Louisiana group ﬂees to bunkers when counterstrikes begin

A pot of gold at every rainbow’s end

BY BOB WARREN Staff writer

The Rev. Michael Sprague is no stranger to the Holy Land. But a recent trip to visit some of Christianity’s most cherished sites included a dose of fear as he and the group of 44 people he escorted to Israel found themselves heading for bunkers and bomb shelters as sirens blared and missiles and drones flew overhead. Finally home in Mandeville on March 4, Sprague was able to relax and talk about a Holy Land pilgrimage cut short when Iran launched a counterattack against sites across the Gulf region in response to the joint U.S.-Israeli attack PROVIDED PHOTO that has taken out Michael Sprague in Israel targets across in a photo he posted to his Iran.

The group he led this time around, which had

Covington Celtic Club will rain green and a bit of pink BY LISA VON EBERSTEIN Contributing writer

Families in shades of green — and one vibrant splash of pink — will brighten the streets of downtown Covington on March 14 as the Covington Celtic Club hosts its eighth annual St. Patrick’s Parade. The nonprofit social club, made up of about 200 members, stages what co-founder Cody Ludwig calls a “family-friendly marching parade” through downtown Covington each year. With bagpipes, kilts and neighborhood groups filling the route, Ludwig describes it simply: “It’s just a good little community parade.” Ludwig said the steady growth has been good not only for the club but also for local restaurants and shops as paradegoers gather to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. “Every year we grow a little bit,” she said. ”All of the businesses in the community flourish because of it.” Among the many marching groups, one in particular has become a crowd favorite: the Greater New Orleans chapter of Ainsley’s Angels, its signature bright pink standing out against the parade’s sea of green. “It just always makes my heart happy when we see them,” Ludwig said of the group that inevitably makes

A $2.5 million project to renovate and expand the skate park at Pelican Park into one of the premier action sports facilities in the region is rolling toward completion. The new “Pelican’s Nest” will provide skateboard and roller sports enthusiasts roughly 30,000 square-feet of rideable terrain, nearly triple the size of the park’s original skating complex. It will be the second largest skate park in the state, slightly smaller than the one at Perkins Road Community Park in Baton Rouge, and park ofﬁcials will soon announce the grand opening at Pelican. Pelican Park Executive Director Suzanne Fisher said the refurbished, all-wheels skate park represents a signiﬁcant milestone for the 500-acre park just east of Mandeville.

Many thousands more lined the roadsides, calling out for cabbages, potatoes, onions and a myriad of other produce and traditional parade throws, including beads, cups and plush toys. Kelly Hartmann was this year’s queen and Louis Ochoa was king. Louisiana Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser rode as grand marshal of the parade. Maids for the 51st parade were Megan Haggerty, Dawn Crippin, Lauren Kaufmann Navarre and Amoré Neck. Dukes were Charles Barrios, Jake Morris, Ralph Kastner Jr. and Michael Pisciotta.

left New Orleans on Feb. 22, included a number of former military members, he said. “So I was with a good group,” Sprague said as he laughed during an interview on March 5. What none of the group knew at the time they left New Orleans was that within a matter of days, their tour would be thrust into a war zone. U.S. and Israeli forces attacked Iran two weeks ago, resulting in the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. President Donald Trump has not given a timeline for the end of the joint assaults, and armed forces have increased the scale of their attacks in recent days. Trump has said the attacks are aimed at destroying Iran’s missile capabilities, preventing it from developing nuclear weapons and ensuring it does not fund terrorism outside its borders.

Sprague said his group was just arriving at Bethany on Feb. 28, leaving the tour bus “when every phone started going off, telling us to immediately ﬁnd shelter.” “Then we heard the sirens. That’s when Israel was ﬁrst being attacked,” he said. Those initial missile warnings on Feb. 28 were followed by 21 more in the ensuing days, each telling people to take cover in bunkers and bomb shelters. “We’d go in (to a shelter), wait about 10 minutes, then you’d be able to go back to your room,” he said. At one point, Sprague said, he was late reacting to one of the warnings and getting into the shelter. “I’m looking out of my window and ‘Boom! Boom!’ I see missiles coming across the sky and being taken out” by the anti-missile interceptors. Sprague said he and the group spent the next few days in Jerusalem, sticking close to their hotel and the bomb shelter. The rest of the tour events were obviously canceled, as the area was under a take-shelter or-

der, he said. As airports in Tel Aviv and Jordan closed, Sprague said the tour company, over several days, was able to arrange buses to take the group to Egypt, following a circuitous route due to terrorism fears. The bus trip took 19 hours, but the group made it to Cairo and members were able to get ﬂights to European cities and then back to the U.S. As he talked about the trip, Sprague sounded almost surprised at how little fear he felt among the group. “Trust God, trust each other,” he said. “There was an amazing sense of peace in the midst of all this going on. God made us students. We needed to learn faith.” One thing that struck Sprague, however, was how fortunate he and other group members were that they were able to safely evacuate the region. The people who live in that part of the world, he said, must face the threat every day. “What really hits you is that people live like this 24 hours a day, seven days a week,” he said.

