Instead of a music director, God had differ-ent plans. After working at the college for 10 years, he became in-volved with a street preaching ministry in Winston-Salem and was asked to preach one day. That’s when he met Bud Ridenhour, one of the founders of the Victory Baptist Church in Cooleemee. In the summer of 1982, Harbour started helping VBC part time and became full time that same year in the fall. New churches meet where they can until they can build. Property had been purchased but in the meantime, the town’s only shopping center provided a space, as did a building on US 601 and Ridenhour Arbor. The Rev. Shelby Harbour preaches his last sermon as pastor at Victory Baptist Church in Cooleemee. - Photo by KC Smith After 40 years in pulpit, Shelby Harbour retires The first building on the Midway Street property was the fellowship hall. It cost $110,000. The church had saved $50,000 and the remainder came from donations, paid back with interest. They agreed to build with block so when they built the sanctuary it would be the same brick. They were in the fellow-ship hall for about 3-4 years and with membership grow-ing, the church needed more space. That additional space cost $400,000 and the bank wouldn’t approve the loan. Rob Foster went to bat for the church and they paid the loan off in 10 years. Retiring and leaving the church debt free is a good feel-ing, Harbour said. Johnny Oceguera has been assistant pastor and will step up to fill Harbour’s shoes. “I would like to thank him for all he’s blessed us. As a friend, he’s the most humble man to meet in a sense of his service and attitude. He helps anyone he can help. He’s shown that through his actions and his work.”Oceguera will lead the church by following God, who he says is the ultimate leader. “It’s amazing where he has taken this place in those 40 years. We appreciate him and his family. God’s grace is a mission for everyone of us,” says Bud Ridenhour.Nikki Cranfill wishes to thank him for everything he has done for the church. Ray Kepley says he has called him in the middle of the night and he came and sat with him at times he needed him. “I see him every week, he’s very generous and accepted me into the family from day one,” said Will Crisp.Amy Myers Kapp said: “I love you very much. I’m so thankful for you being there for me during all my health problems and what you have done for my family. Enjoy your retirement.”The church honored the Harbour family with a recep-tion at the church and Mike and Jim Spry hosted a meal Please See Pastor - Page 8 A fun time at the parade What’s better than a Christmas parade?

She was unable to do any activities of daily living for herself except to slowly eat while lying in bed and had a persistent head-ache and initially mild confusion. Nick and I did round-the-clock shifts with her, and gradually she could sit up.She wanted to get her hair washed, but I did not believe she could get into the truck even with help. She proved me wrong, so we took her in the wheelchair, and she sat long enough to have her hair done. Lorene and Charles Mark-land invited us to have Thanksgiving dinner with them, and she was able to go and sit up and eat but was exhausted by the time we got home, and we all slept when we returned.The meal was delicious, and it was good to see Doug and Jean Markland, Lorene’s sister and her husband, Charlie, Paige, and Eli, along with Paige’s mother and grandmoth-er. The table settings were beautiful, and we celebrated Charles’ birthday, which fell on Thanksgiving. We have been friends since first grade. It was good to spend time with friends as we had been confined to the house. Ken and Brad had daily visits or calls to check on Faye, but she wanted Nick to provide most of her care. As I walked around to each of the six groups to see how they were doing, two women came walking toward me, tears in their eyes, arms around each other. They just happened to be in the same group, and through one of the questions, they had figured out that they were first cousins. They had played together as children, and one had moved away for several decades. They had both married, changed surnames, and changed appearances through aging. But through this activity, they had found each other. KindnessBy Julie Terry CartnerMarti sighed in relief as she looked at the crowded restaurant. Black Friday could go either way in the food world, but this year, business was booming. As she waited for an order, she discretely rubbed her tired feet. Daria hadn’t shown up for work again that day, leaving the entire floor for Marti to cover. At least the tips were good, she thought, and the regulars at Food Coma were understand-ing, seeing that she was flying solo again. They were like family. Marti knew them all by name and their favorite spe-cials, and they knew her. The others were being patient too, for the most part. She mentally calculated her tips. Getting closer, she thought. Probably need ten more to pay the rent, then hope-fully she’d make enough more to buy her son, Jake, the bicycle he so desperately wanted. Christmas miracles, she prayed. As she gathered the order and rushed to the waiting table, she automatically pasted her smile back on her face. She enjoyed her job, interacting with customers and mak-ing their days a bit nicer. She was just tired. To the editor:On Nov. 15, I was at home along and started having symptoms of a stroke. Once I realized what was hap-pening, I called my wife and daughters and they called 911 for me.The first responders were at my side within five minutes of my daughter calling 911. They were amaz- ing and professional, while also caring for our family and helping them get to the hospital.Thankfully, the stroke was light and I was released a few days later. We want to publicly thank the EMS for their outstanding care.Abe Weaver and familyMocksville EMS, 1st responders do amazing work To the editor:I would like to bring awareness and the prevalence of workplace violence within healthcare, as the severity and occurrence have continued to increase drastically over the past few years. With ongoing and increasing shortages across healthcare, staffing related, pharmaceuticals, or supplies, healthcare workers are faced with heavier workloads, sicker patients, and all while dealing with the intermingling of workplace violence – leaving the recipients of various forms of vio-lence in search of an avenue of safety and a listening ear to their voice of concern and continued frustration. From an outsider, the thought of violence in healthcare may sound farfetched; however, adding in the pandemic-associated stressors across the population, forms of work-place violence are happening more often than you may believe. According to the American Hospital Association, recent studies show that 44% of nurses reported being the recipient of physical violence and 68% of nurses reported verbal abuse during the COVID-19 pandemic. Not only does workplace violence cause direct physical and psycho-logical injury, but it can also hinder the delivery of patient care - perhaps this still seems trivial, that is unless you are the patient that is impacted by the recent actions of another patient, family member, visitor, etc.Why is this important? Healthcare workers need your support. While there are laws in place that protect airline employees from assault from passengers, there are no federal laws in place to pro-tect healthcare workers from the same assault and verbal abuse. As a local nurse, I am asking for your support in cre-ating awareness of workplace violence across healthcare, as instances of violence continue to occur. As you may be aware, a fellow North Carolina health-care colleague succumbed to related injuries just a few short months ago ... a human life lost to violence inflicted while providing care. In showing your support, you are do-ing your part in raising awareness and helping to take care of us.Cindy Gwyn, Mocksville Violence on healthcare workers increases To the editor:If you weren't at the Brock (Performing Arts Center) last Saturday night, you missed another beautiful Christmas concert sponsored by the Davie Arts Council. Leading off the program were the Pivettas, husband and wife duo playing piano and flute, respectively. Federico Pivetta was a perfect complement to his wife Debra's lilt-like flute renditions of such favorites as “The 12 Days of Christmas” and “A Child is Born.” She has the ability to make her flute come alive.Following the Pivettas was Kevin Jasper, minister of Stokesburg Methodist Church, whose tenor voice resonat-ed throughout the auditorium with heart-felt favorites like “What Child is This?” and “Silent Night.” When he sang “Mary Did You Know?” I was glad to be in the audience.A goose-bump experience for sure. Tess and the Black and Blues band of five rounded out the program with lighter Christmas songs like “Rockin’ Round the Christmas Tree” and “Hard Candy Christmas,” which had some of us toe tapping. peaking to Tess after the concert, I confirmed that she and her band are the ones who entertain us in the summer oin the square.Bill Campbell was the master of ceremonies, challeng-ing the audience to answer questions to his corny jokes. He appeared between acts wearing different Christmas sweatshirts. A couple I remember said "Santa's Favorite" and "Tallest Elf." Bill is obviously comfortable in front of an audience, most of whom know him.Kudos to Sidnee Suggs and the Davie Arts Council for entertaining us (for free) last Saturday night and with sum-mer concerts at Kinderton. We are truly blessed.Linda Bradford, Mocksville