Tell us what you think The Literary Corner: Renegade Writer’s Guild Harold Frank the definition of freedom Please See Renegade ‑ Page 9 Freedom.Webster’s Dictionary describes the meaning of the word as “... liberation from slavery or restraint or from the power of another - independence ... the quality of being exempt or released, usually from something onerous ... the quality of being frank, open or outspoken.”While reflecting on my friend Harold Frank’s recent passing, that word kept coming into my mind.Freedom.He fits every definition.And because of Harold Frank and people like him, all of us can experience freedoms that few others worldwide get the chance to experience.I first met Harold Frank in the late ‘80s or early ‘90s while taking photographs at Davie High School basketball games. He was a reserve sheriff’s deputy assigned with keeping order in the gym, and conversations ensued. A long-time resident of Davie County, he, of course, knew the Barnhardts, including my dad. And he had married the sister of my cousin’s husband, so we had something to talk about between the action on the court.The talk quickly turned to his favorite hobby, raising and competing with game fowl - in other words - fighting chickens. It was a hobby that he and wife Reba enjoyed together for years. He even testified before Congress to try to keep his favorite sport legal. I also started to learn some of his personal history. He had a necklace with a bullet - a bullet taken from his shoulder after he was wounded in World War II, and taken prisoner by Germany.I had already written an article on his gamefowl hobby; it even earned a national award. So I asked if he could tell me his story from the war, knowing it would be just as, if not more, interesting.Absolutely not, he said. He meant it.He wasn’t being hard to get along with. There was a good reason that Harold Frank wasn’t going to tell what he went through in World War II.Reba.He didn’t want his wife to be upset, learning of the hor-rors he experienced as a prisoner in a Germany. I understood.That interview about his war time came later, just be-fore his wife’s passing in 2016. The interview took hours.If you knew Harold Frank, you knew he was tough man with an even tougher persona. He wasn’t scared of any-thing.But when he talked about being a prisoner of war, his voice cracked. An occasional tear would stream down his face. I won’t recap those horrors here.Harold Frank survived.He went into the war as a skinny 19-year-old boy whose idea of freedom was the ability to shoot blue jays from a neighbor’s pecan trees, and came out as a 21-year-old man who had an entirely new knowledge of the meaning of the word freedom.Even when he returned home, life wasn’t easy. He took a bus for a job in a furniture factory in Lexington. It may not have been easy, but that’s where he met Reba. Her red hair and sparky personality immediately caught his atten-tion, and before long, they had married and moved to her home county, Davie.Harold Frank later retold his war story over and over, and Mark Hager put it into movie and book forms for peo-ple worldwide to see and read forever. We’re all grateful for that.I’ll never forget the last comment Harold Frank had during that first interview about the war.“I ain’t no damn hero.”In a way, he was right. He was only doing what thou-sand of other American boys did and would have done.But in reality, he was wrong.Just being a prisoner of war didn’t make him a hero. Experiencing that and then going on to live a long life without burdening others with his story made him a hero. Freedom.Thank you, Harold Frank.- Mike Barnhardt ChristmastideBy Stephanie Williams DeanIf you’re stressing because your Christmas decorations are still up – don’t fret. The Christmas season isn’t over yet.According to ancient customs, the Christmas season continued from the feast of Christmas on Christmas Eve until the epiphany on Jan. 6. This period of 12 days in be-tween is called “Twelvetide” and is also known as “Christ-mastide.”Twelvetide is translated as “holy days” or “holy nights.” These twelve days are part of the Christian season that cel-ebrates the nativity. The birth of Jesus on Christmas Day is the first day, and the arrival of the three wise men is the last day on Jan. 5. While traveling, I attended the early morning service on New Year’s Eve at the historic Grace Episcopal Church in Yorktown. I learned something else. The Christmas season was actually 40 days long. Who knew? The season contin-ued right up to a Christian festival called Candlemas. Can-dlemas Day, also known as the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, was on Feb. 2. Candlemas commemorated the occasion when the Virgin Mary went to the Temple in Je-rusalem to be purified and to present Jesus to God as her firstborn – exactly 40 days after His birth.I also attended a New Year’s Eve “watchnight” service with the Black American congregation at Saint John’s Baptist Church in Williamsburg. A traditional watchnight service as we know it today takes place on New Year’s Eve and is a late-night Christian service held on the 7th day of Christmastide. The prayerful “watchnight” is grounded in Biblical scripture. But for Black Americans, the night holds yet addition-al significance and reason for celebration. In September 1862, President Lincoln issued the preliminary Emanci-pation Proclamation. All enslaved people living in states of rebellion against the Union would be freed on Jan. 1 of 1863. Blacks gathered as their clocks struck midnight – after which people were considered free in all the slave states. The tradition, called Freedom’s Eve, has continued for 160 years. As the minister put it – “The night initially was a standard service – but we took on an afro-centric flavor.” If we look to the past, Moravian church congregations observed watchnight services on New Year’s Eve, which was preceded by the celebration of the lovefest. The three-hour watch night service of Moravian Christians traces back to at least 1733. Following the lead of the Moravi-ans, John Wesley, founder of the Methodist Church, ad-opted watchnight services in 1740 – also called Covenant Renewal Services. The services provided Christians with Godly alternatives.Different cultures have unique ways of celebrating the holiday – what a good time to explore the traditions of others. Christmas doesn’t end on Dec. 25. And the Spirit of Christmas should never end. Giving gifts, showing acts of kindness, service to others, and generosity should be year-round. And about those decorations. Don’t worry, just contin-ue making a joyful noise unto the Lord. New Year TraditionsBy Linda H. BarnetteThe earliest recorded festivities of the arrival of a new year go back to ancient Babylon. For them the new year began at the vernal equinox and was celebrated by a reli-gious festival called Akitu. That was the time each year when farmers cut their barley. Akitu was also the time when a new king was crowned or the present one mandat-ed to continue.Through antiquity, many civilizations developed calen-dars tying the first day of their years with either an agricul-tural or astronomical event. In Egypt the year began with the annual flooding of the Nile River, which happened at the same time as the rising of the star Sirius.The earliest Roman calendar was made up of 10 months and 304 days with each new year beginning