In fact, a speaker at the Friday night VIP dinner, Ann Groninger, is an attor-ney and founder of Bike Law, and wrote the “Ride Guide.” The law says motorists should have at least three feet between them and a cyclist when pass-ing. Common sense tells when it’s safe to pass, Sawtelle said.Former Olympic cyclist and Tour de France participant Brent Bookwalter will also speak. Local bike restorer and collector Walt Gannon will show his bikes and talk about his hobby.

So the 10/70 per-mit request is where we are ask-ing you as a town to allocate to us part of your acreage to allow us to increase up to 70 percent of build-upon area or impervious area in your watershed.“What that means is this is a permissive request.

Paper showing Thomas Hartley's land bounty. To the editor:What right does someone have to key someone’s car? It happened to my 99-year-old, World War II veteran dad’s car on Sunday, April 7. We were parked legally in a handicapped parking space with cars parked (also handi-capped spaces) next to us in Lowe’s Home Improvement. Granted, my dad had forgotten to hang the handicapped tag but it was on the dashboard. I’m assuming that’s why whoever keyed the car did it; they didn't see the tag. Regardless, even if it was a car that shouldn't have been in a handicapped spot, what right does someone have to damage (which is also illegal) someone else’s property?Too often these days, people are taking the law or their perception of the law into their own hands. What’s even more dangerous is the ignorance under which they are operating. My only satisfaction in this situation is that I believe in divine justice and I know that someday it will catch up with whoever keyed the car.Lita WieterMocksville People taking perception of law into own handsBy John HoodBecause North Carolina is one of the seven states likely to determine the outcome of the 2024 presidential elec-tion, and also boasts highly competitive contests for gov-ernor and other statewide offices, local races may not be top-of-mind for most voters. Nevertheless, North Carolinians will elect hundreds of county and municipal officials this year — which es-sentially puts the issue of adequate, affordable housing on the ballot. Unlike most of the issues featured in federal and statewide campaigns, housing policy doesn’t generate predictably partisan debates. As I’ve observed in previous columns, you’ll find Democrats and Republicans who favor zoning reforms and other policies that facilitate higher-density develop-ment. You’ll also find Democrats and Republicans who oppose these reforms, expressing concerns about traffic, property values and quality of life. On housing costs, North Carolina is doing better than most. Last year, U.S. News ranked our state 17th in af-fordability, and recent upsurges in new construction have helped moderate or even reverse increases in average rents. Chuck McShane, director of market analytics for the real-estate research firm CoStar, reports that Char-lotte’s projected 13.2% increase in multifamily units this year will be the largest of all major markets, making up 29.3% of all new housing. Raleigh is also near the top of the list, with multifamily making up 12.5%. For many new and not-at-all-new North Carolinians, finding an af-fordable place to live remains a challenge.Local officials have a major role to play in addressing this challenge, as do state lawmakers. They need to make it easier to build and sell a variety of housing options. That will, in turn, require a realistic and persuasive strategy for engaging folks who view these options with skepticism. Tobias Peter, who codirects the American Enterprise Institute’s Housing Center, spent years developing such a strategy. He calls its Light Touch Density (LTD), defined as “moderately greater density in areas zoned exclusively for single-family detached homes.” As Peter argued in a recent presentation, the strategy’s policy applications de-pend on the particularities of a market. In existing neigh-borhoods where home prices are already high, for exam-ple, a reasonable LTD policy would be to allow property owners to replace a single unit with a complex of between two and eight units. In the medium-cost neighborhoods that constitute most of the housing stock in North Car-olina’s metropolitan areas, Peter recommends allowing property owners to add units to the existing home, wheth-er they be attached or detached. Other LTD reforms can be adopted across jurisdictions, including states. One would be a process for preapproving design standards for accessory dwelling units. Another is a shot clock - a time limit on the permitting process so that if regulators act too slowly, applicants receive full or partial approval when the clock runs out. Even such light touches have opponents. Peter advises housing advocates to engage them, gain a better under-standing of their concerns and respond in ways that reflect that understanding. To left-leaning residents, emphasize how higher-density infill will foster walkable commu-nities and disrupt the vestiges of past discrimination. To right-leaning residents, emphasize LTD’s respect for prop-erty rights and use of private rather than taxpayer dollars to ameliorate the housing crunch. As for those who don’t really view the housing issue (at least) through an ideological lens, Peter argues that his light-touch strategy “offers gradual change and avoids un-intended consequences.” The stakes couldn’t be higher. University of Iowa professor Jerry Anthony researched how housing issues interact with the broader economic health of American communities. In a study of the country’s 100 most-pop-ulous metros, Anthony found that “decreases in housing affordability had a statistically significant negative effect on economic growth.” Though pro-housing policies have often been “seen as a social imperative,” he concluded that they “may well be an economic imperative also.” North Carolina needs to get this right; and North Car-olina voters need to hear more about it during this year’s elections.

