Day 3 is moving forward as we have said goodbye to Oklahoma and did a cameo with Kansas.

No real news here, just more of an update if you will. Some first time readers have found the site today and I wanted to take a minute to explain what they have stumbled upon.

Linda and I moved to Carroll County six years ago and once we finished unpacking we started our own Non-profit organization, OneofUs.Care.

Saved by the Bell 🔔: The Cavalier College Years has our next to last send-off as we say Goodbye to the Flying Eagles and the Smoot Brothers for 2025 – 2026

This story is a great example as it was written mainly for the Smoot Family 👪 and in part for Anthony Barnes as we have enjoyed our years together ❤.

Alyssa Ervin and Furman University closed out their regular season on a high note 📝 Saturday afternoon and it turns out their victory over Wofford prevented their guests from winning the SoCon crown 👑 outright.

The victory was a vital one for a number of reasons for Coach Pierre Curtis and the team. While they appeared to be headed for the #4 seed in the tournament, they had dropped two straight home games heading into the contest with the Terriers. In both cases the outcome was decided by just a few minutes of action late in the game.

Nobody wanted to head to Ashville on a three game losing streak, especially when all three were played in the Timmons Arena

Another cause for celebration in this one was the dominant second half (35-16) against a team that had a great deal to play for. Curtis had to smile about the fact that four of his players finished up in double figures, led by Clare Coyle with yet another double – double.

Thursday, in the fourth and final game of the day, the will square off with Mercer (#5 seed). The two teams split during the regular season with each winning in the others building. Mercer was one of the two teams that just defeated the ‘Dins but that game was a bit deceiving.

February 21st shows an 80 – 63 victory for Mercer but it came when the Bears 🐻 closed the game on an 18-2 run after it was 62-61. Again, another reason that finishing up strong 💪 against Wofford was so important.

Fourth place in the league but only one win away from sharing the title with the other three teams. Not a bad year for a group that is still getting comfortable with their roles !

Ervin finished up with double figures in scoring in 21 of the 29 games during the season, including five games of 20+. The smile returned and playing with an edge did as well !

Thursday night at 5:45 pm…..

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.

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.

Proverbs 28:6 Better is the poor that walketh in his uprightness, than he that is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

Have a Blessed Day 🙌🙏.
