Thank You Beth Bouldin for bringing this to my attention! I remember the day a while back, that Allen Worrell was heading out of the office π’ and heading to the School π« to work on a feature story.
It turns out that last night one of the local news stations took the time to create a piece on the local Kiddos and there teachers. Great news that a TV πΊ Station is still willing to do a human interest story and even better that involved young ones from The Hill !!!
Thank You Beth and Thank You π to the educators that made this possible β€.
Congratulations πππ to the Students who were featured and kudos to the dedication to your kraft !
Friday Night π, Vickey Ritchie gathered up some of the Carroll County Special Olympics Basketball π players and headed up to the Men’s ODAC tournament where they played hoops during one of the breaks !
While up in the Star π City, they snuck by Sam’s to stock up on food and drinks for the Day long event being played Sunday at Virginia Tech.
Up the interstate, down the interstate, up the interstate, the wheels on the Bus π go round and round might be appropriate !

Morning π BrewThe official calendar for the School is blank but……
Alyssa Ervin and Furman University is guaranteed at least one post season tournament game on Thursday in Ashville but they are set to close out the regular season today at home.
Meanwhile, the Smoot Brothers would appear to have concluded its season just a short time ago. Information about the Flying Eagles is a little hard to come by at times but we do are best.
On Saturday afternoon and evening, the four teams that we have spent time around for the past 90 days are scheduled to play each other. This is fitting for our last day here.
2pm for the Women in St George and 630pm for the Men in Cedar City
10am – MT – First Pitch for Day 3 of the Beehive Classic Softball Tournament at Utah Tech. Four games slated again today. Also at 10am MT, the Blue Devils and Cavaliers Men play for the #1 seed in the upcoming ACC Tournament.
Travis Osborne had a BIG Day yesterday and his Bible Verse of the Day:
Proverbs 28:6 Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.
Golden Bears π» Baseball x 2 in New Albany as well.
#10 – How much easier will our Athletic Director Kevin DeHaven breath during his second time around in the Spring? The spring has 12 teams and at times it can feel a bit like the Wild, Wild West !
#9 – What can Casey Burcham and his dedicated posse do for an encore in season number 2 after checking so many boxes in their first trip around the Sun ?
In nearly five decades of being around High School and College Athletics, I cannot recall one person / one program move the needle in the manner that the Burcham Bunch did last year !
#7 – Can Corrie Delp complete the High School π« version of the Grand Slam by returning to the State Meet for the fourth straight season ?
#6 – Is this the Spring that Shawn Montgomery and Jon Delp need a bigger vehicle for the drive to the State Track and Field meet ?
Each of the past 3 years its been Delp +1 but so many others have been right on the cusp. Elijah Smith, Brayden Smoot and last year it was a certain High Jumper that has new digs to practice on !
#5 – After playing QB for the football team and leading scorer for Anthony Barnes, what will Isaiah Easter do with his Spring ?
College choices might be the answer but so would π seeing him swing a tennis πΎ racket or kicking the Soccer β½οΈ Ball. Better yet, young Man π¨, you can always chill out with us at Cavalier Park!
#4 – Will the greatest Wing Man π¨ in all ‘da business be able to do his share this Spring at Cavalier Park ?
The World π is a Better Place with Kevin Burress in it !
#3 – Will Sophomore Dakota Walls manage to capture a Checkered Flag π or two this Spring ?
Velvet Leonard Photo π·
Dakota has added a second car π to his garage and is kicking off his season down in North Carolina on Sunday , March 8th
#2 – Both Adrienne Harris McGuire and Forrest Johnson ( Jeremy Puckett and Brittany Kinney) ended last Spring with some home Pitch MOJO. Can this hard working πͺ foresome be able to build on it with a full season on the Tommy Thompson Field Soccer Pitch ?????
Girls π§ Soccer β½οΈ
#1 – Drum Roll Please – How many times this Spring will someone approach either Mr Chuck Thompson or Mrs Tammy Quesenberry just to say, ” Thank You for what you do for our Community “?
Start the count at 1 each !
What does the Spring hold for me ?
I have committed three things for the season. To help out Rick Nester at Cavalier Park and do anything possible to assist Shawn Montgomery & Jon Delp.
The third thing is not to bother the folks that don’t want any attention for their programs.
Accident that Tammy had a bigger picture π· than Mr Thompson….
