Town, Cool Sports team to offer Skate Date ■

ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com

Farragut area residents will have an opportunity to take to the ice as the town of Farragut and Cool Sports have teamed to bring ice skating to the masses. Farragut Skate Date will take place from 4 to 6 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 18, at Cool Sports, located at 110 S. Watt Road. The town of Farragut and Cool

Sports “are partnering to put on this event,” Chelsey Riemann, Town public relations coordinator, said. “We just started this with Cool Sports as a way to get kids and adults active in the winter months,” Riemann said. Nadia Kogeler, general manager at Cool Sports, said admission for two people for the event is $14. “That includes your skate

rental, so we encourage everybody to bring a friend,” Kogeler said. “Otherwise it’s $7 a person.” The event also will have free ice skating lessons, Kogeler said. “... We’ll have two different time slots with Cool Sports professionals out there teaching ice skating.” The Farragut Skate Date is an annual event, she said. This year is its fourth year.

“It’s a lot of fun,” Kogeler said. “We usually have a really good busy session, a good crowd, and we’ll have music playing and people get to skate, have fun. Concessions will be open.” She encouraged people thinking of going to the event to do so. “It’s to promote healthy living and an active lifestyle, so we do that,” she said. “And if you’re nervous of skating, we have the free ice skating lessons like I

FHS Hall of Fame slated for Feb. 1 ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

With a tough act to follow after inducting 16 former Farragut High School star players and coaches into last year’s inaugural hall of fame class, this year’s key number is nine. Second Annual Farragut High School Athletic Hall of Fame Banquet and Induction Ceremony features eight inductees, six star players and two championship coaches, plus one special award winner. Event begins at 6 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 1, in FHS Commons. “With last year being the first one, we thought it was a great event, a huge success,” Seth Smith, FHS athletic director, said. “I thought the feedback was positive. “The long, storied athletic history of Farragut High School is one that needs to be

While Old Stage Road improvements are winding up roughly two months behind the original construction deadline, a roughly six-month delay constructing Watt Road extension now has a completion deadline of May 30. Why the delay? “All utilities were supposed to be out of the way by the end of December [2012],” said Mark McKinnon, co-owner of McKinnon Construction Co., LLC, of Loudon, project contractor with a low bid of $2.1 million in February 2013. With a November 15, 2013, deadline to have both projects completed, McKinnon said utility delays “were six months,” cutting into his company’s time to complete the project. “We were shut down, we couldn’t do anything.” While much above average rainfall has made delays worse during 2013 according to McKinnon, he did not blame Lenoir City Utilities Board or any other “delayed” utility because of “reimbursement” concerns. He questioned if TDOT would reimburse a utility that begins work on a road project before it was let to bid, only to have TDOT delay the project indefinitely and leave the utility with equipment and manpower expenses. However, Mark Nagi, TDOT Region I Community Relations officer, said in an e-mailed statement: “… LCUB’s facilities were located entirely on private easement, making their utility relocation 100 percent reimbursable regardless of when the project was let to construction.” Moreover, Mitch Ledbetter, LCUB manager of technical services and utility liaison with TDOT, said about the December 2012 utility relocation date, “That’s the first I’ve heard

The town of Farragut received good news on its recent audit for financial statements that ended June 30. “Once again, we are pleased we could present an unqualified opinion on the financial statements,” auditor Mark Lund, with Ingram, Overhold and Bean, P.C., of Alcoa, told Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen. “This is the highest opinion that can be issued on a set of financial statements. “Basically, it says that the financial records fairly represent the financial position and governmental activities of the Town for the year ending June 30, 2013,” the auditor said. “What that opinion right there covers is just a section of the financial statements. “We discovered no deficiencies with controls,” Lund said. Overall, there is an increase in revenues from sales tax revenues. This is the first time there has been such an increase since the economic decline three or four years ago, he noted. Also, Lund said from 2012 to 2013, the net position of the Town went from $43,812,000 to $46,806,000. He also noted there is an improvement in the Town’s assets in regard to road improvement projects in parks and on sidewalks. On another matter, the Board heard from Harry Tucker, an Everett Road homeowner, who asked the Board to reconsider putting in an 8-foot walking trail along the road when it completes improvements on the road. Tucker said the plans for improvements on that road call for sidewalks and the walking

