Initial-ly launched as a boutique with vendor pop-ups, the company pivoted to organizing events after COVID-19 forced many retail shops to close.“When we realized so many vendors had nowhere to go, we started working with oth-er small businesses to provide places for others. Now, Sunny Day Markets specializes in creating dynamic trade shows and street festivals with towns such as the Town of Mocksville to create events for small busi-nesses to showcase and sell their products and also provide a fun event for the communi-ty,” said Noel, co-owner of the traveling small business pop-up shop based out of Union County.“Brandon and I were both born and raised in Mocks-ville, and we thought, why not return to our hometown? When the town was so willing to have us host, we knew we had made the right decision to come back to our hometown for an event. We are very excited to see this event suc-ceed and hope to continue our partnership with the town and turn it into an annual show the community can always look forward to. We thank you all for having us with open arms. Everyone has been so accept-ing, and we look forward to June 1.” For more details and up-dates, follow the Town of Mocksville and Sunny Day Market on social media.

She’s been selling her baked goods for a couple of years at the Cobblestone Farmer’s Mar-ket in Winston-Salem, and at monthly dinners. “My grandmother baked a lot, and I was attached to her hip,” she said on her opening day of business. She remem-bers her grandmother baking pies, and she would sneak into the kitchen when her grand-mother wasn’t looking just to get a few bites off the crust. When she was in middle school, she began watching The Food Network, and was hooked. A brief stint at culi-nary school and jobs at sev-eral restaurants in Charlotte later, and she’s in Mocksville.

Tell uswhat you think The Literary Corner Renegade Writer’s Guild Travels to South DakotaBy Linda H. BarnetteJohn and I loved to travel, and in the years before his health declined, we visited many places. We always traveled by car and enjoyed seeing many things that we would not have seen had we flown.One of our favorites was a trip to South Dakota in the summer of 1995. We were amazed to see bison up close in Custer State Park. The donkeys there were also interesting, and the prairie dogs were highly entertaining. When we were there, the traffic was not bumper to bumper as it probably is today, so we could take our time. We did not have a cell phone to take good pictures, but our camera was pretty good. Thankfully, I took pictures of all the places we went.Another favorite spot was Mt. Rushmore, where we looked through the big telescope to see the pres-idents up close. It was definitely awe-inspiring, and since that time I have watched “North by North-west” numerous times to see Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint escaping the bad guys on the mountain itself. The sculpture itself is 60 feet tall and carved in granite. It was sculpted by Gutzon Borglum and his son Lincoln during the years 1922-1941. The faces on the mountain are those of George Wash-ington, Thomas Jefferson, Teddy Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln.Deadwood was another interesting place not too far from Rapid City. It was very remote, so we could understand why the outlaws in the old West hid out there. We did find a nice restaurant and a casino, but if you used imagination, you would see cowboys with guns roaming the streets.One of the most fun things we did was to pan By Mike WaldenNCSU Although the pace at which prices are rising has mod-erated, prices are still going up. In 2021, average consum-er prices surged 7%, in 2022 they jumped 6.5%, in 2023 prices went up a more tolerable 3.4%, and the latest read-ing for 2024 shows consumer prices are up 3.5% from the same period in 2023. Cumulatively this puts prices up over 20% since 2021.As long as consumers’ financial resources increase at the same or a higher rate than price inflation, then there’s no loss of purchasing power. But most people know this hasn’t happened. Indeed, from 2021 to now, the average consumer’s purchasing power is off by 5%.I mention these statistics to show that inflation is still a problem, which is something most people know. The next question is, why is inflation still a continuing issue?When inflation began its spurt in 2021 there was an easy reason — consumers were trying to buy more than sellers had to offer. Consumers were flush with cash as a result of the COVID relief programs enacted in 2020 and 2021. The programs culminated in $6.5 trillion being rapidly pushed into the economy. Initially there were few buying opportunities as large parts of the economy had not yet reopened. When consumers were able to buy, they had what econ-omists call ‘pent-up demand’ — meaning they wanted to buy a lot. Typically this wouldn’t have been a problem, but there was another issue that had emerged, supply-chain problems. So, in short, consumers wanted to really buy, but many of the shelves were bare. In this situation, it was inevitable prices would rise substantially, which they did.But today, consumers have spent most of the COVID money, and the supply-chain has mostly been fixed. Yet inflation is running hotter than the 1.8% in 2019, before the pandemic. With inflation now at a rate of 3.5%, the question is why isn’t it closer to its pre-COVID level?There are a couple of potential reasons. One is strong economic growth. The economy in 2023 was as strong as it was in 2019, before the pandemic. Economic growth rates in the periods were virtually the same. Job growth has also been solid, with salaries from new jobs giving consumers more spending power. Even some sectors that were slowing have come back. Manufacturing is a good example. For almost a year manufacturing activity was declining. But in the last two months, the manufacturing sector has revived.The point is that, even with the supply chain fixed, more consumer spending can put a limit on how much inflation can be curtained. And we continue to see solid gains in consumer spending. There are some economists who argue the Feder-al Reserve didn’t raise interest rates enough to provide the necessary cooling in consumer spending that would have moderated inflation faster. Of course, the Fed has to balance aggressive interest rate hikes to combat infla-tion against the possibility such actions may result in a recession.The last reason I’ll discuss is whether businesses are purposely keeping prices high to boost profits - greedfla-tion. Before addressing the question, let me step back and talk about a business’s ability to set prices. I learned about prices in academia, but I also had hands-on training at a retail furniture store where I worked for seven years. Any business wants to maximize its profits, which is the dif-ference between revenues and costs. You would think an obvious way to increase profits is to simply increase the price of what the business sells. For a furniture store, this would mean increasing the prices of sofas, chairs, dining room tables, beds, etc. If there was no change in what the furniture retailer paid for the products, then increasing the price of items for sale would boost profits.But there’s a problem with this