In trying to juggle theresponsibilities of handlingrough roads, utility breaksand acts of nature — suchas breaking tree limbs thatcould pose a hazard thanksto sudden, accumulatingsnowfall in Farragut — BudMcKelvey said he was “verybusy” with “three thingsgoing at once.”
Such is the job of PublicWorks director in town of
Farragut, as McKelvey wasleft in charge of keepingTown roads relatively clearof snow, which began accu-mulating late Tuesday morn-ing, Jan. 27.
Though acknowledgingthe competency of Mc-Kelvey, his crew and otherTown officials responsiblefor dealing with ever wors-ening weather conditionsTuesday, Mayor RalphMcGill said he was con-cerned about a seriousweather related accident
within Town limits. “Peoplesometimes don’t realize howslick it can be,” he said.
“Today we’re a little bitsurprised with this one.”
At Town Hall Tuesdaymorning “for a meeting,”McGill said he got an earlytaste of rough conditions. “Icame home and started driv-ing up Sugarwood Drive anddid some slipping and stuff,and I called Town Hall andtold them to ‘try and get on

NCLB brings gangmembers to Farragut■ ALAN SLOAN
No Child Left Behindmay have its place on somelevels within Knox CountySchools, but “teachersdon’t like it, I don’t like it.”
That’s according to KnoxCounty Sheriff’s OfficeDet. Tom Walker, supervi-sor of KCSO’s HomelandSecurity Criminal Intelli-gence Unit who started its“Gang Unit” in 2002.
Farragut High Schoolbegan the currentschool year with nine gangmembers.
“If a kid gets kicked outof, say, one of the inner cityschools, Central or Fulton,for slugging a teacher. … Bylaw he can’t go back to thatschool because he might bepersecuted, that’s their the-ory on that,” Walker said asfeatured speaker during TheRotary Club of Farragut’sWednesday, Jan. 22, meetingin Fox Den Country Club.
“At that point, if thatchild is No Child LeftBehind or Special Ed., hegets to choose what schoolhe wants to go to. So wheredo they want to go?Farragut, Hardin Valley,
Karns,” Walker added.Moreover, if that NCLB
student attending FHS orHVA attacks a teacher —unless the teacher istrained in restraint tech-niques — “All they’reallowed to do is cover up,they’re not allowed tostrike a student or push astudent away,” Walker saidafter the meeting. “Theyare not allowed to touch astudent.”

Central figures in FarragutHigh School’s baseball programadmit to being shocked uponhearing about the death of ScottDean, Admirals assistant coachand former FHS star catcher(Class of 2004).
Scott was found dead Sundaymorning, Jan. 25, according toFHS baseball head coach MattBuckner. No other details werereleased. He was 28.
“I was absolutely stunned,”Ralph Skinner, public addressand radio voice of FarragutBaseball, said about Scott, anassistant coach under Bucknerfor four years (2010-2013).
“I’ve known Scotty since hewas a little boy. He and my son[Andrew] were classmates andteammates. … played youthbaseball together.
“Losing Scotty’s kind of likelosing a member of the family,”Skinner added. “It’s a toughtime right now.”
As for coaching, “My observa-tion watching from the press-box, it’s obvious he had a closeconnection with the players onthe field and in the dugout,”Skinner said. “I think theyrespected Scotty as a players’coach. He understood their situ-ation clearly as student-ath-letes.
“Scott’s been a big part ofFarragut baseball for a long timeas a player and a coach,”Buckner said about Scott, whofurthered his catching talents asa student/athlete at LincolnMemorial University and then atThe University of Tennessee.
“A great friend of mine. Agreat friend to a lot of people,”added Bucker, who coachedScott as an FHS assistant underthen head coach Tommy Pharrduring 2002 and 2003 seasons.
“A tremendous young coach. Avery good man.”
Scott, who worked for PerfectGame USA baseball scoutingservice “the past two years”according to Buckner, helpedcoach the Admirals to consecu-tive state championships in 2010and 2011.