said with our professionals, so it’s definitely a great time, a cheap date, to come out and try a new activity.” The Town will have a giveaway to the first 150 attendees at the event, Riemann said. “Cool Sports also will be giving away a pair of tickets to a Knoxville Ice Bears game, so if you attend, you can be entered to

trail. “That’s overkill,” Tucker said. He noted he is not against the road being improved but said having both the sidewalks and walking trail would make the road so wide it would wipe out the evergreens along Everett Road. “No one wants a walking trail along that side of the road,” he said. Town administrator David Smoak said the improvements are already in the budget for next fiscal year. Alderman Bob Markli said he thinks eliminating the walking trail makes sense but added that road is a little narrow. “I think a compromise is in order,” he said. He also noted there is the problem of trying to connect walking trails in the Town. Smoak said the engineers currently are working on the road improvements. “It’s not going to happen overnight, but it will happen,” he

said. “We have accepted the plan,” Vice Mayor Dot LaMarche said. “We already made that decision.” Alderman Jeff Elliott advised Tucker and other homeowners to be patient with the improvement plan. “Eventually, it [the walking trail] will be connected [with the other trails],” he said. In other matters, the Board heard from The University of Tennessee interns Natalie Graham and Jesse Weher, who studied the Town’s energy usage. “This building is 20 years old,” Weher said. “There are problems.” The interns said the Town could save money in the following ways: • Changing staff’s behaviors, such as wearing sweaters or turning off lights in rooms; • Replacing low-flow aerators on water faucets; • Installing occupancy sensor programs on thermostats; • Upgrading lighting and heating, ventilation and air conditioning.

corrections: • The start date for the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance at Farragut Town Hall was listed incorrectly in an article appearing in the Thursday, Jan. 2, issue of farragutpress. The correct date is Friday, Jan. 31. We regret the error and any inconvenience it may have caused.

Staying active keeps you healthy.” The Farragut Skate Date serves as a kickoff to the Winter Olympics season, she said. “It’s a cool way to stay active indoors different from what people are used to, and I’d also say that the Winter Olympics, they’re coming up in February,” she said. “And so we’re going to be seeing figure skating and hockey and curling and things like that in the Winter Olympics, and it’s just kind of like a nice kickoff to that.”

about it.” Nagi stated in another e-mail, “The first phase of work to widen Old Stage Road was delayed by utility relocation efforts. On Feb. 20, 2013, TDOT held a meeting with the contractor and all affected utilities to plan and prioritize relocation efforts. Lenoir City Utility Board began relocation efforts first in late February 2013 and was followed by Charter and TDS in that order. Utilities were not relocated until July 2013.” While McKinnon praised all utilities for “doing exactly what they said” during that February meeting, he added, “We did not

get the job in our hands, with all utilities and everything out of the way, until Aug. 4.” According to McKinnon, utility relocation delays off Old Stage prevented his company from going ahead with Watt Road extension construction because “excavation at Old Stage, that dirt has to come to Watt Road.” However, moving that dirt was held up because a necessary retaining wall adjacent to the Icearium “couldn’t be built because you had electricity under where the footing goes.” The wall was finally completed in June. By December 2013, Old Stage Road portion of the project was “basically done,” McKinnon said.

Town, Bricks 4 Kidz host Kidz Night Out Jan. 17 ■

TAMMY CHEEK tcheek@farragutpress.com

Farragut children ages 5 through 13 have an opportunity to learn while they play during a Kidz Night Out. The town of Farragut, in conjunction with Bricks 4 Kidz, is

offering the Kidz Night Out from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday, Jan. 17, in the Community Room of Farragut Town Hall, Chelsey Riemann, the Town’s public relations coordinator, said. “Using theme-based project kits designed by engineers and architects, Bricks 4 Kidz reinforces

STEM [science, technology, engineering and mathematics] principles while enhancing self-esteem, fine motor skills and classroom lessons, such as organization and following directions,” Riemann said. Bricks 4 Kidz of Knoxville provides the program while the Town Hall offers the space.

“Bricks 4 Kids of Knoxville approached us about doing it,” Riemann said. “The Town Hall offers a wide variety of program and classes each quarter. [This program is] a new thing for us. We provide it as another fun thing for kids, and it provides an evening alone for parents.”