In agreement on housing Thomas Hartley, PatriotBy Linda H. BarnetteAnother Revolutionary War patriot in my family was my 4th great-grandfather, Thomas Hartley, born in 1762 in Maryland and died in 1842 in Davidson County. His grave is the oldest one in my family group at Sandy Creek Cemetery in Tyro.He is mentioned for several years in the Rowan County Census. He was married twice, and it was from his first marriage to Milly Burgess that my relationship came, specifically from his son John. In the NC Deed books for Rowan County there are several listings for property bought by Thomas and his brothers, Richard, Laban, and Benjamin.On 1810 Thomas purchased two tracts of land, “200 A adj Widow Goss and 231/2 A on Sandy Creek near tract.” Interestingly enough, he paid Mack Crump $675 for that property, which placed him in the area where my ancestors lived on Horseshoe Neck Road. And the Crump land ap-pears in his will and in my great-great grandfather, Hiram H. Hartley’s will, meaning that it stayed in that family for a long time. The Census of 1820 shows him living at “Bat-talions 2 and 4 on the Lexington side”Thomas also received land grant #2073 issued in 1792 for 144 acres on the waters of Woods Creek in Tennessee as a reward/payment for whatever services he rendered to the patriot cause during the Revolutionary War. Not all patriots fought in the actual war, but many showed their support by giving them goods for which they were reward-ed with land as the government had little money but lots of property. Thomas is also listed in the 1937 book listing patriots during the war. Sharing a copy of the land grant and his pension here. Note to remember: most of the land bounties were issued before the current boundaries of Ten-nessee and North Carolina were drawn. What Lives OnBy Stephanie Williams DeanMy favorite travel experiences are those I carve out of a busy schedule and set aside to enjoy life a little. From day trips to more extended vacations, my best travel expe-riences include hobbies such as painting or writing. I also enjoy educational travel – where you research before you go and then locate historical sites or visit museums. On a recent excursion, I sequestered for a week at a delightful compost for writers, located in the small com-munity of Flat Creek – just a tiny dot on the map and smack dab center in the picturesque, rolling hills of Mid-dle Tennessee. The writers’ colony in College Grove had once been operated as a luxury bed and breakfast inn – so the place claimed a big history. Hospitable, gracious innkeepers, friendly, smiling travelers, and an abundance of delicious food characterized the inn that operated for almost a decade. The history of this country inn began before the Civ-il War. Sometime between the years 1853 and 1857 the original farmhouse had been built. While the home was invaded by Yankee raiding parties, it was spared from be-ing burned down because the builder was a Northern sym-pathizer. Afterward, before becoming a bed and breakfast inn, the farmhouse had enjoyed six generations of folks who identified the quaint place as home. While gently rocking in a white, wooden rocker on the front porch, from the hill, my eyes swept over lush, green pastures, imagining a day when a horse-drawn bug-gy might have rolled along that dirt country road. I could picture hard-working slaves hand-building rock fences on the 1000-acre working farm – a scene that grounded the land in historical significance.The home was converted to a luxury country inn af-ter being purchased in 1992 by a couple who began reno-vations the next year. The front three rooms of the house and the quaint front porch were left intact while the hand-hewed, red cedar beams remained and were left exposed as well as two large rock fireplaces. In addition to the orig-inal farmhouse, other old, historical structures had been renovated and repurposed – another plus. Then in 1993, rooms were added to the farmhouse along with a huge gourmet kitchen. Cooking with the most modern of ameni-ties, innkeepers prepared delectable, mouthwatering meals for guests – no one would have left their table hungry.What remains of those wonderful days lives on in the memories of folks who traveled there – and the inn’s cookbook that attests to innkeepers’ favorite breakfasts, delicious lunches, and candlelight dinners once enjoyed around a dining table. That alone is enough to stir the imagination. So, for me, and all the writers who travel there, now – we can only imagine these days gone by.So, thank you, Lord. I long for more places and mo-ments, where and when, I can imagine. Step Back in TimeBy E. Bishop“Tobacco barns once numbered a half million and were fixtures on farms across the state. Today, only about 50,000 still stand, vestiges of the tobacco industry, deteri-orating reminders of the leave’s influence on our culture.” (August 2013, Our State magazine article by Susan Staf-ford Kelly.) These curing barns were an essential part in the process of air-curing tobacco and were most often built in or near the tobacco fields from a variety of hardwood trees such as oak, elm or hickory. They were built tall and narrow with the tobacco being strung up to the rafters for drying. Three centuries of history are slowly fading away with the disappearance of these structures.However, one local family has saved two of these struc-tures from demolition. Jeff and Nicole Ferrell were gift-ed one of the barns from good friends who had originally purchased it at auction on a farm on Feezer Road in Davie County. These friends had moved it to High Rock Lake with the intention of restoring it but never did. So, with the help of friends and his three sons, Griffin, Parker and Van, Jeff numbered, disassembled, and recreated the barn on its current foundation back in Davie County. The other tobacco barn came later from a farm on John Crotts Road; DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 18, 2024 - 3 Sign up for the Enterprise Record weekly newsletter “Services” at www.ourdavie.com Kelly Funderburk takes her job as the Register of Deeds for Davie County seriously.The latest is a pres-ervation project for old marriages licenses.“Funderburk has shown her commitment to pre-serving historical docu-ments in her office and Davie County marriage licenses was an area that needed attention,” County Manager Brian Barnett said in his newsletter.“Preserving and protect-ing Davie County’s histor-ical records is something I take very seriously,” Funderburk said. “In North Carolina, all 100 counties Davie County Register of Deeds staff has begun the process of restoring old marriage licenses in Davie County, and putting them into new binders (below right). Crumbling at the seams Register of Deeds restoring old marriage licenses are required by statute to have an Automation En-hancement and Preserva-tion Fund (AEPF) allowing 10 percent of monthly revenues to be expended on the preservation and storage of public records. “Seeing that Davie County’s oldest marriage licenses were crumbling apart at the seams, I knew it was crucial to begin a preservation project on these important documents dating back to 1868,” she said."By preserving a few years at a time, we have begun a beautiful series of leather-bound books encapsulating our pre- served marriage licenses, which are no longer facing destruction, but are re-taining their character and historical significance for perpetuity.”Davie County works with preservation compa-ny, Kofile in Greensboro, to bring the documents back to life. The process includes cleaning the pages, remov-ing any tape with alcohol and acetone, repairing tears with an archival heat-set tissue, applying non-aque-ous deacidification with magnesium oxide, encap-sulating the documents in 2 mil polyester film sleeves, and then encapsulating all pages in a slide and release post leather binding. “Prior to agreeing to work with Kofile, I toured their lab in Greensboro,” Funderburk said. “Their work, the preservation lab, and the care they show for historical documents is amazing and very much like work produced from the National Archives.” Barnett said: “Funderburk and her staff are proud of the work of the marriage license pres-ervation project and hope residents know that the Register of Deeds makes it a priority to preserve and care for Davie County’s history.” Continued From Page 2quite a few logs had to be discarded near the foundation and built up from there on this barn. It has been preserved as a small stand-alone barn.Jeff said it is a great feeling to know that a piece of his-tory is being preserved with these two barns although the first one mentioned has had a much larger transformation. After the two or three days of numbering the 105 logs and reconstructing the building on its foundation, a roof, front and back porches were added and chinking between the logs had to be completed. At least six large buckets of chinking material were used. Jeff stated it’s been an inter-esting adventure. He has also hunted down old relics, such as plows, utilized on a farm to use as decorations. This labor of love took approximately 17 months to complete.The Little Log Roost is a step back in time when things were a little simpler, when food was raised and processed at home, when entertainment was spending time togeth-er with neighbors and loved ones, just watching the sun set or sitting by a fire. The Ferrell’s enjoy spending time outdoors at their 1910 tobacco barn turned cabin where there is a flat-top cooker, charcoal grill, fire pit and modern outhouse with all the amenities needed. It is also available for family BBQ’s, weekend getaways, children’s birthday parties or a simple romantic retreat.