Victim says ‘don’t expect much’
I am a 11-year Farragut resi-dent and a U.S. Army retiree. Ithank you for the opportunity[to] share this story in the far-ragutpress.
I did not pay much attention tothe “Police Reports” sectionuntil I was robbed in lateOctober [2013]. The perpetra-tors entered my house from theback porch after they bustedthrough my sunroom window.They went through the houseuntil they found the fireproofsafe in my bedroom closet. Thesafe, which contained a substan-
tial amount of cash, bonds, goldsilver, weighed approximately400 pounds. The perpetratorscarried the safe out through theback porch, and also stole mycomputer, .45 cal pistol and mili-tary awards.
They drove to I-75 Exit 81 andpulled in to the Tennessee ValleyAuthority office near that exit.They moved the safe behind adumpster and busted it open. ATVA employee heard them andapproached to witness two blackmales drop the safe and get intoa white Acura SUV, driven byanother individual. The TVAemployee was certain that the
vehicle had a Florida plate. TheTVA office camera posted on theoutside of the building capturedthe incident on film, and the filmwas turned over to Knox Countypolice. I provided the KnoxCounty Sheriff’s [Office] with mybond and pistol serial numbers,and detailed descriptions of mygold and silver items.
The police, who did not evendust my house for fingerprints,were unable to catch the perpe-trators — even with all of thisevidence. They have been unre-sponsive to my requests for fur-ther investigation — specificallya database search of
owners/renters of white AcuraSUVs with FL plates — for crim-inal history. The police said thatsuch a search would violate peo-ple’s rights. What about myrights? I have attempted to con-tact [Knox County] Sheriff JJJones but can’t get past his sec-retary, who repeatedly refers meto Det. Lt. Webb.
In sharing this experiencewith others and through readingthe weekly “Police Reports,” I’vecome to the conclusion thatFarragut has more than [its]share of robberies and burgla-ries. I asked the police depart-ment for a qualitative compari-
son of the burglary rate inFarragut to other cities inTennessee and the UnitedStates, which they have not pro-vided.
I share this story to heightenawareness and to let folks knownot to expect much from theKnox County Sheriff’s [Office] ifyou are burglarized.
Very Respectfully,Richard D “Don” Peters Jr.
Lt. Colonel, U.S. Army(Retired)
• I commend the writer whoexpressed disgust at the waychildren are permitted to runamuck in the Farragut librarywhile other patrons are theretrying to study, do research, orread. Attached to the interiorentrance door to the library is aposter entitled, “Library Rules ofConduct.” Among prohibitedbehaviors are “Any behavior thatis disruptive to library use” and“Leaving children under 10 unsu-pervised or ignoring their disrup-tive behaviors.” My husband andI frequent the library fairly often,and have seldom been therewhen we were not disturbed bychildren. Most of the worstoffenders running through thestacks and the reading areasappear to be in the 5-10 year oldrange. I was at the circulationdesk once and made a commentto the librarian about the run-ning and yelling going on aroundus. She said, apologetically, that
she couldn’t believe how thechildren were behaving, either,but that the staff had beeninstructed not to say anything tothem. I suppose, in this day andage, that one must not stifle thecreative abilities of the kids,much less say anything thatwould damage their self-esteemor hurt their feelings. I do thinkit is important that childrengrow up loving the library, as Idid, even though I knew that itwas a place to be quiet so as notto disturb others. And I knewthat if I forgot and spoke outloud, the librarian would justlook at me and put her finger toher lips or come over and tell meto be quiet. And I was happilyback the next week to pick outanother basket of books. I don’tblame the local librarians if theyare obeying the instructions theyare given. I do blame the personin authority in the Knox CountyLibrary system who gave the
instruction to let the childrenrun wild and undisciplined, indirect contrast to the postedrules. I also blame the parentswho permit their children tobehave in this manner. Thesechildren are growing up withoutlearning to respect or be consid-erate of others. Are they permit-ted to behave this way in the daycare center or the classroom? Ifnot, then why are they given freerun at the library? Another prob-lem is the children’s room for theyounger children. It is open tothe adult areas, and sound car-ries easily. We have heardtantrums and crying bouts, buthave yet to see a parent take theoffender outside to calm down.Even mothers who read aloud totheir children, and the children’sgiggles and exclamations can beheard. It’s delightful to hear thelittle ones enjoying being readto, and they deserve a sound-proof room so that their enjoy-
ment doesn’t spill over to thosestudying for a test or trying toconcentrate on writing a collegeentrance essay. And no, you don’tneed a brain to bemoan the lackof social graces; you just need tobe one of the fortunate oneswhose parents taught you goodmanners.
• The writer telling the storyof the child’s squeaky shoesthree weeks ago did not includeall the details probably becauseanyone who would have seen thenews that morning would haveknown all of the details. Thewriter stated her opinion in acordial manner, which we are allentitled to do, as did the firstresponder. What I noticed wasthe original writer was sayingthey felt consideration is notgiven to everyone equally, noth-ing wrong with that, but doesthere need to be an unrevealedreason to excuse bad manners?I’m sure even the first responder
wouldn’t dispute that fact. Thetwo other responders, the oneswith the brains, pretty muchechoed this same statement ofhow they have felt managementshave let the ball fall in treatingeveryone fairly in their places ofbusiness. All businesses are fear-ful of retribution if any negativewords are spoken. Has Americalost her sense of right andwrong? Seems it’s so.
• I was driving along theInterstate [I-40/75] last nightand was about blinded by theelectronic billboard justinstalled in front of the TurkeyCreek shopping area. This is adefinite safety hazard to drivers.I would hope that the appropri-ate parties would get the signowners to dim its wattage so thatit is not so blaringly distractiveto drivers.
[measures] you have taken, itstrikes me as a real lack of over-sight, a lack of any kind of con-trol of the situation,” Boardmember Jeff Elliott said.
“There’s always room forhuman error,” Patel said.
Board member Dot LaMarchemoved to impose a $500 finebecause Patel pled guilty, butElliott and Board member RonHonken disagreed because therewere two offenses. LaMarchewithdrew her first motion and
then moved to fine Patel $1,000.That motion passed unanimous-ly.
The Farragut Market ownersaid he thought the Beer Board’sdecision was unfair.
“I’m trying to be a responsiblevendor,” he said. “No matterwhat we put in the business thisTown doesn’t see it,” he said.
In other action, the Boardapproved beer permits for TacoBoy, a new business at 747 N.Campbell Station Road, andChina Pearl, an existing businessat 115 Brooklawn St. but withnew owner Mei Lien Wang.

