farragut High School now is wired to accept 1-to-1 electronic personalized learning devices. The next challenge, according to FHS principal Michael Reynolds, is acquiring donations to pay for a “management system,” including laptops or iPads for each of his 1,700-plus students, so his students could follow the path of Bearden High School (tax-funded system) and fully implement 1-to-1 technology. This is one key area where Farragut area businesses could step to the plate, Reynolds said. However, “I think our kids have bought into the school, and I think that our parents have bought into the school, but I don’t think our businesses have bought in. Not to the academic side of it,” Reynolds told an FHS Parent Connection lunch gathering, sponsored by its Parent Teacher Student Organization, at Concord Yacht Club Thursday, Sept. 19. “They’ll open their checkbooks up for the athletic side,” he added. “… We really need to start focusing in on getting a commitment from our businesses to sup-

Without town of Farragut codes staffers around on weekends to pick up yard sale and garage signs illegally placed in a given yard’s public right-of-way, it’s similar to the mice playing when the cat’s away. “I’m sure it’s part of human nature. People do try to see what they can get by with, I guess, if there’s nobody around to pick the signs up if they’re in the right-of-way,” said Mark Shipley, interim Community Development director. “I’m not normally driving through the Town on weekends, and I’m not sure to what degree there’s a problem out there. … That probably happens in every community.” However, “We do go through the Town first thing Monday morning, our codes staff, and we do pick up signs that are in public rightsof-ways,” Shipley said. “… I’m sure we have more signs we pick up Mondays than any See SIGNS on Page 3A

Familiar faces greeted Farragut Intermediate School students and their families who came to dine Tuesday, Oct. 22, at McDonald’s restaurant in Farragut. That evening, a number of FIS teachers partnered with McDonald’s restaurant for McTeachers’ Night, arriving in shifts, ready to greet customers, which included their students and their families. “We partner with our community, and what we do is a portion of our sales, from 5 to 8 p.m., will go to Farragut Intermediate School, said Jenny Tippens, general manager

McDonald’s in Farragut. Carolyn Clemmons, a third-grade FIS teacher, said this is the third or fourth year she has taken part in the event. A portion of sales the school receives from McTeachers’ Night is used for classroom supplies, she said. “Last year, we each got $70,” Clemmons added. “I used my share for flashcards and software for math and reading. “Every penny helps,” Clemmons said. “I didn’t have to buy it out of my pocket.” In return, the teachers work three shifts between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m., greeting customers, meeting the students and keeping the crowd calm during the
event, Tippens said. “It gives us a nice chance to meet students in a different setting,” said Claire Kelly, a fourth-grade teacher at FIS. Tippens said McDonald’s and the school have been doing McTeachers’ Night since she has been with McDonalds, which has been about 10 years. “It think it just enforces our brand image that we support education and the importance of it,” she said. “This could be our next generation of workers.” Tippens noted McDonald’s also offers all kinds of educational scholarships, even for its restaurant’s managers. “I just enjoy it,” Claire Kelly, a fourth-grade
teacher at FIS, said about McTeachers’ Night. “I enjoy meeting with my students and their parents outside the school environment.” “I thought it would be fun, and it’s a great way to support the school,” said Linda Cline, third-grade FIS teacher, about McTeachers’ Night. “The parents get to know us in a different setting.” “I came down to visit with students and their families,” said Dacia Hix, a third-grade teacher who teaches science at FIS. Hix said she plans to use her share of McTeachers’ Night funds to purchase enrichment materials, See FIS on Page 3A

port the academics.” While praising the efforts of Farragut Education Foundation and its president, Jerry Martin, Reynolds added after the meeting, “We really need to firm up that business partnership for long-term investment in the schools. “Getting those businesses on board to say, ‘Yes, we’re really invested in the academics, protects the long-term growth of the school and protects the community,” he added. “… We want people to tie into the Foundation. What you’d like to see is the creation of an endowment, so long after we’re gone Farragut High School stays strong and is perpetuated.” Though Knox County Schools has it’s Partners In Education program that is supposed to support each of its 89 kindergartento-12th grade schools with business partners — FHS has six business partners according to the KCS website — Reynolds said PIE “is district wide” and is “different” than the support he’s seeking. However, Scott Bacon, KCS director of Business Partners, said “most of that activities nowadays” with PIE “are taking place where schools are reaching out to organizations in their communities.” Partners in Education also coordinates a given school with
“churches and group civic clubs” and includes more than monetary donations, Bacon added. “More often than not anymore, it’s the school that will say, ‘Hey, we’ve got this need,’ and the business or organization will say, ‘Well, gosh, we can help meet that need.’ They start working together, and they report to us that, ‘Hey we’ve now picked up Krispy Kreme or the town of Farragut or whatever’ as a new partner.” The latest KSC website information shows Farragut Primary with seven business partners, Farragut Intermediate six and Farragut Middle with three. Bacon said all partners’ donations “stay at that given school,” with no portion required to go to KCS. Among “aggressive” K-12, Bacon said the new Northshore Elementary School “will reach out to anybody that’s breathing around their new school. They’ve got 30-something partner organizations already. It’s phenomenal.” Bacon said he sometimes will come across a given business — “fast food places are more apt to do this, or a bank, places with multiple locations” — where he and other KCS staff discover those business saying, ‘We really need to expand [our donations] and do more schools.’ … I’ll try to make the fit [school to business] that makes the most sense.”