paradegoers smile. Ainsley’s Angels is a national organization dedicated to inclusion and empowerment for people with special needs, pairing “angel runners” with “angel riders” — athletes who participate in races and events in specially designed chariots. When they roll and stride down the parade route, they do so in brilliant pink shirts, tutus and accessories that make them instantly recognizable. “Covington Celtic Club is very special to us, too, because that’s the very ﬁrst parade that we ever got involved in. And because of the parade, we have made some really great connections in the community,” said Jennifer Cardinal, lead “guardian angel” for the local chapter. The chapter includes about 60 riders and 300 runners, with more than half of them from the northshore. While racing events are the primary focus, the Covington parade offers something very special.

Slidell Elks celebrate citywide ﬁrst responders BY SUZIE HUNT

Contributing writer The Slidell Elks Lodge recognized five first responders for outstanding service to their community during the lodge’s 32nd annual Law & Order Program on Feb. 28. “We believe strongly as an organization, that it’s important to recognize the work done by our law enforcement officers, firefighters and first responders,” said Jimmy Crippin, the exalted ruler of Lodge No. 2320 and the evening’s master of ceremonies. Prior to the awards ceremony, a forum discussing local and national issues was held with representatives from local agencies, as well as the FBI, Drug Enforcement Administration and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. DEA group supervisor Larry Johnson provided an update on the work on the Opioid Task Force. He expounded on its success and said that it is a first of its kind in the United States. After forum participants answered questions from the audience, the event’s honored guests were announced. They were: St. Tammany Parish Deputy of the Year Jacob Paretti was recognized for his dedi-

cation to both the community and the mission of the Sheriff’s Office. Along with his proven leadership skills, his nomination noted that Paretti embodies the values of community-oriented policing by constantly reflecting compassion, patience, and a genuine desire to help through outstanding service. City of Slidell Police Officer of the Year Joshua Feraci was cited for his work as a newly-certified Drug Recognition Expert. The designation required rigorous training, a deep knowledge of drug impairment indicators and a high level of observational skill. He was also instrumental in the implementation of a soft restraint system called the WRAP, designed to prevent injuries to both combative suspects and officers. Firefighter of the Year Capt. Brandon Sauter was cited for his dedication to consistently improving the buildings and equipment used by district firefighters, as well as his work in the training and development of new hires. Through sharing his experience with the men and women beginning their careers, Sauter shows his commitment to developing the next generation of firefighters. EMT of the Year Capt./

The wearer of many hats, he recently led the ﬁrst ever inhouse EMT course to a 100% pass rate. During the past year, Suber and members of L14 provided life-saving care at an accident site to a woman who had received a severe leg laceration and critical blood loss. The care provided by Suber and his team made it possible for the patient to make it to the hospital for emergency surgery and go on to recover. State Trooper of the Year Alexander Winks’ investigative and observational skills were cited as exceptional.

“It’s more than just a new facility; it’s a dedicated space for our youth and action-sports enthusiasts to connect, challenge themselves and build community,” Fisher said. The project has been in the works for a few years, beginning with community engagement meetings during which input was solicited on what prospective users would like in the park. Newline Skateparks Inc., a Canadian planning, design and construction firm that has built about 400 top-end skateparks across North America, Europe, Australia and Asia, was hired to design and build the park. “The park was designed with the existing system of skateparks in the Greater New Orleans area in mind to ensure it did not replicate anything already offered in the region,” said Louisette Scott, Pelican Park’s director of planning and education. “We wanted to provide a unique, world-class experience.” The design includes a street plaza, bowl and pump track and amenities, such as upgraded lighting for nighttime use, native plantings throughout, a water fountain with bottle refill, dedicated seating areas for spectators, shade structures and an artificial turf island. The specific construction details and features within the park lean into the name Pelican Park. The colors

He was credited with 24 DWI arrests and solving two hit-and-run investigations, ensuring accountability and providing closure to the victims. Last July, Winks was dispatched to a disabled ve-

The evening’s program was dedicated to the memory of Pat Massarini, a longtime lodge member and chairman of its annual Law & Order Program for 18 years.