that as soon as possible.’“I don’t really have to monitor or
direct any of them. I do take notethat they come by my house just tomake me feel comfortable thatthey’re out there and getting itdone,” McGill added.
Farragut Town Hall remainedopen for Town business most of theday, although its upstairs KnoxCounty annex offices all wereclosed by noon, David Smoak,Town administrator, said.
Five “plow” trucks, comprised of
“two dump truck plows and threepick-up plows,” joined “two salttrucks” that also have plows toclear Farragut roads, Smoak said.
“We have a snow priorityremoval schedule, and they’re fol-lowing that schedule,” Smoakadded. “Kingston Pike’s a stateroute [Tennessee Department ofTransportation’s duty], butCampbell Station, Parkside Driveand Grigsby Chapel, they hit allthose first. … Once they getthrough with the First Priority List,they [moved] on to the SecondPriority List.”
Smoak reported no accidents or
especially difficult weather chal-lenges as of mid-afternoon Tuesday.
Postponed Town meetings andclasses Tuesday included VisualResources Review Board and“Intro To Farragut” class, Smoaksaid, adding neither had beenrescheduled as of deadline.
As for Knox County servicescountywide, “Knox County execu-tive branch offices [closed] atnoon. Those offices include sen-ior centers, libraries, HealthDepartment, codes enforcement,etc.,” Michael Grider, Knox Countycommunications manager, via e-mail.