logic. If furniture retail- er A increases its prices, but furniture retailer B doesn’t, then what’s to prevent people who were ready to buy from A to instead buy from B? Losing customers reduces sales and lowers profits.Business owners know this. The furniture company I worked at would sell from their inventory, because cus-tomers generally wanted their furniture soon. Worse than selling at a low price and making a low profit was to not sell and make no profit. This is why my boss would often send me to rival stores to check their prices; remember, this was 50 years ago before computers and websites. It’s the realization that customers have options that ultimately keeps prices under control.Of course, if the furniture retailer finds it has to pay more to the manufacturers of the furniture it sells, then the retailer will likely increase its prices. This happened during the supply-chain problems caused by COVID. But as prices for many inputs have come down — although not all the way to pre-Covid levels — retail prices have followed. Hence, to claim that uncontrolled greed is causing re-tailers to continually push up prices goes against the re-ality of how prices are set in competitive markets, which dominate our economy.A way to directly investigate if “greed inflation” is at work is to look at profit rates. The profit rate is simply the percentage of a company’s revenues that are profit. Today’s profit rates are in line with their historic average of the last 40 years. Profit rates are near 4%. Interesting-ly, profit rates were higher during the previous 40 years, between 1940-1980. The reason is likely the increase in international trade, which has brought more competition.There are several reasons why prices are still higher than we would like. But is “greedflation” one of them? You decide.Mike Walden is a William Neal Reynolds Distinguished Professor Emeritus at North Carolina State University. for gold. Gold was discovered in the Black Hills and also in Deadwood during General Custer’s expedition there in 1874, and a gold rush followed although it did not last as long as the one in Cali-fornia. Panning was great fun even though we did not find any gold. John bought me a bracelet made out of Black Hills gold, which remains a treasure personally, though not worth anything. LaughterBy: E. BishopThe English poet Lord Byron once said: “Al-ways laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine”. The old adage “laughter is the best medicine” must be true. Duke Health and the Mayo Clinic believe it is. Not only is it good in the short term, but will carry over into long term health benefits as well. There are many reasons you should laugh every day.Laughter is good for your immune system, decreases stress, releases endorphins (the feel-good chemicals), protects the heart, reduces blood pres-sure, diffuses anger and conflict faster, may even help you burn calories and live longer. Who doesn’t want to add joy to their life with less anxiety and an improved mood? Laughter brings people together and will help strengthen relationships. Laugh so hard that you cry - it’s ok! Listen to a child’s giggle. Know of someone with an infectious laugh - they will make you laugh just listening to them laugh. Have you ever inhaled from a helium filled balloon and tried to talk - try it; it’s fun. I remember at my retirement party, my friend Jessica and I did this - hilarious!So when I heard of a southern comedy legend’s passing, I was at first sad but then I remembered the times I have seen his shows and what joy he brought to me and others. Just days after his 78th birthday, James Gregory died (5/6/1946 - 5/9/2024). Although he never used the term in his shows, he was often considered a “southern” comedian with a “down home, common sense” type of humor. He started out as a radio icon on syndicated programs including John Boy & Billy and with the Nashville Network. Since the 80’s, he was called “the Fun- niest Man in America.” From Alabama, he was a great storyteller reflecting on life on the front porch of America. If you enjoy humor, without foul language, look up some of his shows on You Tube to get you started - “This Conversation Happens at Every Funeral,” “Baptist know how to Die with Dignity”. It is true, we respond with every tragedy in life with food - “a covered dish.” Check for his biography in November “A Bushel of Beans and a Peck of Tomatoes: The Life & times of “The Funni-est Man in America.” Some other comedians that don’t rely on too much nasty language to be funny include Nate Bargatze, Jim Gaffigan and a North Carolina native Cliff Cash. Saw Mr. Cash lives in Wilmington, graduated from UNC-Asheville and is also a pho-tographer with a goal of visiting and documenting all US National Parks while on tour as a comic. It was stated, his comedy is inspired by George Carlin, often satiric and politically pointed, also somewhat southern in nature. He’s trying to “stop making southerners look stupid, at least 20% of us are not.” Look out for his comedy routine on Netflix in the future.Find your inner child to bring more laughter into your life. It can be contagious. Mount Rushmore and grazing buffalo in Custer State Park were among the highlights of a visit to South Dakota. Is ‘greedflation’ the cause of continued higher prices?

Manor for the Da-vie Community Foundation Red Carpet Reception. It was first hosted in 2021 to provide scholars with the opportunity to be recognized for their selec-tion as a scholarship recip-ient and the chance to meet the donors of the scholar-ship they received. The red carpet was rolled out in the middle of the room and ev-eryone gathered around for the main event - to clap and cheer as the students strut-ted down the carpet.The night kicked off with Foundation Vice Chair Mike Morton welcoming everyone, followed by past Chair Jennifer Hanes an-nouncing the names of the students and the scholar-ship they received. As a career coach of Da-vie County High School, she knew many of the stu-dents and was able to add personal notes as they made their way down the carpet. Hors d'oeuvres were made by the Davie Coun-ty High School Culinary Arts and Hospitality Pro-gram students and paid for by ADK Beta Mu Chapter. Five members of the Pearls of Empowerment handed The economic growth in Davie over the past decade is nothing short of amazing. However, affordable housing for the working class remains a challenge. With your help, I hope to fill that gap! I truly love older homes and would love to: • Restore vacant homes to former beauty • Place permanent memorial to honor family homeplaces • Improve homes and neighborhoods • Maintain the integrity of our rural communities and farmland • Reduce the need for new multi-family construction • Provide affordable housing that people can be proud to live in • Provide jobs for local construction small business • Provide attractive, affordable housing With all the vacant homes in Davie County, we should be able to do this. Together, we can have a positive and meaningful impact in the community. We can change lives! If you know someone (perhaps even you!) that owns a vacant home and would be willing to just chat ~ PLEASE get in touch with me. I would be so grateful. Davie CountyA great place to work and live!