at the vernal equinox. Eventually, Julius Caesar introduced the Grego-rian calendar, which was similar to the Gregorian calendar that we still use. Caesar also started the tradition of starting the new year off with partying!In many countries there are also traditional New Year’s Eve dishes. Pork often appears on the menus in countries such as Cuba, Austria, and Portugal because pigs represent prosperity in those cultures. In the southern United States people typically eat pork, black-eyed peas, and collard greens hoping to start the new year off right with lucky foods. Black-eyed peas were supposedly about the only thing the Union soldiers would not eat during the Civil War, thus good luck by eating them.Other common customs include fireworks, singing “Auld Lang Syne” and making resolutions for the year ahead. In this country the most popular tradition is the dropping of a giant ball in Times Square on the stroke of midnight each year.So to all of you, happy 2024. I hope it’s a great year for us all! Gingerbread HousesBy: E. BishopTraveling I-40 is always a little scary, but the comple-tion of the new interchange in Statesville definitely made our trip toward the mountains more pleasant. Asheville was our destination for a short midweek getaway to see a famous comedian. Can’t say that it was fantastic after worrying about parking, having to fight the crowds, wait-ing for the show to start, etc. but what were we thinking? It was the week of Christmas. Must be getting too old for such events. However, the next day was a good adventure for me, if not for my husband. The Omni Grove Park Inn in Asheville is a one-of-a-kind type of place. Completed in just under a year, it opened on July 12, 1913 with views of the Blue Ridge Mountains; built of rough granite stones from the proper-ty and was advertised as having “walls five feet thick of granite boulders.” “Built for the ages.” I believe it. The Great Hall has 24-foot ceilings and two gigantic 36-foot By Brad RhodesSyndicated Columnist Have you ever wondered how your health affects your financial planning? Your overall well-being plays a crucial role in your fi-nancial planning journey. When building your financial plan, there’s bound to be a focus on savings, retirement income and investments, but one crucial aspect that should always be considered is your health. This article will explore health factors that should be integrated into your financial plan to ensure a comprehen-sive and well-rounded approach. Your financial plan should account for healthcare ex-penses, whether expected or unexpected. Budgeting for health insurance premiums, medications and medical treatments is essential to reduce the financial burden of unforeseen health issues. As your health needs change over time, so should your budget. Adapting to fluctuating health expenses by adjust-ing your financial plan will help safeguard savings and as-sets from being depleted in the face of acute health crises.Maintaining good health plays a significant role in the insurance options available to you. Chronic illnesses or pre-existing conditions can impact your ability to secure affordable life and disability insurance coverage or even exclude you from specific policies. Obtaining life and dis-ability insurance early in your financial planning process is thus highly recommended. Additionally, it is advisable to evaluate long-term care insurance options to protect your retirement savings in case of prolonged illnesses or incapacitation. One significant aspect of personal financial planning is preparing for end-of-life care and ensuring that your assets and wealth are allocated according to your wishes. Des-ignating powers of attorney for healthcare and finances is critical in this context. Doing so ensures that someone trustworthy manages your medical decisions and financial responsibilities if you become incapacitated. Most impor-tantly, communicate your healthcare preferences and end-of-life wishes with your loved ones to avoid confusion and family disagreements. Tracking your historical healthcare usage can help you better predict future costs, enabling you to adapt your fi-nancial plan accordingly. Analyzing patterns related to healthcare expenses, such as frequency and cost of medi-cal treatments, can provide valuable insight into potential future costs. Incorporating projections of rising healthcare costs into financial plans ensures accurate cash flow esti-mates and safeguards your savings. Invest in your health and wellness to minimize future medical expenses. A focus on physical fitness has been proven to correlate with reduced healthcare costs, while poor health can lead to an increased financial burden. Moreover, the connection between mental health and fi-nancial stress cannot be ignored. Managing financial stress through comprehensive planning will significantly impact overall well-being in the long run. Understanding tax benefits associated with healthcare spending is essential to personal financial planning. Uti-lize Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) to save for future health-related costs and maximize long-term savings. These accounts offer a tax-free means of saving for health-care expenses while allowing for investment growth. Bal-ancing HSA contributions with other financial goals is cru-cial to optimizing your financial plan. Conclusion: Incorporating health factors into your fi-nancial planning ensures a more comprehensive and real-istic approach to managing your wealth.

It is a popular tourist attraction with shops, art galleries, spa, antique auto exhibit and the National Gingerbread House competition that was held for the 31st time this year. The Inn was decked out for the Christmas season with more than 80 illuminated trees around the property and standing in the Great Hall was a life-sized gingerbread house modeled after the historic hotel. But I was there to see the nearly 200 entries of gingerbread houses compet-ing for the $7,500 cash prize. The winner also gets a prize package of goodies that includes a stay at the hotel. Entries came from 22 states and even one from Guatemala. Peo-ple return year after year, evidently improving upon their last year’s artistic endeavor, in hopes of winning. Of course, the criteria are strict for such a competitive adventure. The house has to be made of 100% edible can-dy, embellishments or other material except for any lights. No styrofoam, wood or other artificial fillers, except for the baseboard which cannot exceed 24” by 24”. Seven-ty-five percent of it has to be built from scratch. No type of nut is allowed. When submitted, all materials used in the creation must be listed with a brief description of the house.The winners this year were an aunt and niece baking duo, Faith An and Deborah Kinton, from Fuquay-Varina, calling themselves “Difficult Dessert Devotees.” “Christ-mas at the Tongkonan” was their beautiful, most diffi-cult looking, creation. The structure was inspired by the traditional ancestral house, Tongkonan from Indonesia. Faith An worked on the gingerbread house every day for two months. To make the tassels on figurines, they used a “most unique ingredient” of catgut dental sutures along with stevia leaves; these items helped them win the grand prize. They hope to use their house in some way to benefit Indonesian tourism with plans of visiting there someday. Renegade ...