Wooten dropped off a check to the Davie Com-munity Foundation for the scholarship donations. He has been an employee at Wayne Farms for the past 15 years and spoke on the company’s commitment to being a “partner of choice” with local communities, farmers, and customers. In 2021, Wayne Farms purchased the old J.P. Green Milling Co. which operated for more than a century off E. Depot St. “Wayne Sanderson Farms has worked diligent-ly to help address the con-cerns of the local residents and to keep an open line of communication about the process,” Wooten said. He assures the community that the new facility will not pose some of the same issues previously experi-enced such as the dust pol-lution.After beginning with what Wooten claims as a bit of a “rocky start”, he is happy to hear that the com-munity is starting to buzz about the benefits the new plant will offer. The new feed mill will not only revi- talize that part of town, but also provide about 20 new job opportunities. Wayne Sanderson Farms will purchase corn from the farmers of Davie and surrounding areas and will provide better unload-ing experiences and more stable production for these local farms.The company has made contributions to the Da-vie Community Founda- tion scholarship funds for the past three years.

The density has been set. The use has been set.”Like Mayor Mike Bran-non said in the previous meeting: “Given the de-veloper now owns the Hall Walker properties, it seems to me this is no longer if the developer builds, but what and how the developer builds.”Those speaking in the public comments portion of the public hearing on the 10/70 request were over-whelmingly against the provision with one stating it was a “privilege, not a right,” and others stating various concerns, including “questioning the total acres and lack of information,” making the town “less charming,” the “impact on traffic, stormwater and home values” and “protect-ing the watershed,” among others.Patricia Williams, who lives in Kinderton Village, was the last to speak, saying this wasn’t going to look like any Norman Rock-well community. “Density, clogged intersections, more traffic, does that sound fa-miliar? We’ve been here be-fore not so long ago. When I moved to Kinderton 12 years ago, it was beautiful and still is, but it’s changed a lot since then. It’s no lon-ger quiet. Progress does not mean more. Less is better.”Carl Carney, the pres-ident of Davie Construc-tion who has a business in Kinderton Business Park, was the lone speaker in fa-vor of the project, which has been a hot topic in the town since last summer.“Sheetz, Chick-fil-A, all the people that are here, the DOT, all the road work has been put in place. They didn’t come here because they think it’s going to be flowers and cows over there,” Carney said. “I mean, this neighborhood is in the perfect spot across from Baptist Medical Cen-ter to build quality housing spread out over an area that will be an asset to our com-munity.”Details of the request from the applicants (Bermu-da Run Investments, Lau-rie Ford and Atrium/Wake Forest Baptist Health, a late addition to the application to provide additional front-age for a new access point on NC 801) included peti- ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS TOWN OF MOCKSVILLE WATER FACILITIES CONTRACT 16.0 – NORTH ELEVATED TANK Sealed Bids for the construction of Contract 16.0 – North Ele- vated Tank will be received by the Town of Mocksville, at Town Hall, 171 South Clement Street, Mocksville, NC 27028, until 2:00 pm local time on Thursday, May 23, 2024 at which time the Bids received will be publicly opened and read.

The applicant was pro-posing 31.5 acres of imper-vious area within the project area. The total impervious areas of the site would be 52.5 percent. The three lots are not currently in the town limits, but the applicant sub-mitted a voluntary annex-ation petition.Conditions of approval included a maximum num-ber of dwelling units limited to 505; a maximum number of apartment units to be lim-ited to 280; sidewalks shall be included along all public streets; a soft (pervious) na-ture trail shall be construct-ed; and the maximum build-ing height for multifamily and non-residential shall be limited to four stories. Hodierne, who said the petitioner worked to align the project with the town’s Comprehensive Plan, dis-cussed more buffering be-ing added and that the ac-cess point had been changed from Yadkin Valley Road to NC 801 based on concerns regarding traffic flow. She also showed how the prop-erty, with 66.11 total acres, would look with the 10/70 allocation and without it.Council member Melin-da Szeliga asked if the 10/70 was not allocated, would the project be all multifamily instead of a combination of townhomes and apartments, and Hodierne said it would be all apartments but just a small percentage would be three bedrooms if it came to that.Council member Jeff Tedder inquired about the timing of the project, and Hodierne responded that de-pending on the outcome, it will probably be developed in two to four phases.Szeliga made the motion to proceed with the 10/70 allocation with conditions, and council member Christy Schafer seconded it with a vote of 5-0 in favor.After that approval, the annexation request moved along much more quick-ly with only four speakers in the public hearing – all sharing concerns such as the impact on the town, schools, fire/police protection, medi-cal care, street maintenance and other services, along with high density and the watershed also being ig-nored.That followed with Scha- fer making the motion for approval of the annexation request with council mem-ber Mike Ernst seconding it with another 5-0 vote in favor.In a staff document to the council regarding the petition for annexation, it was stated that the proposed development will likely add 1,016 new residents to a town that has an estimated population just in excess of 3,000.•The other business item on last Tuesday night’s agenda was another public hearing and 10/70 request for property located on Peachtree from Davie Con-struction and RED 32 LLC to lead off the meeting.Brad Chapman, speaking on behalf of Davie Con-struction and RED 32, said the owners are proposing a drive-thru coffee shop, Caribou Coffee, with a re-quest for roughly 0.45 acres (1,906 square feet) to allow for plan design of 10 park-ing spots along the southern edge of the property.No one signed up for the public hearing, and the council unanimously moved to approve the requested 10/70 allocation.