After the final student walked the carpet, Senior Program Officer Melissa O’Connor thanked every-one for attending, provided information for the par-ents about the scholarship checks and requested that the students gather for a group photo. The students positioned themselves along the staircase and their parents flocked to the front to snap a picture to remem-ber the special occasion. The night concluded with the scholars mingling and enjoying cake and con-versation with their donors and families. So far, Davie Communi-ty Foundation has awarded $282,717.25 in scholar-ships to 98 high school and college students. A new scholarship fund, the John and Faye Long Scholarship was added to invest in students attending NC State University for en-gineering. Mr. Long attend-ed NC State as did some of his and Faye’s children and grandchildren. The Longs loved the idea of investing in students who would at-tend their alma mater. Many donors started their scholarships in hon-or of a family member or friend and the night gave them the opportunity to share memories with the recipient.

She had brought her pets to a vet in Mocksville, and was riding on North Main Street when she saw the “for lease” sign on the little building at Spring Street. She had dreamed of opening a bakery in a former general store, and this one had character.Thanks to a grant from Heinz to support minority food businesses, she signed the lease and ordered equipment.“This building has a lot of character (She’s learned history from neighbors who stop by.),” Dee said. “It brought back a memo-ry of me and my grandpa and the roadside stores he liked. It made me tear up a bit.“Neighbors have welcomed me here with open arms. I was craving that community aspect, and I’ve found it here with small-town vibes.” She knows the risks. Start up bakeries aren’t the easiest business to make a living.“I really feel like this is the right place at the right time. It’s everything I ever wanted it to be. It’s my wildest dream come true, to feed people good food.”That food includes all kinds of pies and cookies, scones and everything in between. Her most popular item is the chocolate chess pie. She also loves using edible flowers on her creations. “Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because it’s a time for a lot of pie.”In other words, if you want a pie for Thanksgiv-ing, put your order in early.Elderflour, which also offers coffee and teas, will be open Wednesdays-Fri-days from 8 a.m.-3 p.m. and on Saturdays from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. There is indoor and outdoor seating.“Elderflour started as a small-batch bakery and I want to keep it small batch. Everything here is made by my own hands.”Although she spent time in culinary school and at other restaurants, Dee considers herself to be a mostly self-taught baker.It was that time in school when she had a roommate who made a pun of everything food related.“Elderflower is my favorite flower,” Dee said. “I used ‘flour’ as an ode to her.” And to the baking. “I love flowers. You can’t see a bouquet of flowers and be in a bad mood.”Dee prefers apple pie, Funfetti cake and crois-sants when eating desserts, but really favors the savory side dishes.“I don’t eat a lot of desserts,” she said. “But I like making them; and I will never work a job I don’t enjoy.”The bakery faces North Main Street at Spring Street in Mocksville. Dee Burcham helps customers pick out just the right treat. Regina “Dee” Burcham and her staff - Alex Wood and Eliott Foster - at Elderflour Bakery in Mocksville. - Photos by Mike BarnhardtBakery ...

King penned this novelty song in the late 1920s, the scream- ing they referenced was a cheer among students at a fictional college in a “land of ice and snow, up among the Eskimo.” For anyone who has gobbled up an ice cream treat a little too quickly, those screams very well may speak to the sharp headache that often comes from consuming frozen foods too quickly. Identifying ‘brain freeze/ice cream headache’ Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center neurosci- entist Dwayne Goodwin, Ph.D., explained in a 2013 news release that the sud- den, short headache that oc- curs when eating or drink- ing something very cold, which most people refer to as “brain freeze,” is actu- ally called sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia. There are several theories why brain freeze occurs. One theory suggests that when a per- son eats or drinks a large quantity of very cold food or liquid, the temperature of his or her palate decreases considerably. The blood ves- sels in this area automati- cally constrict to maintain the body’s core temperature before reopening quickly. This causes a rebound dila- tion that sends a pain signal to the brain through the trigeminal nerve, which is located in the middle of the face and forehead. Although the constriction and dila- tion of blood vessels occurs in the palate, the pain is felt elsewhere, a phenomenon known as “referred pain.” Alleviating the shock Now that people under- stand the starting point for brain freeze, and what causes it, they might want to make a few changes to how they consume cold foods and beverages. Eric Fredette, a long-time “Flavor Guru” for Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream, says one way to stop brain freeze is to stir up the ice cream to warm it slightly. Dr. Stephani Vertrees, a headache specialist and clinical assistant profes- sor at Texas A&M College of Medicine, advises eat- ing cold food much more slowly so that your mouth can warm it up as well. An- other tip is to keep the food or beverage in the front of your mouth. Cold foods in the back of the mouth will stimulate brain freeze. When consuming ice cream by spoon, Fredette further suggests flipping the spoon upside down so that the ice cream hits the tongue rather than the up - per palate when spooned into the mouth. Frosty treats do not have to cause painful headaches that have people screaming for the wrong reasons. A few tips can prevent brain freeze from happening. Metro Creative Connection M any people are familiar with certain ways to reduce their risk for can- cer. Avoiding tobacco, which the National Cancer Institute notes is a leading cause of cancer and death from cancer, and protect- ing oneself from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays by applying sunscreen are two of the most widely known ways to reduce can- cer risk. But fewer people may recognize the impor- tant role diet can play in fighting cancer. According to the Acad- emy of Nutrition and Dietet- ics, a nutritious diet can re- duce your cancer risk. That makes eating right one of the easiest, not to mention the most delicious, ways to reduce your risk for a dis- ease that is often prevent- able. But how exactly does diet lower cancer risk? Healthy diets and healthy weights The American Cancer Society estimates that ex- cess body weight is respon- sible for about 8 percent of all cancers and roughly 7 percent of all cancer deaths in the United States. A healthy diet full of fruits, vegetables and lean protein can help people lose weight and keep the weight off once it’s gone, thereby re- ducing cancer risk. Healthy diets and exercise Unhealthy foods and oversized portions can contribute to feelings of fatigue. Such feelings can make it hard to get off the couch and