This took place during the school's weekly Phoenix Fri-day. To the Early College, Phoenix Fridays are a time to get together with classmates and build school culture. For the fair, volunteers from organizations around the area came to the school to speak with students about community Izaiah Morales, a Junior, listens to Lori Bostian, representative from A Storehouse for Jesus. - Photo by Sam Scoggins, Davie Early College Students learn importance of community service service opportunities. “This will help make my communication skills better and branch out to people I've never seen before,” says Jhonel Marlow, a sophomore. Students were encouraged to explore options that corre-spond with their interests. Bentley Rivers, a freshman, reflected on her time spent at the fair. “I really enjoy working with little kids, so the activities at Cognition Davie were really interesting to me.” Com-munity service has always been an essential value of the school.

Jordan played on community teams as a teenager in a league with Faith, Salisbury, and Granite Quarry. It was then he knew he wanted to make baseball his career.His first contract was signed in 1927 with the New York Giants. They bought him for $7,500 and paid $450 a month. Next came Washington, Boston, and Cincinnati. In his 1936 season, Jordan was the first National Leaguer to reach 100 hits and finished with a .323 average and 120 RBIs.In 1938, Wheaties came calling and paid him $100 for letting them put his picture on a box of their cereal.He couldn’t believe a boy like him from Cooleemee hav-ing the lucky chance to be on the same team as famous baseball player, Babe Ruth. Ruth was in his mid 40s at the end of his career. Jordan was the only one to pinch hit for Babe Ruth in exhibition games.In 1938 Jordan ended his career playing for Cincinnati and Philadelphia and remains one of the few players in big league history to hit .300 in his last major league season ending up with a .299 lifetime mark.The above statistics are quit impressive for anyone who knows the game.As for me, I couldn’t understand why Jordan was reject-ed consistently each time several people filled out forms to honor his place in the Davie County Sports Hall of Fame.Is it because it was so long ago? It can’t be because he didn’t go to Davie High School because some athletes on the list didn’t go there. So, what is it?I tired to inquire to the Hall of Fame Board but its my understanding the board hasn’t meet in a while and not sure if it will become active again.Jordan and his wife, Mildred, had two young children to die so they adopted five others. Those children and their many grandchildren, not to mention the relatives that live still in Davie County would appreciate some type of well-deserved accolades in his memory.As a resident of Davie County, a county where I proudly grew up in Cooleemee, I am happy to learn about another great athlete who lived in Cooleemee. Enough time has passed and I sincerely hope who ever has the authority to carry this request through will do so without further delay.KC SmithCooleemee ApprehensionBy Marie CraigMy friend described their son’s first week of kindergar-ten last week, and it brought tears to my eyes. He cried all five days when he left her and entered the classroom. He wanted to stay with her, and he was very shy and uncertain about going into a room of strangers and a new way of life. I can’t remember that my two sons were this upset, and I don’t think I was when I entered first grade. I think all three of us are too stubborn for that. I’m not sure we ever get over those butterflies when we are called upon to do something totally different and diverse. Most people settle into a routine and spend their lives on automatic pilot. For example, think about the peo-ple in your church. Almost all of them sit in the same spot every Sunday for their entire lives. In another town where we lived, there was a man in our church who always sat at the same position. Early-arriving visitors sat in his place one Sunday. The man walked in, saw that somebody was in his seat, and turned around and went home.Imagine, if you will, going to a party where you knew no one. You hesitate at the door and then reluctantly enter thinking you probably forgot to put shoes on or have spin-ach on your teeth or have a Kick Me sign on your back. Blood pressure tests would probably be interesting to read when people are thrust into a situation of not knowing oth-er people or the protocol. We are a little amused at children’s hesitations to try new things such as school, but maybe the reason we find it hu-morous is because, deep down, we are just the same. The Dr. Lippard HouseBy Gaye HootsSeveral homes on the Advance end of Underpass Road are around 100 years old. The house I lived in and updated that had belonged to the Hartman family for most of my life is one of them, and it dates from 1888. The house di-rectly across from it was the Will Hendrix house, where his granddaughter Janie lives, and it has been there all my life. Two houses below it is a two-story white house with a front balcony.I remember this house well because Ed and Kathy Reichel lived there many years, and they babysat my grand-daughter, Tiffany, before she started school. It has beautiful features including bow windows in both front rooms. The house has stood empty for a while, and the grounds became overgrown as the house deteriorated.This home was built by Dr. Lippard, who purchased his first land in the area in 1887; some of the land he bought from the Orrell family. He married Emma Howard/Call from the Bixby/Smith Grove area and began building the home for his wife, who was expecting their first child, and to use as his medical office. He died at the age of 37 before their child was born. Emma lived in the home with her daughter, Vance Hart-ley’s mother, Georgia, and later married Ance Cornatzer, a widower with several older children. One of Ance’s sons lost his wife when their daughter, Pansy Cornatzer, was only six weeks old. Emma and Ance kept the child with them and raised her. When Pansy was 6, Ance died, and Emma, her step-grandmother kept Pansy with her.The Vance Hartley family recently purchased the house with plans to bring it back to life. They have cleared much of the brush and overgrown trees and shrubbery, hauled off the trash, uncovered fireplaces, and plan to live in the home while working to restore its beautiful features.Other homes in this area are owned by Shirley Markland and her husband and are a work in progress. I am happy that these beautiful old homes are being saved. Jack and Jane Carter have purchased the Aunt Maime Markland/Myers home near them with plans to repair it, so this end of Advance is being improved by the day.Some of these houses, like the Hartman house, have original heart pine flooring, high ceilings, fireplaces, origi-nal doors, and other features. It is exciting to follow the progress of the homes and the surrounding grounds. The former Sidden home beside Shirley Markland’s shop is beautifully landscaped, and the shop contains many beau-tiful items suitable for older homes. The Full Measure store and the reopening of the Restaurant, Goose’s Grill, is bringing life back to this end of town. ZinniasBy Julie Terry Cartner“I don’t want to move,” 9-year-old Harper cried. “All of my friends are here, and my school, and my garden…” She tapered off as tears fell. As only the child of a military family can know, nothing is permanent. Her mom, active in the military, had to go where she was stationed. Her dad, self-employed, could work from anywhere as long as he had internet access. And Harper, an only child, had to fol-low with as much grace as she could muster.It hadn’t been as hard when she was younger, but, now in fourth grade, in a school that she’d been in since first grade, Harper had established friendships, roots that she didn’t want to tear up. “Please, Mom,” she started, then, looking at her mom’s tear-drenched eyes, she took a deep breath, and said, “I’ll start packing.” But, heading towards her bedroom, she detoured, and ran out to her garden.Harper had loved gardening since the day her grand-mother had put a trowel in her hand. On yearly visits to Harper’s grandparents’ farm, Nana would have Harper’s hands in the soil as soon as they’d arrive. She taught Harp-er about herbs and flowers and how to love and care for the land. On their last visit, Nana had pressed packets of seeds into Harper’s hands. “You’re old enough. Go home and plant a garden.” And she had.Now Harper looked at her garden. She loved all the plants, but the zinnias were her favorites. They filled the garden with almost every color imaginable and enticed the butterflies and finches to enjoy the nectar and seeds. How could she leave them? Then, filled with determination, she removed the dead blossoms from the plants. I’ll harvest the seeds, she thought. I can’t take the garden with me, but I can take the seeds and start over.Returning to the house, she asked her mom, “When do we leave?” Saturday morning was the answer. Harper and her classmates were to give research reports on Friday. Now Harper knew what to do. Friday morning, she got up early and went into her garden. Carefully cutting dozens of zinnias, she put them into a vase, mixing the flowers in a riot of colors. When it was her turn to present her report, Harper car-ried the vase to the front of the room. She told about the history of zinnias. They were first recorded in the 1520s in Mexico and were considered little more than ugly weeds. The Spaniards called them mal de ojos or sickness of the eye. Then by the early 1700’s cultivation of the flower had made it more attractive, and it was re-named zinnia after the botanist, Johann Zinn. More cultivation led to prettier blossoms and the popularity of zinnias spread across Eu-rope and America.Navajo and Pueblo tribes used the flowers for stomach and throat medicines, dyes, and paints. Zinnias were con- Surprise, surprise.Actually, noone was surprised, especially our edu-cators.The latest state accountability test results show that student performance declined since pandemic shut-downs started.I remember a parent telling an educator after the initial lockdowns and remote learning started: “Our kids are going to be dumber than dirt.”That was an exaggeration, of course, but the num-bers don’t lie.I say the numbers don’t tell the whole story, either. Our kids will be fine.Sure, they’re a bit behind in reading and math and other subjects, but not that far. Let’s not forget that the goal keeps going farther out the better a class per-forms. I can’t see how a class could continue to make the best grade possible on the state accountability test year after year. I understand the need for the tests, which are help-ful in identifying specific problems and putting re-sources