Arts council Christmas program beautiful She appreciates all the friends who have inquired about her and kept in touch with Nick. The Methodist Church has kept in touch through Lorene and the minister, Kendra has helped with baths and visits on her days off, and Tiffany and Jaden have paid brief visits also. Gail Frye baked her a pound cake that we all loved, and Kathy Cornatzer made her chicken soup. I am returning to Oriental on Friday. Wednesday, Faye has an appointment with her primary physician, and we hope to get a plan in place, so Nick has help when I leave.A contractor has done work on my condo while I was here, and I am eager to see it and am also preparing to go with Kendra to Florida for Christmas and Vann’s wedding. I had hoped to visit several friends who are in nursing fa-cilities, and catch lunch with others, but it will have to be next year.Life is unpredictable, so we must cherish all our family, friends, and blessings. Some of them have had recent life changes that are difficult for them, so I am keeping Judy Howard, Bill Evans, Bob and Betty Potts, Ruth Latham, and Frances Warren in my prayers and asking prayers for Faye and Nick. CoincidencesBy Marie CraigWhen we lived in Oconee County, S.C., I was presi-dent of an Extension Homemakers Club in the mid-70s. There were about 50 members – most of whom were origi-nal residents of this northwest county who hadn’t ventured out much. They were sweet, thoughtful women who all loved each other. When the meeting was over, they would stay and stay visiting with their friends. We had wonder-ful times making quilts, sharing recipes, and learning more about homemaking and each other. At that time, there was an emphasis on learning the metric system. This is the only thing I saw them refuse to learn. Maybe they knew it wouldn’t happen anyway.Usually, the County Extension Agent would present a program, and the other times, it was up to our members to be the teachers. One week, at the last minute, the agent told me that she couldn’t come to teach a class. So, I did some quick planning after a prayer to create an activity that would be meaningful. We met in an old schoolhouse in a big room and sat in a big circle. After the business meeting, I had the women to count off: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. All of the one’s took their chairs and made a small circle. The twos did likewise, etc. I had a piece of paper for each group that had questions like: “What is my earliest memory as a little girl; what is my least favorite chore; what is my suggestion for improving housekeeping…” They gladly complied and were soon having a great, noisy time discussing these topics going in turn around their circles. Watching the Mocksville Christmas Parade for the first time in years on Saturday brought back memories. I had covered the parade for the newspaper for many years, but in recent years that job has gone to others.I stayed home.Why? Things to do.I should have come to the parade.Watching the parade and the crowd that lined the streets on Saturday reminded me that we live in a wonderful com-munity. There were all kinds of folks - rich and poor and multiple races - standing and sitting side by side, smiling and enjoying Christmas. Many came dressed for the sea-son. I didn’t hear anyone mention anything political. And the children were filled with excitement. You could see it on their faces. Some of us adults tried to hide it, but we were excited, too.And while the parade may lack those big, inflated bal-loons and corporate-made professional floats, it has some-thing much more important - the essence of community.At times, it looked as if those in the parade were having more fun than those on the sidelines. Many of the folks watching knew at least one person who was in the parade, which always makes it more fun for both sides. There’s nothing like seeing the thrill on a child’s face from a parade float when they hear a grandparent yelling their name from the side. They light up. So do the grandparents. The Mocksville Christmas Parade is kind of like a Hall-mark movie coming to life (I’m sure there were some ter-rific women there with the wrong men while the right man is right in front of their eyes.).One thing is for sure, any child or adult who left Sat-urday’s parade without a pocket full of candy just didn’t want any candy. It was everywhere. It made me wish I had invested in Dum Dums or Sour Patch Kids years ago. The kids didn’t seem to mind the kind of candy. They grabbed whatever was tossed their way.Yes, the Mocksville Christmas Parade showcases our community. I guess it takes the birth of Our Savior to bring folks together.If you missed it, don’t dismay.Advance will have its version on Saturday morning. And it’s always a lot of fun. Cooleemee will celebrate with its parade the following Saturday afternoon.Attend both. You won’t regret it.- Mike Barnhardt DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 8, 2022 - 3 This scripture message brought to you by these businesses who encourage you to worship at the church of your choice. I f any of you lack wisdom, let him ask God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.(James 1:5) 4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 8, 2022 Renegade ... Continued From Page 2But still, Marti knew a positive attitude, kind smile, and genuine interest in others made a pleasant experience for everyone. No one ever knew when her smile might be the only one someone might see that day. Besides, in four hours she’d be off, and then she’d be able to play with Jake, her seven-year-old son. Jake, who was filled with good-ness, Jake, who still believed in the magic of Christmas, was her reason to get up every day. Marti was determined to protect that innocence as long as possible.Re-tying her apron, Marti approached the next customer with her trademark smile. “Hi, I’m Marti, and I will be your server.” The man, a stranger, who barely grunted a reply, ordered water, vegetable soup, and a sandwich. He wanted the tomato on the side, two lemon slices for the water on a separate plate, and he wanted exactly three ice cubes. He returned his soup two times, claiming it wasn’t hot enough, then complained when the now steaming soup burned his mouth. Despite his demands, Marti maintained her smile as she took care of him and her other customers.“Hi Sam. How’s your wife? She greeted the man in the next booth. Hearing that the woman’s surgery had gone well, she smiled. “I’m so glad, Sam. It will be a joyous Christmas for you both.”At another table, she congratulated Patsy on her son’s success the night before. “Thirty-two points and eleven rebounds? You must be proud!” And so her shift contin-ued, Marti spreading good will even as her feet throbbed, screamed, and threatened mutiny.Back to the stranger, she offered apple pie. “It’s fresh and homemade. My boss bakes every morning.” Earl and Bob interrupted, calling out, “Hey Marti Mae, don’t sell off our pies!”Laughing, Marti replied, “Oh guys, you know there are plenty.”Intrigued by the banter and Marti’s unfailing smile, he ordered the pie while listening to the dialogue around him. It didn’t take long to realize Marti was well loved, and de-servedly so. She was unfailingly kind and interested in ev-eryone, even grumpy him. A short conversation with Sam and Patsy, and he knew enough – single mother trying to save for a bicycle for her son.He'd come into the restaurant angry after getting the PI’s report on his wife’s affair. In a rare moment of brutal honesty, he knew it was, at least partly, his fault. So busy chasing another dollar, another client, another job, he’d ne-glected his wife, constantly not showing up as promised, always putting her last.She could have talked to me, maybe, if I’d given her a chance. Then with a sigh, he acknowledged, I didn’t. I can’t save my marriage, but maybe I can be a better hu-man. Fingering the $2,000 bonus check he’d just received; he made a decision. He pulled it out, endorsed it, and wrote that amount on the tip line of his bill. He added a note, “One good tip deserves another. The pie was delicious. Merry Christmas, Marti!” Then he slipped out the door un-noticed, perhaps a wiser and kinder man.

From its inception, the Gilliland Foundation has supported Davie County not-for-profits and other charitable endeavors in nearby counties by giving their time and resources. Steve and Diane Gillil-and believe in giving back to the community and help-ing those who need it most. Their altruism mission is based on the philosophy that no matter what you face each day, you must re-main determined to find a way to bring joy and hope to the people around you. The foundation’s two ar-eas of focus are support for children battling cancer and helping to improve the lives of the underprivileged. As part of their annual November “Giving Cam-paign,” the foundation pre-sented A Storehouse For Jesus with a check and 200 hand-loomed beanie hats. The foundation’s 2022 Spring and Fall Cornhole Tournaments, hosted at Raylen Vineyards & Win-ery, allowed them to pur-chase two backyard play-sets for children during treatment who are battling cancer. On Saturday, Nov. 5, 17 Gilliland Foundation vol-unteers helped breathe love, hope, and joy into the life of a 2-year-old by building a backyard playset in States-ville. Lucas is being treated at Brenner Children’s Hos-pital as part of the pediatric oncology program. “Many children are ad-mitted to start treatment im-mediately, and everything else comes to a screeching halt,” said Diane Gilliland. 62 nd Year Great Prices Throughout The Store!