exercise. While the ACS acknowledges that more studies are necessary to determine the link be- tween sedentary behavior and cancer risk, various studies have shown links between physical activity and reduced cancer risk. For example, a 2016 meta- analysis of 10 cohort studies published in the Clinical Journal of Sports Medicine found that individuals who were the most physically active had a 19 percent low- er risk of stomach cancer than those who were least active. By eating healthier foods and controlling their portions, people may dis- cover they have more en- ergy to get up and exercise, reaping all the rewards that such activity has to offer, including a lower risk for cancer. Healthy diets and strong immune systems Another way certain foods can help you fight cancer is by bolstering your immune system, making it more capable of fighting disease. The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, a world renowned medical center devoted ex- clusively to cancer patient care, notes that the fiber, phytochemicals and anti- oxidants humans get from consuming plants bolster their immune systems. A strong immune system is a vital ally in the fight against cancer. The old adage “You are what you eat” is rooted in truth. And people who eat healthy foods are more like- ly to be healthy as a result. Metro Creative Connection R ich, creamy and deca- dent, cheesecake is enjoyed across the globe. There are many famous cheesecake bakeries in North America, and those who can’t resist digging their forks into this beloved dessert may as- sume that cheesecake traces its origins there. In fact, cheesecake traces its origins to the ancient Greeks. The first “cheesecake” is be- lieved to have been created from a ricotta-type cheese base on the Greek island of Samos. Excavated cheese molds were found there that dated to around 2,000 B.C. Cheesecake was considered a good source of energy and there is evidence that even Olympic athletes were fed cheesecake during the first games. Greek brides and grooms also were known to rely on cheesecake as their cake of choice for weddings. Original cheesecakes were made from flour, wheat, honey, and cheese, then formed and baked, according to Cheesecake.com. After the Roman conquest of Greece, cheesecake was adopted by the Romans. Their name for this type of cake was “placenta” and it was baked on a pastry base or sometimes inside of a pastry case, advises What’s Cooking America. Cheesecakes also were called “libum” by the Romans, and were used as an offering at the gods’ temples. Cheesecakes also were introduced to other areas of Europe thanks to con- quering Roman armies. By 1,000 A.D., cheesecake could be found throughout northwestern Eu- rope, England and Scandinavia. Through the years, cheese- cake’s popularity spread else- where. However, New Yorkers say that cheesecake was not re- ally cheesecake until it got an Empire State makeover in the 1900s. Many New York restau- rants have their own versions of cheesecake, with Turf Res- taurant laying claim to the first cream cheese-based cheesecake recipe in 1929. New York dairy man William Lawrence acci- dentally invented cream cheese in 1872 while trying to recreate a soft, French cheese known as Neufchâtel. Little did Lawrence know that this mistake would inadvertently revolutionize cheesecake recipes. Cheesecake technically is a pie and not a cake, and there are versions that are baked and oth- ers that firm up in the refrigerator without having to cook a custard base. Many cheesecake afficiona - dos have a favorite cheesecake recipe. However, this classic and iconic New York cheesecake, courtesy of Philadelphia Cream Cheese brand, is an ideal one to make your own. New York Cheesecake • 11⁄4 cups graham crumbs • 1⁄4 cup butter, melted • 5 packages (250g each) Philadelphia Brick Cream Cheese, softened • 1 cup sugar • 3 tablespoons flour • 1 tablespoon vanilla • 1 cup sour cream • 4 eggs • 1 can (19 fl. oz) cherry pie filling Preheat oven to 325 degrees if using a silver 9-inch springform pan (or to 300 degrees if using a dark nonstick 9-inch springform pan). Mix crumbs and butter; press firmly onto bottom of pan. Bake 10 minutes. Beat cream cheese, sugar, flour, and vanilla in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add sour cream; mix well. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition just until blended. Pour over crust. Bake for 1 hour and10 minutes, or until center is almost set. Run a knife or metal spatula around the rim of the pan to loosen cake; cool before removing the rim of the pan. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. Top with pie fill- ing before serving. Store leftover cheesecake in the refrigerator. Metro Creative Connection A thick cut of meat grilled over an open flame can make for a mouth watering meal. While such an endeavor likely won’t lead to any complaints around the dinner table, many people still shy away from grilling especially thick cuts of meat. A thick cut of uncooked meat can intimidate even the most devoted grilling enthusiast. Such cuts tend to take a long time to cook, and many a grilling devotee has put in that time only to end up with a dried out piece of meat. So what do? The fol- lowing are some ways to master the art of grilling thick cuts of meat. • Reverse sear the steak. According to Omaha Steaks, reverse searing involves bringing the steak up to temperature via indirect heat first, then sear- ing the outside second. Reverse searing ensures the outside of the steak does not become charred while the inside takes its time cooking. This requires using both direct and indirect heat. When using a gas grill with multiple burners, it’s easy to create direct and indirect heating zones by only turning one set of burners on. When using a charcoal grill, move the hot coals to one side of the grill and leave the other side empty. Omaha Steaks recommends maintaining a grill temperature between 250 and 300 F and placing the meat over indirect heat first, keeping the steak there until a digital thermometer reads roughly 10 to 15 degrees below the desired temperature of the meat. The steak can then be moved over direct heat so all sides can be seared. • Salt the meat overnight. People hesitant to salt their meat out of fear of overconsumption of sodi- um should know that it’s not necessary to use a lot of salt to create a flavorful piece of meat. A sprin- kling of kosher salt over the surface of the meat is all that’s necessary. Once the meat has been salted, store it in the refrigerator, uncovered, overnight, which allows ample time for the cut to fully absorb the salt, ultimately contributing to a juicy cut of meat. • Be patient. Once the meat has been taken off the grill, let it sit for awhile before slicing into it. The goal is to allow the juice inside the meat to re- distribute so each bite is as mouth watering as pos- sible. This is the same principle that leads Thanks- giving cooks to let turkeys sit for awhile when they first come out of the oven. While turkeys may re- quire roughly 30 minutes of sitting, meat typically only needs between 10 and 20 minutes, with thick cuts requiring more time than thin cuts. Grilling afficionados need not be intimidated by thick cuts of meat. A few tricks of the trade can make it easy to serve up a thick piece of meat where each bite is juicy and full of flavor.