Zachary to face Duncan Citing spiritual support and encouragement from fellow members of First Baptist Concord, Jason Zachary said he feels “led” to challenge U.S. Rep. John J. “Jimmy” Duncan. This Farragut businessman and 1995 Farragut High School graduate, seeking political office for the first time at age 36, is attempting to remove the Duncan name from Tennessee’s 2nd Congressional District leadership for the first time in more than half a century. “In March 2011, the Lord began to work on my heart about service.

They stick them out Friday night, Saturday morning. … People are typically going to garage and yard sales over the weekend since they’re not working,” he added. “… I had one guy pick up about 20 signs [Sept. 24].” “There are some citizens that put up signs because they know they’re not allowed.” As for what’s legal, “We do allow open house real estate signs to be off premises on the weekends,” Shipley said, adding that real estate signs “are probably the only free standing sign that’s allowed.” “It could be that some people do see those signs and think, ‘Well, my yard sale sign should be fine, too.’” For violators whose illegal signage is on their property, “Typically we’ll send a letter — it depends on the violation,” Shipley said. “… And we request them to remove the sign in a reasonable time frame. It depends on the sign, too. … If somebody puts up a very substantial sign without a permit, the time frame [to have homeowners remove it] is going to be longer.” Also, “We’ll call them and ask them in a nice way … that’s

what we typically do on a sign that something easy to remove,” Shipley said. “Usually they do and it’s not an issue.” However, “If it’s a repeat offender and we’ve had to get on to them in the past, what I’ll typically do is I’ll send a letter to them,” Shipley said. A second letter would warn, “‘If you don’t remove it by this date we will have no other recourse but to cite you to court,’” Shipley said. “Rarely does that ever happen.”

• This is to the person who wrote or called in to the farragutpress complaining about the paper being tossed in the driveways of people’s homes instead of being put in their mailboxes ... as they should be so they are not an eyesore or so that they don’t get blown around! I have checked with the U.S. Postal Service several times on this sort of thing and I have been told that under “no circumstances” is anything allowed to be placed in any one’s mailbox
that “is not” U.S. Mail and put there by a postal carrier. So in short ... it is against the law to put any thing but postage paid U.S. Mail in a person’s or business’ mailbox! Also from what I was led to understand, if caught it is an arrestable offense ... not sure if it is a felony or a misdemeanor, but it is apparently against the law to use a mail box for anything other than mail! • Editorial freedom is a wonderful concept, but it does come with its responsibilities.

Zachary Zachary said. “Brother Doug said, ‘This is an idea whose time has come.’ Brother Doug was a huge encouragement to me along with the other pastors there. As 2011 rolled on, I sought counsel from those men and those mentors that I’ve known for so long that are a part of my church body. Those are the first people I consulted with. Those were the men that were the consistent encouragement for me to say, ‘We’re with you, we’ll help you. We’ll walk with you and we’ll encourage you to do this.’” As for reasons to unseat Duncan, a Farragut resident who has served 2nd District since 1988, Zachary cited “a lack of
leadership in Washington, D.C.” “I will go up and provide active leadership,” Zachary said. “Leadership is influence, leadership is networking. I’ve built over the last 15 years through leadership. … I will go up and lead by providing influence, by networking and building relationships. … We have to bring a businessminded approach and private sector experience to be able to tackle these issues. “I think the fact that Congressman Duncan, in 26 years, has never chaired a committee, speaks to his lack of leadership in Washington, D.C.,” Zachary added. Expressing concern about the constantly rising nation debt, “Congressman Duncan has voted multiple times to increase the debt ceiling. … The last time
being in 2011, you can look that up. … Where he voted to increase the debt ceiling from 14 trillion to 16 trillion dollars.” As for his specific ideas for cuts, Zachary said that was hard to do because “the pressing issues and what’s on the hot plate could be very different [once he were to take office] than what we’re facing right now.” Also, “Congressman Duncan [had] no constituent town halls or public forums planned for the entire five-week recess. … We confirmed that with his Washington office,” Zachary said. “Politics should not be a family dynasty,” Zachary added. “We’ve had 50 years of one family sitting in one seat. “I will self-term limit and then I will come home.”
guns are allowed in the parks so the committee members felt allowing guns would be detrimental to bringing more people into the community. During last Thursday’s meeting, Capt. Jeff Palmer of Knox C o u n t y Sheriff’s Office said the area has low crime rates but there will be some crime against property. He said the Tyrell Sheriff’s Office would support any ordinance the Board passes. At the Sept. 26 workshop, there were a majority of citizens in favor of allowing firearms, but at the Oct. 24 meeting, the sup-
port shifted to the current code prohibiting firearms. Brenda Tyrrell of 626 Saint John Court, said she was opposed to allowing guns in parks because she felt safer knowing there are not people carrying concealed weapons. However, R o b e r t Smith of 820 McKinley Point Lane contended p e o p l e should be Smith allowed to carry guns to defend themselves. Board members also had mixed opinions. Honken said he did not see a justification for changing the current ordinance. He also said he did not see how
allowing people to carry guns will make the parks safer. “I think it’s sad we have to make this decision,” he said. “We have an obligation to make decisions for our community as a whole.” However, Markli contended “If we wait on the argument the parks are safe, we wait until a tragedy occurs.” McGill said he is concerned allowing guns in the parks will keep schools from using the parks. “This would be a situation we would have to post ‘no guns’ when schools are using the parks,” he said. “We would have to take reservations from the schools. We would have to put up signs and stuff. “I don’t think that is a business we would need to get into,” the mayor added. “If there’s no guns in the parks, then we never have to worry about it.”

its current ordinance. Ron Binchok, chairman of the Town’s Parks and Athletics Council, said council members discussed the fact there were only a few incidents that occurred in the park and that there are so many young children using the park. “I guess the concern is, if guns are present, it would increase the risk of an accident happening,” Binchok said. “We would like to avoid that from happening by not allowing guns in the parks.” Also, he said another issue is the committee is proud of the Town’s parks. “We want to continue to draw people to our community, and we’re hoping we can draw people to our parks for competitive athletics” Binchok said.