where most needed. Kids need to know how to read, and we should continue to do everything pos-sible to reach that goal. Tests help with that. The same goes with other subjects we all use during our lives. I’m not blaming the test, here.But these tests don’t measure everything. They for sure don’t measure how a child learns to cope with life.What most kids got was more time at home. In 99% of cases, that can only be good. Even parents with problems of their own want what’s best for their children. Remember, parents and grandparents and everyone else in a child’s life are also their teachers. You may not be teaching them calculus, (Like me, you probably don’t even understand calculus, that’s why I work at the newspaper.), but you can teach them how to act, how to respect others, even the im-portance of buckling down and getting that education. It’s called character, and our kids learned plenty during the shutdown.Our kids also learned responsibility. Remote learn-ing was kind of like homework, but all day. When you’re at school, you’re stuck. At home, it takes even more willpower to concentrate on the school task at hand. I don’t know how they did it, but they did. Our kids learned that the world throws curveballs. You may get a fastball down the middle every now and then and drive it out of the park, but when you least expect it, a curveball comes, and if you don’t adjust, you’re headed back to the dugout. Our kids learned how to adjust. They’re ready for life’s curve-balls.They learned about politics. Sure, recent years haven’t been what we think they should have been politically, and we haven’t acted so great, either. Our kids are watching, and learning. The pandemic only heightened our political divide. You have to know your past to prevent bad things from happening in the future, right? Our kids learned tons about technology, as did our educators. They learned how to communicate effec-tively without being in front of a person. They learned it with schoolwork and with interactions with their friends. That knowledge can only help them in the future. I wish I had half the technological knowledge of the average 12 year old.Yes, our kids will be fine.It’s the rest of us I’m worried about.- Mike Barnhardt DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 15, 2022 - 3 Presidential Sites Continued From Page B1considered the symbol of wisdom, and parents fed the flowers to their children hoping to make them intelligent and well spoken. Navajo lore tells of a young boy being sent to find zinnias to protect the crops. Harper concluded with these words: “We’re moving tomorrow; Mom has new orders, so this is my good-bye.” Pointing to the various flowers, she told her friends about the symbols of the zinnias. “These,” indicating the ma-genta blossoms, “stand for lasting affection, and these, the yellow, mean remembrance, like I’ll love and remember you after I’m gone. Whites mean goodness and reds are about staying constant, so together they mean constant goodness, like my time here has been. But most impor-tantly, the flowers, with all the colors mixed together, rep-resent remembering absent friends. So, I’m going to leave these flowers here, and hope you’ll remember me, as I’ll remember you. I guess we meet a lot of people in our lives, and they’re all different, just like all the zinnia colors. I’m sad that I’m leaving, but I’m taking my seeds with me to grow a new garden. When the zinnias bloom, I’ll think of you as I hope you will think of me.” [Ward, Rufus. “Ask Rufus: Gardens of Youth and Old Age.” The Dispatch 28 June 2014.] Renegade ... By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise If you live in Davie County and want to vis-it sites connected to the 39th President of the Unit-ed States, Jimmy Carter, you can do so by traveling only 298.2 miles. That is the distance from Mocks-ville to Atlanta, Ga., where The Carter Center and The Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum are located. Those are the Carter sites closest to Mocksville. Both The Center and the Presidential Library and Museum are on a 35 acre tract of land just outside of Atlanta. The Carter Center is a non-governmental orga-nization whose purpose is to save lives by resolving conflicts and preventing or eradicating disease in the world. That center also works to advance democra-cy. The Carter Center has advanced peace and health in eighty countries. The Carter Center is open by appointment. The Jimmy Carter Pres-idential Library, next to the Carter Center, houses the papers of President Carter. The Carter Museum houses a vast collection of Ameri-can Art. Call 404-865-7100 for information about the Carter Center and the Pres-idential Library and Muse-um. The other President Car-ter sites are more distant in Plains, Ga., 433 miles from Mocksville. Plain is 146.5 miles from Atlanta.Jimmy Carter was born in a hospital, the first Unit-ed States President to be born in a hospital. The mother and baby then went to the Carter home in Ar- chery, about three miles west of Plains. Jimmy Car-ter lived in that house until he went away to the Naval Academy. Jimmy Carter’s home in Archery is open to the public daily as are other buildings in the Jim-my Carter National Histor-ic Park, which include the Plains High School, and the Plains Depot. Call 229-824-4104 for information about the Park, which is ad-ministered by the National Park Service.The house where Jimmy Carter grew up looks just like many homes in Davie County which were built in the 1920s and 30s. It is a weather-boarded house, painted white and it has a screened-in front porch. Until Jimmy was 13, the house had no electricity. The house was heated with wood heaters and the cook-ing was done on a wood-fired range. Electricity ar-rived in Archery about the same time that it did in the Cana community of Davie, which was 1939.From the time that he was a young boy, Jimmy was expected to help with the chores such as carry-ing in wood for the kitchen range and the heaters. He was also expected to help with the earlier morning chores on the farm which included slopping the hogs, feeding the chickens, feed-ing and milking the cows, and caring for the horses. In recent years, Carter wrote a book called “An Hour before Daylight” which describes the work that had to be done on the farm before daybreak and what he was required to do. That book would be inter-esting to all the Davie peo-ple who grew up on a farm in the 30s and 40s. A man who worked on the farm would ring a big bell about 4 or 4:30 to wake up all the farm workers. Jimmy, who his father, Mr. Earle, called “Hot.” also worked during the day plowing or carrying water to the farm workers. Jimmy father said: “Hot, do you want to plow or carry water? Jimmy would say, “Plow” because he much preferred that to carrying water. He actually liked the feel of the cool soil which the plow turned over. Jim-my did not have to work all of the time. He and his best friend, a black boy whose name was A.D., spent hours roaming over the many acres of the Car-ter Farm hunting and just exploring. They also spent time fishing.Jimmy Carter went to school at the school in Plains. He graduated there at the top of his class. He wanted to go the Naval Academy but was not able to get a recommendation from his Congressman un-til about two years after he graduated from Plains High School. Jimmy excelled at Annapolis. During his last year there, he came home on leave. Jimmy’s sister got him a date with her best friend, Rosalynn Smith, a girl Jimmy had known all of his life, but something was different this time. Jimmy soon realized that she was the person with whom he wanted to spend the rest of his life. They were married after he grad-uated from the Naval Acad-emy and when Rosalynn was 18. Roselynn, who had scarcely ever been out of Plains, looked forward to moving to new places and meeting new people. Jimmy advanced in the Navy and his wife was hap-py each time they received a new assignment. She got to be efficient at setting up their home in a new place even after they had three little boys. Jimmy advanced in his career and all was well un-til tragedy struck. They re-ceived word that Jimmy’s father, “Mr. Earle,” was deathly ill. Jimmy was re-ally torn over whether he should stay in the Navy or go home to Plains to help with his father and man-age the peanut warehouse, which his father owned. He finally decided he should go home. When he told Rosalynn about his decision, trouble began. She did not want to move back to Plains, but no matter how much she cried, Jimmy’s mind was made up. They packed the car and headed south. Jimmy said that that was a cold trip because Rosalynn did not speak to him all the way to Plains.Jimmy managed the warehouse successfully and Rosalynn finally agreed to help in the office. She real-ized that she liked the work and took over managing the business part of the op-eration, which gave Jimmy time to get involved in local political affairs. He began at the local level and ended up as Governor of Georgia. Carter then decided secret-ly that he wanted to run for President of the United States. The Carter family spread out across the nation campaigning. They often stayed in the homes of sup- porters partly because they thought it allowed people to know them better and partly because they didn’t have the money to pay for hotel rooms. The result of that person-to-person campaign was that Jimmy Carter was elected as the 39th President of the Unit-ed States. Carter’s success as president was somewhat limited partly because he did not really see the need of working closely with Congress. Also the Iranians stormed the American Em-bassy in Tehran and took more than 50 people hos-tage. Jimmy spent all of his last months in office trying to get the hostages released. He wasn’t able to campaign because he was working so hard on the hostage situa-tion. Jimmy Carter lost the election. Mr. Carter and his wife went home to Plains. Even though Jimmy Carter was not one of the most suc-cessful presidents, he has gained great respect for his activities as an ex-president particularly for his work with the Carter Center. He and his wife have also been involved with the Carter Presidential Library and Museum. Both Carters have worked untiringly for Hab- itat for Humanity, not only as committee members, but also driving nails to build houses for needy families.President Carter is 95 and his wife is 93. They still live in the home in Plains, Ga. which they built years ago. That house, of course, is not open to the public but can be seen from a viewing area. isitors can also see the old Plains High School and the Depot where Carter kicked off his presidential campaign and which served as campaign headquarters during the campaign in the town of Plains as well as Jimmy Carter’s birthplace which is just west of Plains.