A time for play Gilliland Foundation builds for a cause “It’s a moment no parent can be prepared for.”Because of this, the Gil-liland Foundation also do-nates “Ready Bags,” which include everything a family might need for their unex-pected hospital stay. This includes toiletries, a blan-ket, a journal, a tablet com-puter, and more. “These essentials are helpful and message to each family that they are not alone as they begin this journey,” she said. With the support of local businesses, the foundation has given more than 2,000 hand-loomed beanie hats, provided backyard playsets for multiple children, con-tributed several ready bags, and donated $20,000 to bring joy and hope to peo-ple who need it most. “There are no paid em-ployees at the foundation, and the board members and volunteers trust they can be the brightness in the tunnel so that people can see the light at the end of it and, ultimately, the way out. The goal of the Gilliland Foundation is to provide joy and hope to make life bet-ter in some way for people less fortunate. They want to improve lives, help people envision a better future, and take the steps necessary to make it happen,” she said. Matt Schwirtz and Tom Harding, along with Brian Myers, volunteer on the project. Gilliland Foundation members build a playground for boy with cancer. DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 8, 2022 - 5 According to Giving USA, individual giving accounted for 80% of all charitable giving in 1991; in 2021 it dropped to 67%. That is a challenge for non-profit organizations, said Jane Simpson, presi-dent and CEO of the Davie Community Foundation. “Most nonprofits in our community depend on an-nual gifts from everyday people in our county. “So how do we bridge the gap? At the Davie Commu-nity Foundation, we believe in endowments. Nonprofits with a Davie Community Foundation endowment have annual support. And that can mean they have ad-ditional resources for mak-ing a difference in Davie County. Endowments can also bridge the gap for or-ganizations when charitable giving is down.”Here are a few examples of endowments that donors created to continue their legacy of support for a spe-cific organization:• The John and Anike Fuller Fund was created by the Fullers to support Cool-eemee Elementary School where their children attend-ed, and Anike volunteered for many years. • The E. and L. Martin Fund (Davie County Public Library - Martin-Wall His-tory Room) was created by Lester and Elizabeth Mar-tin to keep Davie history alive for future generations through the library.• The Linda Fromal “Sun-flower” Fund was created by Linda’s family and friends to provide perpetual support for kindergarten children at Pinebrook Elementary whom Linda loved and sup-ported as a teacher assistant before her death.• The V.B. Lougee Fund was created by V.B. Lougee to provide support for those in need through the min-istries of A Storehouse for Jesus.• The Davie County Young Life Endowment was created by Bill Roesel for perpetual support of Da-vie’s Young Life program.• The Dragonfly House Endowment was created by Ann Dyson to provide per-petual support for the work of the Dragonfly House.You can add to an orga- nization’s existing endow-ment with a gift in any amount, at any time. Visit dˆ (Grants – Church & non-profit Grants) to see a list of organizations with endow- ments. Or you can work with the foundation to create a fund to benefit your favor-ite organization. Give cash, appreciated stock, or other Endowments at the Davie Community Foundation have been created by Linda Fromal, Lester and Elizabeth Martin and Ann Dyson. Endowments help non-profits continue to help assets. You can even include a gift in your will or trust to create an endowment. “In a changing and un-certain world for nonprof-its and their donors, a gift to endowment is a gift that lasts forever,” Simpson said.Contact Simpson at 336-753-6903 or jsimpson@da-viefoundation.org.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 8, 2022 - 9 By KC SmithCooleemee Correspondent First graders at Coolee-mee School were excited, well behaved and loved all things happening at the Zachary House on Friday, Dec. 2.The Cooleemee Histori-cal Association received all Cooleemee kindergarteners for the teachings of 1930s Ole Time Christmas in Cooleemee. Many antique toys were waiting to be examined and played with by each student upstairs where the library used to be. Several of the toys had to be demon-strated on how to play with them. No one in the group knew what a “Slinky” was and thought it was cool. The little girls are always attracted to the dolls and iron, and one doll was off limits because of how frag-ile it was. A group of boys were taught how to play “Jacks”, not an easy game but they hung in there and didn’t give up. The xylophone was played many times, pulling the string of a train to follow behind, and I don’t care how many times the crank of the “’Jack in a Box” was turned, the children always jumped and screamed.In the days of high tech-nology, they were actually having a lot of fun playing with toys made of wood, metal and virtually no plas-tic.The children sang Christ-mas Carrols while the piano was played. Full attention was on Su-san Wall as she taught the children how to cut a hole in an orange, place a pep-permint stick in the hole as a straw and the juice of the orange would come up through the peppermint stick. With repeated warnings of not using the knife them-selves, they were to ask a parent to cut the hole and then they could enjoy the drink.I overheard a child say, “yea, it would be fun if you had one.” I bet when they found an orange and pep-permint stick in their paper bag or “poke” they were happy. Each child received a poke to take home. I told one teacher the chil-dren were so well behaved, her response was with a smile, “this is very rare.” Each student hung their handmade ornament on the cedar tree and tossed real cotton on the tree to look like snow. A child asked where the lights were and they learned in 1930 there was no elec-tricity. What a wonderful tradi-tion the CHA provides for the kindergarteners each year. A big thank you to all the volunteers for all their hard work and to the teachers for taking the children for a short walk to learn about Christmas traditions in Cooleemee in the 1930s.The museum is in the Zachary House on Church Street in Cooleemee, open on Tuesdays from 1-4. The volunteers welcome you to see all the pictures, artifacts and more. Feel free to contact me at 336.250.1133 or www.cool-eemeenews@gmail.com. I would love to hear from you.

Lynne, Director of Coin and Currency for National Mint and Treasury. That’s because North Carolina res- idents can really cash in for the next 48 hours. Here’s why. Non-state resi- dents and those who miss the 48-hour deadline must pay $8 per coin, but North Carolina residents who take the Vault Bricks cover just the $4 per coin state minimum. That means North Carolina residents get all 125 coins with rare 24 Karat Gold Layer- ing for just $500 which is a real steal since non-state residents must pay over $1,000 for each Vault Brick. And it gets even better for those claiming the Jumbo Gold Vault Bricks. This is all happening because thou- sands of U.S. residents stand to miss the deadline to claim the gold. Now any resident who finds the first three digits of their zip code listed in today’s publication and calls to verify it gets to claim the Gold Vault Bricks for themselves and keep all the valuable gold found inside. And here’s the best part. North Car- olina residents who find the first three digits of their zip code listed in today’s publication are getting Sealed Vault Bricks containing the only North Car- olina State Gold Bank Rolls known to exist with the exclusive State Restricted Design and each loaded with rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Buffalo Nickels layered in valuable 24 Karat Gold by National Mint and Treasury. “As Director of Coin and Currency for National Mint and Treasury, one of my jobs is to deliver breaking news. And today’s announcement confirming the release of Sealed Gold Vault Bricks to residents of the state of North Carolina is as big as it gets,” Lynne said. “So my advice is this, anyone who gets an opportunity to get their hands on one of these Gold Vault Bricks full of coins issued by the U.S. Gov’t nearly 100 years ago with rare 24 Karat Gold layer- ing from the National Mint and Treasury better jump at the chance while they still can,” Lynne said. “These Gold Vault Bricks make the most impressive gifts for Christmas, birthdays, graduations, weddings, and any other occasion, especially for that hard-to-buy-for person,” Lynne said. According to Ms. Lynne, since thou- sands of U.S. residents stand to miss the deadline to claim the gold, today and tomorrow are intended as a “special 48 hour release” for the benefit of North Carolina residents. This gives them a fair chance to claim the Sealed Gold Vault Bricks and all the valuable gold loaded inside for themselves. But, Ms. Lynne added, “The Sealed Gold Vault Bricks are only available as inventory permits during the special 48 hour release so please do not miss the deadline.” The director added, “We have no power to stop coin dealers, resellers or collectors buying up all the Gold Vault Bricks they can get their hands on,” Lynne said. ”We already know the phones will be ringing off the hook. That’s why hun- dreds of agents are standing by to answer the phones beginning at 8:30am this morning. We’re going to do our best, but with just 48 hours to answer all the calls it won’t be easy. So make sure to tell everyone to keep calling if all lines are busy. We’ll do our best to answer them all,” Lynne said. “That’s why National Mint and Trea- sury set up the State Distribution Hotlines in order to make sure residents of North Carolina can get them now,” Lynne said. The only thing readers of today’s newspaper publication need to do is make sure they live in one of the zip codes listed and call the State Distribu- tion Hotlines before the special 48 hour deadline ends midnight tomorrow. ■ NATIONAL MINT AND TREASURY, LLC IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH THE U.S. MINT, THE U.S. GOVERNMENT, A BANK OR ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY.