She’s a regular at Lowe’s Home Improvement in Mocksville, where employees know her by name. She loves sitting atop Mark’s shoulders, and go- ing everywhere ... on the lake, on va- cation, just to town. And yes, she likes to wear those dog- gie overalls.

South Davie students view the eclipse 12 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 18, 2024 The unassuming, clapboard farmhouse perched atop a rocky hill–centered smack dab in the middle of a thousand acres of rolling Tennessee hills. The destination was per-fect for a self-proclaimed hillbilly like myself. Sequester-ing at a writer’s colony, authors hunkered down at desks to hone their craft while surrounded by a peacefulness most conducive to focused writingExcept for a thunderous storm that approached and hard rains pinging off the tin roof, the destination had delivered on its promises – a quiet and serene place to work. Hav-ing weathered many storms, the old farmhouse had withstood the test of time. The dwelling quietly murmured deep secrets – those of a Civil War survivor. The home had proved unshakable – left untouched – still standing on its foundation. Surrounded by some big history and a few captivating tales to go with it – I was lured in. Before being sold and transi-tioning into a retreat for writers, the farmhouse had enjoyed life as a 4-diamond country inn that was operated as a bed and breakfast for ten years. Dating back to 1853, the farmhouse had been carefully renovated with an emphasis on respecting and preserving the old, while blending with the new. The property boasted seven bedrooms and baths, spacious common ar-eas, a historic log cabin, a grana-ry, and flower-filled gardens perfectly outlined by white picket fences – all enveloped in pristine, green pasture.Part of the home’s renovations had included designing a huge, gourmet kitchen – one fully equipped with what’s necessary to easily prepare such a meal. For my meals, I put the gas stove to good use – savoring sauteed fresh veg-etables, God’s bounty, eaten with toasted slices of home-made bread. And I don’t eat bread without spread – so yes, a smear of strawberry honey butter. The inn’s kitchen bookcases were chock full of recipe books that caught my eye – one, a cookbook from the inn's former glory days as a bed and breakfast. What a delicious history. For years, the innkeepers had delighted in serving wanderlust guests with favorite family recipes. I’m pass-ing a few of those favorites along to readers this week. You know, whenever and wherever I travel, I’m always happy to return home. Our homes should always be our happy places of fortitude and strength – safe places to ride out life’s storms. The Bible tells us that to build strong and happy homes, we must have Jesus Christ as the founda-tion. Jesus taught about those who build houses on rock, say-ing, “Therefore, everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.” (NIV)To those of us who put our faith in Him, Jesus is the solid rock foundation upon which we build our Christian lives and the rock we lean on – our salvation.

Spencer Williams, a sophomore thrower at UNC, was a four-time state champion for Davie track & field, winning the outdoor shot put in 2021, the indoor shot put in 2022, the outdoor shot put in 2022 and the discus in 2022 - and breaking numerous state records along the way. Younger brother Cooper Wil-liams, a Davie junior who captured the state indoor shot put title this winter, wrote a new chapter in the storybook of his already amazing high school career when Davie participated in a track meet at West Cabarrus on April 10. Cooper broke Spencer’s junior state record in the shot put, and he did it in incredible fashion. He heaved it 63 feet, two inches, which was more than five feet past his previous personal record. “Cooper has had good practices and he’s been throwing close to 60, but I did not have any illusions that he was going to unleash a PR Those Williams Brothers Cooper breaks Spencer’s shot put record By Brian PittsEnterprise Record A 3-0 week changed the whole vibe of the Davie varsity softball season. • The War Eagles had lost 10 of 11 to East Forsyth before winning in Kernersville on April 8. • On March 12 they lost to Reagan for the first time ever, but they got revenge - and then some - against the Raiders on April 12. • They were 0-3 in one-run games going into a nonconference game at Lake Norman on April 13. They stopped that little curse with a 2-1 win over the Wildcats. Just like that, the War Eagles are riding a seven-game winning streak, they’re back in the hunt for at least a share of the Central Pied-mont Conference title and the 6-5 record on March 21 feels distant. Davie 8, East 6The final score at East Forsyth is misleading. Davie carried an 8-0 lead into the bottom of the seventh. Coach Nathan Handy made some changes and the War Eagles had a meltdown, then held on for a crucial win. “I learned that regardless of the score against quality opponents, you keep your foot on the gas pedal and you don’t let off,” Handy said. “I think I let off a little bit and it changed the complexion of the ballgame very, very quickly. It about cost us the game.”After East’s pitcher retired nine in a row, Davie broke the game open in the fifth, scoring four runs and building a 5-0 lead. It extended the lead in the sixth and seventh. Jadyn Davis went 2 for 4 to keep her robust average at .500. Addie Brown went 2-4 and hom-ered, the second bomb of the season for the freshman. Carleigh Croom also went 2-4 and stole four bases. Raelyn Lankford doubled and walked; Raney Phelps singled, walked and scored two runs; Han-na Steinour drove in two with a hit; and Ashley Bledsoe tripled and reached base three times. Landy Parson added a single as Davie collected 11 hits. “Jadyn’s just an offensive ma-chine. That’s really what she is,” Handy said. “Carleigh came up big for us. She scored to get us on the board in the second. She’s Please See Williams - Page B2 Softball back in the hunt been putting the ball in play and having good at-bats - she just couldn’t find a hole. Tonight she got two (hits). Addie came through for us twice. She made adjustments from the first two at-bats and got a single and a home run. As soon as it hit the bat, you knew it was gone. There was no doubt on (the homer). Hanna’s been going through a slump, but she’s been working hard and has been hitting well at practice. Every time she came up to bat, except for the walk she had, she put the ball in play. She hit a shot in the third inning that the shortstop just made a great backhand play on. She had a great night.”Through six innings, strikeout artist Riley Potts had a five-hit shutout with 13 Ks. Since Davie had a commanding lead, Handy lifted her and threw a bone to his backup arms. Two relievers strug-gled and East’s offense came alive. Handy went back to Potts before Davie completely collapsed and she secured one of the rarest stats for a pitcher - she got the win and the save in the same game. She gave up one run in seven innings and struck out 15 on 145 pitches. “We played a great game for six and a half innings,” Handy said. “We hit well. The biggest thing is, we put the ball in play. “We’ve got to try not to wear Riley out. We’re going to give her some rest. I hope that’s the only one (a win and save in the same game) she ever has to worry about.”Notes: East, which beat Reagan 7-6, dropped to 7-7 overall. ... The win broke a tie for third, with Davie improving to 7-2 in the CPC and East slipping to 5-3. ... Last year East eked out two one-run wins over Davie - 6-5 and 5-4. When Davie beat East 5-1 in eight innings in the CPC Tournament final, it ended a 10-game losing streak in the series. Davie 7, Reagan 0In the first meeting in Pfafftown in March, Reagan freshman Cay-cee Wilson threw a three-hitter, struck out 11 and carried the Raiders to their first ever victory, 1-0, over Davie. The War Eagles didn’t just Please See Hunt - Page B2 By Brian PittsDavie Enterprise Record Davie’s varsity baseball team is back from oblivion. When the War Eagles were outscored 28-1 over four games against West Forsyth and Reagan, their offense was frighteningly anemic. Davie sweeps East But coach Joey Anderson and his staff plugged holes in the leaky ship, Coy James is scorching the earth with his bat, Drew Krause and Hunter Potts are producing at the plate, and the pitchers keep getting the job done. Last week’s resounding sweep of East Forsyth did wonders for Davie’s image. The War Eagles have won five straight against East dating to last year. What makes their mastery of East all the more stunning is East is 34-10 across the 2023-24 seasons - with half the losses to Davie. Whew. East was in sole possession of first in the Central Piedmont Conference before running into Davie. The top four in the CPC entering this week: Reagan 9-1, West Forsyth/East 8-2, Davie 6-4. Ridge 3, Davie 2Davie’s loss last week came in nonconference play at Hickory Ridge on April 8. It wasn’t decided until the bottom of the seventh when the Ragin’ Bulls walked it off and dealt Davie its second straight one-run defeat. Anderson wasn’t discouraged. “We’re playing really well,” he said. “The last three games we’ve played, it seems like we’re right at the cusp of turning the corner. But we’re not getting that big hit or we’re not making that big play.”It was a pitchers’ duel that saw both teams commit three errors. James was a one-man gang for Davie. In the third, he fouled off two pitches, then connected for a homer that tied the game at 1. In the fifth, James jumped on the Please See Sweeps - Page B4 Cooper Williams is the new state record-holder in the junior class for the shot put, breaking his brother ’s record.