In response to this year’s cuts to District Attorney Collin Sims’ budget, St. Tammany Parish legislators have filed a handful of bills in the 2026 legislative session to try to ease the agency’s anticipated financial crunch. But not all of them are receivSims ing support from the St. Tammany Parish Council and Parish President Mike Cooper. While bills sponsored by Rep. Peter Egan, R-Covington, which could lead to more state funding for the District Attorney’s Office are likely to get backing from council members, a bill that Rep. Kim Carver, R-ManEgan deville, prefiled at the end of February caught them by surprise. Historically, the Parish Council

funding without the district attorney’s approval, or unless there are uniform cuts across all parish Carver departments, as in the case of some sort of natural disaster that destroys the parish’s tax base. “We wanted to put something in the statute that would say, ‘This is going to be the floor,” Carver said in a recent interview. The criminal division of Sims’ office went from receiving $6.28 million in 2025 from the parish’s general fund to $4.38 million in 2026 —a 30% cut. Under Carver’s bill, while parish officials have said Sims could face greater than 50% cuts in 2027 compared to 2025, those larger cuts would be unlikely since they would require permission from Sims. Cooper and the Parish Council don’t want to cut the district attorney’s funding any further, but after six different attempts to get voters to approve criminal justice tax propositions failed in the past decade, the parish’s general fund can no longer adequately cover its state-mandated criminal justice

to fund Sims’ ofﬁce without once again asking voters for a tax. Cooper, meanwhile, said he was not consulted on the bill in advance. “At a time when we are collaborating and working to ﬁx the funding shortfall, this particular action would hurt more than help,” he said in a statement. Conversations are now underway between council members, Carver and Sims to tweak the bill. Council Chair Cheryl Tanner said she has shared concerns with Carver and Sims. “This council should not lose control of their budgeting authority,” Tanner said. Carver has committed to not move forward with the bill without further discussion, and the Northshore Business Council, whose members include a number of business leaders, will likely host a gathering for the parties involved in the coming weeks for discussion purposes. Carver said he has told some council members he regretted not including them more ahead of time. “I’m not trying to put anybody in an unwinnable situation, including my friends on the council. I welcome their input on it,” Carver

ity.” “I’d be negligent to not protect this organization from that possibility,” Sims said.

Litigation Another part of Carver’s bill could help Sims avoid an adverse ruling in the ongoing lawsuit between his office and the parish over how much the parish is required to fund his ofﬁce. Though the litigation with Sims is on pause, St. Tammany Parish Government a few years ago sued Sims’ ofﬁce and the 22nd Judicial District Court judges, asking the court to determine the minimum amount the parish is legally required to fund them. The judges also rely on the parish’s tapped-out general fund. Ad hoc Judge John E. Conery ruled in May 2024 that St. Tammany government was not required to fund various expenses of the judges, including the salaries of positions like law clerks and judges’ administrative assistants, because they were not listed in the state statute. The case is currently with the state First Circuit Court of Appeal. Sims said Conery’s ruling makes

penses that the parish would be required to fund for the district attorney, including office supplies, travel and various positions like investigators, secretaries and clerks. Sims said he pointed Carver to statutes governing the budgets of district attorneys in other judicial districts, such as the judicial district for Jefferson Parish, which listed various positions and other required expenses. In the meantime, there are two bills from Egan that could change the number or value of each judicial district’s “warrants,” that is, the money each district attorney receives from the state to pay for prosecutors’ salaries. The Parish Council passed a resolution in November calling on the state to increase the number of warrants for the 22nd Judicial District Court, which the resolution said has stayed at 30 since 2008, even as St. Tammany’s population has grown since then. Egan said in a March 4 interview that work was still being done on his bills to calculate the right number of warrants. Staff writer Bob Warren contributed to this article.

Fire District No. 3 increases its protection rating Staff report St. Tammany Fire District No. 3 has announced that its fire protection rating issued by the Property Insurance Association of Louisiana will improve from a Class 4 to a Class 3, effective April 1. This rating system evaluating the overall effectiveness of a community’s fire protection services help insurance companies determine property insurance premiums for homes and businesses within a fire district. For residents and businesses, this rating change may positively affect their property insurance premiums, as many insurance providers use these ratings when determining fire protection risk. While the exact impact varies by insurer and policy, improved fire protection ratings can potentially result in lower insurance costs. Because each insurance company evaluates the rating differently, residents are encouraged to contact their property insurance provider after April 1 to determine how the new classification may affect their premiums. Fire Chief Michael Geissler credited the achievement to the dedication of the district’s personnel and the continued support of the community. “This improvement reflects the hard work and commitment of our firefighters, staff, and leadership,” Geissler said. “Their continued investment in fire protection helps us provide the highest level of service to the citizens of Fire District 3.” The rating scale ranges from Class 1, the highest level of fire protection, to Class 10, when there is no recognized fire protection.