A friend shared her new theme for the upcoming year – “More in 24.” At first, I thought, Now, that’s a perfect one. We all want more of what life offers – the good stuff. New Year’s Eve rolled around, and I rang in 2024 in celebratory fashion. But there weren’t any hand-held spar-klers or colorful fireworks. There were no toasts or rings of crystal champagne glasses to welcome the year in drunken revelry. Instead, there was gospel-flavored music infused with energy – with bits of spirited preaching thrown in. With grateful reflections and hopeful attitudes, the congrega-tion simmered in a soul-rockin’ service. On the eve, my niece, Quin-ton, and I sat amongst God’s peo-ple. We nestled ourselves among the Black American congrega-tion at St. John Baptist Church in Williamsburg for a southern, sit-down supper in the fellowship hall. Amongst our brothers and sisters – we feasted on a buffet of tasty chicken options and savory sides. Offerings, including both country fried and hot chicken, were perfectly paired with tangy green beans, homestyle pota-to salad, and piping-hot, fluffy, homemade yeast rolls. Hope-ful for good tidings, the cooks made sure there were plenty of well-seasoned, black-eyed peas to go around. The supper was a taste of life’s good stuff – southern soul cooking. After supper, the congregation ushered in the New Year amongst the Spirit of God – a significant watchnight ser-vice that included church bells, jazzy piano renditions, and gospel songs. A watchnight service is a late-night, Chris-tian service held on the 7th day of Christmastide. Not only grounded in Biblical scripture, the night had special mean-ing for Black Americans. Earlier that day, we’d attended an early morning, formal service at historic Grace Episcopal Church in Yorktown – a festival of “Walking in Love and Welcoming All.” The service bulletin read “Merry Christmas” – giving nod to Christmastide. Also known as Twelvetide – the 12-day period runs from Christmas Day through Jan. 5 when the wise men came. It is our calling to keep the Christmas Spirit and story alive throughout the days of the Christmas season – and beyond.During the service, profound words written by evan-gelist, Reverend Billy Graham’s prayer were read aloud. “And in the midst of our daily preoccupations and pur-suits, open our eyes to the sorrows and injustices of our hurting world, and help us to respond with compassion and sacrifice to those who are friendless and in need.” A verse from the carol, “Canticle of the Turning” – stirred every heart. “The hungry and poor shall weep no more, for the food they can never earn; There are tables spread, every mouth be fed, for the world is about to turn.” As I reflected on the theme, “More in 24,” I questioned – more of what? More Faith. Love. Kindness. Dedication. Devotion. Compassion. More food for the hungry – more hope for the downtrodden – and more quality time spent with the lonely?An appropriate theme might be, “Less is More in 24” – less prejudice, hatred, condemnation, and judgment – a time when everyone is celebrated for their uniqueness. If you’re reading this today, no matter how difficult your life may be, rest assured you’re safe in the loving arms of an everlasting God. He hears your prayers.I returned home and settled upon my theme for 2024 – one of “Together in Spirit.” We all need to come together – to love and care for one another.Brothers and Sisters - it’s in that Spirit – I wish you a blessed New Year.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Jan. 11, 2024 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record At the end of the third quarter, Reagan’s varsity girls basketball team had a 19-point lead and Davie coach Lindsey Adams had a glare that would scare away wolves. Amazingly, the War Eagles were within three with a minute on the clock. The secret: Peyton Spaugh’s remarkable defensive abilities. Her grit, toughness and drive led a huge rally. Davie, unfortunately, ran out of juice in the final minute. It would have been a legendary comeback. Reagan held on 58-52 in Pfafftown on Jan. 3. “It took me chewing them out at the end of the third quarter for them to finally play with assertiveness,” Adams said. “(The fourth-quarter rally) made me more mad because basketball is not a game where you can just turn it on and off. You have to be locked in from start to finish every single possession, because this conference matters.”In the first quarter, Bailey Aderhold and Madison Daugherty combined to hit three 3s as Davie burst to a 15-7 lead. The middle two quarters, though, were miserable for the visitors. Reagan went on a 26-5 run. Emmie Burris’ tough bank shot stopped a drought that saw Davie miss nine straight shots. By contrast, Reagan banged four straight 3s to build a 33-20 halftime lead. In the third, Burris scored four straight as Davie pulled within 33-27, but Reagan scored 17 of the next 19 points to make it 50-29 in the opening seconds of the fourth. The collapse came on the heels of a 3-0 run in the Christmas tournament at Ledford. “I think last week’s easy games vs. Davidson (Coun-ty) ... we thought when we jumped on them early that it was going to be easy,” Adams said. “They don’t realize how competitive 4-A CPC is. You have to be disciplined every single possession no matter if you’re up or down.”The No. 1 reason for Davie’s big deficit was Reagan senior Emily Smith, who scored 17 of her 20 points in the second quarter, when she nailed four of her five triples. “She was on my scout as the best shooter on their team, and she was still able to hit (four 3s in the sec-ond),” Adams said. “I think it was a lack of focus.”Spaugh was unfazed by the 50-29 deficit. The senior always plays absurdly hard, but she was on another level in the fourth. Burris ran a fast break and hit Spaugh for a layup. Spaugh got a steal and scored at the other end. Vivian Vaughters scored off an offensive rebound after a Spaugh steal. After Malayka Rankin came up with a steal, a successful