cate them until the age of 21,”Walker told the Rotarians. “Thelast gang member I interviewedover at Farragut High School is19, he has two credits that arepassable. He’s been in schoolfour years, and he’s sitting in in-school suspension with a fullycertified teacher watching himsleep all day in class.
“You can’t force him to learn.” “I asked him, ‘Why don’t you
just get a GED and quit? Go finda job or something?’ And he goes,‘I don’t have to leave until I’m21,’” Walker added. “He fullyintends to sit there until he’s 21because he can bring drugs inand sell them and then go sleep
the rest of the day in class. “Most of the kids know the sys-
tem better than we do.” Of the nine gang members at
FHS, “We got three kicked outimmediately. … Right now I thinkthere’s six,” Walker said after themeeting. “… One was drugs,another was fighting and makingthreats with another gang mem-ber. We didn’t find any guns.”
However, “Farragut’s verycalm this year,” Walker added.“Three years ago we had Rolling20 Bloods and a Crips set, andthey were fighting every day. Weactually have video where theywere fighting at the buses. …Two Crips and five Bloods. …The school system dealt with itquickly. They were kicked outand not allowed back.”
Overall, “We’re tracking about122 juvenile gang members thatare in Knox County Schools rightnow,” Walker said, adding thatthe worst gang problems alwaysoccur “in the first couple ofmonths after school starts. …We get them kicked out so fast.”
Including adults, “Right now wehave 1,372 gang members that wecan confirm in court in the GreaterKnox County area,” Walker said.“… At any given time we haveabout 400 of them in custody.”
Biggest Knox gang is “Rolling60 Crips, it’s a multi-racial gang,”Walker said.
However, because of tougherlaws, “Our juvenile membershiphas actually gone down,” Walkersaid. “… Gang life is not becomingthe cool thing to do anymore.”

I learneda lesson lastnight. It wasa simpleenough one;do notignore arule you’vefound to behelpful andright for you.I’m not talk-ing aboutthe big dealrules like theGolden oneand the TenCommandments. The rule I forgot tofollow was: When you buy clothing at
Goodwill, wash it before you wear it. I love to go to Goodwill because
I love to hunt for bargains. When Iwas getting out of debt I spent $75at Goodwill and built an entirewardrobe for our vacation (notincluding dry cleaner bills). Theenjoyment of searching for some-thing in mostly stuff I don’t wantmakes me wonder if I was a goldprospector in a past life. I love tofind good books, outrageous cos-tumes, expensive appliances andbeautiful clothes, knowing I’llhave to paw through a lot of junkto find those treasures.

Extending its helping hand toKnox County’s homeless, WaterAngels Ministries began rescuinglives from drug and alcohol addic-tion in 2013.
Ministry founders Stephanieand Jeff Mitchum, both membersof First Baptist Concord, openedtheir “House of Grace” in late Apriladjacent to their WAM headquar-ters near Western Avenue in down-town Knoxville.
Among those beginning to turntheir lives around is Randy Glover,a Farragut High School student inthe late 1970s who is attempting tobeat alcoholism and drug addic-tion. He’s among a handful lookingfor dramatic changes while livingtogether, and supporting eachother, in the “House.”
“It’s a safe place for me,” Glover,who entered the house in Septe-mber, said. “But No. 2, it’s based onthe Lord Jesus Christ and theBible.”
Trying to give back after beinginspired by his newfoundChristian faith, “Helping thesechildren around in this area that’sout here on the street like I was,”Glover added. “I see myself inthem, so I just try to help steerthem in the right direction.”
House of Grace, “probably 900square feet” according toStephanie Mitchum, is home tofive former homeless men fightingaddictions. Sam Bell, a homelessman “almost nine months clean”from alcohol and drug addiction,runs the House.
Bell first heard about WAM after“coming down here to get a pair ofshoes” during a recent yearsChristmas service, Mitchumadded.
“Water Angels is starting to turnmy life around,” Bell said. “Butwhen the House of Grace got here,
God just talked to me and let meknow what I was doing wrong withmy life.”
Although Mitchum said WAMdoes not provide any professionalsto help with House of Grace, “Wehave about eight volunteers; wehave a mentor for each man,” sheadded.
Long before House of Grace,“We’ve given them foods they needand cranberry juice to get themthrough the DTs so I could getthem in a treatment center afterthat,” Mitchum said.
At the House, “We’ve had noproblems with withdrawals or any-thing like that,” she added.
As for their routine, “They haveBible studies every morning andBible studies every night. And theygo through drug testing,” Mitchumsaid.
“But they also become my volun-teers here” at Water Angels “a fewhours a day. It’s teaching themhow to serve God, too. They helpother people.”
That includes inviting House ofGrace homeless to First BaptistConcord services, Mitchum said.“They’ve spoken in Sunday Schoolclasses and shared their testimo-ny. Concord people love my guys.”
With the exception of Bell, uponcleaning up after being off drugsand/or alcohol following a six-month program, “They graduate”and leave House of Grace,Mitchum said.
Frank Galbraith, an elder atUnion Cumberland PresbyterianChurch and retired social studiesteacher, holds a weekly Mondaynight Bible Study at WAM andremembers Glover as a former stu-dent.
“This guy comes running up, ‘Mr.G,’ and it was Randy,” Galbraithrecalled about his first WAM meet-ing with Glover, now a regular atGalbraith’s Monday Bible study.