Everyone who does is authorized to claim sealed Vault Bricks loaded with the only North Carolina State Gold Bank Rolls known to exist for the lowest ever $4 per coin minimum set for North Carolina residents - non-state residents and those who miss the 48 hour deadline must pay $8 per coin, if any remain. ■ FIRST LOOK INSIDE GOLD VAULT BRICKS:Shown above is a sneak peak inside the Gold Vault Bricks. The Gold Vault Bricks are loaded with North Carolina State Gold Bank Rolls containing U.S. Buffalos each layered in 24 Karat Gold. The phone lines will be ringing off the hook beginning at precisely 8:30 am this morning. That’s because North Carolina residents can really cash in for the next 48 hours. Here’s why. Non-state residents and those who miss the 48-hour deadline must pay $8 per coin, but North Carolina residents who take the Gold Vault Bricks pictured above cover just the $4 per coin state minimum. That means North Carolina residents get all 125 coins with rare 24 Karat Gold Layering for just $500 which is a real steal since non-state residents must pay over $1,000 for each Gold Vault Brick. And it gets even better for those claiming the Jumbo Gold Vault Bricks. ■VALUABLE: RARE 24 KARAT GOLD LAYERING ■RARELY SEEN:ISSUED BY THE U.S. GOV’T NEARLY 100 YEARS AGO Answering Your Questions Q: How much are the Gold Vault Bricks worth? A: It’s impossible to say, but these Buffalos date clear back to the early 1900’s and are not ordinary U.S. coins. That’s because only an extremely low percentage of Buffalos were then commissioned by National Mint and Treasury to be covered with rarely seen 24 Karat Gold Layering, then sealed and protected in brilliant collector condition inside special 25 count North Carolina Bank Rolls. That’s why you better hurry if you want to get your hands on them. Collector values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees. But we do know they are the only North Carolina State Bank Rolls known to exist. So anyone lucky enough to get their hands on these sealed Vault Bricks should hold onto them because there’s no telling how much they could be worth in collector value someday. Q: Why are so many North Carolina residents calling to get them? A: Because they are the only North Carolina State Bank Rolls known to exist we’re bracing for the flood of calls. These are not ordinary Bank Rolls. These are full Bank Rolls containing 25 Buffalos dating clear back to the early 1900’s. Best of all each Buffalo is layered in 24 Karat Gold and the state minimum set by National Mint and Treasury is restricted to North Carolina residents who find the first three digits of their zip code listed in today’s publication and beat the deadline only. That means North Carolina residents cover only $4per Buffalo when they claim the Gold Vault Bricks, which is just $500 for the next 2 days. Q: How do I get the Gold Vault Bricks? A: The only thing North Carolina residents need to do is find the first three digits of their zip code in today’s publication and call the State Toll-Free Hotline at 1-800-280-4564 Ext. GNH1312 before the deadline ends. Everyone who does is getting the Bank Rolls for just the state minimum. That’s a sealed Gold Vault Brick containing the only North Carolina State Bank Rolls known to exist each loaded with the rarely seen U.S. Gov’t issued Buffalo Nickels layered in valuable 24 Karat Gold for just the $4 per coin state minimum set by the National Mint and Treasury, which totals just $500 for the full sealed Gold Vault Brick. That’s a real steal because state residents and non-state residents who miss the deadline must pay $1,000 for each sealed Gold Vault Brick if any remain.

She was born June 3, 1954 in Rowan County to the Claude Thomas and June Marion Hicks. Ms. Hicks grad-uated from Davie High School. She was a juvenile court counselor in Davie County in 1970, and implemented Youth Encounters and was an advisor for Teen Court, before attending law school. Prior to attending Wake Forest Universi-ty, she had worked for the Davie County Sheriff’s Department. Ms. Hicks graduated from Wake Forest University with a degree of Juris Doctor in December 1982. She became a member of the NC Bar Association in Au-gust 1983. It was in that same year that she opened her law firm where, through the years, she took on many cases to try to help protect the rights of the less for-tunate. Ms. Hicks was a lifelong member of First United Meth-odist Church Mocksville where she enjoyed singing in the chancel choir and the praise band, teaching Sunday School, helping with VBS and many other activities of the church; such as single-handedly building the history room. She was a certified lay speaker of the Methodist Church and spoke at numerous churches as a lay speaker. Ms. Hicks was a member of the 4-H advisory board.She had served on several committees for Boy Scouts, had been a den mother, assistant scout leader for Mocks-ville Cub Scout Pack 574, Boy Scout Troop 505, as well as supervising numerous outings and events. Perhaps she is best known for her work with the Veter-ans. In 1997, while working with the scouts, she realized there was not a local Veterans Day ceremony; so she orga-nized the first one, which consisted of a few people on the Square and the scouts standing with their hands over their hearts. The event has grown larger over the years with music and dozens of observers honoring all Veterans. Ms. Hicks always remained humble through the years, prefer-ring to mention those who helped make the event special, from music from the high school band, to the young men who played taps, to Col. Terry Hales leader of the Davie County ROTC and many others. She felt it necessary to thank those who had served for our freedom. Ms. Hicks knew the event would continue since the event had been so well supported.She was awarded The Order of the Long Leaf Pine in January 2017, one of the most prestigious awards given by the governor for exemplary service to the state and com-munity above and beyond the call of duty.Survivors include: sons, J.J. Byerly and Will Byerly; and several cousins.A funeral service was conducted at 11 am., Thursday, Dec. 1 at First United Methodist Church with Rev. Lori Anne Bowen officiating.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 8, 2022 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record This was only the fourth game of the season, but the buzzards were already circling during the Davie JV girls basketball team’s home game against West Rowan on Nov. 30. Not only was Davie 0-3, it looked bleak after the third quarter as Davie faced a 36-24 deficit. So how did the War Eagles re-spond to that daunting challenge? They scored more points in the fourth (25) than they scored in ei-ther of the first two games (21 and 23) and won in shocking fashion, 49-45. “After (the West Wilkes loss), Hope addressed the locker room and told them: ‘We need some heart. We need you to bring some heart to this team. If you’re not bringing heart, then don’t come back,’” coach Lamar Russell said of his new assistant coach, Hope Grimes. “I’m going to tell you, that fourth quarter was a lot of heart. These girls left everything on the floor.”The War Eagles had no chance in the first two games, but they flirted with victory against visiting JV girls storm back for win West Wilkes on Nov. 29. They trailed 21-19 going into the fourth. They were held to three points in the fourth, though, and lost 37-31. Carleigh Croom had nine points and Britany Hernandez eight. America Stockton had five. Kaylee Lynch, who missed the first two games with an injury, made her season debut with five points and 12 rebounds. Tasia Tarpley had four points, five rebounds and five steals. “We gave it away in the third, but we did play better,” Russell said. “We’ve just got to maintain. We played really well in the first half. We clawed back in the fourth and took the lead, but we didn’t play smart defense and fouls killed us (three girls fouled out). They were in the double bonus in the third quarter and that was a killer.”Davie 49, W. Rowan 45The Falcons scored 17 of the 24 points in the third to take the 36-24 lead. But that bad quarter was erased by a fantastic fourth that saw Davie seize victory from the jaws of defeat. “They poured it on us (in the middle quarters),” Russell said. “West Rowan is a great team. For us to get our first win against West Rowan, that’s big. That’s one of the biggest wins I’ve had (in two years at Davie).”Croom delivered in a big way, scoring 22 points to go with five rebounds and three steals. It was a quite a performance from some-one who had a high of 10 during her freshman year. It was a major breakout for someone who aver-aged 5.6 in the first three games. By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Davie’s varsity wrestling team added to its early-season success in the Jim King Invitational at Orange on Dec. 2-3. After fin-ishing second and first in earlier tournaments, the War Eagles took fourth out of 23 teams despite only filling spots at 126, 132, 170, 182, 220 and heavyweight. But all six guys earned at least two wins. Davie’s 112 points were only bettered by Cary (183), Cardi-nal Gibbons (150) and Northwood (122). The other participants were Testa, Godbey take first at Orange Orange (106), Fuquay Varina (98), Middle Creek (97.5), Panther Creek (97.5), Apex (84), Webb (81), Southern Durham (53), Riv-erside (52.5), Enloe (51), Western Alamance (46), East Chapel Hill (41), Eastern Alamance (41), Bart-lett Yancey (40), Millbrook (40), Durham School of the Arts (27), Northern Durham (19), Jordan (16), Chatham Central (12) and Voyager Academy (4). “We wrestle just like we prac-tice,” coach Perry Long said. “They make young mistakes, but we practice hard and we wrestle hard.” Hunter Testa is off to an incred-ible start at 182. The junior went 4-0 with four pins at Orange to run his record to 12-0. Included are 11 pins and one win by disqual-ification. That means he’s scored maximum points every time he’s hit the mat. Davie coaches said before the tournament they don’t have to worry about Testa staying moti-vated. “He takes it one match at a time,” Long said. Brysen Godbey had a typical day at the office, going 3-0 to claim first at 220. Even though he usually gives up 20-plus pounds, he’s 8-0 on the season. “He actually moves better now,” Long said. “He practices with Testa a lot and you can see him moving better on his feet. He knows by being light he can’t get caught underneath those guys. But he’s going to outwork them and his footwork is better than most of the 220s.”