It is across the state and na-tion,” Wallace said.“I’ll guarantee that not one of you is surprised, with what we’ve been through in the last two to three years. The impact of school dis-ruption, what families have gone through, it seriously hit our families and our stu-dent performance.”Foil said the state ac-countability tests started in 1994, intended to keep every school system ac-countable to the needs of every student by measuring academic achievement and growth. The overall results include many variables, with the ability to track stu-dents and groups.In the 2018-2019 school year, two of Davie’s schools did not meet expected growth, five met expecta-tions and four exceeded expectations. The latest numbers, for the 2021-2022 school year, show that five schools did not meet ex-pected growth, four met the standards and three exceed-ed standards.“This will definitely be an area of focus this year,” Foil said. “We’ll work with schools to identify what we think is the cause. Then we work with the curriculum to determine the best way to move forward to improve that growth; and that is al-ways our goal, to improve that growth.”Wallace said the Davie school system fared better than most. Nearly half of schools statewide received a “D” or “F.”The good news, Foil said, is that Davie students ranked ninth in the state for math scores in grade 6 and 10th in grade 7, and that high school scores ranked 16th.Board member Wendy Horne said the schools again enforcing the atten-dance policy should help. “It’s got to be discourag-ing, but I don’t think any of us are going to overlook what people in the class- NOW HIRING Apply in Person 251 Eaton Rd., Mocksville E.O.E. $14/hr. & up $500 Sign On Bonus Great Benefits • PAY & BonusesAll Shifts Available We’re Growing!

I think the fact that we’re going to have a steady attendance policy this year, that’s going to make a huge difference.”Wallace agreed.“We have a strong struc-ture to stand on to find those deficiencies and address them relatively quickly,” he said.Wallace pointed out that students entering kinder-garten this year have lived half their lives with Covid restrictions. As the school year began, some students had never seen a cafeteria with tables and chairs. “I commend our staff, our kids, our parents. I’m very proud of our schools. We’ve got things we need to work on, we always do, but there are special things we are going to target. I have extreme confidence.”•A total of 5,950 stu-dents were in the school system, slightly lower than predictions but will likely increase, Wallace said. “It feels better, almost like nor-mal.”In early September, 21 students had been diag-nosed with Covid, six staff members. There are not clusters or patterns. “It’s just scattered around our schools,” Wallace said.•A preliminary opinion from a demographer hired by the towns, county and school system said that the large number of houses pro-posed to be built shouldn’t have an immediate impact on the school system.“He said he doesn’t ex-pect an immediate explo-sion (of students) because the houses won’t all be built out at once, or in the next two years.”Wallace said the system has the ability to change district lines in coming years if student growth in one area exceeds capacity of that district.•Finance Director Clay Harris and his staff accept-ed a certificate of excellence from the Assocation of School Business Officials.

Educat-ing our children by paying tuition and fees for students who live and attend school in Davie to attend either campus of Davidson-Davie Community College full-time, along with a stipend of up to $250 per semester for books is an amazing in-vestment.”Students are taking ad-vantage of that investment. After two years in the pro-gram, 21 Ignite Davie stu-dents have graduated from Davidson-Davie Commu-nity College. They have secured a variety of degrees and certificates: 3, AS de-grees; 11, AA degrees; 2, dental assisting; 2, welding; 1, automotive technology; 1, HVAC; 1, PNE.This August, 159 students started classes at Davidson-Davie Community College as Ignite Davie students. They represented the Class of 2022 (78 students); Class of 2021 (56 students); and Class of 2020 (25 students). “As more students reach graduation, more of Davie’s workforce will have the training and education nec-essary for the jobs available in our county,” Simpson said. “As graduates choose to live and work in Davie County, the educational at-tainment of the county will improve, giving Davie the competitive advantage we are looking for.”The average cost per year, per graduating class, is $40,000. During the 2022-2023 year, Ignite Davie expenses for three classes could reach $120,000.

Weston Leibee, current VP/General Manager, has been named President effec-tive June 28. In remarks during a din-ner for Liberty’s leadership team, Eaton said: “I knew the day that I hired him, he would probably be the man who someday replaced me.” Mr. Eaton continued to say he has watched Weston grow and learn, and appre-ciates the way Leibee in-spires people with his words and actions. Weston Leibee new president of Liberty Storage Solutions Bobby Eaton hands over the reins as president of Liberty Storage Solutions to Weston Leibee, who is shown at right the sword that designates him as the de- fender of the company’s culture. Mr. Eaton said he has been the defender of Lib-erty’s culture and as a sym-bol of that, a sword has been made engraved with the words “President. Defender of Our Culture”. “Tonight, it is with great joy and deep gratitude that I pass this off to Weston,” Eaton said. “I do know that Weston is absolutely the man for the job. I congratu-late Mr. Weston Leibee as the new President of Liberty Storage Solutions.” Leibee said he is hum-bled by everything that has taken place since March of 2017 when he first accepted employment with Liberty. Leibee began his shed career in 1996 and spent 12 years serving God do-ing nonprofit work in Ghana West Africa with his wife, Charity. Upon returning to the United States, he ac-cepted the position of sales manager with Liberty Stor-age Solutions. He worked his way up to vice president/general manager. “The office of President at Liberty Storage Solutions is bigger than myself,” he said. “I commit to hand over the office of President, one day, to a qualified successor, all the while preserving the culture that is larger than any one of us, the culture of Liberty…may we empower people through relation-ships to live whole lives.” Famil y Medicine Enjoy the last official Sat-urday of summer at Summer Beach Days in Downtown Mocksville.