Firefighters from St. Tammany Fire Protection District No. 3 were among many local departments that battled a wildfire in the Lacombe area on Feb. 22. A Class 3 rating places STFD3 among the better-protected communities in Louisiana, reﬂecting strong fire protection services and infrastructure within the district. In determining the rating, the group examined several factors,

including: n Fire department capabilities, including staffing, training, response readiness, and equipment; n Water supply and distribution systems, such as hydrant availability, ﬂow capacity, and maintenance;

Slidell corrections officer arrested in FBI sting

10-year SPD employee charged with sending obscene material to a minor, more, police say BY WILLIE SWETT

Staff writer

A Slidell corrections ofﬁcer who works in the city’s jail was arrested by federal agents on March 3 after allegedly sending obscene material to an undercover FBI agent posing as a 15-year-old girl that the ofﬁcer was chatting with online. The FBI arrested Nicholas Engolia, 31, of Slidell on counts of transfer of obscene material to a minor and coercion and enticement of a minor, Slidell Police Chief Daniel Seuzeneau said in a video released

March 4. Engolia was a 10-year employee of the Slidell Police Department, Seuzeneau said in the video, adding that paperwork had been filed to terminate Engolia from his position. He said he did not believe that Engolia had previously committed any crimes of this nature. “I am beyond pissed off right now,” Seuzeneau said in the video. “That is an understatement on how I feel, on how all the men and women of this agency feel.” Seuzeneau said Engolia chatted online with someone he thought was 15 and

decided to travel to a park in Covington to meet with her. The person Engolia had been allegedly chatting with turned out to be an undercover FBI agent. Seuzeneau said Engolia will “receive no favors.” “In fact, he should be held to a higher standard because of what he chose to do as a profession,” he said in his video. “This is absolutely not what this department stands for. We are not going to let this one incident tarnish (the uniform) ... because of what Mr. Engolia did,” Seuzeneau said.

n Emergency communications, including dispatch systems and response coordination; and n Fire prevention programs, inspections and community risk reduction efforts. Improvement in these areas contributed to the district’s ad-

vancement from a Class 4 to Class 3 rating. For more information, residents may contact St. Tammany Fire District No. 3 at (985) 882-5977 or speak with their property insurance provider regarding potential policy adjustments.

Dew Drop Jazz Hall welcomes jazz vocalist Betty Shirley BY SHEILA GRISSETT Staff writer

Celebrated jazz vocalist Betty Shirley will bring shades of the divine Nina Simone, Etta James and Bessy Smith with her when Shirley takes the stage on March 14 in Old Metairie at the Dew Drop Jazz & Social Hall, a 100-plus year-old shotgun-style jazz venue nestled under the live oaks near Lake Pontchartrain. This singer was born in Jackson, Mississippi, raised in Chicago and left the Windy City at 16 to become a jazz singer in New York City where, soon after, she was performing at the Village Gate, Birdland and other well-known jazz clubs in the Big Apple. But like jazz performers are wont to do, she was ultimately drawn to New Orleans, arriving in the early 1990s to become a much-in-demand entertainer at festivals and clubs, such as Dos Jefes, the Royal Sonesta and Snug Harbor. She has performed around the world, with some of the best musicians of the day and still produces her own music, including “The Betty Shirley Band — Live at 2024 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.” The Times-Picayune has declared that Shirley — also a visual artist and educator — has a voice that “should be heard around the world” when performing from her extensive repertoire of modern and traditional jazz, blues, R&B, bossa nova and her own original compositions. With the backing of her Betty Shirley Band in Mandeville, she can be expected to use her innate humor, impressive vocal range, expressive voice and scatt singing to entertain her audience in the intimate Dew Drop Jazz Hall from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m.

St. Tammany tourism arm reports strong 2026 start

BY KADEE KRIEGER Contributing writer

Visit the Northshore reported last week that tourism in St. Tammany has seen a strong start in 2026, from an increase in local film productions to engagement in social media campaigns. The organization, which is celebrating 50 years promoting St. Tammany as a tourist destination, reported a buzz of activity in both sales and marketing so far this year. The report came during the regular Tourist Commission meeting Feb. 24 at the headquarter office near Mandeville. Marketing team member Roberta Carrow-Jackson said five film projects are already in production in the area, showing promise for the year since 2025 saw eight productions in total. “That’s a huge

uptick and good news,” CarrowJackson said. “It’s early in the year, and I expect the momentum to continue.” The productions are feature films “A Christmas Kind of Love,” written and directed by Louisiana filmmaker Bethany Ashton Wolf; “Tiger Bones” and “Goodbye Girl,” an Amazon production; and commercials for Techron and Orijen Fresh dog food. She said Visit the Northshore assists film crews with scouting locations, obtaining proper permitting and working out logistics. The current productions represent an estimated $45,000 in unincorporated St. Tammany spending to date, adding there may also be other projects within city limits not reported to the tourism agency. In addition, St. Tammany hosted several conferences earlier, in-