Belt inspiring others, earns award ■
TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com
Larry Belt, 72, of Farragut has come a long way in his recovery from Guillian-Barre Syndrome; and by sharing his story, he was recently was recognized for inspiring others. Belt won the Richard L. Swanson Inspiration Award, which honors a member of the Health-ways SilverSneakers Fitness Program at the Davis Family YMCA. He was asked to write his experience and submit it for the award. His submission went nationwide. “It was great recognition, really, of what the many people – nurses, doctors, therapists and instructors had done to enable me to recover almost to 100 percent,” Larry said. Prayer and a desire to improve kept him going through the recovery ordeal one step at a time, he said. “When they look at him now, it’s hard to think he was where he was July 20, 2010,” said his wife, Sylvia. “God sends help,” Larry said. “He sent me to the right hospital. I saw the right doctors, and we had great nurses, therapists and prayer warriors. I went to the Y[MCA] at the right time, which is a great faith-based organization. “All those helped me to be recognized, and we are all kind of spiritually led in what we do,” Larry added. “That’s what made
this whole thing work.” Barbara Hussey with Davis Family YMCA said the award was given to Belt for not only making a difference in his own life but also making a difference in the lives of others. She said Larry overcame the debilitating disease, inspiring other seniors to attain their fitness and wellness goals. The award honors SilverSneakers founder Mary Swanson’s father, who inspired his daughter to start the national fitness program, Hussey noted. Larry’s story begins with his return from a fishing trip in July 2010. “I came down with what I thought was a summer virus,” he recalled. He remembered the Saturday when he started feeling a painful burning and tingling feeling in his hands and feet. The following Monday, he was beginning to show signs of paralysis. The next morning, he was checked into The University of Tennessee Medical Center and a day later he was diagnosed with Guillian-Barre Syndrome. He explained Guillian-Barre is not a disease; rather it is a rare syndrome affecting the autoimmune system. The system attacks a virus and, after destroying the virus, it turns on the body’s nervous system, Larry explained. “We had never heard of this before,” Sylvia said. “We had just retired. That was not the retirement we envisioned.” Larry remained in intensive

care and life support for three weeks. “It was Sylvia, the family and a couple of pastors who helped me make the decision to accept life support,” he said. Larry remembered when he was taken off the life support he could not do anything but blink
his eyes. Larry was later transferred to the Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center, where he began therapy. At Patricia Neal, doctors told him it would take three years to walk again. Once released from the center, Larry underwent outpatient ther-
apy for six months, gradually improving. He eventually learned to feed himself and was moving around in an electric wheelchair. The following spring the therapist recommended he continue with therapy through exercise and See BELT on Page 8A
Family Affair offers senior information

Farragut area seniors, their families and caregivers can obtain practical information related to aging and its issues during an Aging: A Family Affair 2013 conference planned for 8:30 a.m.3:45 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 14, at Rothchild Conference Center, 8807 Kingston Pike, Knoxville. This will be the 29th year Knoxville-Knox County Comm-unity Action Committee Office on Aging has presented the conference, said Nancy Lofaro, aging services manager with CAC Office on Aging. “The conference came about because we are the Office on Aging for Knox County, we have
many different programs and we found there are more seniors in Knox County every year needing our services,” she said. “So this is a good way to provide -- in one setting and in one day – good, practical information they may need or their family members may need.” Lofaro noted the event started at a downtown church but outgrew the location. Last year, she said the event was hosted at Rothchild Conference Center for the first time. “The people liked it there,” she said. While the conference normally costs $40, people can save $5 by registering by Thursday, Oct. 31. “We try to keep this conference affordable for seniors, so we have
an early bird rate of $35 for the whole day,” Lofaro said. People can still take advantage of that rate if they call 865-5242786 Thursday, Oct. 31. Otherwise, they can mail in their registration at Knoxville-Knox County Council on Aging, P.O. Box 51650, Knoxville, TN 37950-1650. The event includes Bill Williams, former anchor at WBIR-TV, as the keynote speaker. Workshops, exhibits, a continental breakfast and lunch plusthe materials handed out during the workshops also are included “And, we always have door prizes at the end for people who want to stay for that,” Lofaro said.