“We will have a variety of activities,” said Chris Howard, who coowns Bricks 4 Kids of Knoxville with his wife, Maria. “We will have a Bricks 4 Kidz model builds, where we have exclusive models Bricks 4 Kidz has See KIDZ on Page 6A

Farragut Arts Council is seeking artists to take part in a juried open art show, Alchemy: The Magic of Art and Flowers. “It will be a beautiful show,” Sue Stuhl, Town Parks and Leisure Services director, said. Stuhl added the art and flowers from members of Dixie Highway Garden Club are being combined to complement one another. The show, scheduled for Friday and Saturday, May 16-17, is being held in conjunction with the garden club, Chelsey Riemann, Town public relations coordinator, said. Farragut Arts Council will accept art works, applications and fees from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 9, and from 8 a.m. to noon Friday, Jan. 10, at the Town Hall. “No artwork and applications will be accepted prior to Jan. 9,” Riemann said. They will then be juried Saturday, Jan. 11, in the community room, Stuhl said. During that time, Dixie Lee Garden Club members will choose pieces to go with their flowers. The art will be available for pickup from 5 to 8 p.m. that Saturday and from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 12. See FAC on Page 8A

While town of Farragut’s Outdoor Classroom won’t become a reality until late this spring at the earliest, two schools already have signed up to use the planned learning area off Campbell Station Road beside Farragut High School’s western exitentrance. Meanwhile, Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation has awarded the Town a “Green Development Grant” of $19,300. That will help fund a roughly 1,500-gallon cistern to catch rainwater coming off a 20-by-40-foot shelter, Jason Scott, Town stormwater coordinator, said. “I’d say that the water quality element is probably equally as significant on the site as is the outdoor classroom component,” Scott added. “The trail system running through it, the primary system, is going to be a pervious surface. The parking area’s going to be a pervious surface. There’s going to be a large rain garden. … There’s going to be a tremendous investment in the water quality demon-

As for those looking to utilize the 1.2-acre classroom, “We’ve already started working on getting proposals to utilize the space,” Scott said. “… At our last Stormwater Advisory Committee meeting we approved two projects that are going to be done through Farragut High School and one project that’s going to be done through Greenway School. “For Greenway School, they’re

looking at installing a rain garden and doing some strategic planting,” Scott added. Farragut High School’s Science department, specifically its botany and zoology classes, are signed up according to Scott. That’s in addition to FHS Horticulture Club. “One of the Farragut High School classes, I believe, is looking to use some of the planters that are going to be on the facility to test out different types of native grasses,” Scott said. “And I feel like they’re also looking to do, like, edible plantings. Overall, “Different projects are going to be for different lengths of time,” Scott added. “… If [projects] reached a point of such high demand we might have to put time limits on it. But right now we’re leaving it open-ended.”

The other benefit is “for mom and dad to have an evening out while we take care of the kids,” Howard said. The cost is $30 for the first child and $25 for each additional child.

That cost includes a make-yourown mini-figure for each child. All materials will be provided. The registration and payment deadline is Wednesday, Jan. 15.

Should I be concerned about hip dysplasia Q: Ever since I got my German Shepherd, Betsy, I have been warned about hip dysplasia. She seems to walk and run just fine, and has plenty of energy. Should I be concerned? Stephanie T . A . , Myers Farragut Ask A: Hip the Vet dysplasia is a common condition in large breed dogs. You may or may not need to be concerned, but pet owners should be aware and educated about this disease. The hip joint is a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ball and socket jointâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Dogs affected with hip dysplasia have bone abnormalities of the head of the femur (â&#x20AC;&#x2122;ballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;) or the acetabulum of the pelvic bone (â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;socketâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;), and often both. When the femoral head and/or acetabulum is flattened and abnormally shaped,

the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; does not properly fit into the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;socketâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, creating an unstable joint. Over time, cartilage is worn away, and osteoarthritis forms. Affected patients typically walk with a characteristic swaying motion. Some dogs will have pain on extension of the rear legs, and occasionally a popping motion can be felt. There are varying degrees of hip dysplasia, thus pets can have varying degrees of lameness and pain. If the affected pet is overweight, the clinical signs are usually exacerbated. Although there are signs that a veterinarian looks for during the physical exam, xrays are used to confirm the suspicion of dysplasia. If the dog is painful, sedation may be needed for xrays. Hip dysplasia is a genetic condition, and many breeders screen their dogs for dysplasia. Nutrition and dietary factors have also been implicated in the disease, as large breed puppies grow so fast during the first 6 months. The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;large breed puppyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; diets are great for proper growth, not allowing puppies to get too heavy too fast, as

