Carroll County High School Golf ⛳ put on a show at Draper Valley on Monday. Strong enough for Trace Reavis to return to the State Tournament and his fellow Cavaliers just missed joining him.

Draper – Cavalier golf coach Jeremy Ogle led his team into the Regional tournament thinking about possibly needing Hotel reservations for Harrisonburg, the site of the Class 3 State Tournament.

   When the day ended, Coach realized just how close he came to needing a bigger vehicle as Carroll County missed out on qualifying as a team by a mere five strokes. One would have to do a deep dive into the history books for the last time that happened.

Trace Reavis carded a two over par 74, finishing up in a four way tie for fifth place. The lanky Senior won the second hole of a playoff to secure a second straight trip to Heritage Oaks Golf Course  October 13th.

Reavis earned 1st team All-Region with his effort as just 17 of the 68 golfers broke 80 on the day. Amazingly, six of the 17 wore the colors of Tunstall. The Trojans captured first place with a 299, fifteen strokes clear of the runner ups at 314.

The top two teams advance to State as well as a few of the golfers not playing on either top team. Reavis fits into that category after his two hole playoff but let’s see just how close the Cavaliers were to joining him at State.

Camden DeHaven finished with an 80 and his effort earned him a spot on Region 3D Second team. Wyatt Ogle was close behind with an 82 and the fourth counting score went to Adison McGraw (83), giving the team a sparkling 319 total.

Both Fisher McMillian and Bryce Cochran broke 90 as the duo each carded an 88. The team finished fifth overall in the 13 School event !

Tunstall – 299

Lord Botetourt & Christiansburg 314

‘Twas the Day before Boo Ridge and all through the House 🏠, nine people were saying – ” West Long is the Man 👨”…Welcome 🙏 to Friday, October 10th

Welcome to Fall Break
Coach Mayo and his Motovational Nugget of the Day
Travis Osborne with today’s Bible verse

Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.

On a personal note 📝, every morning when I wake ⏰ up, I am thankful for three things – #1 God has Blessed me with another Day – #2, Howard Mayo sends me a Motovational Nugget (Weekdays) and #3, Travis Osborne sends me a Bible Verse.

The mission I’m on is to give people hope by showing them kindness and grace. It can be lonely at times, trying hard to Captain the Good Ship 🚢 Lollipop 🍭 but less so when you have two impressive Men trying to support your efforts !

Peyton (7) and Emma (6) were our leading passers with the most passes closest to target. Briley had 8 great assists. Emma had 5 great hits with a kill! This match ended 25-22. Radford fought hard and had some good serves!

Match 2: We had really, really good energy to go into this match. The girls wanted this win…bad! Briley and Tihana led us in serves with 6 each; Briley had an ace! Emma had 5 serves as well with an ace! Mahala and Laynee also had some good serves for us and also each had an ace. We were having fun this match and you could tell because we were playing our best volleyball! Briley had 10 assists, Mahala had 5 hits with 1 kill, Emma (7) and Laken (6) had the most passes closest to the target! They were dancing and having the time of their lives after this game! I’m so proud of them.

Stay out of the Woods behind Hillsville Elementary School 🏫 because they are haunted and then some! Preparing the course for Saturday morning 🌄 as Boo Ridge 5K weekend has officially started.

Vickey Ritchie likes Halloween 🎃. The audience shouts back, ” How 🤔 much does she like it ?: The answer fills up a Box Truck 🚚!!

  While the event doesn’t officially start until 7:30 am on Saturday, the preparation begins as soon as the Elementary School closed on Thursday afternoon.

Four hours are blocked 🚫 off on Thursday (2-6 pm) and a full nine hours on Friday from 9am until 6pm. This much time is needed to strategicly place Spooky things throughout the 3.2 mile Trek.

Vickey is considering what life would be like if all of her tubs were full of truly haunted items. Each item would jump out of its container in a timely fashion and run out to the correct place on the course!!!!!

Until then, Vickey and her troop of volunteers 🙋‍♀️ will keep up the good fight and welcome others to join in the pre-fun!