fast break saw the ball move from Spaugh to Vaughters to Avarie Martin. Spaugh led a fast break and assisted a Londyn McDowell bucket. Vaughters turned a steal into a layup. Girls fall short in Spaugh-led rally Please See Girls - Page B2 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Davie’s wrestling team might have only produced one champion in the Gate City Grapple tournament in Greensboro - this rugged event wasn’t for the faint of heart - but the War Eagles still celebrated a day of absolute victory. Their first-place showing in a field of 57 teams was a testament to their fabulous depth. Coach Josh Stanley carried 16 varsity boys to the Greensboro Coliseum Com-plex’s Special Events Center and 15 of them contributed at least one win. The 16 guys combined for a 38-28 record as Davie scored 170 points to outdistance the 163.5 by Nolensville (Tn.) and the 134 by Laney. The tourna-ment was held Dec. 29-30. On hand were six schools Davie wrestlers win 57-team tournament See Tourney - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record What a week it was for the Davie boys basketball team. Winning at Reagan and at Mt. Tabor in a span of three days was a big ask, but the War Eagles pulled out both hotly contested games and looked the part of a real threat in the Central Piedmont Conference race. There were so many rea-sons the 59-53 victory over Tabor on Jan. 5 was special. • The Spartans had an 18-game winning streak in By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The Davie boys basket-ball team’s leading scorer, Jackson Powers, had a quiet game at Reagan on Jan. 3. He managed only - only! - nine points, six rebounds, two blocks and two charges on the defensive end. It ultimately didn’t mat-ter. When you’ve got several weapons, when you’ve got a bench as deep as Davie’s, it’s easy to see how the War Eagles can mess teams up. While Powers was held to three field goals, Bryson Mickey, Ethan Ratledge and Coleman Lawhon combined for 45 points. And then there was a junior reserve named Adam Brown who raised eyebrows with eight points, all of which were massively important in a 67-61 nail-biting victory in Pfafftown. While the Raiders slipped to 9-3 overall and 1-1 in the Central Piedmont Conference, the War Eagles Brown leads boys to nailbiter win stayed perfect at 12-0, 2-0. “This year we are a lot more balanced,” coach Josh Pittman said. “We always seem to have 3-4 guys in double figures, and then we have one or two with eight or nine points. To me, those are the toughest teams to beat because it shows bal-ance and sharing the ball is huge. If somebody does have an off night, we’ve still got some pieces who can come in and do well.”In the first half, Mickey buried a step-back 3, then hit another 3 with a man in his face. Landon King ran down a pass that got away. He dribbled along the base-line and alertly found Brown open in the right corner. Brown’s triple provided the largest lead of the night at 38-29. (You would hear from Brown again.)The Raiders burned the nets in the first half, hitting 15 of 30 shots and 3 of 5 3-point tries, yet they trailed 42-35 at the break because the War Eagles were even hotter -15 of 25 overall, in-cluding 6 of 13 from 3, for 60 percent. Mickey was the catalyst in the first half. He used his shot-making (4 for 4 overall, 3 for 3 from deep) and ball handling to score 15 points. He finished with a game-high 19 points, the third time he’s hit that mark. He was shooting 89 percent from the foul line before going 6 for 6 from the stripe in this one. He also had four rebounds and two steals. Lawhon was a key part of setting the tone, scoring eight of his 13 in the first half. “He’s a gamer, man,” Pittman said of Mickey. “He plays big in big games and he enjoys the moment, and I think that takes some of the pressure off other guys and it helps them relax more and play better as well. “Last year they were pressing up on (Lawhon), they were physical, they were ripping him, and he had a tough go at it. This year we’re starting to see him make adjustments and go at people who are trying to pick him up full court and play physical.”Reagan battled back in the third, an 11-2 run giving the host a 46-44 lead. Davie had reason to be concerned because it appeared to be losing juice and Powers, who came in averaging 15.4 points, was having a rare off night scoring-wise. Give credit to Reagan senior Cooper Jackson, a formida-ble inside presence. “(Cooper Jackson) is a big dude,” Pittman said. “He’s 6-6 or 6-7 and his wingspan is huge. He was walling up.”But Davie’s response to the 46-44 deficit was abso-lutely fantastic. Mickey’s drive and lefthanded finish stopped Davie’s 0-for-5 drought from the field and Up, up and away Boys outlast Tabor; extend win streak to 13 the regular season. • Davie had dropped three straight and 14 of 15 to Tabor, including 40- and 27-point losses last season. • The War Eagles (13-0) now have their longest winning streak since the 2018-19 team rattled off 13 in a row. • Davie entered the week in sole possession of first place at 3-0. West Forsyth is 2-0, while Tabor and Reyn-olds are 2-1. The unbeaten War Eagles were giddy when they left Tabor, but coach Josh Pit- tman cautioned that things can change in a hurry in the CPC. “I just knew we could beat them, and now it’s about staying humble and working,” he said. “I told the kids in the locker room: ‘Don’t drink the Kool-Aid, don’t walk around with your head inflated because we haven’t done anything.’ Yeah, that’s a big win, but you’ve got West Forsyth coming to town on (Jan. 9) and they are playing really good basketball. We’ve just gotta keep working.” The first half was as tight as it gets. Davie emerged with a 24-22 halftime lead as neither team led by more than three. “We started off the game in the game, and that’s all I wanted,” Pittman said. “I did not want us to get hit in the mouth and put our head down.”Davie seized command in the third quarter with tor-rid outside shooting.