B2 ‑ DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 18, 2024 payback on April 12, they dominated. Behind five hits from the Lankford/Croom tandem and lights-out pitching from Potts, Davie stopped Reagan’s eight-game winning streak, a run that began with a 4-1 win over West Forsyth. “We’ve seen that fol-lowing the game plan and sticking to is so important,” Handy said. “It’s amazing to see when you have an approach how much of a difference that makes at the plate.”Wilson put up zeroes in the first and second. Davie needed a spark in the third, and hits from Lankford and Steinour provided it as Davie surged to a 3-0 lead. With Brown aboard in the fourth, Croom cranked a two-run homer. Davie pushed the margin to 7-0 in the sixth. Lankford and Croom have been on a skyrocket climb. Lankford’s 3-for-4 night raised her average to .452. Croom went 2-3 with her second homer, making her 8 for 11 during a six-game hitting streak. Stei-nour, Landry Parsons and Brown all went 1-3. “Raelyn has come on of late,” Handy said. “In conference, her average is pushing .750, .800. Anytime we throw to her in the cage or on the field, she is just barreling everything up. She hits the ball so hard.“Before spring break, Carleigh had seen some BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT The BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT- An AFFORDABLE marketing choice!

Kids who put in the extra work are going to eventually produce. She wants it real bad; she wants to help her team.”The nearly unstoppable Potts pitched a two-hitter. To add insult, she struck out 13, faced 25 batters (four over the minimum) and lowered her ERA to 0.91. Potts’ final strikeout was a monumental moment - the record-breaking 156th of the season as she broke her own record. Last year she fanned 155 in 127 innings. She left the Reagan game with - deep breath - 156 Ks in 76 innings. Yes, she broke the record in 51 fewer innings than the year before. “To do it in as few in-nings as she has this year is incredible,” Handy said. “She really worked in the offseason and it has shown. The batters are lost; some-times you can just see it. They’re not even making good swings because some-times they have no clue (what’s coming). Her spins are nasty. It’s just incredible to watch.”Notes: Reagan lost for just the third time in 16 games. ... The race for first is a three-team derby.

