I get to go to College again today as our Golden Bears 🐻 Baseball team hosts Brescia University in Beckley, West Virginia. It’s the opener of a three game set and both teams are looking to climb the ladder in the River States Conference standings.

It’s been 49 years since I attended my first day of High School as a Norview Pilot. So that made me smile last night when Norview won the Class 5 State Championship in the Siegal Center.

Four more games are set to be played today so more dreams are going to be fulfilled !

Howard Mayo with his Motovational Nugget for the Day :
Travis Osborne and his Bible Verse of the Day :

1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

Carroll County High School and its 12 teams are now ready to begin their Spring season the first of next week so its an exciting time for many on The Hill !

Have yourself a Blessed Day 🙌

I promise that this is the Final Thursday Post 📫 but we have completed the details and are ready to pass out the Invitations to our Track 👣 and Field celebration on Wednesday afternoon, March 18th !!!

Where : Tommy Thompson Field

When : Photo 📷 Shoot at 3 :45 pm, Track Meet begins at 4 :30

Cost : NONE

What are we celebrating : A number of things, including the lone Home meet for the Carroll County High School Boys and Girls Track Meet !

This will be the only time that our recently purchased High Jump area will be used in a competition. Naturally, we want to invite everyone who helped make that happen.

After next Wednesday, the next time these Student Athletes will appear at Tommy Thompson Field is Senior Day at one of the Soccer matches for their version of Senior Day.

Dakota Walls Racing 🏎 is kind enough to provide the CCHS Sophomore’s Race 🏁 Car for the Poster Photo 📷

Dakota Walls this past September 13th at Cavalier Park.
Dakota Walls and our Lady Cavalier Volleyball 🏐 team two years ago.

Both of those Photos 📷 were taken by Mrs Velvet Leonard with this year Mr Craig Worrell handling the camera !

The Photo will be turned into a poster used to promote the Track and Field teams as well as Dakota Walls Racing.

We look forward to working  with Mr Ron Cochran at Omega Office 🏢 once we have the photo from Mr Worrell.

It’s not very often that your opening day doubles as your last home appearance.

The Cavalier Track meet will be worked by members of the Middle School team and they will be included in the Photo. Not sure if Coach Montgomery will follow the lead of Volleyball Coach Cindy Edwards and pop on the helmet  but we are looking forward to seeing…

We are excited about the opportunity to celebrate both versions of our Cavaliers that like to go Fast around a Track !

The Car 🚗 will be there until 4:30 and I will be there until its time to cross the Boulevard to announce the Softball game. The Track and Field teams will be there just this one time this Spring !

Now that I think about it, the Helmet ⛑️ would look good on Tammy Quesenberry, right ?

Like every other Party 🥳 ever planned, there is always that one guest nobody really wants there but there is nothing you can do about it.

Mother Nature gets the final say in the Day…

15 hours of creating stories will come to an end but we will leave you with a Stuart Scott Tribute : The Lady Wasps LaCrosse team must be Butter 🧈 because they are on a Roll !

Emory & Henry – Natalie Harris and her E & H teammates finished up their back to back matches with another victory, this time fending off Edinboro in a back and forth affair.

The team improves to 3-5 overall and 2-0 since Harris returned to the lineup !

The Wasps will take a short break and then head down to the Cumberland Gap next Wednesday for a contest with Lincoln Memorial University.

Lighting the Lamp nine times had to be entertaining !

Thank You to Marion Harris for taking the time to share your quality time with one of your impressive young Ladies !

Godspeed on your journey back up I-81

Today was the very rare day where I played catch-up and it was possible to do that because it was a ” Rest Day “. Try telling my keypad that one.

Apologies to our email 📧 subscribers 🙏 because of the amount of stories in one day.

Time to truly rest on Rest Day because its back to West Virginia in the morning 🌄.