paw through a lot of junk to findthose treasures.
About once a month, I stop into see what’s new, even though Iknow it’s all used. Usually I go into look for props for the videosTerry and I make. Last week I wasthere looking for a new HouseFairy gown and I found a beauti-ful semi-formal pantsuit (not forHouse Fairy). In black velvet, thepants were a slim cut and the topwas in stripes of copper and goldsparkles. I tried it on and it fitperfectly.
My rule has always stood aboutdry cleaning or laundering allclothing purchases from Goodwillbecause I don’t want my closet tosmell like, well a Goodwill store.However, this outfit was immacu-late. There were no stains orresidual food particles from pastparties stuck anywhere, so when Igot home I hung it up in my clos-et. . . . against my rule.
Last night I wore it. Terry and Iwent to a concert. We went out todinner first and lost track of timeenjoying a rare meal out. Whenwe found out we had about tenminutes before the concert start-ed, and we were ten minuteswalking distance from the the-atre we opted to run.
We just made it before thedoors closed (we’ve had themclose on us before) and when wefound our seats we settled in justas the orchestra began tuning up.The concert was music of ABA.
I’m not an ABA fan, mainlybecause I was a young mother inthe trenches of homemakingwhen they became popular and Ididn’t have time to listen to muchmusic back then so I didn’t evenknow they existed.
As I looked over the program Ifound one song I knew (DancingQueen) and that’s only becausewe saw Mamma Mia and I lovedthe music. As I sat there wonder-ing how many songs on the list Iwould know and as my breathfrom running returned to normal,I smelled a strange odor waftingup from under my winter coat. Itwasn’t exactly offensive like BO,but it was definitely strong. Iunbuttoned my coat and thesmell got stronger. Then it hit me;when my body heated up fromrunning and I started to perspire,my heat released the scent of theperson who previously owned thepantsuit. Having garments cle-aned or laundered takes care ofthat problem.
I leaned over to Terry and said,“I smell like somebody else.”
“What?” he asked with a con-fused look on his face.
“I smell like somebody else.” Irepeated. “Here, smell me.” Ithrust my coat open and my chestforward.
He leaned down just inches frommy breast and I heard him take adeep whiff of me. “Yeah, you’re rightyou do smell like somebody else.How come?” he whispered.
“It’s this outfit. It must be fromthe person who wore it before.”
“You’ve never worn it before?
Whose is it?”“I don’t know whose it was and
NO I’ve never worn it before! Ibought it at Goodwill and shouldhave had it cleaned.” I sort ofwhispered back.
It’s very disconcerting to smelllike somebody else. I’m positiveany one of my close dog friendswould have barked at me if I’dcome up to them in the dark inthat pantsuit.
I loved the ABA music, wonder-fully performed by Arrival theSwedish troupe that is currentlytouring the US with ABA’s music.In the end we were all dancing inthe aisles filled with the joy of theevening. You’ve probably guessedit by now the dancing did NOThelp my problem.
I have fond memories of theevening, because for a few min-utes I was:
The Dancing Queen, young andsweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beatfrom the tambourine
Yes I was jiving and having thetime of my life, even though Ismelled like some other DancingQueen I’ll probably never meet.