Don’t end up with a puppy! Terry and I went to the beach on our anniversary (25 years) and while he was driving I suggested we play a game. “Is this gonna be some lady’s magazine deal?” he asked with Pam a sense of Young trepidaMake it tion. “No, I’ve Fun! been reading Deborah Nor-vel’s book on the power of thankfulness.” “So Deborah told you to do this?” “Nope, I thought this game up all by myself.” “Okay.” “So, I’ll tell you something I’m grateful to you for and then it’ll be your turn and you have to tell me something you’re grateful about me for and the guy who says the last thankfulness statement wins.” “What’ll he win?” “He’ll get taken out to dinner when we get to the beach.” We probably traded 15 thankful comments with each other and what was very interesting to me was how much I loved hearing his compliments for me and I couldn’t wait for the next one. I was telling my friend about
the game and she suggested we play it with our inner child! So I had a session with Nelly. (She’s my inner child.) Here’s what happened. “Hi Nelly.” “Hi.” “Since you already know what we’re gonna do, do you want to go first?” “No, you go first.” "Okay, let’s see… I’m so thankful I met you and that we have so much fun together.” “I’m thankful you’re always complementing me, like yesterday when you said, ‘I’m so proud of you for making breakfast when you wanted to go out to a restaurant.’” “I’m thankful you don’t argue when I say what we’re going to do and especially when I know you don’t want to, like when you wanted to buy new shoes for our class reunion and I said, ‘no one is going to look at your feet and our old heels only get worn about once a year and they look fine.’” “I’m thankful you let me play a lot.” “I’m thankful you remind me to play a lot.” “I’m thankful you know I’m not going to grow up, that I get to be a little girl forever.” “I’m thankful for that too. It’s because of you that I find pleasure in all the little things. Like I loved how you wanted to stay out on the beach and watch the sunset and every time a little breeze popped up, you noticed it and it
made you happy.” “I’m thankful there are a lot of little things to love. Like puppies. I want a puppy.” “I know. We can play with Joanna’s puppy.” “I want Joanna’s puppy.” “No, you can’t have it.” “Why?” “It’s Joeys.” “But she’s gonna get tired of it. Then can we have it?” “Nelly, I guess the thankfulness game is over for now. You can’t have the puppy, but I’m so thankful you love puppies!” That’s where our “thankfulness” session ended and it left me with a big smile on my face. I spend an hour in solitude every day and in that joyful time I focus my attention inward. My connection to God is within and the funniest thing; Nelly is there a great deal of the time. I have this sense she spends a lot more time with God while I’m off running around in this busy world of stuff. Why not take a little time today and have your own “thankfulness” session with your inner child? Just don’t end up with a puppy.

An estimated 300 people turned out Sunday, Sept. 29 for the Fourth Annual Picnic on the Pike, which took place on the grounds of farragutpress. Sponsored by the town of Farragut and farragutpress, the event featured live music from two local bands, The Chillbillies and BackTalk. People could bring their own lunch or buy their lunch from the food truck. The event started four years ago as a celebration of the Town’s 30th anniversary in 2010. Those who attended said they thought the Picnic was great.

Joeva Merrion’s work life has dramatically changed. She started Why Knot? Therapeutic Massage and Reflexology in April, but previously she worked for 30 years in the administrative world, she said. “The change is like night and day,” Merrion said. “The jobs that I’ve held in the past have been rather high stress. I’ve always chosen to work for smaller organizations, which usually entails taking on several different types of jobs, and because of that, you work long hours and you work pretty hard and not that I’m not working hard now, but it’s a different type of work because I’m at my own business. “I set my own pace, and I’m working with one person at a time, addressing their issues one at a time and don’t feel like I have to multi-task I guess as much as I used to,” she added. “So that I can really give my undivided attention to the person who’s on my table. And it’s a slower pace of life for me.” Merrion, a registered certified reflexologist and licensed massage therapist, runs the business out of her home in Farragut, she said. “I was in the administrative and accounting world until about a year ago, and I had experienced the loss of my father, and

he lived in Illinois,” she said. “So while I was driving back and forth and dealing with his illness and working a full-time job ... I started getting a massage on a weekly basis — that was my selfcare — and fell in love with massage.” Merrion quit her job and went to Tennessee School of Therapeutic Massage in August 2012, she said. “I had a passion for massage,”
she said. “It’s what I wanted to do for other people. It had improved the quality of my life so much by getting a regular massage that that’s what I wanted to do for others, help them improve the quality of their lives and their health.” The business is by appointment only. To schedule an appointment, call 865-385-8363. “Massage is basically the original medicine, and that’s because
it’s such a natural healing process,” Merrion said. “When you bump your leg or you bump your elbow, the first thing you do is rub it. So massage is a natural healing process. “It improves circulation. ... It improves digestion and it improves, certainly relieves, stress because it will engage the parasympathetic nervous system,” she added.

MARYVILLE — Bearden’s tumultuous season continued Friday evening at Jim Renfro Field as Maryville handed the Bulldogs t h e i r Maryville 51 fourth straight Bulldogs 0 loss in resounding fashion, 51-0. The Dawgs’ defense couldn’t find an answer for the Rebels fastpaced attack, and by the time they could stop to catch their breath, the score line read 21-0 with just under four minutes remaining in the first quarter. Senior quarterback John Garrett led the way for the Rebels, completing 10-of-14 passes for 183 yards and three touchdowns and ran for another. Veteren tailback Shawn Prevo also enjoyed a successful Senior Night, carrying the ball eight times for 113 yards and a score in the first half. The Bulldogs defense took the field on the opening possession, and by the time they had blinked, Maryville had scored in just 57 See BULLDOGS on Page 5B

The Lady Admirals Lady Admirals 3 will have to make a longer trip now that Morristown West 0 the tournament has moved from Chattanooga to Murfreesboro, but no one seems to mind that much.
“The popular opinion here is that Chattanooga is cursed,” Lady Ads’ senior midfielder Katie Beuerlein said after Farragut punched its ticket to the midstate with a 3-0 victory over Morristown West Saturday night, Oct. 26, at Farragut Soccer Stadium. “[Farragut] went there in 2004 and lost. “My sister was on that team and then we went the last two years and we lost.