Although special-izing as a party band, the band’s repertoire of hun-dreds of songs encompasses a variety of musical styles, including R&B, Beach, Mo-town/Oldies, Pop, Dance, Funk, and Jazz. Founded in 1997 by male vocalist, Michael Thomas, EnVision also consists of four female vocalists – Sylvania Wilder, Michelle Scales, Iris Daye, and Char-lene Legette.The vocal group is also backed by a rhythm sec-tion. The instrumentation of the backing band consists of Leroy Roberson (Musi-cal Director) on bass, Herb Stephens on guitar, Vincent Crenshaw on keyboard, and Matthew Parrish on drums. The horn section consists of C. Michael Hinson (trom-bone), James Armstrong (trumpet), and Chris Evern-ham (saxophone).

Desserts, including Baked Figgy Pudding, are artfully arranged on an old pedestal table covered with an heirloom cloth. Marcia Phillips autographs her new book at the book launch on Saturday, held at the Shallow Ford Daylily Farm. The Heritage Pound Cake, another recipe from her grandmother, is made using measurements of the purest ingredients. Food references are juicy ingredients in any story – I'm hooked. But when a tale combines food with history, the author's reeled me in. In her recently published book, “Historic Shallow Ford in Yadkin Valley,” Marcia Phillips casts a net of historical research that compels readers to want to know more. While the rocky road traveled might have been shallow – its sig-nificance in history runs deep. Like all history – the road was of great value and still is. The place has big stories to tell – a path of wet rocks that served as a gateway to the Western North Carolina frontier. A skillful writer, Marcia takes read-ers with her, crossing that path – like the ones who came before us. Early pioneers who traversed the waters represented different people groups and eras. Cross-ing the shallow ford goes back to a time in history when Eastern Carolina was still strongly tied to England. The area was the cradle, a training ground for trans-Appa-lachian western settlement – not just in North Carolina, but in Ken-tucky, Tennessee, and beyond – like the first frontier. A few of the book's fascinat-ing stories include how English explorer John Lawson described eating heritage persimmons – an old type still found locally. Law-son humorously described his all-puckered-up experience, "if eaten before (ripe), draws your Mouth up like a Purse, being the greatest Astringent I ever met." Lawson also referred to seeing an Indian technique for drying venison – a cooking style he called "barbaku."Tax Regulators were the first revolutionaries and fought Governor Tryon over taxes to support England. When the colonies' relationship with Britain went sour – the Regula-tors couldn't take the heat and got out of the kitchen, so to speak – hightailing it to the hills. The story has it that home cooks, afraid to take them in, would bake bread and put it on the posts along the trail so the Regulators wouldn't starve to death. The book also includes an interesting local tidbit - Revo-lutionary War General Cornwallis describes his attempts to trudge through mud, saying it was like plodding through pudding – difficult. I'm sure he meant like British figgy pudding – filled with fruits and nuts. The man Cornwal-lis gave name to our local Pudding Ridge, not one of our patriots. A fascinating story surrounds pound cake. Two broth-ers, Confederate deserters, were captured and sentenced to die. A day before the hanging, their sister, Grace, delivered the boys a large pound cake – no doubt a loving gesture to serve as their last meal. Surprisingly, hacksaws and files had been baked into the cake and those boys escaped, liv-ing to tell about it. Women back in those days made simple meals like stews and bread. To feed their families, they used foods avail-able to them. Local, natural foods were grown –harvested, pulped, and dried - as a more organic way of preparing meals. Pure ingredients were used, and seasonings were added. Following the Civil War, women left pots of soup for returning weary and hungry soldiers making their way back home in time for spring planting. These and many more stories are examples of how local cooks came through in times of dire need for their neighbors and strangers. That is Southern hospitality at its best. Of hospitality, I recently attended Marcia's new book re-lease, where she served a few of her heritage recipes that record measurements, such as a half-pound of butter. On Marcia's website is an excellent quote by Barbara Tuchman that reads, "I am a disciple of the ounce because I mistrust history in gallon jugs." History is about small measures and increments of time – the details. Studying history is much like eating – you want to take one small bite at a time.Corroborative detail means to support with evidence. Marcia's book keeps the reader grounded in historical truth. History's not just facts and stories – but also research – a tool to reveal truths. My favorite history book is my Bible. The Bible encourages us first to learn and then live – not the other way around. To walk in the light, life, and love of the Lord is at the heart of wisdom. There are no silent witnesses to history found here. Instead, you will find a full accounting of eyewitnesses to history – the life and miracles of Jesus. God's word gives us a historical perspec-tive from which to understand the significance of being a recipient of spiritual blessings. Ephesians 1:3 reads, "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ." (NIV)Sometimes an old recipe is missing some measurements – we have to guess what comes next. But when reading the Bible, deeper study helps us understand any gaps that pre-vent us from accurately understanding God's word. There's no guesswork involved. The Holy Spirit leads us into truth – by way of history. MARCIA'S BAKED FIGGY PUDDING3 eggs1 cup buttermilk½ cup butter¾ cup molasses¼ cup orange marmalade1 cup chopped dried figs1/3 cup dried currants½ cup dried cherries1 Tbsp. chopped preserved ginger½ cup chopped nuts – pecan or of choice1 ½ cup dried bread crumbs2 cups flour1 tsp. ground nutmeg1 tsp. ground cinnamon1 tsp. ground cloves(1 tsp. ground ginger if preserved not available)1 tsp. orange peelPreheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat eggs by vigorously whisking or fast speed on mixer for 1 minute. Reduce speed to mix in butter, buttermilk, molasses, marmalade, dried fruits, nuts, and dried bread crumbs. Mix until blend-ed, at least 2 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk flour with spices until blended and light. Stir into wet mixture until just blended. Ladle into large Bundt or pound cake pan greased with butter. Setting pan in larger pan with 2 inches of water or putting water pan on rack below will give it steamed moist aspect. Bake for 2 hours, checking for doneness at 70 minutes and every 10 minutes after that, as ovens differ. At that point, brew yourself a cup of hot Earl Grey Tea to enjoy when taste testing. Good served warm with whipped cream, but after a few days of sitting, favors improve, so best made several days before serving.Marcia curated her version from a traditional British Christmas dessert using dried fruits or pudding, as the Brits referred to desserts. Marcia's British heritage – her dad was Canadian – was tempered by an American con-venience from her southern mom, who preferred baking instead of a two-hour-long steam bath. Every cook made a signature dish differently and historically used what they had on hand – like dried bread, dried fruits from summer, and available spices. They had to grind their spices which gave it a more intense flavor. The Brits often pour rum over it and light it on fire. Brits always have cream or milk in their cup of tea – the milk was poured in the cup first by the poorer common person to prevent breaking their cheaper china with hot tea, whereas the upper crust with nice bone china showed off by adding their milk after tea was poured. Figgy Pudding is excellent with a hot cup of tea.