She got a steal and hit Vaughters on the break for two. She stole the ensuing inbounds pass and scored. Then she knocked the ball away around midcourt, a teammate passed it to Spaugh and she was fouled with a minute remaining. Spaugh hit both free throws to cut Reagan’s lead to 55-52. It was a 23-5 Davie run. The War Eagles converted 9 of 12 field goals during that stretch and chopped 18 points off the deficit despite having Aderhold foul out at the six-minute mark and watching Rankin get whis-tled for her fifth personal with 4:53 to go. Adams said the tough-ness of Spaugh/Rankin is something she’d love to bottle. “Peyton and Malay-ka are relentless,” she said. “They’ve always been my defensive competitors. They are so annoying (on defense) and they’re not scared. You can cross them up, you can knock them to the floor, but they’re going to come back and keep fighting. Peyton has shown so much more passion and energy this year. I think a lot of that comes from her confidence. She put in a lot of work in the offseason, and being able to see the results of that, that brings more passion to the table for her.”Davie was one more stop from potentially forcing overtime, but Reagan hit 3 of 4 foul shots in the waning moments and improved to 2-0 in the CPC. Davie (1-1 CPC) lost to the Raiders for the 9th time in 10 meetings. The consolation was Spaugh’s stat line. Here’s all she did: 12 points, 11 steals, 4 assists, 4 rebounds, 6-of-8 foul shooting.The fiery finish was aided by Burris (8 points, 8 rebounds, 5 steals), Aderhold (7 points, 6 rebounds), Martin (6 points, 5 rebounds), Vaugh-ters (6 points, 3 rebounds, 2 steals), Madison Daugh-erty (5 points), McDowell (5 points) and Rankin (3 points, 6 rebounds, 3 steals). Although Vaughters is a freshman with little basket-ball experience, she’s been a quick study and her upside is exciting. “She’s catching on fairly quickly,” Adams said. “At the beginning of the season, I didn’t even think to have Vivian on my varsity. I only pulled her up because the Gentry sisters got injured.”Tabor 64, Davie 41Two days later, the fu-rious comeback at Reagan did not carry over. Davie was trounced at Mt. Tabor. The Spartans led by 11 at the end of the first, by 19 at halftime and by 23 after the third. It was Davie’s worst loss of the year. The Davie scorers were Aderhold (10), Martin (10), Rankin (8), Spaugh (6), Vaughters (4) and Burris (3). While Tabor improved to 8-4 overall and 2-1 in the league, Davie fell to 7-6, 1-2.

The Davie boys knocked off West Forsyth, 120-118, by capturing eight of 11 events. Reynolds was third at 66. “It has been a long, long time since a boys or girls team has beaten West,” coach Lance White said. “This meet was a state-ment.”Earnhardt Harris and Zach Hirata were the cen-terpieces with two indi-vidual wins and two relay victories each. Harris won the 50 free (22.88) and the 100 butterfly (53.37), while Hirata won the 200 free (1:52.53) and the 100 back-stroke (1:00.17). Aiden Davis (200 IM at 2:12.65) and Colin O’Don-nell (100 breaststroke at 1:15.26) helped the cause with first-place times. The winning relays: Davis, Lo-gan Zuleger, Hirata and Harris in the 200 medley relay at 1:47, and Harris, Davis, Bryce Harnsberger and Hirata in the 400 free relay at 3:30.54. “No, we didn’t win the war, but we won some bat-tles and Davie swimming continues to improve,” White said. “This team has lots of talent, and when you combine that with the swim whisperers of coach Chad (Zuleger) and coach (Tak) Hirata, you have a winning formula.”•••On the girls’ side, West Forsyth triumphed with 131 points, followed by Reyn-olds with 110 and Davie with 66. Davie’s top performance was second place in the 200 free relay. That foursome was Sarah Rajacich, Sophia Brady, Brady Sheek and Logan White. Davie notched a pair of third places: Lilli Seats in the 200 IM and Sheek, White, Rajacich and Brady in the 200 medley relay. • Sports Briefs • DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Jan. 11, 2024 ‑ B3 I admit that, in things hunting and fishing, I’m a little old-fashioned.It took me a little while to get used to hunting out of a deer stand that was hang-ing on a tree – not nailed to it. Climbing stands still seem a little foreign.I quickly realized how much trail cameras did for deer hunters. My son and I have a half-dozen of them tied to tree trunks on the 50-acre lease we hunt. They give us a great idea of what kinds of bucks (and gobblers) we have roam-ing our woods, where and when they’re going to show up, and what we might need to look out for, in terms of coyotes. I was showing off to a friend a few trail-cam pho-tos of a big buck a couple of years ago, standing in the lobby at church, when a third buddy looked over my shoulder and described what we were looking at as “deer porn.” I discovered a good de-cade ago that a lot of off-shore fishermen had turned to services that mapped temperature changes in the ocean to find abrupt tem- perature changes and cur-rent breaks that often hold gamefish. The night before a trip, you buy the next day’s map and it gives you places to start — a big sav-ings in gas and time when you’re hunting dolphin, tuna and wahoo.On a smaller scale, it has taken me a year to get used to the fancy electron-ics on my bass boat, and I don’t even have top-of-the-line stuff that makes fishing akin to a video game. I’m more comfortable with a flasher unit. And this troll-ing motor; I can hit a but-ton and it holds my boat in place, no matter how the wind decides to blow?The latest gadget that has made its way into the outdoors world is appar-ently the same one that’s carrying warheads into the battlefields of eastern Eu-rope: the drone.Last spring, a turkey hunting buddy in South Carolina told me that drones had invaded the tur-key hunting world. It seems that some sharp hunting guides on expansive plan-tations in South Carolina’s Lowcountry had been us-ing drones outfitted with cameras to check out which large, open fields might hold turkeys, particularly gobblers. With thousands of acres to cover, being able to scout places hun-dreds of yards away in just a few minutes makes things easier. Put a drone up and check the southwest field, then the riverbottom field, then the upland field, and you can narrow where you need to go to call that bird. Not much good for wooded areas, but when the situation fits, I can see the application. I am even imagining how it could have helped on 250 acres I had access to in Stokes County for about 10 years. Awfully easy to keep an eye on the three big fields that comprised probably 30 acres, surrounded by all that timber.The latest drone trick I heard about, just a couple of weeks ago, takes things a little deeper into the world of technology. Apparently, you can outfit drones with any number of options well beyond a simple camera. The story I heard involved an outfitting business that had a drone rigged with a device that was heat-seek-ing. If a hunter arrowed or shot a buck right before dusk, and the buck had run off, the outfitter could send his drone overhead, in the general direction the buck had fled, and the drone could report back the location of any “hot spot” where the animal might have fallen.The drone allegedly cost in the neighborhood of five figures, but when you’re offering hunts at several thousand dollars a week, making the customer hap-py by finding that trophy 8-pointer can pay off.And I thought having blood-trailing dogs was a big deal.Show in RaleighThe first and biggest of North Carolina’s fishing/boating shows cranks up in a week when the Bass and Saltwater Fishing Expo returns to the state fair-grounds in Raleigh Jan. 12-14, Friday and Saturday, 9 a.m.