“He’s more athletic now,” assistant Mark McKnight said of Godbey. “He’s used to wrestling 220; he’s lighter and quicker now.” Please See Duo - Page B6 Please See Storm - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The Davie varsity girls bas-ketball team showed its upside and downside in a pair of home nonconference games last week. The War Eagles destroyed West Wilkes by 49 points on Nov. 29. One day later, they were disman-tled by 52 points by unbeaten West Rowan. In the 57-8 win over West Wil-kes, Peyton Spaugh and Malayka Rankin further solidified their credentials as defensive warriors. Spaugh, a junior guard, plays with her hair on fire and tries to squeeze the life out of opposing ball handlers. She was two buck-ets from a triple-double as she accumulated six points, 11 steals and 10 rebounds. She had five steals in the first quarter alone. She pulled down three rebounds in one second-quarter possession. Most opponents who are forced to deal with Spaugh wind up shaking their head in frustration, and Spaugh broke a Blackhawk’s Spaugh a thief in rout Please See Spaugh - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record A 3-0 start in nonconference play for the Davie varsity boys bas-ketball team is not a promise of anything over the next two months. It doesn’t mean the War Eagles are ready to win the Central Piedmont Conference. But the 3-0 mark is no small thing for a team that has two seniors, four juniors, three sophomores and one freshman. “I’m proud of them,” coach Josh Pittman said after a 62-59 home win over West Rowan on Nov. 30 that wasn’t decided until the clock hit 0:00. “Nobody expected us to be 3-0 at this point.”Jackson Powers, who was coming off a 26-point second half against West Wilkes, and Hayden Williams gave Davie an early spark as they banged 3-pointers on the first two trips down the floor as Davie burst to leads of 10-2 and 15-4. But give credit to Will Givens and a hungry West Rowan team. West responded with a 25-10 run. When Givens hit a 3 as he falling out of bounds, the Falcons had a 29-25 lead. But Davie regained the momentum because Hayden Williams hit big 3 after big 3. He followed Givens’ off-balance 3 with a triple of By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Coach Josh Pittman went to tongue-lashing measures at half-time of the Davie varsity boys basketball team’s home game against West Wilkes on Nov. 29. Then Jackson Powers went nu-clear. The combination inspired a 68-60 comeback win. The War Eagles had a rough showing in the first half. They missed 21 of 30 field goals. They clanged all but two of their 12 3-point attempts while falling be-hind 31-21. Powers and Coleman Lawhon are essential for Davie’s prospects in 2022-23, but they had a combined five points on 2-of-9 shooting at intermission. “It seemed like we reverted back to dropping our head after making mistakes and we were giving up 3s,” Pittman said. “If you see a guy that’s a shooter, all Varsity boys streak to unexpected 3-0 record Powers takes over, scores 29 Reserves show perfect timing Please See Reserves - Page B5 the coaching in the world is not going to matter if you’re not alert. I told them: ‘You beat them (77-45) last year; they’ve got pride. If you don’t think they’ve got pride, we’re in trouble.’ I was curious to see how they would respond (to getting ripped at halftime). They responded in a heck of a way.”“He was yelling at us about No. 32 hitting 3s, and he wanted us to be more aggressive,” Powers said. Davie flipped a switch. In the third quarter, W. Wilkes’ 10-point lead disappeared like a rack of ribs at a Saturday get-together. The War Eagles were in front 83 seconds into the second half. Powers hit back-to-back 3s, both assisted by Ethan Ratledge. An Ian Koontz steal led to a driving layup by Ratledge, who turned an ankle on the play and left for good with 7:03 left in the third. Lawhon hit a step-back 3. Lawhon scored on a steal/layup to complete a 13-0 run in a span of 2:32. The Blackhawks did not roll over. They recovered to take leads of 36-34, 39-36 and 45-44. That’s when Powers rose to the moment and took the game by the throat. Showing his versatility, he followed an inside basket with a 3-pointer. Powers threw an outlet pass to Lawhon, who assisted his cousin Braddock Coleman on a fast-break layup. A Lawhon rebound led to a three-second fast break that saw Powers drain a 3. When Powers hit another 3 moments later, he held out his hands and shrugged as he jogged toward the other end of the court, a la Michael Jordan in Game One of the 1992 NBA Finals. Powers’ spectacular stretch wasn’t over. He received an in-bound pass from Lawhon and swished a 3. Lawhon got a defen-sive rebound and pushed upcourt.

The horses for this young team are Aidan Szewczyk, Marcus Fortune, Laz Smith, David Hicks, Isaiah Leon-ard and Leighton Reavis. The Tigers were blown out 76-29 at home by Mooresville on Nov. 29. Hilton gave credit where it was due. “They were a good, ex-perienced team, and I’ve got a lot of first-year guys in the lineup,” he said. South fell just short, 60-48, in the first of two match-es at Lenoir on Dec. 1. West Alexander took advantage of a shorthanded South. “I was missing a few starters; I had a few out sick,” Hilton said. “If we’d won one more match, it would have been 54-54.”In the second match in Caldwell County, the Tigers collected nine pins and beat Upcoming Games Wednesday, Dec. 7Davie varsity girls basketball at Atkins at 6Thursday, Dec. 8North Davie basketball at home vs. Millennium at 4:30South Davie basketball at Canterbury at 4:30Ellis basketball at home vs. Phoenix Academy at 4:30Friday, Dec. 9Davie varsity basketball at home vs. Reynolds at 6:30/7:45Davie JV basketball at home vs. Reynolds at 4/5:15Davie wrestling in tournament at Fort Mill (S.C.) at 4Davie swimming vs. W.

It can’t have been 50 years.On Dec. 2, 1972, I swung my $100 Reming-ton deer rifle and $75 Red-field scope – the latter was top-of-the-line at the time – at a 6-point buck that had seen me at just about the same time I’d seen him. He took off up the Massanu-tten Mountain in Shenan-doah County, Va., and I did everything I could to put the crosshairs on deer hair, then squeezed the trigger.The deer didn’t flinch, didn’t slow up, didn’t show any real sign that my 150-grain Remington slug (a box of 20 was $4.76 at Front Royal Supply) had hit home.My heart beating wild-ly, I waited a few minutes, then got up from the cedar tree I was sitting against and went down through the woods to take a look. I had a pretty good idea about one mountain laurel bush the buck had passed on his way to safety, and I walked straight to it.It was covered in bright, red blood. I looked a lit-tle bit more, and I found some more blood. At 16, I thought of only one thing: go get my father.Sitting about 400 yards up the mountain to my northwest, he had heard the shot and thought it came from close to where I was sitting, at the corner of a big, fallow pasture, looking down into a deep hollow – I $70GET Offer valid 11/16/22 – 12/9/22 via Visa® Reward Card 1 or Visa® Virtual Account 2 after online submission* with the purchase of four new MICHELIN® passenger or light truck tires. the michelin ® Crossclimate ®2 tire2 tire *Reward Card or Virtual Account eligibility is limited to tire purchases from participating dealers only.

Ten minutes later, we were back at the moun-tain laurel bush. As we worked our way slowly up the mountain, there were some patches of snow from a Thanksgiving storm, and every once in a while, the white stuff would be splashed with blood. I was so worried that maybe I hadn’t made a good shot and this deer was going to get away.“Don’t worry,” my fa-ther told me. “Look,” he pointed at two big splashes of blood about 5 feet apart. “He’s bleeding out of both sides. We’re going to find him.”A moment later, we topped out a little rise, and there, laid out against a sapling, was a buck that had two more points than I had thought. We raced to it. There were hugs all around, some jumping up and down, serious rejoic-ing. The deer had gone 94 yards from the spot where he’d been shot.We field-dressed him on the spot, my father show-ing me the deer’s insides (he grew up a farm boy and had dressed plenty of farm animals) and point-ing out the bullet’s wound channel – both lungs. We dragged him to the edge of the field, and my dad went back to his car, a 1970 VW Beetle, and drove up to the deer. We tied it on the back bumper and headed to the check station. The buck weighed 126 pounds, field-dressed, at the general store in Seven Fountains, Va. It never crossed my mind that my dad might want to stay in the woods and hunt the rest of the day; it was our second hunting season, and neither of us had killed a deer before. I think he was just as excited as I was. We drove the 90 minutes home, directly to the Tysons Corner Locker Plant, where we filled out some paperwork and left the deer to be turned into steaks, chops and venison burger.Fifty years ago. Yet I re-member it like it was yes-terday. That .308, now old and with a beat-up stock but carrying a Leupold Vari-X III, has accounted for several dozen deer. I get almost as excited now when a buck or doe visits my deer stand; I had four does and two 4-point bucks walk past, as close as 8 yards, this past Saturday.I have seen my dad as excited as he was that December morning only one other time: when he dropped the tailgate on his old Ford Ranger about 16 or 17 years ago to show me the 3-point buck that was my son’s first deer. Right there, in front of stand No. 3, we hugged and danced and yelled and loved each other the way only fathers and sons could understand.I can’t believe it was 50 years ago. If the Lord will give me another 10 or 12 years on this earth, I may be able to dance and hug and yell and love all over my grandson’s first deer.If that’s not part of your plan, Lord, I’ll understand. But it doesn’t keep me from hoping.Record bear;Record speckled troutI’ve got news for the people from Texas. Every-thing isn’t really bigger in your state.North Carolina pro-duced two huge specimens in the last six weeks, one a fish, one a mammal, that will stand up against any-thing the Lone Star State has to offer.On Oct. 18, the sec-ond day of bear season in western North Carolina, 21-year-old Caleb Henry of Fries Creek killed the big-gest black bear ever tagged in the state’s mountains, a 695-pound specimen from Haywood County.Henry and hunting bud-dy Lucas Teague were bear hunting with four dogs when the dogs struck two different bears. They fol-lowed Teague’s two dogs because they thought the bear they