Have fun being responsible I am a reformed slob. I made the decision to get organized on June 16, 1977. I was 35. I learned a lot through that transformation. The most important of which was to understand that before I did one thing to organize my chaotic life, I was alright just Pam the way I Young was. That Make it backed-up laundry didFun! nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make me a bad person. That an unmade bed and a sink full of dirty dishes didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t love my family or my home. That having to re-inoculate the children because I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find their medical records when we moved to a new town didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean I was a bad mother. My challenge to change my ways came from a deep desire to have more fun; to be able to play guiltfree and to feel the freedom of taking care of the routine and mundane tasks that make a household run smoothly, so my family and I could really enjoy this delicious thing called life. My motive to get organized was to have more free time to play. I think being organized or disorganized is ultimately a choice but I also think we each have a natural proclivity to be either. My mom was born organized. My dad was the donor of my disorganized gene. I had three children and two received my penchant for mess and one was washing her toys when she was 18 months old. Once I asked her if she wanted a doll house for Christmas and she replied, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh Mom, it would be just be one more thing to keep clean.â&#x20AC;? You know where you fall on the scale of order: one is a Martha Stewart without a staff and ten is the person who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dust or vacuum because she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have surfaces. I discovered a little organization goes a long way. My mom used a Girl

Scout calendar that she looked at every day and a watch that she looked at every hour and a clean 8x11 inch sheet of paper daily for her â&#x20AC;&#x153;to doâ&#x20AC;? list. Everything ran smoothly and I remember her saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we get our chores done by 10:00 we can go play.â&#x20AC;? And play we did. Mom made being organized look so easy; which it was because she never let anything pile up. She had a natural ethic that she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to have fun until her work was done. She let the â&#x20AC;&#x153;carrotâ&#x20AC;? of fun hang over her. For me as a wife and mother I got overwhelmed and buried as the responsibilities of motherhood and a bad marriage sapped my energy. My husband (we divorced when I got organized) and I fought every day over the mess. I felt like a loser, a failure and an embarrassment to my family until it struck me that feeling like a failure was not the truth about me, and that until I turned that thought around I was stuck. I knew better, but in the chaos I had just forgotten. That was my turning point. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allow anyone to cause you to doubt your ability to succeed. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made a decision to get organized keep it a secret so you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get negative feedback you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need. Get to know your inner child for she is that part of you that needs your love and attention. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the part of you that wants to play and if you can set a rule that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to play until your work is done, you can get the cooperation of your inner child, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find that you will make progress at being organized. One of the beer commercials I just watched during the Super Bowl has a motto: Have fun, be responsible. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to change that (since I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drink beer) to: Have fun being responsible.

Arts Council, in the meantime, started its Bookfest For Children event and has been concentrating on that event.â&#x20AC;? She said the council is now at the point it can do both of these events, and it received an increase in its budget to be able to sponsor the art and flower show. Riemann said the garden club chose the theme and explained Alchemy was a chemical science in the middle ages. Its goal was to change ordinary metals into gold.

Stuhl said this is the first time in eight years the Arts Council has done such a show. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a Farragut Arts Council special event and they have only done it twice, once in 2001 and once in 2005,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a very time-consuming event and the

this can also be a contributing factor. Protein and/or calcium supplements are not necessary for puppies, and can actually lead to abnormal bone growth. Treatment of hip dysplasia falls in to two categories: medical or surgical. Medical therapy is based on pain relief and can includes anti-inflammatories, joint supplements, and physical therapy. Surgically, there are several different procedures developed for dys-

plasia, based on the age of the pet and severity of disease. Whether a pet is a candidate for medical or surgical treatment is based on many factors, including the age at diagnosis, the amount of discomfort that the pet is experiencing, if the pet has an active or more sedate lifestyle, and cost. If the pet is overweight, a weight loss plan needs to be initiated, regardless of treatment plan. It is important for pet owners to

know about common conditions that could affect their particular pet, including breed predilections. If you feel that your pet is having discomfort or lameness, schedule an appointment with your veterinarian. If you have concerns regarding the dental health of your pet, talk to your veterinarian, or email lcac@lenoircityanimalclinic.com