What happened? It was two stalwarts going at it, and Williams had to settle for runner-up not because he cooled off, but because Weddington senior Christopher Stewart had a remarkable throw. Williams’ best throw was 58-10.5; Stewart went 60 feet. Both would meet again in the state meet as the top four finishers in each event advanced. The regional, which featured 47 schools, was hosted by Davie on May 11. “There is a kid from Wedding-ton who is real strong who beat (Williams) by 11 inches,” coach Rob Raisbeck said. “So that is Cooper’s first loss on the year.”Williams was fifth in the discus, barely missing state qualification, but he couldn’t be disappointed with a personal-best 166-8. “Cooper was in fourth place Williams, Sweet qualify for state track meet going into the last throw, and one of the guys had a big personal re-cord (to knock him down to fifth,” Raisbeck said. “He’s not as strong in the discus, but he still threw a personal record. To give you an in-dication of how strong our region is, Cooper has the sixth-best discus throw in the state in 4-A, and four of the five ahead of him are from our region. We refer to it as The Region of Death.”Davie produced another state qualifier in AJ Sweet. The sopho-more had been struggling mightily - by his lofty standards - in recent weeks in the pole vault, but he re-bounded in a major way, finishing fourth with a season-best 14-1. This marked his second state berth, following last year’s fourth-place finish at 13-6. “AJ had, quite frankly, been struggling with his approach, so we were not sure what we were going to get out of him,” Raisbeck said. “But he came through by clearing 14 feet.”There were several positive performances from Davie’s nine regional competitors. • Sweet went a personal-record 15.59 in the 110 hurdles. “AJ was the last qualifier (with the 16th-best time),” Raisbeck said. “We did not expect him to make the finals and he did not, but it was a pretty remarkable accomplishment just for him to get into the (110 hurdles) field as a sophomore.”• Senior Sophia Brady was sixth in the discus with a person-al-record 111-1. “She was the No. 6 seed coming in, but there was a big gap after the top four,” Rais-beck said. • The 3200 relay team finished sixth at 8:22. The foursome was juniors Tyler Hill and Thomas Es-sic and sophomores Ethan Lakey and Brayden Kistner. “They ran well,” Raisbeck said. “We came in as the 11th or 12th seed. We were hoping to break the school record in that race, and we were off by three seconds. But we will destroy that record next year. Tyler had been hurt a lot. He was sick in the By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The Davie soccer team’s first playoff game in eight years was the ultimate battle of Good vs. Evil. Davie’s record from 2019 through the 2024 regular season was 25-39-9 overall and 10-24-2 in the Central Piedmont Conference. West Forsyth’s record during the same span was 73-14-3 overall, 48-2 in the CPC. The Titans were 63-1-2 all time vs. Davie, including 3-1 and 5-0 wins in the regular season. For Davie, an upset over the annual powerhouse looked like a long shot. As it turned out, though, Davie had a legitimate shot at a shock-the-world moment. West dodged a bullet, scored in the final 20 seconds on a controversial goal and escaped 2-1 in Clemmons on May 13. The No. 3-seeded Titans improved to 16-3-1, while No. 30 Davie closed at 7-9-2. “We worked so hard to get here,” coach Corbin Kopetzky said. “They believed in themselves when nobody else did. People did not expect us to be anything this year. We made the playoffs and that is more than I can ask out of them.”After managing just one goal in 160 regular-season minutes against West, the War Eagles found an answer in the first half, when star sophomore Lanna Robinson knocked in a breathtaking goal. It was Robinson’s 14th goal, the most since Claire Devereaux had 14 in 2015. “We dropped (Robinson) back to center mid,” Kopetzky said. “I said: ‘We’re not just here to say we made it.’ And she played a heck of a game. That might be the best game I’ve seen her play in two years. She stole the ball at midfield and sprinted down. They cut down the baseline but she put it in the back of the net. Our crowd went wild. It’s a feeling I’ve never felt before as a coach.”The West Forsyth ghosts were silent at halftime. Davie had a 1-0 lead in its first playoff game since 2016.

Although the War Eagles were hardly an offensive juggernaut this season, they scored three runs in the top of the first, two in the sec-ond and three in the third. Coach Joey Anderson was crossing his fingers for just one shutdown inning in the early going, but it wasn’t to be. The Chargers scored three in each of their first three at-bats, and they would outlast Davie 11-9. By Brian PittsEnterprise Record In the Davie softball team’s first-round playoff game, fresh-man pitcher Raney Phelps did everything she could, absolutely everything, to lift the War Eagles to the next round. She put up zeroes in the first four innings and retired the first two batters in the fifth. Unfortunately, Davie’s offense could not rise to the challenge, the defense made a critical two-out error and Davie suffered a 5-3 loss Soccer team gives West Forsyth a scare Please See Scare - Page B4 Please See Track - Page B4 Softball suffers tough loss in 1st round to visiting Cuthbertson on May 7. Here’s Phelps’ excellent work: Through 4.2 innings, she had a three-hit shutout while setting down 14 of 17 batters. Davie’s offense, though, did not come alive until it was down 4-0. “We were definitely im-pressed,” coach Nathan Handy said. “Raney pitched great. She stepped up big. It’s a playoff game and she had the best game that she’s had all season. She gave us a chance, and that’s all we could ask from her.”It was 0-0 with two outs and nobody on in the top of the fifth. Alas, the third batter of the inning reached when a popup was errored. Then disaster struck. The next two batters walked. A single and a double followed as the Cavaliers burst to the 4-0 lead. “It was not (Phelps’) fault,” Handy said. “She was hitting her spots and they just started hitting.”To the War Eagles’ credit, they fought back vigorously. In the bottom of the fifth, a Cuthbertson error was sandwiched by a Landry Please See Tough - Page B2 Baseball loses Round 2 slugfest “We just could not make a stop,” Anderson said. “It wasn’t the fact that Cooper (Bliss) pitched bad. We made mental errors that just killed us. We might’ve given up one run, but then we made that error or that mistake and it turned into three runs.”And then: “If we would’ve gotten a stop in any of those first three innings, we would have prob-ably won that game, especially after scoring three runs in the first inning. If we would have gotten a stop there, they would have been done. Their demeanor would have been a lot different.”Hunter Potts (4 for 4 with a walk) and Drew Krause (3-4, two RBIs, double) were shining stars as Davie jumped to leads of 3-0, 5-3 and 8-6. Davie got splendid stuff from Bliss (2-3, three RBIs, double, two walks) and Logan Allen (2-4). Coy James (1-5) and Coston Colamarino (1-4) helped Davie outhit Cox Mill 13-9. The War Eagles, though, com-mitted four errors and their pitch-ing was drained from the 12-inning marathon three nights earlier at Watauga. “We hit the ball probably bet-ter than we have all year, which was kind of a shock to all of us,” Anderson said. “When Coy was standing on second, one of their Please See Slugfest - Page B2 AJ Sweet was fourth in the region in the pole vault and fifth in the state.