cluding the Louisiana Department of Health WIC Conference at the Harbor Center near Slidell, and scheduled for March is the Southwestern Cheerleader’s Association Battle at the Big Easy in the Castine Center near Mandeville. The tourism organization has also launched the second year of its Shore and Tell University, a hospitality ambassador program designed to strengthen destination knowledge and elevate customerservice across the parish. The 18 members of the Class of 2026 represent hoteliers and staff of the Harbor Center, Pelican Park, Global Wildlife Center and the Maritime Museum Louisiana. “These program participants are strengthening their customer service skills and learning about tourism venues across our area,” said Tanya Leader, vice president

of sales and services. The organization’s podcast “All The Waves” launched its third season, and Chief Marketing Ofﬁcer Katie Guasco said the podcast will highlight nearly 40 Northshore residents or business owners as guests on the show. “The podcast is a huge effort by our team and it has become a powerful storytelling tool about our destination and connections in our community. We are very proud of it,” she said. Additionally, she said episodes this year will feature leaders and guess from across the parish and highlight current events, such as the America 250 milestone. “We try to stay current and hit all areas of the parish,” Guasco said. Guasco said social media engagement has continued to show strong growth across every plat-

form, particularly on Facebook and Instagram. To help businesses and organizations strengthen their own social media campaigns, Visit the Northshore Communications Manager Nicole Davis in January hosted a Social Media Marketing Workshop where participants learned tips from top content creators across the region. Guasco said that the 2026 edition of Visit the Northshore’s Visitors’ Guide launches March 15 and focuses on the area’s outdoor spaces, scenery and activities. And marketing all year will “get a little glitz” through special logos and graphics signaling the organization’s 50th anniversary.

Tourism group happy with results of recent survey BY KADEE KRIEGER Contributing writer

Northshore residents who participated in a survey as part of the 10-year master plan for Visit the Northshore, which promotes St. Tammany to visitors, shared their desire to strengthen the area as a tourist destination. The survey results are exciting, said Visit the Northshore President and CEO Donna O’Daniels, because it’s a position that the organization has held for years. “This survey shows that people are seeing what we’ve been saying for about 10 years. It makes me excited about the direction that this is going,” O’Daniels said of the master plan process. She shared the survey results with members of the St. Tammany Tourist Commission during the board meeting Feb. 24, held at the Visit the Northshore office near Mandeville. The Destinations Next survey results came from MMGY NextFactor, the destination management company that is about at the halfway point in conducting the year-long process to create a master plan that will outline recommendations for Visit the Northshore to strengthen the parish as a tourist destination into the next decade. It included about 200 resident participants. O’Daniels said the survey, which asked residents to rate the area on its destination strength, showed an increased interest in new hotels, resorts, meeting spaces or sports venues over just a few years ago. In a similar survey conducted three years ago, participants gave St. Tammany an above average rating for its destination strength. But in the recent survey for the master plan data, the destination strength category received below average scores. “It seems like it’s going backwards, but it’s not,” O’Daniels said. “Because people are realizing

We do need different types of hotels and venues for the widespread support of all types of visitors.” She said the survey shows that St. Tammany residents are “getting it that we can and should take our destination to the next level.” Survey participants named fullservice hotels and resorts with meeting or conference space along

with sports venues as the top priorities. In addition, they pinpointed improved infrastructure and better signage as ways to improve experiences for visitors and residents alike. Some responses asked for better ways to access waterfront areas in order to enjoy outdoor activities throughout the northshore. “These are things that will improve visitor experience, but also quality of life overall,” O’Daniels said. “We are projected to have

normal, stable growth in the next 10 years, but it’s exciting to see that residents want to push past that.” She said the most recent survey results adds to the anticipation of having a master plan to guide the area’s growth as a vibrant tourism destination In addition to the Destinations Next survey, MMGY NextFactor has completed dozens of personal interviews and focus groups; surveyed hotels, restaurateurs,

attractions, retail outlets, health care providers and wellness facilities; facilitated town hall meetings; and held a vision brainstorming session March 3. O’Daniels said she expects to receive this summer the full report of recommendations and the ﬁnal scope of the master plan.