KINGSPORT — A goal in the 27th minute from junior Taylor Bishop, who exhibited nice ball control before nailing a shot from about 20 yards out, looked to be enough for Hardin Valley Academy Saturday. With under 10 minutes to play in this Section 1-AAA showdown at Kingsport Dobyns-Bennett Oct. 26, the Dobyns-Bennett 2 L a d y Lady Hawks 1 Hawks’ first ever girls soccer state tourney berth was real enough to taste, still up 10. However, a 40-yard free kick goal — at a sharp angle to the left — was perfectly placed high into the net by KD-B’s Maggie Burkett in the 73rd minute. Less than five minutes into the first 10-minute non-sudden death overtime, a nice diagonal midfield pass to Lady Indian Shannon Stroud on the right side was converted from about 20 yards out.

Admirals dedicate crucial victory to teamate’s father ■ KEN LAY

With black jerseys and heavy hearts, the Farragut High School football team nabbed a crucial District 4AAA victory over William Blount Friday night, Oct. 25. And that was only part of the story for the Admirals, who overcame some selfinflicted adversity on the field in a 30-22 win over the Governors. Farragut (6-3 overall, 5-1 in the district) scored first on Carter Phillipy’s 42-yard field goal midway through the first quarter, The Ads, however, fell behind as the Govs (2-7, 15) closed the frame with a pair of unanswered touch-

Webb wins over Catholic in bitter rivalry ■
KEN LAY Correspondent
Five and counting. That’s where Webb School of Knoxville’s winning streak stands against rival Knoxville Catholic High School. In the latest chapter of the bitter rivalry, the Spartans used a potent running attack to nab a 34-7 victory over the Irish at Webb Thursday, Oct. 24. The Spartans (6-2) overcame a fumble and interception in the first half Spartans 34 and Webb c o a c h Irish 7 D a v i d Meske said nerves were a factor for his squad early. “We had won so many in a row [against Catholic],” Meske said. “There’s a lot of pressure on our kids. “They didn’t want to be the team to lose the game, so we had to get them to relax and just play football.” This group of Spartan seniors didn’t lose to Catholic (7-2) and for Webb running back Robby Strachan, this night was 13 years in the making. “I’ve been here since kindergarten so it’s been a 13-year run for me,” said Strachan, who rushed for 125 yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries, including a 4-yard run to give the Spartans a 7-0 lead with 8 minutes, 27 seconds remaining in the first quarter. “I had dreams of coming out here and winning this game in my senior year.” After Strachan, who also was successful on five of his six extra point attempts, scored the game’s opening touchdown, Webb sputtered on its next two possessions. The Spartans went three-and-out, lost a fumble and threw an interception before finally extending their advantage when Todd Kelly Jr. made the
score 14-0 with 2:51 remaining in the opening half. The win was special for Kelly Jr., a Tennessee Volunteer commitment. “It feels great and it’s a blessing for me to beat those guys four times,” said Kelly who finished with 120 yards Strachan and two scores on 18 carries. “If I would’ve lost this game, I would’ve definitely heard about it. “It feels great to beat your rival. This is the biggest game for us, other than the state championship. It’s always nice to beat your rival but our main goal is winning that gold ball [a state championship].” The Irish entered the game missing 10 starters, including junior quarterback Zac Jancek. Backup field general Luke Smith also was out against the Spartans. Jancek tore a ligament in his thumb against Scott County and Smith suffered a concussion in the same game. Junior running back Logan Lacey started under center and did complete 8-of-13 passes for 93 yards. He also rushed for 19 yards on 21 carries for KCHS, which engineered a long drive to start the third stanza. The drive, however, stalled when the Spartans made a stop on fourth down. Strachan said that was a turning point in the game. “That was big for us because it shifted the momentum back in our favor,” he said. “Catholic is a good team and they were able to come out and get some momentum because they made some
plays and that stop changed the momentum.” Catholic, which travels to Alcoa Friday night for a game that will determine the District 4-AA championship, had some chances but penalties and mistakes thwarted the Irish’s effort. “We just had too many mistakes,” KCHS first-year head coach Steve Matthews said. “We thought that we had a good game plan coming in. This is tough. “A lot of our problems on offense were self-inflicted.” Lacey shared his coach’s sentiments. See WEBB on Page 4B