Phelps had a productive out that plated a run. Jadyn Davis roped a run-scoring double. Davie struck out with the tying run at second, but it was back within 4-3. Cuthbertson got a run in the sixth and junior pitcher Georgia McConnell got the first two batters in the bot-tom of the seventh.It looked all but over. But Davie made two-out noise. After Phelps kept her team alive by reaching on an error, Davis singled on a two-strike pitch. Then Hanna Steinour walked on four pitches. The bases were loaded with Davie behind 5-3. A hit likely ties it and a gapper could win it. Davie struck out to end the game and the season. It was a tough way to go out. “It’s a tremendous amount of pressure for your season to be on the line with the bases loaded needing two runs,” Handy said. Davis (2-4) and Parsons (2-3) both had two hits as Davie matched Cuthbertson with seven hits. Croom (1-4), Steinour (1-3) and Ash-ley Bledsoe (1-3) had one each, but Davie hurt itself by stranding eight runners. Maybe Davie prevails if a Steinour drive goes anoth-er inch instead of falling for a double. “Hanna hit a double,” Handy said. “It hit the top of the fence and bounced up and came back in play instead of going out.”On the bright side, the War Eagles will be a force to be reckoned with in 2025. “We are still loaded,” he said after Davie finished 17-9, the same number of wins from 2023. “I think next year is going to be even better for us.”Four War Eagles put themselves among the all-time leaders. They did not have their dominant pitcher the last five games because of injury. Riley Potts pitched 2.1 innings in the last seven games, and Davie’s only wins without her were Continued From Page B1players said: ‘From ev-erything we’ve read, y’all can’t hit.’ Coy was like: ‘We’ve played some pretty good teams and we’ve faced good pitching throughout the year.’”In the fifth, Davie scratched out a run to tie the game at 9-9. With two outs and nobody on, Krause sin-gled on a two-strike pitch. After Potts singled, Bliss knotted the score by singling on an 0-2 offering. “They threw a lefty and the only other lefty we saw this year, we hit the snot out of it - and that was in a scrimmage game,” An-derson said. “Drew had a real good game. He was frustrated a little bit after Watauga. He didn’t swing Slugfest ... it the way he wanted to, so he stepped up pretty big and found some gaps.”But Davie hit a wall in the fourth, scoring just one run over the final four in-nings, and Cox Mill took the lead for keeps in the sixth. A couple of doubles and a sac fly lifted the Chargers in front 11-9. Potts kept Davie alive in the seventh, singling to cen-ter with two outs. But three pitches later, the curtain came down on the visitors. “We tried,” Anderson said after 22nd-seeded Da-vie gave No. 6 Cox Mill a scare. “We gave them a run.”Record Book• James has been so dynamic in his three-year career that it was hardly a surprise to see him do something legendary like becoming the first Davie player to ever hit .400-plus three times. He hit .409 as a freshman, .451 as a soph-omore and .413 as a junior. Corey Randall (2011-12), Andrew Daywalt (2001-02) and Whit Merrifield (2005-06) had two .400 seasons each. James’ 18 steals are the most in 13 years (Alex Newman had 19 in 2011). • What a force Potts be-came in his first varsity season. He hit a team-best .428. That ranks No. 16 overall and eighth among non-seniors. “Once I moved him to the three hole, he took owner-ship of being the hitter that I expected him to be for the last couple of years,” Ander- son said of the junior. “He stopped getting frustrated if he had a bad at-bat. He went through the mental preparation of that, and he would let that go. He grew up a lot this year; that was a big plus for us. Next year he will get more comfortable in the outfield position because he’s technically a catcher, but he filled that outfield role. He’s going to be very beneficial to us next year.”• You could always count on Davie’s senior pitch-ers. Connor Berg was bril-liant while putting up the finest ERA (1.62) in five years. (Carson Whisenhunt had an 0.98 ERA in 2019.) Braeden Rodgers had the most strikeouts (64) since Whisenhunt’s 96 in 2019. Those two will be hard to replace in 2025. “Our pitching staff is going to be inexperienced, so we’re gonna have to find one somewhere,” Anderson said. “Of the ones coming back, Tucker Hobbs and Parker Davis are about the only ones that saw quite a bit of time.”Notes: At Cox Mill, Bliss made just his third start on the mound. He went three innings after working 18 innings in the first 23 games. Although he was touched for nine runs, only four were earned. Hobbs went a season-long three innings in his eighth relief appearance. He gave up one earned run. ... At 13-11, it was Davie’s third winning season under third-year coach Anderson. ... The favored Chargers, who improved to 20-4, al-lowed the most runs in seven games. ... Cox Mill lost 5-0 to Charlotte Catholic in the third round. against Mt. Tabor (twice) and Glenn. Potts was ridiculous as a junior. She posted 14 wins to tie for third (Olivia Boger had 17 in 2017, Shannon Handy 15 in 2001 and Potts 14 in 2023). Potts has 28 ca-reer wins, 12 shy of Handy’s record. She holds the first two spots for single-season strikeouts (176 in 2024 and 155 in 2023). She’s the ca-reer leader in Ks with 356 (Handy had 341 and Boger 323). Her 1.50 ERA as a junior ranks seventh. She had a record 16 Ks in one game this year. Davis had 12 doubles to tie for second (Sadie Lagle had 13 in 2012 and Jordan Schultz 12 in 2007). She tied for sixth with 33 RBIs. Her .471 average tied for 11th. She became the 12th War Eagle to deliver multiple .400 seasons. She has 20 career doubles, 15 behind Lagle’s record. She had 4 triples; Davis and Sydney Dirks are the only War Ea-gles to collect 4-plus triples in two seasons. Croom, a junior, had 14 stolen bases to take 10th place on the list. Phelps had 17 walks/hit by pitches to tie for fifth, just one from the single-season record. Notes: The 16th-seeded War Eagles lost in the first round for the third year in a row. The No. 17 Cavaliers finished 12-12 after