Spring gardening events set in Covington, Mandeville

Staff report

Two spring gardening events this month, one in Mandeville and another in Covington, are kicking off the most popular growing season in St. Tammany Parish. First comes the Keep Covington Beautiful Spring Seminar from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on March 22 in the Firehouse Event Center at 432 N. Theard St. Speakers include Alex Landry, naturalist and environmentalist coordinator at Pelican Park; Jacob Bopp, restoration program manager for the Land Trust of Louisana; and Greg Capranica with the People’s Forest Foundation. The three will discuss a range of issues geared to southeast Louisiana envi-

ronments, from recognizing venemous snakes to understanding and creating backyard microhabitats. Free admission for current members; $20 for non-members at the door. RSVP to info@keepcovingtonbeautiful.org. On March 27, the St. Tammany Master Gardener Association Spring Seminar, “Seeding is Believing,” will be held at the Castine Center at Pelican Park near Mandeville from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Speaker presentations will include: n “Seeds of Sustainable Landscaping — Tips to Keep Your Garden Growing” by Assistant Professor of Landscape Horticulture Damon Abdi n “Management of Soil Seedbank for Landscapes”

by Assistant Professor of Horticulture Weed Science Colton Blankenship n “Seeding for Success — Information on Starting Plants from Seeds” by Will Afton, a state extension agent for horticulture Other presentations focus on tropical house plants, cold weather seed starting, growing garden roses, using native plants in the home landscape, and making food and medicine with spring weeds. Advance registration is required, and tickets are $25 per person. The deadline to register is March 20 at the stmastergardener website. The seminar is presented by the St. Tammany Master Gardener Association in conjunction with the LSU AgCenter.

Not everyone would enjoy organizing the nitty gritty details of ticket sales. The counting and the logging and the organization. It’s tedious, time consuming and it takes a certain person to actually enjoy that process. And for the Youth Service Bureau’s Chef Soiree that certain person is volunteer Gina Snyder. “I do enjoy the detail work some people would not probably like,” she said. But Snyder is a pro at it, and after 20 years serving as the organization’s go-to gal for ticketing, she’s earned that rank. Every person, sponsor, volunteer or participant at the event must have a ticket, and Snyder is the one making that happen. Noting every order, she packages up each ticket bundle based on the sponsor or level purchased, and handles the logistics of delivery. “It’s a lot of good busy work for a great cause, and it’s just a passion of mine,” said Snyder, noting she was a fan of the soiree and attended even before she was a volunteer. This year’s Chef Soirée takes place March 15 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Bogue Falaya Park in Covington. It features a variety of food samples and beverages curated and served by local chefs. Live music, fireworks and the raffling of a new Ford Bronco Sport will also take place. Tickets are $145 for admission and $55 for raffle tickets, all of which Snyder spends months processing, of course. “Every ticket has been blessed by her hands,” said Cleveland Wester, chief executive officer for YSB. “Gina is self-driven, dedicated, hardworking, professional and detailed-oriented person that works behind the scenes to ensure a smooth transition for over 3,100 patrons every year.” But Snyder said that while she does enjoy the process of being the group’s ticket titan, she does so because she loves the cause: the many programs the event supports at the YSB — the local nonprofit that provides a number of programs for at-risk youth in St. Tammany and Washington parishes. Services such as providing courtappointed advocates or intervention for youths with truancy, behavioral or other serious issues are among the programs they oversee. The organization has five programs that support families, all listed in detail on its website. “I love the organization, and I love the

And Snyder’s ties are deep. She has even taken on a part-time role at the YSB as a program assistant for the Court Appointed Special Advocates program. However, her efforts at the soirée are completely volunteer. The YSB makes an impact, she explained, by supporting families “desperately in need” of its resources. However, outside of her work with the YSB, Snyder is a self-proclaimed “homebody” who loves cooking, dancing and walks in nature with her husband of 26 years. She’s just a “simple girl,” she said. But to the YSB, she isn’t just simple. She’s special.

A place where prom dreams do come true

BY MARGARET ALBERT Contributing writer

The Greenwood event venue in Covington was the place to be on Feb. 22 when the Junior League of Greater Covington hosted Project Prom. Clothing racks of formal gowns and tables of glittering shoes to complete the perfect prom look bordered the perimeter of the grand ballroom. Joey Roberts took a brieak from his day job as executive director of the Children’s Museum of St. Tammany and deejayed some high energy music, while Junior League volunteers escorted young women through dress selection and then to the fitting area where ultimate choices were made. Project Prom is the brainchild of Skarlette Roa, a longtime Junior League member. Back in 2006 when she realized there were no such opportunities for young women who lacked finances or guidance in choosing formal attire, Roa loaded her two babies, only a year apart, into the car and set out looking for donations of prom dresses. She visited bridal shops for new dresses and solicited donations of gently used ball gowns from league members, friends and relatives. Donations followed The Junior League of Greater from sponsors Covington offers a large array that provided dresses in hardof boutonniere supplies. to-find sizes to accommodate more participants. Next came the distribution of flyers to schools and businesses. In the beginning, Covington High was the first to partner with the event. Now all St. Tammany high schools, along with those in Tangipahoa and Washington parishes, receive flyers and registration forms. Participants are also able to register electronically on the league’s social media platforms. Registration is open to everyone, with no income designation, to attend the event and receive a free prom dress, shoes, and accessories. The first Project Prom event was in 2007, and next year will be the 20th anniversary. Samantha Ronquille, the 2026 event coordinator, created a beautiful and memorable experience for the participants. From the elegance of the venue to the presentation of the dresses, shoes, and the pearl jewelry sets each girl received, there was no question of the effort put forth by Ronquille and her team to make each girl feel special, beautiful and empowered. Devin Gaudet, Gabrielle’s mom, said she and her daugher were “blown away” when they walked in the door of the Greenwood for Project Prom. “I’m a single mom,” Gaudet said, watching her daughter browse through dresses. “I do construction work. I’m not the shopping type. This was much more than we expected.” Ashlyn Caillouet, mother of six girls, was there with daughters Ava, 18, and Delaney, 17. She said they arrived with no expectations and were overwhelmed. They learned about the day on Facebook. “We felt so welcomed. They seemed so excited to help us find dresses,” Delaney said.

