East River Soccer ⚽️ Complex – It’s Wednesday afternoon and something is about to take place for the final time. In about 20 minutes, Carroll County High School 🏫 Alum KK Newman will take to her home Pitch for the very last time.
We have a few minutes before 1st touch so let’s use it to discuss just why this segment was oh so important to me.
Life is a struggle, pretty much across the board and one of the things that I feel our Youth can use more of is people that they can look up to as an inspiration. Even at the Age of 61, I am still searching for people to look up to. Doctor Oliver McBride is the most recent example of finding one of those types of people.
Kalee Bunn, Madison Stockner, KK Newman, Cordy Gardner, Natalie Harris and Ashlyn Newman are all current CCHS graduates 🎓 that are now chasing their next piece of paper.
These 6 young Ladies along with everyone else not listed are Carroll County success stories and should be viewed as just that. Are any of them going to challenge for a National Championship next month ? Not even a little but what the are doing is setting an example for the ones behind them.
Let’s take a look at the trio that played Volleyball 🏐 for Cindy Edwards. Stockner, Bunn and Gardner all experienced the disciplined manner in which Coach Edwards runs 🏃♂️ her program and the also experienced the fact that Coach Edwards simply wants what’s best for them.
They’re all in College now and still playing VB and excelling as NCAA Student Athletes. A young player coming through the School system now should know the storyline behind these young Ladies just incase they could gain confidence from seeing that others were they are now.
The team the Rams 🐏 are facing today is Columbia College (South Carolina). The two teams played early in the season and the Rams will have their hands full.
But today is not about Soccer, its about saluting someone who graduated from CCHS and then went on to play and earn her degree from a College or University. Don’t forget representing CCHS with Class every step of the way.
The Soccer ⚽️ Ball you can barely see left the playing field, hit off my Truck, rolled across the parking lot and found the only hole big enough for it to roll under ( Too weird).
KK Newman is going places in Life and the Trifecta of God, Family 👪 and Education are tremendous 👏 Building Blocks !
Know those who read our site on a regular basis have a bit of an understanding of why this segment mattered to me. You are never too old to have Role Models !!!!
Half-time Score is 3-0 in favor of the Visitors (2:51 pm) 15:00 on the Clock ⏰ for the break……
Earlier this week I spent some time at an event that also included KK and her efforts….
New Format for the Final 14 Days, starting today ! Why does the road lead to Graham High School 🏫.???
Took the time to do my Good Deed of the Day by walking 🚶♂️ over to the Home 🏡 bench area to let the staff know where they could find their runaway Ball. They seemed very appreciative !!!
3:07 – Start of 2nd Half….
37:27 – (2), now 4-0…
36:26 – 🐏 ever so close the getting one back.

Just as was the case last year for fellow alumni, Adrienne Harris, its time to hang up the competitive spikes but also like Harris, the very, very Bright future lies directly ahead!