Lady Ads fall short at state Correspondent
MURFREESBORO — The Farragut High School volleyball team had a short stay at the Class AAA State Tournament recently. The Lady Admirals (46-10) dropped two matches on Wednesday, Oct. 23. Farragut was swept by Ravenwood, which entered the tournament as the three-time defending champion, 25-19, 25-14, 25-15. The Lady Ads then dropped a five-set thriller to Kingsport Dobyns-Bennett 1925, 28-26, 23-25, 25-18, 15-11 at Middle Tennessee State University’s Murphy Center. Lady Ads head coach Susan Davidson acknowledged that her team had a difficult draw against Ravenwood, which lost the 2013 championship match to Brentwood Friday. “I know that three years in a row either Bearden or us, whoever came out here, had to play them,” Davidson said. “But you have to play them some time. “They were the three-time defending state champs and they’re a great team.”
Webb From page 3B
“We had the ball in the red zone three or four times and we had penalties,” he said. “We’ve just got to come in and play as a team. “We’ve got to go back to work.” After stopping the Irish on the inaugural drive of the second
A short stay at the Midstate didn’t dampen a magical season for Farragut, which won the District 4-AAA regular-season title after an unblemished run in the league. The Lady Admirals finished second to rival Bearden in the district’s postseason tournament before winning the Region 2-AAA title with victories over District 3-AAA Champion Karns and the Lady Bulldogs. The Lady Ads then breezed past Science Hill to make the eightteam state tournament field — where the season came to an abrupt end. “I have no regrets about our season and I’m proud of our kids for their effort,” Davidson said. “They gave us the best they had on that day and any time you end your season in Murfreesboro, it’s been a good season. “The girls are going to come back hungrier next year and a piece of our goals is to get back there next year. Of course, we have to take care of the other business first.” Farragut accomplished most of its goals with a young squad that featured only two seniors in Tessa Watson and Aditi
Rangnekar — both of whom were instrumental in the team’s success. “We’re going to miss them but we wish them all the best,” Davidson said. “We’ll miss their leadership. They really pulled this team together.” Watson, one of Farragut’s two setters, had a stellar performance against the Lady Indians in the Lady Admirals’ final match. She had 36 assists, 26 digs and scored 14 points in the five-set marathon. Junior setter Emma Milstead finished with 30 digs, 13 kills and 11 points. Raegan Grooms, another junior, had 22 digs, scored 19 points and finished with nine kills. Davidson and the Lady Ads are now focused on the 2014 season. “We’ve turned the page,” Davidson said. “Most of [the players] are taking this week off and then they’re going to take the opportunity to play on some of the great local club teams. “They’re going to continue to play the game, have fun and continue to sharpen their skills.”
half, the Spartans took control and gained chunks of yardage on the ground. Kelly and Strachan each had touchdown scampers in the third frame. Kelly made the score 21-0 with 3:05 left in the period. Strachan’s 63-yard scamper made it 27-0 a short time later. Strachan did miss the ensuing extra point.
“I was tired and I was kind of wobbling on that [kick],” he said. Matthew Melton, another Spartans’ running back, scored Webb’s final touchdown on a 60yard dash with 3:53 left in the game. Catholic’s Elijah Brown had a 7-yard run with 30.3 seconds left to help the Irish avert a shutout.

It was Dobyns-Bennett celebrating with a 2-1 overtime victory and a trip to Murfreesboro. “We had everyone play bad on the same day, everyone,” said HVA head coach Mike McLean, whose team finishes 16-3-4. “Our fifth place team in our district beat this team, handily. “I’m just frustrated,” he added. “We didn’t come to play. DobynsBennett, they wanted it more. They deserve to win.” “It was our best season of our [history], but we had goals to get on a bus and go to Murfreesboro. We knew this would be a tough place to play. Give it to DobynsBennett, they played well.” Among all key factors, “If we could have finished better we
would have won this game,” McLean said. “We had two chances where there was no one in the goal, and we hit it right to the keeper. It was our lack of ability to finish.” McLean said Dobyns-Bennett (16-2-3) “outplayed us in the second half and the overtimes. And we didn’t stick to our gameplan.” Hardin Valley played minus one of its starting forwards, as sophomore Taylor Shott was lost for the season during the playoffs with a torn ACL. While freshman starting forward Paige Hewitt played, “She was injured and wasn’t up to her capability,” McLean said. According to KD-B statistics, the Lady Indians led in shots-on-goal 20-17. Hardin Valley statistics weren’t readily available, but McLean did not dispute that figure.

seconds on four straight running plays capped off with a 1-yard touchdown by Prevo. The Dawgs’ offense went threeand-out on their first possession and the Rebels quickly struck again, with Garrett hitting Cody Carroll from 16 yards out to make it 14-0 Maryville. Bearden answered with backto-back first down runs by Xavier Johnson and Malachi Horton, but the Bulldogs stalled yet again and punted Maryville inside its own 10 yard line. Garrett didn’t seem to mind as the senior signal-caller raced 49 yards to the end zone to put the Rebels comfortably ahead 21-0 at the end of the first quarter. When the Bulldogs stacked the box to try and stop the run, Garrett made them pay with a 39-yard touchdown pass to a wide open Carroll. After a Caden Ryding field goal, the Rebels went into halftime comfortably ahead 31-0. Despite the best efforts of leading tackler Kole Matherly and fellow linebacker Griffin DeLong, the Bulldog defense couldn’t stop the Maryville machine, as the Rebels rolled up 249 yards on the ground in the first half. For the offense, season-long trends reared their ugly head once