-7 p.m., and Sunday 10 a.m.-5 p.m.This show offers sports-men a look at the newest in boating and fishing equip- ment, and a chance for an-glers to listen to some of the nation’s best experts when it comes to freshwa-ter and saltwater angling.Three big-name bass pros will be giving sem-inars: Kevin Van Dam of Michigan on Friday, and Bryan Thrift of Shelby, and Alabama’s Timmy Horton all three days. Freshwa-ter and saltwater seminars starring local and regional guides and experts will run for about the entire show. Hunters are using drones more and more. - Photo courtesy Immortal Produccions Hunters taking advantage of available technology Continued From Page B1ignited a 12-4 run. Mickey drove again but this time kicked it out to Lawhon, who drained a 3. Brown received a pass in the lane, spun and converted a tough layup. Mickey fired an in-bounds pass to Powers, who popped a 3 with a defender running at him. Ratledge took his man to the hoop and scored to give Davie a 56-50 lead. Lawhon, though, picked up his fourth foul with 7:09 remaining, and Reagan again made it a fight as it rallied to tie things at 56 with 4:31 remaining. After Davie had missed six straight shots, Brown and Co. dug in. Brown sprinted from the baseline to the top of the key, got a screen and received a pass from Law-hon. Brown’s 3 provided a 59-56 lead. On the ensuing defensive possession, Pow-ers drew a charge. It was the second time that Powers took a charge that negated a Reagan basket. Brown came in averag-ing 2.5 points, with four scoreless outings mixed in. His coming-out party came at a great time as he scored eight on 3-of-4 shooting. “Adam also played well against West Davidson and East Davidson,” Pittman said. “Added on to that, he stacked some good practices and I think he’s in a nice little rhythm right now and he’s found some confidence. Seeing the ball go through the net a couple of times will do that for you. He also played well on the defensive end. Adam is always Adam - he just took it in stride and enjoyed the moment, and I’m sure he’ll be ready for Brown ... Continued From Page B1and Coleman Lawhon bur-ied back-to-back 3s. After Powers converted inside, Bryson Mickey nailed a triple, making Davie 6 for its last 8 from long range. When Powers split a pair at the line, Davie had its largest lead at the end of the third, 42-32. “I told them it will pop sooner or later, and when it pops, we’re going to get up 8-10 points, and then we’ve got to maintain,” Pittman said. “It popped, and then they came back, and then we started to play Davie basketball and make that extra pass - and that is hard to guard.”You knew the Spartans (8-4 overall) weren’t going to roll over. They stormed back by making three straight 3s. Just like that, Davie’s lead was down to 42-41 with 6:24 remaining. “I know they made a run and hit three 3s, but I was OK with that because other guys were scoring (other than Shamarius “Snook” Peterkin and Joah Shay),” Pittman said. “If you beat us with other guys scoring, then so be it, good for them.”The way the War Eagles responded to Tabor’s push made their fans’ hearts soar. Mickey drove and got an and-one at 5:47. That was exactly what Davie needed. Then Powers took a pass in the right corner from Cole-man Lawhon and made a 3. Ethan Ratledge tipped a Davie miss to Mickey, who immediately hit Landon King in the lane for a bucket. Ratledge spun free in the lane and hit a layup. Mick-ey penetrated and dished to the right corner. Law-hon splashed a 3 as he was knocked down in front of the Davie bench, resulting in a four-point play. In a span of 2:01, the War Eagles ripped off a 14-2 run. They converted 5 of 7 field goals, scored on five of six possessions and soared to a 56-43 lead. Meanwhile, Tabor scored on one of five possessions. That was the knockout blow. That was a two-minute spurt for the ages. “The game could have gone either way, but the guys did a good job of listening and being coachable,” Pitt-man said. “The energy was right, the bench was locked in and everybody that came in contributed. Everybody was focused, the effort that Streak ... you need to beat those type of teams.”Davie beat Tabor for the first time since Feb-ruary 2022 behind a huge game from Lawhon, who scored 19 points by hitting 4 of 8 bombs. It was his biggest scoring output in 18 games. For good mea-sure, he yanked down six rebounds. “Coleman hit some dag-gers,” Pittman said. Powers (14 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals) and Mickey (12 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists) were stalwarts as usual. “Bryson controlled the game and had a huge and-one to settle us back down,” Pittman said. But Davie’s ability to contain Peterkin (12 points) and Shay (five) was a big part of it. Pittman employed a triangle-and-two on Ta-bor’s two main weapons and occasionally a box-and-one on Peterkin. “Gavin Williams, Landon King, Ethan Driver, Braddock Coleman, Adam Brown - when you put all those guys on them and they are expending energy and working them, it’s hard to play four quarters and still have your offense in the fourth quarter,” Pittman said. “Landon and Snook have played together since sixth grade in AAU, so Landon knows everything Snook’s going to do. He was aggressive with him and that’s how we’ve got to play. He played well in that role.“At halftime I told them: ‘If we keep playing defense, we’re going to be fine. I can’t promise you we’re go-ing to win, but I can promise you we’re going to be right there in position to win.’ They sat down and bought in on defense. I heard Ethan (Ratledge) in the locker room say: ‘That was an ugly offensive game for me.’ I said: ‘Yeah, but you did so much. Your pace was good, your defense was good, you were talking. Sometimes it’s not about a bucket when you do what you’re doing.’”Davie knows how to spread around the wealth. Powers is averaging 14.8 points, Mickey 13.3, Law-hon 9.6, Ratledge 8.3 and Williams 7.6. “I love this team because I feel like everybody is play-ing their role,” Pittman said. “When they do that, we’re tough.”Notes: Seven War Eagles contributed points against Tabor, including Williams (seven), King (four), Rat-ledge (two) and Ethan Driv-er (one). ... Davie stopped a four-game winning streak by the Spartans, who went 14-0 in the CPC last year. ... The 2018-19 bunch that won 13 straight also relied on a balanced attack. Owen McCormack scored 13.6 per game, Michael Walton 13, Jacob Hendrix 12.5, Troy Griggs 10.5 and Brooks Johnson 8. ... Davie’s last win in the series was 58-54 on Feb. 1, 2022, when Za’haree Maddox and Blake Walser scored 17 each and Zymere Hudson 12. practice today.”Here was the cherry on top: Brown passed to Pow-ers in the left corner. He was open for a 3, but in-stead of firing, he spotted Ratledge cutting through the lane. Ratledge’s uncon-tested layup was the dagger at 62-57. “That’s all about sharing the ball and making the extra pass,” Pittman said. “Early in the game, we passed the ball seven times and we ended up getting a 3-pointer from Bryson. We passed the ball, we penetrated, we stopped, we kicked. That’s stuff we work on every day and I was impressed. Sometimes you just have to sit back and let ‘em play.”Ratledge only needed six shots to score 13. Lawhon turned in 13 points and five rebounds. Gavin Williams chipped in five points. Davie drew four charges in all, including one each from Williams and Mickey. “I keep telling everybody that will listen, Ethan (Rat-ledge) can play basketball,” Pittman said. “He’s crafty. He scored at the end of the half, and the one at the end of the third, he came to the left, came back right, went to the free-throw line, hesi-tated, crossed back over and made the layup. Those are big plays.”The War Eagles beat Reagan after losing four of the previous five meetings, and they reached the best start in 24 years. The 1999-00 squad that was led by Duane Phillips/Dominic Graham and coached by Jim Young opened 15-0. “This win was extremely important, but I don’t want them to settle,” Pittman said.

MAIN STREET • MOCKSVILLE, NC(336) 751-2120 B4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Jan. 11, 2024 Continued From Page B1from Virginia, two from Tennessee, two from South Carolina, one from West Virginia and 46 from North Carolina. “It’s usually even crazier competition there with a lot of Georgia teams,” Stanley said. “It’s one of those that is the closest to simulating the state tournament.”Hunter Testa was Davie’s champ with a 5-0 run at 175. He pinned his opponent in the finals, pushed his season record to 24-0 and ran his four-year record to 134-7. “Honestly, the bigger win was in the semifinals because it’s a monkey that’s been on his back,” Stanley said. “When he’s talking to college coaches, they’re like: ‘Why have you not won the big one?’ He’s lost in the semifinals in big events all the way up to na-tional events, so he got that monkey off his back.”Testa’s semifinal oppo-nent was a pain for six-plus minutes, but the star senior emerged with a thrilling 5-3 overtime victory. That’s the kind of win that is good for Testa’s psyche as he moves forward. “If you are built similar to Hunter and you don’t have a gas tank, it’s hard to stand a chance against Tes-ta,” Stanley said. “The guy in the semis was real long. When Hunter got him tired, the guy started diving under and putting Hunter in funky situations that Hunter’s not as comfortable with. It was cool watching him gut it out. Hunter is technical and by the book, so when you take him off the script sometimes he will pause in situations. It was an awkward match for Hunter, so him winning that was big.”Cayden Glass (3-1 at 120) steamrolled his way to the finals, where he suffered his first loss of the season. Yeah, Glass’ junior-season winning streak ended at 22, but he pushed a defending state champion to the brink with a hair-raising rally. “He lost to a state champ (from 3-A Cape Fear),” Stanley said. “Cayden’s wrestling better than I’ve ever seen him. No excus-es, we lost to a tough guy in the finals. That guy is really long and likes to do funky stuff, and that is not Cayden’s thing; that is more like Aidan’s game (Aidan Szewczyk). So Cayden was a little more hesitant than he should’ve been and he did not pull the trigger.”Glass stormed back in a blink before narrowly losing 10-7. “Cayden was down by five and hit a big gator roll and put the kid on his back,” Stanley said. “He was all but pinned and tied the match up. It was a crazy, last-sec-ond match.”Sophomore Tiaj Thao (5-1 at 126) delivered a formidable performance on the way to third place. Five War Eagles placed in the top five, including senior Brysen Godbey (3-2 for fourth at 215) and freshman Aidan Szewczyk (3-2 for fifth at 113). Davie got 3-2 efforts from sophomore Andy Da-vis (138), sophomore Mad-dox Creason (165) and ju-nior Ryder Strickland (285). Going 2-2 were sophomore Braxton Hunter (132), ju-nior Brett Foster (144) and senior Jerred Alexander (157). Davie got one win from freshman Stephen Jacobs (106), senior Luke Tehandon (126), sophomore Jamarius Pelote (150) and junior Christian Boswell (190). “There were a lot of small victories,” Stanley said. “Ryder had to battle through an injury.”Other top records on the team: Godbey 25-4, Strickland 24-3, Foster 24-4, Thao 23-3, Davis 22-3 and Szewczyk 18-2. Junior VarsityDavie made plenty of noise in the JV tournament at the Grapple. Freshman Leighton Reavis took first at 113. Freshman Walker Mat-thews and junior Joe Wilds were second at heavyweight and 190, respectively. “We had some cool ex-periences for the younger guys,” Stanley said. “Leigh-ton is a freshman we’re ex-cited to see him coming up. Walker is a heavyweight that is way undersized. He’s 220 pounds; he should probably be wrestling 215. Joe did really well. He’s just now getting on the mat. He had a knee injury. He’s only been in for three weeks or a month. The first week he was healthy, he took our 190-pounder (Boswell) to overtime in a wrestle-off. So Joe is a freak. And he’s an infectious, everybody loves him. Everybody is real high on him.”Javon Carter did not fin-ish among the top two at 157, but he’s a freshman to keep an eye out for. “Javon did really well,” Stanley said. “He’s one of those younger guys we want to keep feeding matches to. When he starts turning the right direction, he’s going to be scary. He’s just a baby at wrestling. When he starts figuring it out, he’s going to be scary.”Davie 72, Tabor 10Davie breezed past Tabor on the road on Jan. 4 and moved to 15-1 overall and 4-0 in the Central Piedmont Conference. Szewczyk, Creason, Tes-ta and Godbey had pins. Tehandon won by injury de-fault. The Spartans forfeited to Jacobs, Thao, Hunter, Davis, Foster, Elliott Gould and Alexander. The Davie girls received six forfeits and defeated Tabor 36-12. Tourney ... Senior Hunter Testa went 5-0 in the Gate City Grapple and has a 25-0 record at 175.