Presbyterian Church, she said.“It is open to the community,”
she said. “In fact, most of thepeople who attend do not go toFarragut Presbyterian.”
The group at the church is forany pre-kindergarten child frombirth to 4 or 5 years old, she said.
“The parents are being educat-ed as well to go home and contin-ue the play and the learning andthe imaginative experiencesonce they get home, so that thegroup continues even when theclass actually ends,” she said.
“They’re able to go home and putsome of these things intoaction.”
It’s a free class, she said.“People are welcome to come
check it out and see if it’s some-thing that would benefit theirfamilies,” she said.
The group started at FarragutPresbyterian Church this pastsummer, she said, and it hasalready grown.
“We started with just maybetwo families that came togethereach week, and we’re up to about12 pretty regular families withmultiple children, so you have aroom full of kids,” she said.

The Little Gym of Farragut,located at 215 Brooklawn St., willcelebrate its fifth anniversary inFebruary.
“We are a curriculum-based,non-competitive gymnastics pro-gram, and we provide non-com-petitive classes in [gymnastics],sports, dance, karate and alsoparent-child classes,” KatieVaughn, director of curriculum atThe Little Gym of Farragut andThe Little Gym of Knoxville, said.
The Little Gym of Farragutteaches children from 4 monthsto age 12, Vaughn said.
“And of course, if it’s in themiddle of the season and theyturn 13, we’re not going to kickthem out,” she added. “... Our sea-son runs parallel with the schoolyear. We start in August and gointo May. It’s a 40-week season,and then we also have a summersession, which is 10 weeks duringthe summer time. ... We haveopen enrollment throughout theentire season.”
The parent-child classes arefor children from 4 months old towhen they turn 3, she said.Parents participate.
“They promote early develop-ment and provide a strong foun-dation,” Vaughn said.
Once they turn 3, the childrentake classes on their own.
Vaughn described all classes.“Overall all the classes kind of
have the same structure,” shesaid. “They participate in warm-ups and group activities, andthen they learn specific gymnas-tics skills and all the lessonsplans are catered to the specificage groups of the children.”
Classes are broken up into agegroups.
“For the most part, everythinghas that basic structure: thegroup activities, the warm-ups,”
she said. “And every class that wedo has some aspect of gymnastics,so the karate, the dance and thesports, they all will have someaspect of gymnastics included init.”
The Little Gym of Farragut is afranchise of The Little GymInternational, she said, and thereare The Little Gym franchises allover the world.
Vaughn described the gym’smission.
“The mission is not only to buildphysical skills but to nurture theircognitive and social skills as
well,” she said. “... As far as physi-cal development goes, we helpbuild flexibility and strength,coordination, and then as far astheir cognitive skills go, we helpwith listening skills, decisionmaking. And then with the social-ization, we promote sharing andteamwork and cooperation, and itjust helps overall build a well-rounded kid.”
Vaughn talked about howimportant it is that children havethese physical, social and cogni-tive skills.
“It’s extremely important
because it’ll help them through-out life in anything else that theydo,” she said. “The physicalaspect will help them in any othersports that they decide to partici-pate in.
“... For some of our younger kidswho aren’t in school yet, they’reable to get that [the social andthe cognitive aspect] before theyget to school, so it helps themonce they start into preschool orkindergarten ... and possibly[helps them] be more preparedonce they get into school,” Vaughnadded.

Hardin Valley Academy andBearden played to a split Fridaynight, Jan. 25, at HVA.
T h eH a w k sdefeatedt h eBulldogs 91-74 while the LadyBulldogs routed the Lady Hawks55-31.
In the boys game, the Hawks,who had to come from behind tobeat the Bulldogs in Decemberat Bearden, notched a seasonsweep with a big win.
And HVA, which erased a 16-
point halftime deficit in the firstmeeting, didn’t have to comefrom behind this time. The twosquads were embroiled in a 19-19tie after the first quarter beforeHardin Valley (14-7 overall, 8-3 inDistrict 4-A A A )r a c e dpast theBulldogs (15-7, 8-3) who werewithout point guard IsaiahCampbell, who missed the gamewith a bruised finger.
The Hawks wanted to avoid asluggish start against theBulldogs and did.
“They played better than wedid in the first half over there
and in this game, we just saidthat we were going to come outand play better in the first half,”Hardin Valley guard BlaineShockley, who scored 16 of his 23points after halftime,” said.
After an even first quarter, theHawks used some hot shootingfrom Shockley, Zak Carter (whoalso finished with 23 points) andcenter Dyonta Bizzle-Brown, whoscored 22 points and broughtdown the house with a dunk latein the third quarter to give theHawks a 62-45 lead .
“They shot the ball well,”Bearden head coach MarkBlevins said. “They’ve got a goodbench and they came right at us.
“They’ve played well against usboth times that we’ve played.”
Bearden, which fell behind 45-31 by halftime, never reallymounted a serious comebackeffort as HVA played possibly itsbest game of the season.
“Before the game we talkedabout what happed in the firsthalf over there and tonight, weplayed a full game and everybodystepped up,” Carter said.
Hawks’ head coach Keith Gall-oway echoed Carter’s senti-ments.
“We want to be aggressive andmake every play count,” he said.“Our defense stepped up.
“Everybody contributed and
we're just really, really proud ofour guys for their effort.”
Jack Graham scored 21 pointsto lead the Bulldogs.
Meanwhile, Bearden’s girlsnotched another impressive vic-tory despite the fact that HardinValley’s defense shut down ErinWalsh, Walsh, one of KnoxCounty’s top scorers, managedjust two points against HVA’s box-and-one defense designed to stopher.