‘Repeats’ stores have common bond ■

ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com

Chic Repeats and Repeats Galore are like sister stores. They are both consignment shops, next door to each other, only separated by a door that’s left open between the two stores. Debbie Loughrey, owner of Chic Repeats, called her business an upscale women’s consignment boutique. “We have everything from shoes to purses to scarves to jewelry, formals, sportswear, jackets,” she said. “I mean we carry everything, every type of women’s clothing we carry here, with all the extra accessories.” The offerings at Chic Repeats, located at 10965 Kingston Pike, mostly are designer brand names, she said. “People bring their gently used clothing,” she said. “... They bring them in here, and I sell them for them. ... When an item is sold, a consignor gets a percentage of the selling price.” Consignors get 60 days to sell an item at both stores. Loughrey has owned Chic Repeats for more than two years, she said. “I’ve always been interested in fashion and kind of had a flair for it,” she said. Sally Andres provides yet another link between Chic Repeats and Repeats Galore. She was the original owner of both. For more information about Chic Repeats, call 865-675-6880. Repeats Galore, located at 10963 Kingston Pike, celebrated its first anniversary in October. The business is under new ownership, with Jill Jordan buying it from Andres, Jordan said. Jordan’s first day at the business was Nov. 1, she said. Repeats Galore specializes in women’s petite clothing, men’s clothing and home goods. “Petite only means it has to do with your height, not your

weight,” she said. The shop has women’s petites that vary in size from extra small to extra large, she said. Women’s petites that the store offers are for women that are 5-foot-4 and under for the most part, she said. Home goods offered range “from sofas and chairs and tables to paintings, kitchenware, plate

sets, bedding. We have some antiques.” For Jordan, owning her own business is a dream come true. “I have wanted to own my own business for 20 years,” she said. “It’s that one thing that’s kept me awake at night literally just dreaming of owning my own place. It’s driven me crazy. And I

just always wanted to know if I could make a living doing what I actually enjoyed. ... Had just about given up on anything coming along that’s not an hour away — it needed to be close enough — when this came up for sale.” For more information about Repeats Galore, call 865-675-7222.

Admirals sweep Panthers ■

KEN LAY Correspondent

The Farragut High School basketball teams opened the 2014 portion of their schedules with a sweep of Lenoir City Friday night, Jan. 3, at Lynn E. Sexton Gymnasium. The Admirals routed the Panthers 75-53 while the Lady Ads prevailed 48-31 over the Lady Panthers. The Farragut boys extended their winning streak to two games against Admirals 75 t h e Panthers 53 Panthers Friday night. The Ads, who led 34-30 at halftime, blew things open with a big second half. Farragut head coach Chris Cool is now hoping that the win over the Panthers signals the end to the Admirals’ early-season struggles. “For whatever reason, we have to go through ups, downs and pain,” Cool said after his team improved to 6-9 overall and 3-2 in District 4-AAA. “We have to reach the point where we’re fed up with losing and I think we’ve finally reached that point. “Our seniors finally stepped up

tonight.” The Ads, who led throughout the contest, got a big game from senior guard Cameron Turner, who finished with a game-high 22 points while senior center Billy Williams finished with 18 for Farragut, which led 52-41 after three quarters. While those two players provided the offensive punch for FHS, it was the defense that stole the show. Guards Keegan McGuire and Matt Odom had the tall order of defending Lady Admirals 48 D y l a n Lady Panthers 31 Brewster, Lenoir City’s top scorer. The Farragut duo all but shut down Brewster, who scores points in bunches. He, however, had just nine points on this night. “We made a conscious effort to contain Brewster and I thought Matt and Keegan did a great job on him,” Cool said. “He had nine points and he usually scores about 20 or 30.” In addition to their stellar defense, Odom and McGuire also provided some clutch buckets.

A red-hot freshman goalkeeper plus outstanding defense, the two biggest reasons why BeardenKarns’ hockey team claimed its second win of the season. A shutout victory, 2-0, against Knoxville Knights opened play in Sixth Annual Knoxville High School Hockey Hoe Down Tournament (12 teams) Friday afternoon, Jan. 3, in the Icearium.