were trailing was bigger. It bayed shortly thereafter and climbed a tree. Henry shot him with a .35 Remington.The previous record NC mountain bear weighed 688 pounds. In general, the bears in North Carolina’s coastal plain grow larger than their mountain cous-ins, owing to a lot of agri-cultural crops to eat and not having to climb mountains for a living.North Carolina’s record black bear – reported to be the biggest black bear on record, from anywhere – was an 880-pound Craven County bruin taken in 1998 by Tennessee hunter Coy Parton, who happens to have a famous cousin who is a country music legend.Now, to the fish. Cathy Jones of Belhaven caught an enormous speckled trout that will likely wind up as the IGFA women’s world record.Jones’s huge speckled trout, caught in the Pungo River, weighed 11 pounds, 3 ounces, at Washington’s Eastside Bait & Tackle. The huge fish, which hit a live menhaden, was 33½ inches long and 18 inches in girth. It’s the second re- cord-setting speck caught in North Carolina waters this year. Todd Spangler of Merritt landed a 12-pound, 8-ounce speck on Feb. 9 that broke North Carolina’s long-time state record.Saltwater striper regsThe N.C. Marine Fish-eries Commission, meet-ing late last month, adopt-ed Amendment 2 of the Striped Bass Fishery Man-agement Plan to attempt to end overfishing of estuarine striped bass.The vote establishes a 51,216-pound harvest lim-it on the Albemarle Sound and Roanoke River Man-agement Areas. It imple-ments an 18- to 25-inch slot limit in the Albemarle Sound Management Area for recreational and com-mercial fisheries. It retains the 18- to 22-inch slot limit in the Roanoke River Man-agement Area. It requires non-offset, barbless circle hooks while fishing live or natural bait in the RRMA from May 1-June 30.It maintains the gill-net closure in the upper Tar-Pamlico and Neuse River systems through 2024 and maintains a no-possession rule in the Cape Fear River. Remembering that first deer harvest, 50 years later The writer with his first deer. Fortune a huge find for South Davie wrestling Lenoir 66-42 to even their record at 2-2. The pinners were Austin Samuels, Dreighton Lun-nerman, Szewczyk, Smith, Xander Proctor, Leonard, Brandon Pastor, Hicks and Fortune. Szewczyk, an eighth grader who went 15-0 last year at 98 and 106, seeming-ly can’t be stopped at 120. “He walks around at probably 113. If he was in high school right now, he’d probably be at 106 (for Da-vie, which doesn’t have a 106-pounder),” Hilton said. “There’s a lot of high school kids ranked high in the state that he’s already beaten at 106 (in tournaments).”Fortune feels like found money at heavyweight. The first-year eighth grader’s development is beyond ex-citing. “Between the scrimmag-es and extra matches, he’s wrestled five times and all five have been first-period pins,” Hilton said. “He’s 244 and built like a tank. He’s solid muscle. It’s crazy how strong and fast and powerful this kid is. He’s throwing kids around. Man, he gets after it. A lot of heavyweight matches are boring, but he pushes the pace, is ag-gressive and you better be ready to go as soon as you step on the mat with him. I’ve never seen anything like it. I’ll wrestle him in practice. When I’m on top of him trying to pin him, he just bench presses me off of him. I’m 144 but it’s hard to bench press somebody off of you when you’re laying on them like that.”And then there’s Smith (4-0 at 126), Hicks (4-0 at 195), Leonard (3-1 at 160) and Reavis (1-1 at 98). “Laz is starting to take it to a new level,” he said. “He knows all the moves. He’s growing so much and he’s a really good leader. When he watches matches, he’s coaching kids. He real-ly helps everybody. He’s a tough kid at 126. “When those six walk out on the mat, it’s more than likely going to be six points for us.”NDavie UnbeatenThe Wildcats feasted on Starmount and Forbush in a tri-meet at Forbush on Dec. 1. They won 90-12 and 72-36, respectively. Domi-nating everyone so far, the 36-point spread against For-bush was the closest margin during North’s 3-0 start.

Call Today 336-751-2120 B4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 8, 2022 Continued From Page B1“I looked at Hope and said Croom’s about to have a really good game,” Russell said. “And it kept falling for her. We tried to feed her as much as possible.”Lynch and Hernandez came up big. In the final 30 seconds, Lynch stepped to the free-throw line with Davie behind 45-44. She drained both to put Davie ahead. Croom hit a free throw to make it 47-45. Her-nandez broke West’s back by hitting an outside shot for the game’s final points. Hernandez scored all 11 of her points in the frantic fourth, marking her third double-figure effort in four tries. Lynch combined eight points with her rebounding prowess (12). “That was a confident shot (by Hernandez),” he said. “(Lynch’s rebounding) is a big part of why we have this win.”Notes: Tarpley contribut-ed seven points, six boards and four steals. Stockton had one point. ... Davie weath-ered 38 points and four 3s from West’s do-it-all star. “She’s an amazing player,” Russell said. “She should be on varsity. She was shooting it from the volleyball line.” Storm ... Continued From Page B1spirit at the end of that three-rebound possession. When Spaugh wrestled away the third rebound, the Blackhawk who lost the bat-tle gave Spaugh a two-hand shove in the back, resulting in an intentional foul and two free throws for Spaugh. “When we go one-on-one or do a defensive drill, Peyton is on the opposite team of the other guards because I feel like she’s the best on-ball defender in our conference,” coach Lindsey Adams said. “If you can practice against her ev-eryday, you can handle the on-ball pressure from other teams. She has no off speed. Spaugh ... When she steps on the court, she’s ready to go.”Later in the second quar-ter, Spaugh was on the left wing when Davie fired a shot. The miss caromed to the opposite side of the court. Spaugh chased down the rebound all the way over on the right wing. Then she promptly assisted a Bailey Aderhold 3-pointer. When the first half ended, Spaugh had eight rebounds, eight steals and two assists. Her scoring numbers will seldom capture the impact she has on a game. She scored six points against West Wilkes on five shot at-tempts, so she was efficient in that area as well. Spaugh relishes being a defensive hornet. “That’s my favorite thing,” she said. “It just comes easy to me. I like to take the ball from people and make them angry. It makes it easier on every-body else because they start fouling more. I’ve always been good at defense. I’ve gotten better at shooting, but it’s still not where I want it.”Rankin is another junior who plays with boundless energy. Her line for the game was typical: six points, seven steals, four rebounds. “Her on-ball pressure may not be (at Spaugh’s level), but she anticipates passes, rebounds and is able to push the ball out,” Adams said. “That’s how we’re able to play so fast.”Aderhold, who has shown a lot of promise in becoming a perimeter sniper in the not-too-distant future, had a breakout game with 11 points on 3-of-6 shooting from 3-point range - this after scoring a total of two points in the first two games. The freshman nailed a triple just seconds after checking into the game in the first quarter. “Bailey has shown me that since the summer when we went to Liberty,” Adams said. “She had not hit a 3 going into this game. Yes-terday and today, we talked about settling, handling the atmosphere around you and still knocking it down. She’s lights out in practice, but we hadn’t been able to see it in a game. But I think she’s getting in her comfort zone.”Davie’s proven shoot-er, senior Somer Johnson, continued her strong start with her third straight dou-ble-figure scoring game. Like Aderhold, Johnson scored 11 points by hitting 3 of 6 3s. She also had four steals, three assists and two blocks. Johnson had eight points in a first quarter that saw Davie hit 8 of 13 shots and carve out a 23-2 lead. Sydney Dirks had eight points. Kenadi Gentry had eight points, four rebounds and two steals in her junior debut after missing the first two games. Keelyn Oakes had five points. Lauren Col-amarino had two points and seven boards. “When teams are pres-suring us, Kenadi will run point,” Adams said. “When teams are not, Peyton runs point and gets Kenadi in a position to score. She’s another scoring threat and ball handler.”In the first half, Oakes contributed to Davie’s de-fensive clinic by taking two charges in less than a minute. “We have a toughness drill where you have to be on help-side defense, slide over and take a charge,” Adams said. “I roll the ball to the other end of the court. They have to dive on the floor af-ter it, and then they have to make the layup. If they miss the layup, they have to go back in the drill. You have to do all of those correctly to get out of the drill. Other than that, I keep screaming, ‘beat them to the spot and take the charge,’ because we’re not shot blockers.” The War Eagles, who led 35-2 at halftime and 46-6 after the third, romped to their largest win in seven years. (In 2015-16, they beat Parkland 75-26.) Fittingly, the margin was 49 over W. Wilkes, which beat Davie by 49 in 2019-20. Johnson, Dirks and Oakes were var-sity freshmen when Davie absorbed a 68-19 beating from the Blackhawks. “My girls have never beaten a team like that,” Adams said. “My first year, I told them we’re going to be on the other side. We’re going to get running clocks. They had never been able to experience that side (of a running clock).”Notes: Davie improved to 2-1, while W. Wilkes fell to 0-2. ... Starmount beat West 69-52. ... Spaugh dou-bles as a competition cheer-leader. “Some days I’m doing basketball from 3:45-5:45 and then go straight to cheerleading from 7-9,” she said. “I don’t really rest some days.”WR 77, Davie 25The War Eagles won’t play anyone equal to what they saw on Nov. 30. West Rowan has stars galore. The Falcons, who are 3-0 this year after going 77-28 over the past four full seasons, led 20-6, 52-12 and 68-21 at the end of the first three quarters. Davie is on the right track, but the Falcons have overwhelming talent. Five of their players have scored 20-plus points in a varsity game. They returned the top seven players from a year ago; plus they picked up a transfer from Salisbury. They won their first two games by 38- and 25-point margins and they have the 3-A title in their sights. Davie’s points came from Gentry (six), Rankin (six), Aderhold (five), Dirks (four), Colamarino (three) and Johnson (one).