Slidell’s Jaelynn Elliott (1) drives to the goal as Zachary’s Ayja Walker (12) defends during the LHSAA girls Division I nonselect championship basketball game in Hammond on March 7.

Slidell’s state championship bid comes up just short against Zachary BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer

HAMMOND — Zachary senior guard Ava Raymond proved to be just a little too much for Slidell to handle, but the Tigers made the defending state champions work for it. Second-seeded Slidell took its ﬁrst lead at 13-11 on Jaelynn Elliott’s layup off a turnover with 6:28 left in the second quarter. The Tigers maintained that advantage until Zachary’s Marcia Robinson hit a free throw to tie the game at 51 with 27.8 seconds left. A wild basketball season was about to come down to less than 30 seconds. After Slidell junior Cianni Williams hit one of two free throws, Raymond drove the length of the court and hit a ﬂoater in the lane to give the top-seeded Broncos a dramatic 53-52 victory during the Division I nonselect state championship

game at Southeastern’s University Center on March 7. “We came out prepared and ready to play,” Slidell coach Kristin Twillie said. “I was a little concerned that we might have some nerves, but I felt like they were very mature and handled the pressure well, especially early. They can play with anybody. We might win the next one, if we played head-to-head again.” The Broncos (31-3) led for just four minutes and 16 seconds, but most importantly, they led for the final eight seconds as Slidell experienced a heartbreaking defeat in its first state championship appearance. Raymond won Most Outstanding Player honors after scoring 27 points on 13of-22 shooting with nine rebounds and five steals. Slidell sophomore Madyson Parker led the Tigers with 21 points on 9-of-17 shooting with eight rebounds. Elliott finished with 13 points and eight rebounds, as

Slidell shortened its rotation to just six players. “I’m very proud of us,” Parker said. “Despite losing tonight, I think that everybody gave it their all, and I’m very happy about that. Overall, I think we did a great job.” The Tigers shot just 19% in the ﬁrst quarter, but they leaned on their defense and trailed only 10-8 after eight minutes. Defense quickly became the theme of the game. After a Payton Rowbatham 3-pointer tied the score at 11, the Tigers took the lead on Elliott’s layup. The advantage grew to 10 points before the Broncos cut it to 25-20 at the halftime buzzer. Slidell forced 10 ﬁrst-half turnovers and held Zachary to just 36% shooting. The Tigers roared out to a 7-2 run during the third to restore their 10-point lead. Then a timeout changed the game,

The senior is 100% correct. This Slidell girls’ basketball team is special. Let me count the ways. The group won 30 games — a school record. They claimed an undefeated district crown. And most importantly, they put the program on the map in historic fashion. “It’s been a lot of work, a lot of hours, but we’ve had a lot of great kids come through to help us get here,” Twillie said. “A few years ago, we were the 27 seed and knocked off No. 6 Denham Springs, and that’s been a back-andforth battle since. That group set a precedent. Ever since then, we have just kept building. Our goal every year is to do better than we did before, so this group has set the bar incredibly high.” That Denham Springs upset came in the ﬁrst round of the 2023 playoffs. The Yellowjackets knocked the Tigers out of

STANDARD SETTERS

HAMMOND — The emotions were still raw for Slidell guard Jaelynn Elliott. The senior had just left everything on the court as the Tigers fell by a single point to defending state champion Zachary in the final game of the 2025-26 girls’ basketball season. “I’m proud of each one of us for fighting,” she Joseph said, before pausing for a moment to collect her Halm emotions. Slidell seventh-year coach Kristin Twillie looked over at one of her team’s two seniors and gave her a calming rub on the shoulder before continuing. “I mean, at the end of the day, all of us are winners. We definitely deserve to be where we are now, so I’m very proud of each one of us,” Elliott continued.