Freshman goalie Braden Ross was aided by Bulldog defenders Sean Doyle, Jake Foard, Nick McGregor and Jimmy Friedle in pitching the shutout. “I think Ice Dawgs 2 Braden p r e t t y Knoxville Knights 0 m u c h saved our game, he had four or five saves that could have went into the net. I thought our defense played really well, I thought they stepped up when they needed to

and took away a lot of shot opportunities,” said Bulldogs acting head coach Tom Qualkenbush, whose team won its second game of the season. It ended tourney play with a 1-2 record. “The defense was great. I’d get a rebound or two back then they’d clear it out,” said Ross, who stopped 21 shots, as BeardenKarns actually was out-shot 21-17. “Especially to get a shutout like See ICE DAWGS on Page 3B

Given the level of talent assembled during Sixth Annual Knoxville High School Hockey Hoe Down Tournament at the Icearium, grabbing just one win was an accomplishment for Farragut and other Knox area teams. Metropolitan Nashville’s Music City Marauders, a team assembling some of that city’s top high school

talent from Ravenwood, Brentwood and Franklin high schools — which has by far the state’s largest youth hockey program — already had won a tournament in Indianapolis without losing. They did the same in Farragut Friday through Sunday, Jan. 3-5.

Admirals unable to defend title ■ KEN LAY

Correspondent

It was a long weekend for three area local high school hockey clubs at the sixth annual Hockey Hoe Down Friday – Sunday, Jan. 3 – 5. But the last two tournament champions were able to salvage victories and play the role of spoiler Saturday night at the Icearium. Farragut, which won the tournament in 2013, notched a 6-1 victory over Station Camp-Beech and the loss sent the Bison home. The Knoxville Warriors, the 2012 champions, eliminated the North Mississippi Monarchs with a 6-0 win in the final round of pool play. The results of those games meant Father Ryan 6 that the Ice Admirals 1 WinstonSalem Ice Hawks and the Music City Monarchs joined Father Ryan and top-seeded Hendersonville in Sunday’s semifinals. Father Ryan is no stranger to the tournament’s final day. The Irish lost in the championship game in each of the last five years. “We’ve finished second five years in a row and the joke with [tournament director] Scott [Ingmand] is that he’s going to go ahead and engrave the secondplace plaque for us,” Father Ryan coach Walt Wasyliu said. “We come to this tournament every year to get our legs back. “I’m not really worried about winning the tournament. We’re concerned about getting better as a team. We have a two-week holiday break. We come here to play good competition before we get back into the league.” Wasyliu may not covet the tournament title but his Irish squad opened the tournament with a 6-1 over the Admirals late Friday afternoon and the win netted Father Ryan some sweet revenge. “It was good to beat them,” said

Hendersonville was locked in a 1-1 tie with the Ice Dawgs thanks to the effort of goaltender Braden Ross, who made some stellar saves. Hendersonville coach Rob Fitzpatrick was impressed with Ross. “He’s a great player,” Fitzpatrick said. “Early, he was making some great saves. “They were a good team. The competition in this tournament is great and we’ll be back because everyone is guaranteed three games.” Bearden/Karns went 1-2 over the weekend. The Ice Dawgs beat the Knoxville Knights 2-0 in the first game of the tournament but lost 2-1 to Franklin/Oakland early Saturday morning. Ross said that he was looking for a better showing. “I thought we could’ve beaten

Franklin,” he said. “We should’ve beaten them but this tournament showed us what was out there.” The Ice Dawgs might not have advanced to the final day but assistant coach Tom Qualkenbush was happy because his team scored two goals against Hendersonville, which beat the Knights 4-0 and defeated Franklin/Oakland 7-1. “We scored two goals against them and we were the only team to do that,” said Qualkenbush, who coached the team while Stu Bachleda was on vacation. While Hendersonville and Father Ryan left the rink knowing that they had advanced, WinstonSalem and the Music City Marauders had to wait until the end of pool play to learn their fates. The Marauders beat Owensboro in the final game to advance. Winston-Salem learned its fate after Farragut knocked off Station Camp-Beech 6-1 Saturday night. The Ads lost to the Irish and the Ice Hawks. Farragut, however, was able to eliminate the Bison with Saturday night’s victory. Felix Bjurstrom had a hat trick for FHS in its finale. Gavin Gauld, Austin Scheidt and Harley

City bounced Winston-Salem Ice Hawks 5-0 during Hoe Down’s title game Sunday afternoon (38-13 shots-on-goal edge).

trict. “This was a hard-fought game and it wasn’t safe until the last minute of the game. “It was a close game. We were up two at halftime.” The Bulldogs managed to open a 39-30 by the end of the third quarter of this defensive struggle. Graham led all scorers and was the only Bearden player to post double figures in the scoring column. Austin Duncan had six points and center Sam Phillips finished with five for Bearden, which hosted Maryville Tuesday (results were unavailable at press time).