Williams, who has gone from deep backup as a ju-nior to deadly bomber as a senior, went on a personal 8-0 run in the third quarter to lift Davie to a 39-34 lead. Two Falcons ran at Coleman Lawhon, the trap leaving Williams open in the left corner. His fifth straight successful shot - all 3s - gave Davie a 49-43 lead. Williams finished with 23 points on 6-of-9 shooting. Six of his seven 3-point attempts changed the scoreboard. He also had 4 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals. “It was team basketball, playing for each other, mak-ing the right read and getting it to the guy who is making shots,” Pittman said. Powers, who had 16 points on 6-of-10 shooting, had a key spurt when he buried a 3 and then posted up, went up with authority and scored as he was falling down to put Davie ahead 53-49. “With his size, he has to be able to do both (score inside and outside),” Pittman said of the 6-6 soph-omore. “He has to be a post presence and he can always shoot the 3. If he sets up his post game first, everything else is kind of easy for him.”Although Williams and Powers combined for 62 percent of Davie’s points, three reserves delivered in big moments. • Braddock Coleman, a sophomore guard, was drib-bling on the perimeter with a defender stuck to him like a $39 suit. His father, Jesse “Bubba” Coleman, was a ball-handling whiz for Da-vie in the early 1990s, and Reserves ... Continued From Page B1He looked like he was going to pull up for a jumper but instead dished to Powers, who banged yet another 3. Davie had counterpunched West into submission, 63-47. Here’s what’s outrageous about that 19-2 run: Powers had 16 of the 19 points. After going 1 for 5 for three first-half points, Powers nailed 10 of 12 shots to score 26 second-half points. “I didn’t really do much (in the first half); I’ll admit that,” Powers said. “In the second half, I really turned it around. It was like heat check after heat check and I was making them all.”The 6-6 sophomore had those 29 points on 11 of 17 overall shooting and 6 of 8 3-point shooting. He made his last eight shots and add-ed 10 rebounds, three blocks and two assists. What a cool moment for a guy who aver-aged 2.7 points as a varsity Powers ... By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Davie’s JV boys bas-ketball team hung up 162 points in 56 minutes - the JV is playing seven-minute quarters when it’s part of a quadrupleheader - in two home games in two days last week. Whoa. Eighty-two one night, 80 the next. How incredible is that? “We’re deep and we’ve got shooters,” coach Tracey Arnold said. “Just about ev-erybody can shoot it.”In an 82-31 mauling of West Wilkes on Nov. 29, the War Eagles put on a 3-point clinic and registered the most points in a game in 10 years. Go-to threats were all over the floor as Ethan Driver (15 points), Elliott Erlandsson (13) and Adam Brown (11) paced 11 scor-ers. Jackson Sulecki had nine, Cameron Owens eight, Thomas Essic eight, Isaac Swisher six, Brady Vallance five, Logan Vandeweerd three, Connor Hood two and JV boys are scorching the nets David Patton two. Davie drilled 15 of 26 3-point attempts. That’s a magnificent percentage (.576). The barrage included seven different guys. Driver, Brown and Sulecki hit three triples each, while Owens and Essic hit two apiece. Erlandsson and Vallance hit one each. Sulecki was 3 for 3 from deep. Erlandsson hit 6 of 8 field goals, grabbed five rebounds and made four steals. Brown and Vallance handed out four assists each as Davie rolled up the most points since a 99-82 win over Reynolds in 2012-13. On that day, Chavin Peebles scored 30, Jordan McDaniel 22 and Kendell Cunningham 21. Davie 80, WR 37One day later against West Rowan, the War Eagles kept their engines humming. The three butt-kickings this season have been by 41, 51 and 43 points. “When other teams go to the bench, they don’t have as much firepower as we do,” Arnold said. This was basically a re-play of the W. Wilkes game. Ten guys scored as Davie hit 10 triples in 25 tries. Owens had 19 points, four steals and three assists. Driver had 16 points, five rebounds, four steals and three assists. Brown had 13 points, five assists and four steals. Erlandsson had nine points, eight rebounds and three steals. Essic had six points. Swisher had five points and two blocks. George Sakai and Vallance had four points each. Van-deweerd and Hood had two apiece. Davie’s 3s came from Owens (three), Brown (two), Driver (two), Es-sic (two) and Erlandsson. That’s 25 3s in two games ... on 51 attempts. By contrast, W. Wilkes and W. Rowan combined for three made 3s. “I can bring in 3-point shooters and there’s not much drop-off,” Arnold said. “When I go to the my subs, we’re not as big but we’re quick. We’ve got a good mix of defensive guys, offensive guys, shooters, a couple of slashers. I’ve kind of got a mix of everything.”As great as Davie has been, the level of compe- tition is about to rise with the start of conference play. Arnold is ready to see what Davie can do against Reyn-olds and East Forsyth. “It’ll be interesting to see how we do against the athletes in our conference,” he said. “We can handle the press and man-to-man, so I think we’re going to do alright this year.” Braddock took a page from his dad with a shake-and-bake move. He drove all the way to the rim and calmly laid it in. His first shot at-tempt of the game provided 46-38 breathing room and had the crowd oohing and aahing. “Braddock is hard to read, but at the same time, he’s not afraid of the mo-ment,” Pittman said. “He’s still learning. Sometimes the game is fast for him, sometimes it’s slow.”• Freshman guard Gavin Reese didn’t attempt a field goal all game, but he was fouled with Davie clinging to a four-point lead in the fourth quarter. He stepped to the free-throw line and made both. “They have to stay calm, stay mature and understand their minutes are going to go up and down,” Pittman said of his bench. “But when it’s time for them to play, they have to step up. If they can do that, I think we’ll be decent all year.”• Coleman and Reese weren’t the only War Eagles who had exquisite timing. Burke Rosenbaum was 0 for 2 when Lawhon drove and kicked the ball to the right corner. Rosenbaum drilled the 3 with :55 remaining to push the lead to 59-51. “Burke has practices where he’s lights out,” Pittman said. “He shoots it every morning and I told him it’s going to come. You just have to keep believing and have as much faith in yourself as we have in him.”When the War Eagles took care of the ball, they were extremely efficient. They made 9 of 14 3s for the game. In the second half, they shot 50 percent (7-14). But inexperienced teams don’t always close the deal smoothly. They take lumps. When Givens banked in a 3, West’s heart was still beating. Davie missed two free throws and Givens (32 points) nailed his eighth tri-ple at :12, cutting the Davie lead to 60-59. “(Givens) was the first one on the scouting report,” Pittman said. “He’s going to shoot anywhere on the court and he’s going to play scrappy.”Down one, West (0-3) fouled Lawhon at :07. He walked to the other end on a gimpy ankle. He made both foul shots to provide a 62-59 lead. Yeah, his sophomore year as a backup feels like a long time ago now. “Coleman ran the show as much as he could,” Pitt-man said. “He was hurting. We were just trying to get through it and not make excuses.” West missed a 3 at the buzzer and the Davie Cra-zies rushed the court to chest bump the jumping-up-and-down War Eagles. Pittman exhaled as the final shot missed. “I’d rather win ugly than lose pretty,” he said. “So I’ll take it.”Lawhon had nine points, seven assists and two steals. Landon Waller had four points and five rebounds. Ian Koontz and Rosenbaum had three points each. Reese and Coleman had two points each. Ethan Ratledge, who has a sore ankle of his own, grabbed eight rebounds and handed out two assists. freshman and had six points in the season opener. “I know we’ve got play-ers that can fill it up, and we play good team basketball,” Pittman said. “I told them I don’t get mad at y’all for shooting. Now I get mad if we shoot six straight jump-ers. Let’s go to the block a little bit and penetrate and kick, and then those jumpers look a lot easier and they’re in rhythm. I told Jackson in the first half: ‘You’re just jacking it up because you’re open.’ There’s a difference when you catch it and you’re ready to shoot. You get your feet together and then you shoot. ... When the rim opens for us, it opens fast.”Hayden Williams, who hit a stunning six 3s in the 61-15 wipeout of South Iredell in the opener, couldn’t get many looks and hit his only triple with 3:19 left in the third. It didn’t matter. The senior unselfish-ly deferred to his teammates. Lawhon showed his play-making chops in a 12-point second half to finish with 14 points, seven rebounds, six assists and two blocks. He’s playing with an edge after averaging 4.8 points as a varsity sophomore. “He’s been with me since June working on his game, at workouts, everything,” Pittman said. “The more and more he plays, and the more he gains confidence, he’s going to be a special kid for Davie.”Ian Koontz had six points and four rebounds. Williams had five points and three rebounds. Ratledge had five points, six assists and three rebounds in basically a half of action. Coleman had five points and three re-bounds. Landon Waller and Gavin Reese had two points apiece. Burke Rosenbaum contributed six rebounds and two assists as Davie cooked West 47-29 in the second half. “We were playing for each other,” Pittman said. “They were playing a trian-gle-and-two or box-and-one - they were mixing them up - and we had to keep working and figure it out. At halftime, we said we’re going to run Zone Two, give us a high pick and give us space. That opened up Jackson to knock down shots. It’s the best response I could ever ask for as a coach. That was a blessing.”West’s Andin Ashford (22 points, three 3s) and Harrison Holbrook (20 points, six 3s) gave Davie fits - at least until Powers started completely balling out. “It’s not going to be all flowers all the time,” Pit-tman said. “You’ve got to go through it and learn. The first game we played well, but I knew it was fool’s gold because we weren’t tested by (S. Iredell). But West Wilkes is a solid team. They play hard and have shooters at every position. That’s what we needed. Three months ago, we probably would have lost that game.” New Pool & Spa InstallationCleaning • ChemicalsOpening & ClosingVinyl Liner Replacement Tommy Harris/Owner – Over 30 Yrs. Exp.