(First printed in historic Mrs. Leslie's Directions for Cook-er in Its Various Branches by Eliza Leslie, 1840.)Marcia made this gingerbread for her history students so they could sample how bland medieval food is enhanced by flavoring it with freshly ground ginger and other im-ported, exotic spices. It's similar to Moravian gingerbread. Up to this time, pearlash was used for rising, but modern versions use baking soda. Molasses was still being used as white sugar was a luxury. A full measure of food and history DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 15, 2022 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record When you’re experiencing growing pains like the Davie varsity soccer team, every win is precious. A 3-0 home nonconference win over West Rowan on Sept. 6 was significant because it matched the number of wins the past two sea-sons combined, a span that saw Davie go 2-28-1. What’s more, it broke a five-game losing streak and marked the most goals in 22 games. The game was played in a steady rain. “The guys pretty much dom-inated the whole game,” coach Marco Rebollar said. “We came out firing in the first 10 minutes. I was pumped for them to get that win.”Davie did all the scoring in the first half. Peter Marks was the man of the hour with two goals. Alex Torres had the other. “Peter was close to getting a hat trick,” Rebollar said. “He had an excellent game. I’ve been using him at center back the last three or four games, and I decided to put him up top - and it worked. He put two away, so that was awesome to see.”Rebollar liked what he saw from midfielders Mason Tarbet, Justin Rayas, Alex DelCarmen and Alex Torres and defenders Karson Yount, Alex Tarbet, Will Davis and Zachary Hill. “My midfield played out of their minds,” he said. “My back line played amazing.”A. Tarbet is a versatile weapon who played center back against the Falcons (3-4), who suffered their third straight loss. “I moved a guy we call Pepsi to center back,” Rebollar said. “He’s a guy I can use at midfield, for-ward, anywhere - but we think we found his home now. He’s a natural at center back. He played some fantastic balls and he’s quick.”How did A. Tarbet get the nick-name Pepsi? “I think he drinks a Pepsi be-fore every game,” Rebollar said. “The other day he ran up to the gas station because he had to go get a Pepsi.”A. Tarbet and Rayas had assists. Reynolds 5, Davie 0It was just 1-0 late in the first half, but Davie (2-7 overall) didn’t have the horses to stay with vis-iting Reynolds in the Central Piedmont Conference opener on Sept. 7. A goal just before halftime all but dashed Davie’s upset hopes. “It could have been 1-0 at halftime, but they snuck one in Soccer dominates West Rowan See Dominates - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record On Aug. 29, the Davie JV soc-cer team was lugging a nightmar-ish 22-game losing streak, having scored two goals in 18 games. Look at what’s happened since then. The War Eagles of Scott Mc-Bain have taken a big step forward, going 1-0-2 across three games and scoring six goals during that stretch. Last week they tied West Rowan and Reynolds. “We’re happy,” McBain said. “We’re grabbing some success. Some of these kids had never played the game before. This is a new experience for five or six kids. They’re learning, so we’re going to get better. We’re building a program.”In a home nonconference game on Sept. 6, Manny Alanis began his two-game outburst by scoring twice in a 3-3 tie with West Rowan. The War Eagles led 2-0 at half-time, but things went sideways for a chunk of the second half. When West scored with a minute remain-ing, Davie was behind 3-2. But the Isaiah Beaty/Alanis combination rescued Davie. Beaty drew a foul in the box and Alanis converted the accompanying pen-alty kick to force a tie. “Isaiah goes running down the field, cuts across the guy’s path and smartly draws a foul,” Mc-Bain said. “When he went down in flames, they gave him a PK.”Abdullah Guver had the other Davie goal. “It was a well-played, entertain-ing match for sure,” he said. “The kids are starting to get it.”Davie 1, Reynolds 1One day later in the Central Piedmont Conference opener against visiting Reynolds, the War Eagles came away with a tie and were a whisker from winning. In the first half, Alanis drilled a PK, giving him four of Davie’s six goals on the year. Late in the second half, an own goal was the only reason the Demons did not leave with a loss. JVs continue soccer turnaround Please See JVs - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’re well aware of who Coy James is, and if you don’t know, now you do. On July 26, he was among 72 players invited to try out for the U-15 national baseball team. On Aug. 13, he flew to Phoenix, Ariz., for Team USA Trials. On Aug. 16, coaches cut from 72 to 34. On Aug. 19, James was named to the 20-man roster to represent the United States in the U-15 Baseball World Cup in Hermosillo, Mexico. Wait. This gets better. Team USA went 8-1 in a span of 10 days (Aug. 26-Sept. 4) and earned the gold medal. And - get this - the Davie sophomore hauled off the tournament MVP trophy. ‘USA! USA! USA!’ MVP Coy James leads national team to World Cup baseball title James settled into the leadoff spot, manned center field - he’d barely played that position before wearing the red, white and blue - and played brilliantly, ranking in the top five among all players from 13 countries in runs, hits, home runs, slugging percentage, batting average, RBIs, on-base percent-age, stolen bases and at-bats. “Coy was identified last year as a 14 year old who may have the opportunity to make the national team as a 15 year old,” manager/head coach Drew Briese of Ken-tucky said. “He actually went to the 15-U team trials for last year’s national team as a 14 year old, but didn’t make it. “You can’t really say enough about his performance. He was steady, he was powerful, he ran, he hit with two strikes. He kind of did everything that you want to do offensively.” The countries represented in Mexico included Cuba, Chinese Taipei, Japan, Puerto Rico, Pan-ama, Mexico, Venezuela, Co-lombia, Czech Republic, France, Guam and South Africa. “It was one of the best feelings of my life looking down and seeing those three letters on your chest and standing and hearing your national anthem playing,” said James, who last spring became the first player in Davie High history to hit .400 as a freshman. “Wearing those three letters just made me want it more for my country and made me want to win and play the best I could.”In Team USA’s opening game, it obliterated South Africa 29-0 in four-and-a-half innings. James went 2 for 3 with five runs and two RBIs. He batted second in this By Brian PittsEnterprise Record An undefeated opponent - West Forsyth - never tested the Davie tennis team in Clemmons on Sept. 6. The War Eagles, who squeezed out a pair of 5-4 victories over West in 2021, were considerably better than the Titans in an 8-1 rout. While West fell to 5-1 overall and 4-1 in the Central Piedmont Conference, Davie rose to 6-0, 4-0. “This is the most complete match we’ve played all season,” coach Collin Ferebee said. “I didn’t think we played very well against Reynolds. We played great top to bottom against West.”The Titans won at No. 1, but they were hit by a tidal wave from 2-6. Karlie Quinn (6-2, 6-2), Tru Koren (6-2, 7-5), Sarah West Marklin (6-2, 6-1), Leslie Newsom (7-6, 6-3) and Bailey Aderhold (6-3, 6-0) put on quite a show. Even the one loss saw an in-spired effort from Elliot New-some. She played fearlessly in 6-3, 6-1 defeat to junior Samantha McEachran, the two-time CPC sin-gles champion who has never lost a regular-season match. Newsome, who went 13-2 as a freshman, had a 10-match winning streak stopped by the ferocious opponent. “Elliot played Sam hard,” Fere-bee said. “It wasn’t a drubbing like most people would have expected. I definitely think Sam is a (future) D-I player. Elliot came off the court and said she played like crap. I said: ‘Elliot, you just played Sam super hard. I know you’re used to winning, but you’ve got nothing to be upset about.’”Davie poured it on in doubles. Quinn/Koren won 8-4 to run their record to 5-0; Newsome/Newsom won 8-3; and Marklin/Aderhold won 8-4 to stay perfect at 4-0. It was a fantastic day for Quinn, who improved to 6-0 in singles by taking down Vivian Do and then teamed up with Koren in doubles to beat McEachran and Do. “Karlie played a really good No. 2, and she just destroyed her,” Ferebee said. “And then Karlie and Tru beat Sam and Vivian in doubles, and I don’t think I’d seen Sam lose a doubles match before.”It was another impressive out-ing for the freshman.