Davie 2, LN 1Lake Norman’s Charlee Kelly shoved a three-hitter with 12 Ks, but Davis blast-ed a homer, Phelps passed her biggest test as a pitcher with flying colors, second baseman Ashley Bledsoe absolutely played out of her mind and Davie found a way to prevail in a thrilling nonconference game. “Our defense saved us,” Handy said. “Ashley made four or five great plays.”Davie never trailed thanks to Davis’ solo ho-mer in the first. It was the team-high third bomb for the sophomore. “The Lake Norman coach said it was supposed to be a curveball outside or even off the plate,” Handy said. “They really tried to pitch around Jadyn and Hanna. They tried not to throw them anything that was hittable. She just missed her spot and Jadyn turned on it. She was due for one. She had been hitting the ball hard and just could not find a hole. The best way to find a hole is to just hit it over them.”Davie got an insurance run in the fourth. With two outs, Bledsoe walked and stole second. The next bat-ter, L. Parsons, drove her in with a single. Handy pulled Potts after the third just to give her a break. She got four batters on strikes to push her career strikeout total to 340, one shy of the program record. It’s beyond remarkable that she’ll break that career re-cord as a junior. There’s many ways to look at her substantial im-provement from last year. One thing is her control. Last year she averaged a walk every 2.8 innings; this year she’s walking one every 3.7 innings. “She’s able to hit her spots so much better than last year,” Handy said. “That’s another incredible stat.”When Potts left, Handy gave the ball to a freshman. Phelps had made six re-lief appearances, but she’d not gone longer than two innings and five of those appearances were against low-profile teams (Mt. Tabor, Parkland, Carson, Glenn and Reynolds). But Phelps was terrific against a team that was 12-5 with a four-game winning streak. She had no walks and one run allowed in four innings. “Raney needed to have an opportunity - No. 1, to get her prepared for the playoffs,” Handy said. “We’ve got to have a back-up prepared, and she did a fantastic job.”Phelps faced pressure in the bottom of the seventh. After the first two batters got out, back-to-back singles led to a second-and-third situa-tion with Davie clinging to the 2-1 lead. “I went out and asked Raney if she wanted me to load the bases to have a force anywhere or do you want to pitch to this batter?” Handy said. “Raney said: ‘I want this batter.’”Phelps induced a ground-er to short, and Davis threw to first to secure Davie’s 13th win in 18 games. “That was a big moment for Raney,” Handy said. “She got her with an inside drop ball and got her to roll over on it.”Notes: Davis, Steinour and L. Parsons all went 1-3 against Lake Norman. ... Davis and Lankford are Nos. 1-2 with .460 and .431 averages, respectively. Continued From Page B1by five feet,” coach Rob Raisbeck said. “I mean, that’s almost unheard of.”The 6-2, 290-pounder’s explosion erased Spencer’s junior record toss of 61-11 set in 2021, when he eclipsed a mark that stood since 1983. Cooper’s previ-ous best was 58 feet from the February indoor state meet. “I was having a workout (at Davie) on the track with my distance crew and (Coo-per’s mother) Diane sends me a text that says: ‘OMG. Cooper just threw 63 feet,’” Raisbeck said. “Which is just insane because his PR was 58.” “We were thinking the meet was at 4:30, but by the time the buses got there, the meet was already rolling,” Cooper said. “I was a little nervous because I was wor-ried I missed it. So the stress was really on, the pressure was on, and I think that kicked up my adrenaline and pushed me past my limit.”And then: “Right after I heard the number, I called (Spencer) real quick and told him about it,” Cooper said. “He was really excited for me. He’s been nothing but incredibly supportive throughout my journey. It was like nothing I’ve ever felt before. That was the most excited I think I’ve ever been. After I threw it, it was unbelievable. I was jumping up and hugging my teammates.”Cooper’s 63-2 ranks third overall in the state record books. Spencer still holds the overall record at 66-2.5, but Cooper, who is ranked sixth nationally in the shot in the junior class, has the rest of this season and next year to chase that magical mark. “He’s still got a year to go,” Raisbeck said. “His tra-jectory is just astounding.”“I’m just going to keep working, keep hoping and hope to hit that mark even-tually,” Cooper said. Williams ... DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 18, 2024 ‑ B3 Pretty soon, bass are go-ing to be spawning across North Carolina’s Piedmont, and it won’t be long until big red drum and cobia are entering the state’s saltwa-ter. Since a lot of anglers will practice catch-and-re-lease for bass, can’t keep any big red drum at all, and will have to release any co-bia under 33 inches long, the time begs for a lesson in the successful release of a fish.And it’s second nature to turn to an expert, in this case, Jerry Dilsaver of Oak Island, an expert wild-game and fish chef, expert inshore fisherman, expert kayak fisherman, cham-pion king mackerel fish-erman. If it swims, he can pretty much catch it, and release it if he doesn’t have a fish-driven menu in mind.Dilsaver recognizes four factors in turning a fish you don’t want to keep into a fish that will be there the next time you fish that spot – or there for the next fish-erman, maybe a youngster on his first trip.Don’t handle it too much. Handle it with care. Don’t let the hook do too much damage. Learn how Supporting the belly of a fish while holding it by the mouth will protect internal organs and greatly increase a fish’s chances of surviving being caught and released. A fisherman wouldn’t have any problem removing the hook from this small redfish before releasing, but if the hook is deep in its mouth or throat, consider cutting the line as close to the hook as possible. to put a fish back in the wa-ter.“If you’re going to re-lease a fish, wet your hands, wet a towel, wet some gloves,” he said. “You want something to hold the fish with so that you’re not raking its slime off. If it’s a small fish, it can be held vertically by a gripper (Boga grip, for example).”A fish’s “slime coat” is a layer of mucus that covers its body. It is a key coat-ing that helps a fish fight off parasites or infections, and if removed – even just a small section – the likeli-hood of something bad hap-pening to the fish increases.Beyond grabbing the fish with dry hands, Dilsav-er takes the protection one step further.“If the fish is small enough to net, I like to use a rubber net with big holes – and no knots,” he said, ex-plaining that the knots that connect segments of, say, a nylon net, can also disturb a fish’s slime coat if they rub across its body.“I’ve seen guys rake the fish over one side coming into the boat, raking off all the slime. Handle a fish with care and respect; slime is their protective coating. There are viruses in the wa-ter that can attach to a fish if the slime is gone.“With really big fish, if I’m in my kayak, I like to stick my leg out and lip it, then slide the fish up my leg into my lap. No kayaks are so wide that you can’t do that. You’re supporting its belly that way and not damaging the slime.”I’ve taken plenty of pho-tos of really nice fish that I didn’t want to keep – or wasn’t allowed to – and Dilsaver has recommenda-tions for those situations.“If you want to take a picture of the fish – or if you’re tagging the fish – support its belly; don’t just lip gaff or grab him. As they get bigger, that’s not a good thing, because with-out some support, their in-ternal (organs) can be dam-aged; they’re only held in place by little ligaments.”Now, about those hooks. Don’t damage the fish by trying to unhook a fish that’s deeply hooked. The fish has a much better chance of surviving if you give up and cut the hook off. If the hook is in the fish’s mouth, a pair of nee-dle-nosed pliers or some-thing along those lines can help get the barbs out without doing any further damage.“If it won’t come out easily, cut the line off as close to the hook as pos-sible and let the fish swim off,” Dilsaver said. “I don’t mind cutting the hook. I don’t use stainless-steel hooks; I use either bronze or tinned hooks, because they will rust out quicker. A little treble hook will be gone in a week; a big hook might take a little longer “And a fish will some-times run a hook through its system. I’ve actually caught big drum with a 7/0 hook in its belly and two feet of leader coming out of his (anus).”Finally, the hooks have been removed, the photos taken, and the fish is ready to go back in the water. Dilsaver has a specific way he completes the release: holding it by the tail, mak-ing sure he gets plenty of water running across the fish’s gills, creating dis-solved oxygen that will sustain the fish.“A lot of people will put a fish in the water and swish him back and forth, but I don’t do that – be-cause fish don’t have a re- verse gear. They always go forward,” he said. “If I’m in a kayak, I’ll paddle along, holding him to make sure I get water across his gills. I’ll go forward until the fish kicks a second time. Don’t just let go of his tail until he jerks a second time.“If I’m anchored, I’ll hold the fish and just pump its tail (side-to-side). You can see the gills moving a little bit when you do that. It takes a little longer, but they will come around.”Dilsaver said that a suc-cessful release will become more difficult as the water warms and summer ap-proaches and arrives.“You can revive a fish more easily in cooler water, because there’s more oxy-gen in the water,” he said. “In hot water, you don’t have as much oxygen to work with.” Handle those catch-and-release fish carefully 132 Interstate Drive Mocksville, NC 27028 (336) 753-8473 Hours: Mon. - Fri. 7:30 - 5:30 MockBerothTire.com 11 LOCATIONS TO SERVE YOU!