B6 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Dec. 8, 2022 Continued From Page B1While Davie produced two champions, senior Lawson Hire (3-1 to finish second at 132), junior Reid Nail (5-1 to finish third at 126) and sophomore Ryder Strickland (4-2 at 285) ac-quitted themselves nicely. Hire had two pins and improved his season record to 9-2. Nail turned in three pins and bumped his record to 9-4. Strickland pounded out three pins and ran his record to 8-2. “We had high hopes that (Hire) was going to produce,” McKnight said of the team’s lone senior. “He wasn’t far from making the state (tournament) last year in the toughest region there was.”“Lawson always hustles and goes hard,” Long said. It was also a productive weekend for junior Jerred Alexander. He went 2-2 at 170 - both wins were pins - to leave with a 9-3 season record. “He still makes mis-takes, but he’s one of those Duo .. that’s not going to quit,” Long said. Before Davie headed to Orange, Long said sopho-more Luke Miller (4-3 at 138) was among the big-gest surprises of the young season. “He didn’t wrestle a lot last year, but he got a starting spot, he goes hard and he’s not going to quit,” Long said. “Everybody he pinned (in a tournament at Alleghany), he hit them with a cradle. He’s going to stay with what works for him. You can be beating him to death, but if he gets one shot at you, he’s going to finish it.”“You better not let him hit a cradle,” McKnight added.

We’re just four games into the season and the unbeaten Jaguars already have more wins than they did in the 2012-13, 2015-16, 2017-18 and 2020-21 seasons. Olivia Smith took over as the Jags ripped through visiting Millennium Char-ter 36-18 on Nov. 29. After scoring 10 in each of the first two games, Smith went off for 17. “Special mention to Ol-ivia for having her all-time high and this season’s in-dividual high,” coach Su-san Jones said. “We have been waiting for her to have a game where she really breaks out. Funny thing is there is still so much more potential in her to score.”Emmie Burris had nine, Madison Daugherty four, Kayden Richardson four and Cayleigh Love two. Richardson added seven rebounds. Ellis 46, Canterbury 14Two days later at home, Burris and Smith delivered haymakers in the second quarter. Five different Jag-uars scored in the third. Those two things epito-mized Ellis’ cakewalk over the Cougars. About that feel-good story: Ellis is 4-0 for the first time since 2016-17, and it The Ellis boys basketball team made two opponents look feeble last week, win-ning by 49 and 33 points to lift its record to 4-0. In a 64-15 home win over Millennium Charter on Nov. 29, Ben Reid and Braxton Bowling scored more in the first quarter (21) than Millennium did in the game. Reid and Bowling fin-ished with 13 and 10, re-spectively. Ten Jaguars put in points, including Weston Barefoot (eight), Brandon Forrest (seven), Aidan Hor-ton (six), Cannon Smith (six), Zaheim Reese (six), Brady Hall (three), Max Cornatzer (three) and J’si-erre Arnold (two). Two days later, the Jag-uars punished visiting Can-terbury 52-19 behind Bowl-ing’s 21 points. The other Ellis girls a feel-good story at 4-0 holds a four-game winning streak for the first time since 2018-19. Canterbury did a respect-able job in the first quarter, trailing 12-6, but Burris and Smith powered a 17-2 blitz in the second with 15 points between the two. Then five different girls contributed to an 11-0 run in the third, when the spread reached 40-8. Burris gets better every game, going from three points in the opener to four to nine and to 14 in this one, which included three 3-pointers. “Emmie had a really well-rounded game, playing a bit of everything: low post, high post, wing and point,” Jones said. “Mostly we use her as a small forward where she was able to score inside and out and also helped our ball movement by finding the gaps either to receive a pass or give one.”Smith (11) recorded her fourth double-figure game. “Olivia continued to be consistent, playing a solid game on both ends of the court,” Jones said. Daugherty had seven points, Richardson four, Sydney Ward four, Oliv-ia Rareshide two, Emily Hernandez two and Gracyn Coleman two. Richardson disarmed Canterbury’s big girl and Quinn Cornatzer brought her usual in-your-face de-fense. “Kayden played an ex- tremely physical game, fronting their 6-foot center the entire game, success-fully battling her for posi-tion and keeping her from scoring and rebounding,” she said. “Quinn brought her usual contagious defen-sive energy. She tied up the ball, stole it, rebounded and smothered anyone in her space.” Notes: South Davie lost 38-24 at Wesleyan Christian Academy on Nov. 29. ... North Davie pulled out a 38-36 barnburner against visiting South on Dec. 1. Londyn McDowell scored 13, but it wasn’t quite enough as South fell to 0-4. Aryanna Warren had eight, Harmoni Alston six, Alleson Cothren four, Vivian Vaugh-ters two, Layla Perez two and Maliyah Allen one. ... North improved to 2-1. Its scorers were Avarie Mar-tin (13), Maddie Ratledge (13), Hayden Gavura (four), Landry Parsons (four) and Britt Carrier (four). Jag boys cruising with two more big wins points came from Horton (seven), Barefoot (seven), Forrest (seven), Reid (five), Reese (three), Smith (three), Mason Driver (two) and Cornatzer (two). •••South Davie was un-lucky in the early going. It lost 68-65 at home to High Point Christian Academy on Nov. 21, meaning the Tigers dropped the first two games by a combined nine points. HPC hit the game-win-ning bucket with 10 seconds left to spoil big games by Draeton Nance (21 points) and Noah Dulin (20). Jayden Warren had 14, Cameron Knox seven, Luke Foster two and Ean Click one. The Tigers, who had seven days to stew on the loss, vented at Wesleyan Christian Academy on Nov. 29. They sprinted to a 51-13 halftime lead and coasted home, 66-23. Four players did all the South scoring: Dulin 22, Nance 21, Warren 14 and Foster nine. Two days later in Farm-ington, the Tigers clobbered North Davie 56-25 to square their record at 2-2. With the second lopsided loss in a row, the Wildcats fell to 1-2. “I thought our kids played hard defensively, but we are having a hard time putting the ball in the basket,” North coach Trevor Gooch said. “We must keep working hard in practice and hopefully get better.”North’s scorers were Blake French (seven), Edarius Oliver (six), Wyatt Harwood (four), Ty Greene (two), Carter Cornett (two), Landon Hayes (two) and Reynolds Tomlinson (two). Martin scores 20, 20, 24Caleb Martin had a big week for the Miami Heat. In a span of three games, he put up 20 points, nine rebounds, four assists and two steals; then 20 points and four rebounds; and then 24 points, nine rebounds, four assists and two steals. He shot at least 54 percent from the field in each game.