Wildlife Resources Commission to establish two surveillance zones with regulations aimed at thinning the local herd and keeping the disease from spreading to other areas.Also, the commission announced several weeks ago that outbreaks of hemorrhagic disease have been documented in the Piedmont, northwestern mountains and the Foot-hills. EHD is often fatal to deer that are infected by tiny, biting flies that get in their noses, principally in hot, wet summers. The dis-ease fades out as soon as the weather cools, and it’s generally gone by the first freeze, but it often has an impact on the number of deer available in an imme-diate area.The state’s longest con-tinuous archery season is in the northwestern zone, end-ing Nov. 4. Archery season in the western zone is in two parts: the first ending Oct. 2, then Oct. 16-Nov. 20. The central archery Bowhunters across North Carolina hope to intercept the makers of big tracks like this one as archery sea- son opened Sept. 10. Planting of supplemental foods like clover and other legumes can im- prove habitat for lots of wildlife spe- cies. - Photos by Dan Kibler season ends Oct. 28, and the northeastern and south-eastern archery seasons end Season bag limits in all five zones are six deer, with a maximum of two antlered bucks. Either-sex seasons differ, in some cases, on a county-by-county basis.Last season’s statewide harvest was 168,427, a slight decrease over the 2020-21 season. The top two counties in terms of to-tal harvest were Randolph with 4,422 and Anson with 4,104. Bowhunters accounted for slightly less than 8% of the total harvest. They will likely be the only hunt-ers with the opportunity to take an antlered buck still in velvet. Bucks general-ly shed their velvet in late September as the breed-ing season appears on the horizon; I walked up on a 6-point buck in full vel-vet walking my son’s Lab in some woods within the Raleigh city limits this past Saturday. The statewide opening of archery season in North Carolina is generally the second Saturday in Sep-tember, at approximately the same time that a great majority of whitetail fawns have been weaned and can survive on their own if their mother is killed. Through the years, biol-ogists have told hunters that early season doe harvests are much preferred over late-season doe harvests because the size difference between adults and fawns is so great that hunters rarely take fawns by accident – as they do later in the season when fawns have gained another 20 pounds and can easily be mistaken for adult does. Plus, removing does from the population early in the season cuts down on the number of animals that have to split food sources, often allowing deer to enter the winter in better health.Habitat improvement seminarLandowners and hunt-ers interested in improv-ing acreage for wildlife – which includes an awful lot of people these days – can get some great tips for habi-tat enhancement at an event later this month sponsored by the Yadkin Valley Wild-life Federation.Wildlife biologist Nick Prough will hold a semi-nar on improving upland wildlife habitat on Satur-day, Sept. 24, in the fellow- ship hall at Faith Church at 1078 Gumtree Rd. in Win-ston-Salem. The seminar will run from 10 a.m.-noon and be followed by lunch. There is no charge.Prough has been chief wildlife biologist for the Quail and Upland Wildlife Federation since its forma-tion in 2009. Before that, he worked for Quail Unlimited and the MIssouri Depart-ment of conservation, help-ing manage wildlife habitat for landowners large and small in several states. He has won numerous awards in his 28-year career.Pre-registration is re-quired by calling or texting Don Stroud at 336-682-3456.

They had to play a man down the last 19 minutes, and that’s when the wheels came off. “They were bigger and they moved the ball well,” Rebollar said. “They would work it from one side to the other.”A fifth straight win lifted Reynolds’ record to 5-2-1. Continued From Page B1“Near the end of the game, it went off one of our guys,” McBain said. “He was trying to clear it, it hit off the side of his foot and went in the goal.”Nonetheless, it was a gratifying moment for the War Eagles. “The (Reynolds) coach said: ‘For years we have beaten Davie handily. Davie was always an easy push-over. This is the first time we’ve been threatened with a loss,’” McBain said. McBain spoke glowingly of Guver, Jake Kittleson and Jase Orrell. “Guver has delicate skills,” he said. “He’s got advanced ball skills. We put Jake in the backfield and he was outstanding there. Nobody got by him. He was shutting people down. He’s an aggressive kid. He wins everything in the air even though he’s only about 5-feet tall. Jase just runs like he’s got no heartbeat. He just keeps going. He’s really the backbone of our club right now. He’s not the high-skilled player that he’s going to be someday, but he’s so well conditioned.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 15, 2022 - B5 this game; he batted lead-off in his next seven games. While James played short-stop for the War Eagles, he played exclusively in center for Team USA. “Going into team trials, our leadoff spot was a little bit uncertain, as was our spot in center field,” Briese said. “Coy is a natural in-fielder, but we put him in the outfield to see how he would take to it. He took to it really, really well. He kind of looked like he was going out for long touchdown passes when he was running balls down.”“I really liked it out in center,” James said. Something magical hap-pened the next day against Venezuela. When Venezuela retired the first batter in the bottom of the seventh, it was looking pretty bleak for Team USA as it trailed 4-1. “We talked about win-ning a gold medal from the very beginning, and I’m sure some people had it in the back of their mind: ‘Are we going to have our hopes and dreams dashed in the second game of the tournament?’” Briese said. James stepped up with one down and singled down the right-field line. That ignited an unbelievable comeback. The next three batters walked. Then came an infield hit. After a pitch-ing change, a single up the middle gave the Americans a walk-off win. James went 3-4 with two runs. “Magical win,” Briese said. “It would have hurt (to lose that game). We would have been playing out of the losers’ bracket.”Team USA cruised in the next two games. It crushed Guam 13-1 in the only game in which James did not bat. He did come off the bench to finish the game in center field. One day later, James sparked a 15-4 romp over Puerto Rico. On the sec-ond pitch of the game, he slammed a homer to left. “His growth and devel-opment in the last year really served him offensively - to the point where his bat was a real tool this year,” Briese said. By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Beating Phoenix Acade-my, North Carolina Leader-ship Academy and Ellis was one thing. Beating Wesleyan Christian Academy was quite another. It’s been a huge turn-around for the North Davie soccer team. After years of futility, after years of getting obliterated by Wesleyan, the Wildcats are riding high at 4-0. “We played good in the previous three games, but we got to really see what we are capable of in this game,” coach Daniel Gamble said after the 5-4 victory. “The guys had a fire and a hunger to get this win that we’ve been building towards for three years.”Two days earlier, the Wildcats mercy ruled Ellis in the first half, 9-0. While visiting North was playing its third game, it was the sea-son opener for the Jaguars. Kellan Wiles had a hat trick, Hector Rodriguez had two goals and North got one from Brian Barragan, Max Rappaport, Alex Ser-rano and Hunter Stephens. Stephens and Manny Perez had two assists each, while Rodriguez, Wiles and Bar-ragan had one apiece. The North-Wesleyan showdown at North on Sept. 8 was a big test for the Wildcats, who passed in spectacular fashion. They surged to a 5-2 lead before the Trojans mounted a rally. “Wesleyan has embar-rassed us pretty bad in the past, so it was a pretty big thing for us to win today,” Gamble said. M. Perez played a vital role with three goals. “Manny is always one of our solid guys, but I don’t know what got into him today,” Gamble said. “He just caught fire. He had a target on his back because he was one of the guys they were fouling multiple times, and he ended up getting injured and had to leave the game with seven or eight minutes left. He hustled, fought through it and ended up being in the right place at the right time. One of his goals was a beautiful header on a corner kick.”Rodriguez and Wiles also scored for the Wildcats, who led 2-1 at halftime and never trailed. Wiles (two) and Stephens combined for three assists. Wesleyan scored back-to-back goals to cut the North lead to 5-4 with five minutes left. But North held on and celebrated a sweet victory. “It shouldn’t have been that close, but my guys ral-lied toward the end,” Gam-ble said. “We almost scored a couple more times.”Midfielders Stephens, Ronald Perez, Wiles and M. Perez; defenders Jaden Godbey, Gabriel Bello, Josh Baker, Gio Bartolo and Bar-ragan; and sweeper Dylan Cassetta came up big for North. “We controlled probably 75 percent of the game pos-session-wise,” Gamble said. “The midfield, defense and everybody were working together probably the best we’ve ever worked together. Dylan was a major force in transitioning from defense to offense.”And oh by the way, North won without two starters (Ethan Christie and Rap-paport). “Ethan and Max were sick, so we didn’t even have them,” he said. “I imagine if we’d had them, it might have been a bigger gap.”Notes: South Davie soc-cer lost 8-0 at Wesleyan on Sept. 6.