Doulin is headed to Averett University and Fro- elich is going to Wingate University. Headed to College B4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, April 18, 2024 Continued From Page B1first pitch for a double and scored from second when the shortstop couldn’t han-dle a throw on a pickoff play. That tied things at 2. James (3 for 4) account-ed for all but one of Da-vie’s hits. It was his fourth straight multi-hit game and it was his second homer (no one else has gone deep for Davie). Braeden Rodgers started on the mound and worked two effective innings before giving way to Cooper Bliss, who struck out six in 4.2 solid innings. “We were just trying to get Braeden going for Fri-day since he hadn’t pitched (in nine days),” Anderson said. “We just wanted to get him a couple innings to get him ready. Cooper threw well.”Hickory Ridge (9-6) pulled it out in the last in-ning. A walk and sac bunt put the runner in scoring position, and he scored on a two-out hit. The hard-fought battle featured one of the fin-est catches of the year by outfielder Craig McBride, who kept the score 2-2 in the fifth. “McBride made an un-believable catch,” Anderson said. “They would have Sweeps ... scored there. He made a div-ing catch in the right-center field gap. It was an amazing catch (with a runner on first). They made a couple of plays, too, to keep us at bay.”Davie’s fourth hit came from Kason Stewart (1-2, walk). The Bulls were held to five hits. Davie 9, East 1Senior pitcher Connor Berg is having a season to remember. At home against East Forsyth on April 9, he carved up batters and hand-cuffed ‘em and jammed ‘em and mowed ‘em down by throwing 59 of 85 pitches for strikes. In six innings, Berg (4-2) gave up just four hits, walked none and lowered his ERA to 1.83. “Connor threw a great game,” Anderson said. “His offspeed was working real well. He controlled them with the fastball and kept them offbalance. We made some errors, but Connor stayed calm. When he gets ahead of guys, he’s going to be alright.”The defense kept Davie close until the bats warmed up. In the first, shortstop James threw home to Krause for an out. East scored on a two-out hit in the second, but Krause took a throw from center fielder Bliss and immediately fired to James to cut down a runner for the third out. Davie was economical with six hits, and it took full advantage of nine walks from multiple East arms. A four-run third was ig-nited by consecutive hits by James, Krause and Potts. Coston Colamarino, Krause and Carson Queen provided knocks in a three-run fourth. Meanwhile, Berg retired the side in order in the third, fourth and sixth. “We played well,” An-derson said. “We kept putting pressure on, they walked a couple guys and then we got some big hits.”Krause went 2 for 3 with a double. Davie got 1-3 efforts from Potts, Queen and Colamarino, and James went 1-2 with two walks. “I changed the batting order just to mix things up,” Anderson said. “I hoped it was gonna work and it did. I moved everybody except Coy (who bats leadoff) and Hunter (who bats third). I was trying to get some guys going. Drew got a couple big hits. I figured Drew (who moved up to second) would be the best one to protect Coy, and he had a great night.”Notes: This was East’s first CPC loss after an 8-0 start. ... Last year Davie went 3-1 against East, in-cluding a second-round playoff win in Kernersville. ... Parker Davis worked a scoreless seventh in his seventh relief outing. ... At the end of this one, Krause and Potts were hitting .357 and .342, respectively. Davie 5, East 1Three nights later, the War Eagles remained a thorn in East’s side and James was busy as always with a single, double, walk and two runs in three at-bats. The junior is absolutely destroying the ball. After going 0 for 6 in the first two games, he’s hit safely in 13 of 14 games. In the last six games, he’s 12 for 18. For the season, he’s 23 for 46 for a .500 average, which would be the program record. “I don’t want to say anything (about the .500 average and jinx him),” An-derson said. “I want to keep him hot. It’s hard sometimes to get people to pitch to him. He can change a game with one swing, and everybody knows that. “When the ball comes off his bat, it’s different. I compare it to Xavier Isaac a couple of years ago (for East Forsyth). The ball would come off his bat about the same way. There’s a couple of guys that I played with at the college level. You can hear the ball come off the bat like that. When Coy makes contact, it’s different. Until you see it, you don’t really realize it.”Davie put East on its heels in the top of the first. James doubled and Krause reached on one of East’s four errors. With two outs, Queen came through with a two-run double as the junior mashed the first offering he saw. “It wasn’t even a strike,” Anderson said of James’ double. “He got out on his front foot. The kid threw him a curveball. Coy got way ahead of it and hit it hard down the third-base line. “That was a huge hit (by Queen) and a huge con-fidence-booster for him, especially since I had taken him out of the two-hole and put him in the five-hole. He stroked it deep down the left-field line, and that set the tone for the game.”East’s hole got a tad deeper in the fourth, when Logan Allen made his first varsity hit a memorable one. With McBride on second, he singled to make it 3-0. “Logan got brought up because he was swinging the bat really well on JV,” Anderson said. “He was kind of nervous the first couple of games, and tonight he finally relaxed enough to get a single.”Davie’s lead went from 3-1 to 5-1 in the sixth - more than enough support for Rodgers, who shook off a slow start and piled up nine Ks in five three-hit innings. After walking five in the first two frames, Rodgers found a groove and earned his third win. “He was painting the outside corner,” Anderson said. “He settled in and threw really well.”Davie thoroughly out-played the hosts, outhitting East 8-4 and making one error to East’s four. Bliss went 2-3 with a double. Contributing one hit were Potts (1-3), Stewart (1-4), Queen (1-4) and Allen (1-2). “It was good to see Coo-per get off the schneid,” Anderson said. “It was a really good team win.”Notes: As usual, Tucker Hobbs was money out of the bullpen. He faced seven bat-ters in two scoreless innings. His ERA is 0.75 in six relief appearances and one start. “He just keeps pounding the zone and allowing the defense to play,” Anderson said. “I think he’s gaining confidence every day.” ... Davie improved to 9-7 over-all, while East stumbled to 13-5. Blake Little is the new Mocksville Junior Legion baseball head coach. He will also assist the senior team. Little was an all-con-ference shortstop at Davie before playing one year on the college level (Bluefield State University). He has spent six years with the Mocksville program - five years as a player and last year as an assistant coach for the senior team.