losing 7-3 to South Caldwell in the second round. ... All four runs against Phelps were unearned. Raelyn Lankford did well in relief, giving up one unearned run in 2.1 innings. ... Seniors Jaedyn Altiers, Gracie Garwood and Bledsoe suited up for Davie for the last time. ... Handy is appreciative of all the people around him. “It’s not possible without them,” he said of assistants Sierra Ferguson, Courtney Stanfield and Bridgett Tier-ney and the folks behind the scenes. “Will Marrs is our scoreboard operator and the voice of our softball team. I appreciate Melanie Ferguson for keeping our scorebook again this year.” Tough ... DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 30, 2024 ‑ B3 The N.C. Wildlife Re-sources Commission has voted to adopt a handful of new regulations for the 2024-25 hunting and fish-ing season.The commission shift-ed the blackpowder and gun seasons for deer in the Western Section. Under the new schedule, black pow-der season will begin two Saturdays before Thanks-giving and run until gun season, which will begin the Saturday after Thanks-giving and run through Jan. 1. The change will shift the week-long and one-day blackpowder antlerless seasons to begin the second Saturday of the season. In the Western Sec-tion, Youth Days will be designed as Thanksgiv-ing Day and the next day; youth under 18 can use any lawful weapon to harvest deer on those days.The commission ap-proved a proposal to cre-ate a Small Game Focal Area on the Wayne Bailey/Caswell Game Lands. The area would be a draw, per-mit-only area for quail and Davie American Little League Player Spotlights Liam Tuck of the coach pitch Hot Rods has sig- nificantly improved his skills since T-ball and is doing awesome on the field. His sweet friend- ship makes him a won- derful teammate and friend. Carson Cottom of the minor Braves proved his willingness to stay in the box and reach base any way possible, getting hit in the head twice. He stole three bases, including home with the tag knocking his helmet off as he got hit in the head for the third time. Hustle and determination defined Carson’s attitude for the game. Eric Campbell of the machine pitch Ironbirds went 2 for 2, a run scored and several great defensive plays in a tough loss to the River Bandits. Eric showed great effort and main- tained a positive attitude, even when faced with adversity. Kinsley Hines of the coach pitch Boss Babe’s had the game of her life, going 4 for 4 with two runs - while making outs all over the field on defense at multiple positions. She started on fire, the biggest reason is her work ethic. Kinsley strives on getting better at everything and is the perfect example of a great teammate.

He ran extremely well given his circumstances.”• Essic had a personal re-cord of 4:27.97 in the 1600, and Lakey ran a best-ever time of 4:29.01 in the 1600. “Thomas and Ethan quali-fied in the 1600, but quite frankly, they were toast after the 3200,” Raisbeck said. “They did not have a whole lot of rest (between races), and they did not have anything left at that point.”• Sophomores Alyssa Marion and America Stock-ton went 5-0 in the high jump, both personal bests. Notes: Davie was repre-sented in the NCAA Track & Field Regional. Spencer Williams of North Carolina competed in the shot put, and UNC Wilmington’s Bryson Robinson and JT Allen competed in the long jump and 110 hurdles, re-spectively. All three were teammates at Davie. “This is an amazing accomplish-ment,” Raisbeck said. ... In the state meet, Williams finished second in the shot put and Sweet was fifth in the pole vault. A story on the state will appear next week. Track ... Continued From Page B1at 49:30 qualified as another. (Yet another would come in the dying seconds.)“Off a corner kick, Au-brie (Pulaski) made a save on it,” Kopetzky said. “They got a weird deflection on that one and put it in the back of the net. It was a drib-ble; it did not go fast at all. We had shifted the defense and nobody was right there, and it rolled ever so slowly into the back of the net.”It was still 1-1 with un-der 20 seconds remaining. The Titans got a free kick and missed. But wait - the referee blew his whistle and allowed another free kick. Davie was furious. The bleeping second try pene-trated the goal. It left Davie with a nasty taste.“The ball has to stop rolling before you kick it,” Kopetzky said. “She kicked it, that is her time and (the ref) stopped the clock. It went wide left, but (the ref) let her re-kick it. It deflected, Aubrie made a good save. They hit it off the rebound to score. “They are hurt and that is justified. They did more than anybody ever gave them credit for. Those are my kids. I believe in them when everybody told me we would be down. I saw the offseason and all the work they did in practice. You know when you’ve got the right group of kids to make it successful, and right now that’s what we’ve got.”Defenders Lydia Postell, Skylar Link, Kim Torres and Jaden Sink did what they do - they played beautifully and gave Davie a chance before coming up just short. “I said: ‘Guys, we’re gonna try something differ-ent,’” Kopetzky said. “I put Lydia back there and she marked West’s best player for probably 60 minutes of the game. Kim shut it down. I am so proud of all of them.”The War Eagles went 1-6 in one-goal games. The mar-gin was razor thin between 7-9-2 and what could have been the first winning sea-son since 2008. The silver lining: Next year could yield Davie’s strongest team in many years. “We should have upset the No. 3 seed,” he said. “We are there, man. People may doubt us, but they bet-ter watch out (next year).”Notes: The War Eagles recorded the most wins in eight years. ...

Wrestling golf tourney Aug. 16 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Beck Owen’s second day in the state 4-A tournament at Pinehurst Country Club was kind of crummy. But there wasn’t anything the Davie senior could have done about that - the weather was awful. With heavy rain putting a damper on his first state tournament appearance, Owen withdrew after 15 holes. But on day one on May 13, he shot an 8-over 80 to tie for 70th out of 100 players.