That’s when it hit a speed bump, losing 12-6.But the next day against Panama, James rescued his team in the bottom of the seventh and Team USA staged its second walk-off win. James’ golden moment came with his team trail-ing 5-4 with one out and nobody on. He blasted a homer to left to force extra innings, Team USA pushed across the clinching run in the eighth and James went 3-3 with three runs and two RBIs. “That was a huge mo-ment for us in the tour-nament,” Briese said. “I think that helped steady the emotions and the chemistry of the team. If we’d lost to Panama, we would have most likely been playing for the bronze. Once Coy hit that home run, it was like: ‘OK, we’re going to be fine.’”“That’s one of the mem-orable moments so far in my life - down 5-4 in a must-win game if we want to keep our hopes up to make the gold medal game,” James aid. “I’m down 1-2 in the count and get a fastball high. Off the bat I knew it was gone. Running around the bases, nothing else felt better. We shut them down and walk it off - it was amazing.”Team USA had no trou- ble with Chinese Taipei on Sept. 2, breezing 10-0 as James went 2-3 with two runs. When Team USA met Cuba on Sept. 3, the good guys had to win to reach the championship game. It was a meaningless game for Cuba, which had al-ready clinched a berth to the gold-medal game. Laser-fo-cussed USA cruised 11-1 to set up a rematch with the Cubans for all the marbles. “Cuba knew they didn’t have to win to get into the gold medal game, so they saved a couple of their main pitchers,” Briese said. “We had to win to get in, so we went out there with every-thing that we had.”The showdown for the gold on Sept. 4 was a dif-ferent story. Cuba trotted out three strong arms. Team USA took a 2-0 lead by scratching in the first two innings, but it would get pushed to the limit as Cuba responded with a three-run third. It was 3-3 in the fifth when Team USA mounted the winning rally. Cuba made a pitching change after a leadoff single. The new pitcher walked James. A sac bunt moved the runners to second and third, and an intentional walk loaded the bases. Team USA scored on a fielder’s choice to go in front 4-3. It would hang on for dear life. Team USA reliever Zane Burns retired the side in order in the sixth, and he struck out the first batter of the seventh before run-ning into trouble. A single and two walks loaded the bases. Briese walked to the mound and summoned Ryan Harwood. Harwood struck out back-to-back batters, seal-ing a riveting win and send-ing fans and players into delirium. “I’ll be honest with you, I think the team really be-lieved that we were going to win the gold medal,” Briese said. “I think they believed we were the most talented team there and it was just a matter of going out and performing on the field.”James earned tournament MVP by ranking first in runs (15); tied for first in hits (12) and homers (two); second in slugging percentage (.880); third in average (.480); tied for third in RBIs (eight); fourth in on-base percentage (.588); and fifth in steals (four) and at-bats (25). Two players from Venezuela hit .500, but they both had few-er at-bats than James, who went 12 for 25, hit safely in six of eight games, drew six walks, struck out just three times and played error-free defense in center. James is the epitome of even keel. “He’s a cool kid,” Briese said. “He’s a calm customer. He never got too up or too down. When he was in the dugout, he would come sit by the coaches and hang out with us. He was awesome to talk to and fun to hang out with.”His baseball future looks impossibly bright. “It’s going to take him somewhere special, I can tell you that,” Briese said. “After that tournament, I think he’ll have his choice of schools about where he wants to go. I think I know where he’ll end up, but he could go anywhere he wants.” SMITH GROVEFarmers Market Every Saturday • May – October • 1-3:30 PM Smith Grove UMC 3492 U.S. Hwy. 158 • Mocksville, NC 27028 Products from local Farmers and Artisans Visit with Community Agencies on-site each week Food Vendors • Musicians • Kids Activities (Tobacco and Alcohol Free Campus) www.ourdavie.com The Wildcats cherish a hard-fought win over Wesleyan.

B6 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Sept. 15, 2022 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The Ellis football team has run roughshod over its county rivals. After blitzing North Davie in the second half of a 40-6 decision, the Jaguars were firing on all cylinders throughout a home game against South Davie on Sept. 7, rolling 40-0. South blasted Ellis 40-0 and 42-8 a few years back, but the Jaguars have won the past four meetings by an aggregate 90-6. The Tigers fell to 0-2 on the season. Ellis’ attack got prolific production from running back Braxton Bowling (10 carries for 120 yards), quar-terback Brandon Forrest (11-80 rushing) and running back Elijah Chaffin (6-60 rushing). Forrest scored two of the six touchdowns on runs of 18 and 40 yards. Run-ning behind linemen Jon-athan Hanes, Sammy An-gell, Braylon Arnold, Evan Helms and J’seire Arnold, Dashel Desnoyers (5-yard run), Cannon Smith (8-yard run), Chaffin (8-yard run) and Bowling (46-yard run) scored once each. Another Ellis highlight was Forrest’s third-and-long completion to Landon Hughes, who gained 45 yards on the play. Ellis’ defensive stalwarts were Chaffin (12 tackles, fumble recovery), Bowling and J. Arnold. “Braxton played awe-some on defense,” assistant coach Kendall Chaffin said. “(J. Arnold) played defense with a lot of passion. He had several tackles for loss.”Even though the Jaguars look far superior to their county rivals, Chaffin be-lieves the Davie High future is bright when the three schools come together to form one team in the coming years. “I thought South Davie had a great offensive line with size,” he said. “These teams are going to look very well together at Davie. These three middle schools should be producing a lot of wins for Davie in the future.”This matched the largest victory in the Jaguars’ 16-year history. They blanked Brown 40-0 in 2014.

Ninety-Nine schools from North Carolina and Vir-ginia, nearly 3,000 runners and thousands of spectators witnessed something tru-ly amazing. Music filled the air, fireworks exploded overhead and 10 races over a period of four hours showed why you have to experience high school cross country to fully understand how special the sport truly is.Davie was represented by 33 athletes spread over five of the 10 races with several of them competing in a high school cross country meet for the first time. The varsity boys competed in the Invi-tational Division under the lights in one of the featured races and came away with a 10th-place finish among the 32 schools registering team scores. The lone senior on the War Eagle roster, Owen Whisenhunt gets promotedCarson Whisenhunt of the Giants did not spend much time in the rookie league. After throwing two scoreless innings with five strikeouts in a 7-3 win over the Cubs, the lefthander was promoted to Single-A San Jose on Aug. 30. And the second-round draft pick was successful in his California League debut. In 2.2 innings, he gave up no runs, walked none and fanned five. The three hits he allowed were all infield hits. 2 birdies for Sakai Emerson Vanzant shot 6-over 42 at Winding Creek on Sept. 7. The Davie senior has been so good that the 6-over was actually her worst score of the season. Although sophomore Kate Sakai shot 57, she enjoyed a pair of birdies. “Kate absolutely has potential,” coach Bob Donley said. “She just needs consistency.”The War Eagles finished third for the second time in two Central Piedmont Conference meets. The team order: West Forsyth 8-over 116, Reagan 117, Davie 158, Mt. Tabor 166, Reynolds 176, East Forsyth 190, Parkland 199, Glenn 200. Varsity volleyball splitsCPC juggernaut Reagan dealt Davie’s varsity volleyball team its fifth loss in six matches on Sept. 6. The scores were 25-8, 25-15, 25-5. The visiting Raiders, who haven’t dropped a set all season, improved to 10-0 overall and 3-0 in the league. Two days later, the War Eagles pounded winless Mt. Tabor at home (25-7, 25-15, 25-5). Davie improved to 4-5, 2-2. Tabor, which has lost 18 of 19 sets on the year, fell to 0-6, 0-4. JV volleyball wins twiceAfter losing three of its first four matches, the JV vol-leyball team picked up two wins last week. Against Reagan, the War Eagles rallied for a 20-25, 25-17, 15-12 victory. Coach Tabatha Lyons said Grace Ratledge is her most consistent hitter. She added that “we had good serving runs from Carleigh Croom and Cora Nicholson.”Davie (3-3 overall) improved to 3-1 in the CPC with a 2-0 win over Tabor. “One of our setters went home sick and we had to run a new lineup,” Lyons said. “Lanah Kruger really stepped up and did a great job setting across the front row.” Reach your audience wherever they are: on desktops/laptops, tablets & smartphones.