Information, communication was outstanding. Drinks in the locker room. Facilities.

The 47-42 loss to the Lady Mountaineers snapped Bearden’s 12-game winning streak. The Lady Bulldogs (15-2, 4-1) held a 24-18 lead at halftime before the Lady Mountaineers (18-1, 4-1) stormed back and used a big second half to claim its first win over Bearden in some time.

Intensity, defense doom HVA ■

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

Ironically, a showdown of District 4-AAA unbeatens came down to a lack of intensity, until it was too late, and poor defensive communication. Hardin Valley Academy’s boys couldn’t Rebels 70 hold a 1413 first Hawks 50 quarter lead, as Maryville’s offensive execution and shooting touch heated up in the second half en route to a 70-50 victory at MHS Friday evening, Jan. 3. The Hawks lost for the first time in district (4-1), while falling to 95 overall despite game-high 24 points from senior post Zak Carter. Wing Blaine Shockley

Gorlewski also scored for the Admirals. “We knew that they had to have 4 points to get to the semifinals and they didn’t get any,” Bjurstrom said. “It was good to

Admirals From page 2B

Odom scored 10 points and McGuire scored eight key points to keep the Panthers (5-11, 1-4) at bay. Brewster had five of his nine points early in the fourth quarter as LCHS made one more push to get back into the game. The Admirals kept him in check the rest of the night. “When he had those points early in the fourth quarter, I think they thought we were going to give up,”

added 12 for HVA, while the Rebels (12-4, 5-0) were led in scoring by Isaac Edmiston (22) and John Garrett (17). “We don’t have the intensity we used to have. We have got to get that intensity back,” said HVA head coach Keith Galloway, whose team trailed 34-24 at halftime and never got Lady Rebels 65 closer than nine Lady Hawks 40 points in the third quarter. Maryville zoomed ahead 50-35 after three and never looked back. Carter said, “I just don’t think we were mentally prepared coming into the game. That’s kind of been our problem all Christmas break.” As for defense, “It’s just a matter of being able to guard their sets the way that we coach them to guard

them,” Galloway added. “… We need to all be on the same page, and we weren’t. It’s vitally important to communicate defensively, especially against a team that executes as well as they do, and we just didn’t do that tonight.” Despite the lack of intensity, “We didn’t quit,” Galloway said. “The intensity we brought in the fourth quarter tonight has got to be the intensity that’s there the whole game.” Meanwhile, the HVA girls (6-8, 1-4 after the game) were victimized by early turnovers converted into points, as Maryville’s Lady Rebels (11-4, 4-1) breezed to a 6540 victory. Senior guard Katie Smartt was the only HVA player in double figures, scoring 14. Maryville guard Kayla Tillie led all scorers with 18.

close out the tournament with a win and knock them out. “We knew they were a good team and it was nice to stop them.” Farragut coach Rob Despins was pleased with his squad’s final game. “We didn’t play well [Friday] and we didn’t really play well this morning,” he said. “You can’t win

it every year. “Felix was sick tonight but he was able play with energy and that’s an athlete.” Farragut wasn’t the only team to play spoiler Saturday night. The Knoxville Warriors eliminated North Mississippi with a 6-0 victory.

Williams said. “But we didn’t.” “We play hard every night and now we’re really starting to play as a team and we’re getting ‘W’s.’ Our plan was to attack Brewster and we shut him down.” Turner said the win was a confidence builder for the Admirals. “We’re not going to overlook anybody but we have some confidence right now,” he said. “We’ve learned to keep our heads up.” Like the Ads, the Lady Admirals used a big second half against Lenoir City (7-6, 0-5). Farragut (14-1, 5-0) opened an

18-5 lead midway through the second quarter only to see the Lady Panthers storm back and use a 130 run to tie the game at 18 by halftime. “They changed defenses,” Farragut head coach Jason Mayfield said of LCHS. “They went from a press to a zone. We might have had one turnover against the press and nine against the zone. “I can’t figure that one out. We had too many costly turnovers. We go through those lapses sometimes.”