He fin-ished 15-over for his 33 completed holes. “He withdrew because of the rain and delays,” coach Scott Spillman said. “(On day two) his tee time was at 8:51. He got two shots in before they blew the horn, and they didn’t restart until 11:15. They restarted in a heavy downpour and then steady rain/drizzle until they pulled them back off around 3:30. He had three holes to go and it didn’t look like they would get back out til around 6 p.m. at the earliest.” Beck’s greatest moment came in the rain on No. 13. “He flew the green with his second shot and was al-most embedded in the pine needles above a bunker with a downhill lie, like he was standing on the banks of Talladega,” Spillman said. “He had thought about taking an unplayable, but there was literally nowhere to go. He was able to get his next shot out and clear the bunker, leaving him a decent look at par.”Overall, Beck’s senior season was about everything he could have hoped for. He finished fifth in the Central Piedmont Conference, he helped Davie capture the league title for the first time in 27 years and he became just the third different War Eagle to qualify for the state in the last 10 years. “Beck worked hard on his game and deserved to be representing Davie in the states,” Spillman said. “He was really striking the ball well all tournament, even in the unfavorable conditions. His score was not a good indicator of how well he played. He just couldn’t get a feel of the greens and didn’t see many birdie putts go in.” Golfer Owen plays at Pinehurst Sophomore Alyssa Marion does the high jump.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 30, 2024 - B5 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The Ellis girls soccer team took coaches Mike Morgan and Dan Cagle and their fans on an unforgetta-ble ride in 2024. In the semifinals of the Tri-County Conference Tournament, the Jaguars knocked off unbeaten China Grove 2-1 while holding the upper hand all game. Another magical moment came in the championship game. Mooresville came in as the only team that had beaten Ellis all season. In the regular season, the Red Imps shaved Ellis 2-1 and the teams tied 0-0 in the second meeting. But in the final, the Jaguars followed the same script as the Chi-na Grove game - they led throughout in a 3-2 victory and capped a 13-1-1 season. In the first round of the tournament, Ellis smothered Erwin 5-0.“Most of (Mooresville’s) kids are club players,” said Cagle, the assistant coach. “They are very talented, but we had a special group of girls, a unique group, and we got a little better as the season went on. In the championship game, we were ready.”With the exception of the three games against Mooresville and the battle with China Grove, the Jag-uars absolutely mashed op-ponents. They got monster contributions from a seventh grader, Addalyn Steelman, who scored all three goals in the final and finished as the top scorer for the season. “Addalyn has extremely good touch on the ball, she’s very, very competitive, she’s very, very tough-minded, and she is coachable,” Cagle said. “Her competitiveness and her touch are her best attributes. She’s got a desire to score.”The team’s top three scorers included eighth grader Kate Chaffin and seventh grader Charlotte Watson. Chaffin is a beast on the tennis courts and she’s not so shabby on the soccer field. “Charlotte had a real good offensive year,” Cagle said. “Kate was an undefeat-ed tennis player (last fall). She’s very, very competitive and very, very athletic. She hasn’t played as much soc- Ellis girls soccer cap storybook season 336-753-0212 TrellisSupport.org cer as some of these other girls, but she’s an extreme-ly athletic and extremely competitive young lady. She scored a lot of goals this year.”The team was fueled by a remarkable eighth-grade class that included three girls who led the basketball team to 17-0 glory - center midfielder Olivia Smith, goalie Gracie Shore and defender Gracyn Coleman. The other eighth graders were Piper Davis, Makenzie Willard, Chaffin, Keylin Andrade, Grace Gilliam and Makenna McGowan. “The eighth grade class is just a special group of girls,” Cagle said. “Gracyn is a dedicated soccer player. She is a club player. Olivia and Gracie are club bas-ketball players. They are tremendous young ladies and tremendous athletes. Every now and then, you run through groups that are special, and this is a special group of kids.“Makenna is a club soc-cer player. Gracyn and Mak-enna are defensive-minded. We moved Makenna up some during the year and she got better and better and better as the year went on. The last two games she made a big difference.“Piper was with us last year, too. She made a lot of advancement and became a real anchor defensively.“Makenzie made a lot of progress. She had been in-jured, but she came back for the championship game and made a big, big difference.“You can be a good team, but if you don’t have some-body really good at goalie, you’re sure not gonna be a great team or you’ll be lucky to be a championship team. Gracie’s not a polished goal-keeper, but her great athleti-cism made up for any polish she didn’t have.”You can’t talk about the 13-1-1 season without mentioning Addison Lakey, Andrade, Gilliam and Kate Scott. “Addison made big strides, played the majority of the championship game and helped out an awful lot,” Cagle said. “Keylin, Grace and Kate Scott have all played vital roles for the past two years.”Notes: Ellis outscored opponents 60-7. ... The 22-deep roster included Mad-ison Tucker, Daniela Pe-rez-George, Zusanna Guer-erro, Tessa Crowley, Sum-mer Phifer, Harper Kettner, Kyndall Upright, Melanie Sanchez and Neriyah John-son. ... Morgan said Cagle’s soccer expertise has been a blessing for Ellis for two years. “I coached high-level club soccer for about 20 years, but it was just about all last century,” said Cagle, who bought a farm in Davie County in 1996 and has lived here since. ... Cagle was a long-term sub at Ellis last year, and he was a full-time teacher this year. “I’m the oldest first-year teacher in Davie County,” he said. “Everybody around Ellis wants to know how old I am. I asked them: ‘How old do you want me to be?’” Softball camp June 17-20 Davie softball will hold its summer camp June 17-20 from 8:30-11:30 a.m. at the high school. The cost is $55 per child.

While Morrison went 3 for 3, Coach Tristan “Shaggy” Wyatt got one hit from Aundray Russell (1-3), Riley Campbell (1-3), Caden Irvin (1-3), Hunter Baldwin (1-2) and Cooper Whitley (1-3). Mocksville trailed 3-0 before making it 3-3. It was only down 5-4 before High Point pulled away in the bottom of the fourth. In the second game - at home against Randolph County on May 22 - Mocksville outhit the visitors 10-6 but made three errors and lost 8-6. It held a 3-0 lead before things fell apart in the top of the fifth, when Randolph poured across six runs.