After back-to-back losses by four and two points in mid-December, the War Eagles got back on track with a 49-44 win over the Raiders. “That was a much-needed win,” coach Tracey Arnold said. “I think they had only lost one game, so they were coming in on a high. We had four good practices over the break. We kind of found some things defensive-wise.”Davie was behind 21-17 at halftime, but CJ Coleman and the War Eagles had their way in the third quarter. Coleman recorded eight of 18 points as Davie roared to a 35-31 lead. “We’ve played good in the third quarter about all year,” Arnold said. “We found a groove and got going.”In the fourth, some sloppy play by Davie allowed Tabor to stay within shouting distance. But it did enough to get out of Pfafftown with the win. Jake Runge’s six points in the fourth helped Davie protect the lead. Ben Reid finished with a team-high 14, followed by Cole- man and Runge with 12 each. Braxton Bowling had seven and Jayden Warren four. “We were up six or seven, but we threw the ball away two or three times because we were rushing and still chasing points,” Arnold said. “We didn’t have to do anything but hold the ball, so we’ve still got some areas we’ve got to clean up.”Tabor 71, Davie 32The next game two days later at Mt. Tabor brought a thud. Davie got pummeled by 39. You know it’s a forgettable day when you allow a season high in points and score a season low. Davie (7-3 overall, 1-2 Central Piedmont Conference) trailed by 24 at halftime and by 32 at the end of the third. “They were good at what they do, and we didn’t handle the pressure well,” Arnold said. “We had too many turnovers (35). We played a bad game and I started playing subs early in the third.”The Davie scorers were Bowl-ing (eight), Cam Knox (six), Cole-man (four), Warren (four), George Sakai (four), Aiden Horton (three), Runge (two) and Ty Greene (one).

One of four children, he was born in Alexander County in 1942 to the late Willie Adams Warren and Melvina Thompson White and attended Alexander County Schools. In 2004 David married Caroll El-liott of Iredell County. The couple settled on Shaw Road off Rimrock Road. Retired from Keever Heat-ing and Air of Taylorsville, David enjoyed spending time with family including his four children. A country fellow at heart, he loved anything country but espe-cially country music.For the past several years, David and Caroll faithfully attended Calvary Baptist and were active in all areas of service. A ser-vice celebrating his life will be held at 3 p.m. Jan. 13 at the church. There will be no formal visitation.

How far would you go to be popular and hot?The South Davie Mid-dle School Musical Theatre invites you to step into the hilarious musical “Mean Girls Jr.” about the dangers of chasing popularity and the importance of being true to oneself. Public performances are Thursday and Friday, Jan. 18 and 19, at 6 p.m. in the school theatre. “Mean Girls Jr.” is adapted from Tina Fey’s 2004 film and the Broad-way hit. It tells the story of student Cady Heron Tate Sechrest, William Martin, Austin Samuels and Aiden Houser at the Halloween party. The Plastics - played by Ellie Wilson, Kiera Ly- unch and Akema Holland. Sylas Johnson and Kenzie Boldt rehearse their parts for the production. South Davie Musical Theatre students rehearse the kickline for the up- coming production of “Mean Girls JR.” Popular and hot Musical explores dilemma for teens (played by Marley Shoe-maker) who must learn to navigate the social hierar-chy of high school when her family moves to subur-ban Illinois from Kenya.The opening act in-troduces the audience to Cady’s new classmates at North Shore High. She meets the co-chair of the Student Activities Com-mittee, Damian (played by Sylas Johnson). Damian also serves as one of the show’s narrators. Dami-an is joined by best friend Janice (played by Kenzie Boldt), where they quickly give Cady a lay of the land when it comes to cliques.Nothing from Cady’s time in the African savan-na has prepared her for the wild and vicious ways of her strange new home: sub-urban Illinois. How will this naive newbie rise to the top of the popularity pecking order? By taking on “The Plas-tics,” a trio of lionized fren-emies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George (played by Kiera Lynch.) When Cady and Regina meet for the first time, the queen bee invites the new student to sit with the Plas-tics at their lunch table. Janice and Damian encour-age their new friend to “re-port back” about what the trio does. Although reluctant, Cady goes undercover as an aspiring Plastic.In calculus class Cady meets Aaron Samuels (played by Shan’Trell Par-ris), who happens to be Re-gina’s ex-boyfriend. Cady tells Regina’s best friend and fellow Plastic, Gretch-en (played by Akema Hol-land), that she has a crush on Aaron. After a betrayal from her new-found Plastic friends, Cady, Damian and Janice devise a plan to end Regina’s reign. Cady learns the hard way that you can’t cross a queen bee without getting stung.Damian and Janice help Cady plan revenge on the Plastics. When the lines between the real Cady, and the Plastic version that she created begin to blur, she must find a way back to her true self and real friends.The audience can expect the same story line as the movie, mixed with 21 mu-sical numbers to move the plot forward. All inappro-priate content was removed from the story.“Mean Girls JR. is a hilarious and totally fetch show with some very important lessons about friendship, authenticity, and accountability,” said Brenda Mosko,” choral director. “Throughout the musical, we watch charac-ters journey from changing parts of themselves in order to belong, to living as the unique and brave shining stars that they are. We hope you’ll support these terrific students and their wonder-ful production.”Tickets are $10. To learn more, call 336.751.5941.