MAIN STREET • MOCKSVILLE, NC (336) 751-2120 Sulecki, paced the Davie effort with a new personal record (PR) time of 17:30 to claim 34th place in a field of nearly 300 finishers. Tyler Hill was next in 40th with a PR of 17:36, while soph-omore Thomas Essic was hot on his heels with a PR of 17:46 and a 48th-place finish. Ethan Lakey con-tinued his strong freshman campaign by claiming 75th in 18:11, while fellow fresh-man Logan Zuleger rounded out the scoring with a huge PR of 19:28 to finish 138th. That time was 55 seconds faster than his debut two weeks ago at the Providence Invitational.Will Allard was the next Davie finisher in 20:00 and was followed by a trio of War Eagles who all regis-tered personal best times. Jackson Sulecki crossed the line in 20:11, followed by Aric Boles (20:13) and Slade Keaton (21:36). Chris Devicente was Davie’s final varsity runner clocking in at 22:08. In all, seven of the 10 Davie runners in the varsity race turned in all-time best performances. ••• In the varsity girls race, Davie elected to enter just three runners but each of them turned in excellent performances. Freshman Lexi Marion again led the way with a 45th-place fin-ish in 21:56, a time that was 59 seconds faster than her debut effort two weeks earlier. Gracie Spicer ran her second-best-ever time over the 5k distance as she finished 54th with a time of 22:20. Raelyn Lankford also had a strong performance as she crossed the line in 25:05, which was nearly a minute faster than her time earlier this season. The girls did not register a team score as they did not have five entries in the race.•••Freshman Riley McNeil was the lone entry in the JV race. Her time of 25:21 was a significant improvement of 1:44 off her previous best. Davie also had several en-tries in the two-mile devel-opmental race with several of them experiencing a high school race for the first time. Stella Frye, Brianna Givens, Jordan Kistner, Isabell Kit-tleson, Emilia Marks, Clara Phelps, Maggie Smith and Reily York all completed the race for the War Eagles.Davie was represented by six runners in the boys JV race with four of them turning in PR’s. Freshman Brayden Kistner made his debut and led the War Eagle effort with a time of 20:47. Next across the line were sophomores Noah Shore (21:10) and Adam Brown (21:18), who each turned in personal-best times. Fresh-man Caswell Moore was next in 21:35, an improve-ment of 1:06 from his pre-vious best. Hayden Key (22:10) and Jake Hannah (23:50) were the other Davie JV entries. Davie was repre-sented in the developmental boys two-mile race by Wade Bomar (ninth in 14:30), Ja-cob Patton, Tristen Rissew and JD Cunningham.•••“This was an amazing event and most of our run-ners consider FNL to be the meet they most enjoy during the season,” said coach Rob Raisbeck. “Eight of the top 10 individual boys in the state and most of the top girls were present. We also got a look at the Cuthbertson girls team who are currently ranked No. 6 in the country. It’s really amazing to see so many talented young people in the same place at the same time.“Coach (Jeff) Jones and I thought our kids ran very well from top to bottom. We had seven PR’s among our 10 varsity boys as well as four more personal bests among our six guys in the JV race. We have a bunch of freshmen showing dramatic improvement in only a few weeks. Our three girls in the varsity race all ran well with Lexi having a great race. And Riley McNeil had a huge improvement in the JV race. We ran her in that race purposely since it was only her second race, but she will run the varsity races the rest of the way.”The War Eagles return to action Sept. 17 at the Hare and Hounds Invitational in Charlotte. “This is the first time we have run this meet,” said Raisbeck. “There will be over 70 teams there from multiple states and we are interested to see how much we have improved after opening the season on the same McAlpine Park course we raced at in late August.” Thomas S.

Bob is staying in Raleigh to help with Jayden while his mother is visiting her family in the Philip-pines.Recently, I was a patient at Atrium Health Wake For-est Baptist, Davie Medi-cal Center. My stay there was very gratifying, and I feel that Davie people are fortunate to have such an outstanding facility. I was so pleased to have two out-standing Davie people care for me. There were perhaps more, but there were two who were the children of people I worked with in the Davie Schools. One was my night nurse, Janna Seamon, R.N., the daughter of Jer-ry and Jane Seamon of the Davie Academy communi-ty. Jane worked for many years as a teacher assistant at Cooleemee Elementary. Janna is not only a registered nurse but also a caring indi-vidual. The other is Luke Naylor, P.A. who is indeed a fine physician’s assistant. He seems to cover the en-tire hospital at least part of the time. He certainly did a fine job caring for me. Both of his parents worked with me while I worked for Da-vie County School: Tammy Naylor, who was the finance officer, and Todd Naylor, who was in charge of the buses. Luke graduated at Carolina and then did his physician’s assistant train-ing at Wake Forest Baptist Medical School. Luke, his wife, and baby live near Farmington. I worked for Davie Schools for many years, and it always makes me so happy when Davie students excel.My friend, Jane Tester-man of Mooresville, visited me at Davie and then went to visit a friend who was in an Atrium Hospital in Char-lotte. She called me back and said, “You don’t realize how lucky you are to be in that beautiful hospital in Davie County.”The West/ Tutterow/Bur-chette/Cujas families are en-joying having a new baby in the family. Those of us who do not have to spend night- time hours caring for her are extremely proud of Birdie Frances Burchette, now a bit over 2 months old. Birdie is my fourth great-grandchild, which makes me feel old, but that old age means that I can just enjoy the baby in-stead of caring for her daily needs. My other precious great-grandchildren are: Re-ese Tutterow, a junior at Da-vie High; Harper Tutterow, in her last year at Ellis Mid-dle; and Joseph Burchette, a first year student at Ellis.The death of Queen Eliz-abeth has kept me glued to the television. The Queen is just six years older than I am. I kept up with her as she grew up through newspa-pers, magazines, and radio. There was no television un-til after I was grown. I saw her playing with her sister, driving an ambulance during World War II, marrying her prince, becoming queen and having a family. Of course, television has made it easier to follow the queen’s family and activities. She remained a calming presence during Betty West holds her great-granddaughter, Bird- ie Frances Burchette. personal and national crises and for that I have admired her. I feel a bit like I have lost a friend. Breakfast Saturday at Wesley Chapel Methodist Nannie Lue Eudy Hollar will celebrate her 106th birthday Saturday, Sept. 17.