semifinals last year.” The Lady Admirals (18-2-3) certainly didn’t feel cursed against the Lady Trojans (17-3). After a scoreless first 19-plus minutes, FHS took a 1-0 lead in the 20th minute when Beuerlein put the ball past Morristown West goalkeeper Erin Murphy and into the back of the net in the 20th minute. Senior Katie Cloud picked up an assist on the match’s first marker. From there, the Lady Admirals would dominate the game. While Murphy faced shot after shot from the potent Farragut attack, Lady Admirals senior metminder Maddie Strnad didn’t see a quality shot all night. The Lady Trojans had just one scoring chance early but the ball sailed wide. “I don’t remember them having a shot but we knew that they were a good team,” Farragut head coach Dennis Lindsay said. “But we played solid, especially in the first half. In the second half, we weren’t quite as solid but when you’re up 3-0, it’s hard to keep up the
again. Drives started promising with a few first downs, then stalled out with turnovers and missed opportunities. The Dawgs’ best chance to score came on the final drive of the game, as they found themselves at the Rebels’ 3yard line. Xavier Johnson rolled to his right and fired the ball toward the end
zone, only to see it picked off by Drake Martin and returned 98 yards the opposite direction, in a play the pretty well summed up the Bulldogs’ season. Although the lofty preseason expectations never came to fruition, there were some signs of promise, DeLong and sophomore running back Ch-ase Berry (who
got the start over Malachi Horton) both showed the ability to be impact players in 2014. “We’ve had a rough year,” DeLong said after the game. “But we’ve had some young players step up and execute, and I think that could help us next year with those guys stepping into a bigger role.” The Bulldogs travel to William
Blount htis Firday hoping to end their season on a high note and give them some momentum going into 2014. “We just need to keep our heads up,” DeLong said. “It hurts, I’m not going to lie, but we need to have a good week of practice and come to the game Friday with the right mindset.”
Admirals
the kickoff.” Farragut was down but not out. The Ads scored quickly on their first possession when Bryan Phillips connected with senior tight end Billy Williams on a 53-yard scoring strike to help the Admirals take the lead for good with 7:57 to go in the third quarter. “We’ve had that play all year and [offensive coordinator Rusty] Partin drew it up and called it,” Williams said. “William Blount really came in here and played us tough. “This was a big win for us and it was big for Brad because his dad
passed. “We played the game for Brad’s dad and that’s why we wore the black jerseys. I’m happy for Brad because he came in here and he practiced hard all Russell week.” Farragut clinched its fourth consecutive win and the playoff berth when Phillips hooked up with Aaron
Suadi for a 32-yard score. “This was a big win for us because now, we have a playoff berth,” Suadi said. “It was a killer not making the playoffs last year and I don’t ever want to feel like that again.” “[The touchdown pass] was just a well-thrown ball.” Farragut hosts Maryville (9-0, 6-0) Friday night, Nov. 1, and regardless of the outcome, the Ads have written a great gridiron story over the last month.
sneak made it 21-13 in the final seconds of the third quarter. The extra point was blocked. Hardin Valley held LC, then marched 75 yards to pull within two. Ferguson got loose on a screen pass down the left sideline for 49 yards to the Panthers 1. Ferguson scored two plays later with 6:57 left in the game.
“Offensively, I thought Ryan Ferguson made some big catches for us,” Jones said. “Chris Thomas made some nice catches. Jack DeFur had a big catch.” A twopoint pass to tie failed A 61-yard bomb down the right sideline from LC quarterback Mason Sharpe to Connor Walters made it 28-19 at the 5:42 mark.
The Hawks raced 80 yards quickly, with Thomas’s leaping 32-yard catch followed by DeFur going 45 yards down the left sideline the highlights. Jackson scored from 1 yard out with 4:52 to play. Hardin Valley held the Panthers and took over inside the LCHS 10 with 2:23 left.
position the ball. I just kicked it.” Cloud, Parchman and Beuerlein carried the offensive load on this night. While Farragut, struggled to find offense earlier this season, the Lady Admirals, have boasted a balanced attack during its 12-game winning streak. “It’s great to have different people step up,” Parchman said. Defensively, the Lady Ads have recorded 11 consecutive shutouts over the state’s toughest competition and that has Lindsay feeling confident about his team chances. “There are some good teams left but we’ve pretty much seen everybody who’s left, so I think we have a pretty good chance,” he said.
Cloud said that she hopes the third time will be the charm for Farragut on the big stage. “It feels good to be going back to the state tournament for the third year in a row,” she said. “We’re definitely hoping that the third time will be the charm but we’re focused and we’re just taking things one game at a time. “We were focused on this game because we knew that we had to win this one to get there.” Parchman said she’s going to the State Tournament to win for
her coach. “I want to win because this is our last shot,” Parchman said. “I really want to win this for coach Lindsay because he’s been here a long time and he deserves a state championship.” Beuerlein agreed. “Coach Lindsay really deserves a state championship because he works so hard for us,” she said.

The Governors made a two-point conversion to take a 22-16 lead. “That penalty was on me,” Courtney said. “You have 20 minutes at halftime and three more minutes to warm up. “But you have to be back on the field when that 20 minutes runs out.

it 21-7. The Hawks answered by going 65 yards to score, highlighted by three Nathan White completions totaling 39 yards plus a 16-yard Ryan Ferguson run from a direct snap. White’s 1-yard quarterback Morristown West’s only two losses of the 2013 came to Farragut in the final game of the regular season and to Kingsport DobynsBennett in the Region 1-AAA Championship match. Both those teams were headed to Murfreesboro as the Lady Indians knocked off Hardin Valley Academy in Saturday’s other sectional game. The Lady Ads took a 2-0 lead in the 30th minute on a tally by Cloud that was assisted by Beuerlein. The only drama of the match came when Cloud scored the Lady Ads’ third goal with 2.8 seconds remaining in the first half. Cloud, a senior midfielder, headed a corner kick into the Morristown West net. Senior Joanda Parchman had to rush to beat the clock on the set play. Parchman nailed the corner kick and Cloud scored to make the score 3-0. “All year, our coaches have talked about finishing plays and I was able to finish that one,” Cloud said. Parchman noted that she rushed the set piece. “I looked at the clock and I saw there was about 20 seconds left,” she said. “I really didn’t get a chance to