Hoping to bounce back from adisappointing season, FarragutHigh School’s lacrosse team has astarting line-up filled with talentand experience.
So said the team’s new skipper. “I’m excited about the boys’
commitment and intensity thisyear,” head coach Marty Suttonsaid, adding he’s been “influentialin growing this sport in Knoxville”at the youth level.
“A strong attack is led byLandon Williams, senior; DarrenNarveson, a junior, and BradleyBalltrip, a sophomore. All arereturning starters,” Sutton said.“Unfortunately, Landon Williamsis injured and had some shouldersurgery. But he’ll hopefully beback in April.
“Midfield is led by seniorsJackson Brooks, Nathan Ogierand Case White, and junior NoahGiacalone,” he added.
Defensively, “We have returningseniors Daniel Costigan, WillMcFarland and David Oron-Shelton,” Sutton said. “And wehave returning sophomores:Hayden Smith and [junior] RyanPeterson, also sophomore ColinBeekman.”
In goal “is returning starter, ajunior, Shyam Thiagarajan. Butalso returning, and kind of fight-ing it out for the job is CalebSmith, a junior,” the coach added.
While saying, “We’re prettystrong at all positions,” Suttonadded, “I think we’re strongestand deepest with defense.”
However, “Our total team depthis not very deep,” Sutton, whoplayed major college lacrosse atthe University of North Carolinain the mid- to late 1970s, said. “Weonly have 26 players right now …basically what we would like tohave is about 40 players on theteam so we could have a full varsi-ty and junior varsity.”
Failing to make the playoffs lastseason by not finishing in the topfour in Tennessee ScholasticLacrosse Association’s East divi-sion, Sutton said, “Our maximumgoal is to win state. Our minimumgoal … is to get into the playoffs.”
Farragut’s season startsSaturday, March 1, at Centennial.The Admirals’ first home gamebegins at 2 p.m., Sunday, March 9,
versus Webb Bell Buckle at thenew synthetic upper rectangularfield at Mayor Bob Leonard Park.
“The big powers in this sportare mostly the private schools likeMcCallie down in Chattanooga,MBA [Montgomery Bell Academyin Nashville], MUS [MemphisUniversity School], they’re alwaysthe top three,” Sutton said. “AndRavenwood’s always been in thehunt, that’s the public school inNashville. Brentwood’s kind ofcoming up.”
Assistant coaches are BobBeekman, Scott Penny, MattGiacalone and John Troyer.
“Scott is a blessing to me. He’sa former defenseman with the UTprogram,” Sutton said.
Locally, “Webb’s gotten a littlebit better,” Sutton said about fel-low East division members. “WestKnox is now competitive, too.”
balanced attack and dominatedthe offensive boards.

“They were able to get scoringfrom all over the floor. Theymade big shots and we had trou-ble getting defensive rebounds.”
Bearden coach JustinUnderwood said he was pleasedwith his team’s effort.
“Lexus and Chanler really shotthe basketball well. They helpedus spread the floor against thebox-and-one,” he said. “Olivia,Kaci [Mitchell] and Tyler[Carter] did a good job rebound-ing.”