It ended a three-game slide and earned its first win in 24 days by turning up the offensive volume several notches at East Forsyth. The third loss in a row came in a nonconference game at Hickory Ridge on April 8. The War Ea-gles watched a 4-0 lead in the top of the first quickly vanish, partly because they committed seven errors and also because three pitchers issued eight walks. Davie’s six hits came from Ayden Sanders (1-3), Nate Barr (1-2, walk), Colin Harrison (1-3), Tanner Stei-nour (1-2, walk) and Josh Fisher (1-3). Hayden Potts drew a pair of walks.

It was the first win for the War Eagles (1-3-1), who were playing their first game in 23 days. Ava Hale and Renna Margaret Welborn had two goals each, while Fuller Kate Holt had one. Even though Davie has a losing record, it has managed to outscore opponents 11-8. “I looked on maxpreps and the JV had not 9-0’d anybody going back to 2011-12,” coach Collin Ferebee said. “And it’s the first time the JV has had a positive goal differential since 2017.”• The Davie boys lacrosse team posted two blowout wins last week - 14-6 over visiting Mt.

Chamberlain scores 11 goals in LAX wins Behind the 1-2 punch of Kinnah Chamberlain and Grace Butler, the Davie girls lacrosse team emphatically ended a five-game losing streak at Southwest Guilford on April 8. “It was definitely a much-needed win,” coach Haley Hines said after the 13-7 decision. Chamberlain delivered six goals, while Butler pro-duced a three-goal, three-as-sist performance to lead the way. Chamberlain left the field with 50 goals in 12 games, putting her in the top 44 in the state in that category and in the top 12 in the 4-A West. “She’s pretty much our leader when it comes to scoring goals and playing attack,” Hines said. “Out of her 50 goals, she’s had 69 to-tal shots, so she has a pretty good record of making what she shoots.“Grace, especially on the attacking end, was some of the best play that we’ve had. Kinnah and Grace played very well together. We have a play that we run and both of them ran it. Kinnah set the pick for Grace and Grace ended up scoring off of it.”Jenna Scully had two goals, while Zoey Cleary and Lilli Seats had one each. Davie 21, Tabor 4 At home on April 9, the War Eagles stopped a three-game losing streak in the CPC by blasting through Mt. Tabor. “It was a great game,” Hines said. “We controlled the pace of the game and at-tack and the defense moved extremely well.”Chamberlain was at it again with five goals. Seats (3), Butler (3), Cleary (3), Kayden Richardson (2) and Scully (2) had mul-tiple goals. Lila Moore, Reese Tutterow and Kimber Holston rounded out the scoring. The assist leaders were Butler (5) and Cleary (3). And then there was Dani-ka Williams and the defense. “Danika had some really great saves,” Hines said. “The defense was like a brick wall and the offensive movement was solid. I’m very proud of the full effort we put forth.”West 14, Davie 4Three days later in Clem-mons, though, the War Ea-gles stood no chance against a 13-1 West Forsyth squad. The consolation for Davie: It was much closer than the March 12 meeting (22-3). The loss dropped Davie to 5-9 overall and 3-7 in the CPC. two hits and three RBIs in the third alone. For good measure, the War Eagles put up a six-spot in the fifth. Bubby Byington and Harrison had singles and East helped Davie (4-6) with four errors. Williams finished 2 for 3 with a double. “We’ve seen potential, especially at the plate,” varsity coach Joey Anderson said of the sophomore. “For the most part, he’s always swung the bat, as long as he doesn’t get under it and try to drive it out. He’s been working really hard in prac-tice, and with (Josh) Fisher going down with possibly a season-ending arm injury, Ryan got his chance and he took advantage of it.”Harrison also had two hits, going 2-4 with two runs and two RBIs. “He changed his swing,” Anderson said. “He was very long and he was cast-ing his hands quite a bit. He’s another one who’s been working really hard in practice.”Potts (1-3, walk), Blake French (1-4, two runs) and Byington (1-4, two runs, two RBIs) had one hit each. “Hayden’s going to be a steady guy for years to come,” Anderson said. “I mean, you’re going to hear that name quite a bit. He’s very scrappy. “Most of the time Bub-by’s going to put something in play, and with his kind of speed, that’s all he has to do.”Nick Cannon got the win in his first high school start on the mound. Although he walked five, he held East to two hits over four innings and he struck out five. “For his first start, he threw halfway decent,” An-derson said. “It was good to see him break in and do well.” and Nolan Allen had two hits apiece, and shortstop Easton Stanley was the de-fensive player of the game. “Noah had a lively fast-ball and more command of his pitches,” coach Trevor Gooch said.

Hernandez, Jack Old-ham, Anderson Branham and Jael Granadero also scored for South. Ben Sheek had an assist for the Tigers. In the girls game, North rolled past South 4-1.