Getting your home ready for cold weather It's officially Fall in East Tennessee...time to get your home ready for cold weather! Here is a short checklist -- also known as a "Honey-Do-List": • Inspect and clean gutters and downspouts. Clogged gutters can lead to damaged exterior surfaces and water in your basement or crawl space.
• A home with air leaks around windows and doors is like a coat left unbuttoned! Gaps in caulk and weather stripping can account for 10% of your heating bills. • Drain and winterize outdoor faucets and irrigation systems. • Give your furnace a physicalo - once a year it's a good idea to
have your heating system inspected by a professional. Make sure your air filters are clean and pristine! • Check your fireplace for damage and hazards. For most people, the best option is to have your chimney system inspected See COLD on Page 9B
NEW CONSTRUCTION NEW FLOOR PLANS Local professional earns accredited staging Professional® (ASP®) designation The softening Real Estate market is increasing homeowner demands for tools to help bring a profit in the sale of their homes. ASP Home Staging has become one such tool. By Moser properly cleaning, decluttering and preparing a house before it is listed on the market, homeowners have a better chance of selling their home at or above list price. In a recent study conducted by Stagedhomes.com, of over 1000
homes, (55% Vacant, 45% occupied) across the United States and Canada, showed that homes that were prepared for sale by an Accredited Staging Professional (ASP®) were on the market 80% less time before selling than non ASP Staged Homes. And the average ASP Staged Home sold for more dollars depending upon the market, price range of the house and the neighborhood. Averages ran from 7.9 % more dollars to over 25% or more than non ASP Staged Homes. Dana Moser with Coldwell See MOSER on Page 9B

Chase for post season starting to take shape ■
KEN LAY
between the two West Knox County rivals. The Irish played without 10 starters who were out due to injury. Starting quarterback Zac Jancek missed the game with a thumb injury. Freshman backup Luke Smith was also out with a concussion. Running back Logan Lacey started at quarterback. He had eight completions for 93 yards. Elijah Brown had KCHS’s lone touchdown late. The Irish might’ve lost to the Spartans for a fifth consecutive time but Catholic (7-2 overall, 3-0 in District 4-AA) can win the district title with a victory at Alcoa Friday night. The Tornadoes (8-1, 3-0) trounced Maplewood 43-7 last week. Meanwhile at Farragut, the Ads put away a scrappy Governors squad (2-7 overall, 1-5 in District 4-AAA) but it wasn’t easy. Farragut (6-3, 5-1) took a 3-0 lead on Carter Phillipy’s first-quarter field goal but fell behind 14-3 by quarter’s end. The Admirals scored 13 unanswered points in the second frame to take a 16-14 lead by halftime. Tanner Thomas put the Ads up with a pair of TD runs in the frame before things got crazy after halftime.
Correspondent
As the chase for the farragutpress How the West Was Won Presented by 3 Minute Magic Carwash trophy enters its final week, the chase for the post season is starting to take shape. Farragut clinched a playoff spot with a 30-22 victory over William Blount. Knoxville Catholic lost to Webb 34-7 but the banged up Irish already had clinched a playoff spot. Bearden, which dropped a 51-0 decision to Maryville last week, will not make the playoffs as its nightmare season continued. Hardin Valley Academy which fell 35-25 at Lenoir City, still has hopes of making the playoffs. The Hawks must beat Heritage and will need help if they are to play past Week 10. Two-time defending Class 3A state champion Christian Academy of Knoxville notched a 42-7 non-district win over Livingston Academy at Warrior Stadium. The Warriors (3-6) will still likely get a chance to defending their state title with a road district win over hapless Kingston Friday night. Week 9 for local teams started Oct 24 when Catholic was routed by Webb in the showdown
Farragut took a 15-yard penalty for arriving to the field late and the Govs executed an onsides kick and retook the lead a short time later on a Reed Daniels touchdown run. Bryan Phillips put FHS ahead for good with a 53-yard scoring strike to senior tight end Billy Williams. Phillips also connected with Aaron Suadi for a 32-yard score in the fourth quarter. Farragut hosts Maryville Friday. The Rebels (9-0, 5-0) nabbed a 510 win at home over Bearden Friday night. Not much has gone right for the Bulldogs (2-7, 2-4) this season and the trip to Maryville packed more hard knocks for Bearden. The Bulldogs had a chance to score in the final minute of the game but Maryville’s Drake Martin intercepted a pass from Xavier Johnson on the Rebels’ 2yard line and promptly returned it for a score. Johnson had 78 rushing yards for Bearden, which travels to William Blount this week. Meanwhile, the Hawks’ postseason chances took a hit Friday when Hardin Valley dropped a 3525 district game on Senior Night at Lenoir City. The Panthers capitalized on special teams mistakes by HVA (45, 2-4). The Hawks muffed two

punts and missed three extra points. Lenoir City (5-4, 3-3) also blocked a Hardin Valley field goal. The Hawks play at Heritage (1-8, 0-6) this week and a win would keep some faint playoffs hopes alive. At CAK, the Warriors scored the first 21 points in their game against Livingston Academy (2-7). Freshman quarterback Cole Smith threw three touchdown passes to Whitaker Cunningham and set the tone for the entire game. The Warriors utilized a bal-
anced offensive attack. Running back Drew Jost had three touchdown runs and rushed for 222 yards. The fast start helped CAK overcome Smith’s six interceptions, one of which was returned for Livingston’s lone touchdowns. The Warriors likely will clinch a playoff berth with a win at Kingston this week. The Yellow Jackets (0-9 overall, 0-3 in District 4-AA) lost to Sweetwater last week.