Fontainebleau freshman pitcher Blake Blomkalns made his first varsity start on March 3. And what a debut it was. The youngster tossed 87 pitches, including 57 strikes, as he struck out eight in five innings as the Bulldogs earned a 3-2 home win over Hannan. “This is the absolute best thing ever,” Blomkalns said. “I was definitely nervous and anxious all night before the game and all game day when Coach Rickey (Noland) told me I would get my chance to start against Hannan. I was ecstatic but didn’t sleep much thinking about the opportunity.” What made his first varsity victory even more special is that his older brother, senior Erik Blomkalns, was behind the plate. The younger Blomkalns allowed two runs on six hits with two walks. “Blake was super nervous before the game and was shaking on the mound when we took the field. He worked fast and found a rhythm, throwing strikes with a nasty slider and blowing his fastball by the hitters,” Erik said.

the postseason in the second round the following two seasons, but this year was different. Slidell beat Denham Springs by 18 points in the quarterfinals to advance to Marsh Madness for the first time in school history. It took overtime, but the Tigers survived the semifinals with a 64-60 win over Prairieville in a battle of first-time semifinalists. “They are a great group of kids, and they get along really well,” Twillie said. “They are a fun group to be around. I think they created a really good bond with each other and set the standard for future players.” That standard was on full display in the state championship game. Zachary came into the game with an average margin of victory of 30 points in three postseason contests. The defending

Covington centerfielder Mia Long scored three times during a 12-2 win over Fontainebleau on March 5.

Covington dominates Fontainebleau, 12-2

BY DAVE WOODALL Contributing writer

The Covington softball team used its pitching and defense to produce a dominating 12-2 mercy-ruleshorten victory over Fontainebleau on March 5. Lions’ pitcher Baleigh Dillon was in control in the circle limiting the Bulldogs to only four hits and two runs on the night. “I knew that their leadoff hitter was really good,” said Dillon. “I had my nerves built up, and I took a big breath and got the strikeout to lead off the inning. Over time I had some ups and downs. I walked

Northshore uses 12 walks to knock off Lakeshore, 8-2 BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer

Hannan junior Paul Hoyt knocks down one of his five 3-pointers during a 68-45 win over David Thibodaux on March 3.

Hannan surges past David Thibodaux, 68-45 shot 57% (27 of 47) from the ﬁeld. The home Hawks fall to Madison Prep team was even more efﬁcient inside the arc, going 19 of 29 (66%). in quarterfinals

BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer

Hannan junior Paul Hoyt is not shy about shooting the basketball. “If I’m open, I’m shooting it,” Hoyt said. “I trust my shot and my teammates.” It was easy to see why as Hoyt hit five 3-pointers, and the eighth-seeded Hawks pulled away in the fourth quarter for a 68-45 Division II select second-round playoff victory over ninth-seeded David Thibodaux on March 3. “We trust everyone on this team to shoot it if they’re open,” Hannan coach Errol Gauff said. “We want open guys to shoot the ball, and (Hoyt) was open and shot it.” The defending state champion Hawks led wire-to-wire, but the Bulldogs cut the lead to 41-35 on a pair of free throws by Kortlan Williams with 6:13 left. Hannan responded with a 14-6 run over the next three minutes to turn a tight game into a comfortable victory. Hoyt, who finished with 21 points on 5-of-7 shooting from beyond the arc, accounted for 10 points during the pivotal run. “We finally got consecutive stops defensively,” Gauff said. “We were able to play a little faster, and to do that, you have to get stops and rebounds. David Thibodaux played hard as heck. They made some one-on-one moves and shots that were extremely tough. I thought our guys did a good job defensively throughout the game.” The Bulldogs (23-9) never threatened again as both teams emptied their benches in the final minutes before Hannan junior Gabe Timmons put the exclamation point on the victory with a dunk in the final seconds. “We just came out with more energy and teamwork to win it,” said Hannan junior Tre Jackson, who finished with eight rebounds. “That really helped us pull away at the end. This win is a good confidence booster. You just want to keep advancing in the playoffs. We did that tonight, and we’re excited for the next round.” Sophomore Jay Dantzler finished with 12 points and five rebounds, while Timmons had 10 points. The Hawks forced 17 turnovers and

Gauff said he was proud of his team’s effort against a physical opponent. “I told them that, guys, it was good enough, so enjoy it, celebrate it, and we’ll talk tomorrow,” Gauff said. “I thought the defensive effort and energy were really good. Now, we’ll focus on our next opponent.” Hannan opened the game on a 6-0 run that turned into an 18-8 lead after one quarter. The Hawks continued their efficient shooting (60% in the first half) en route to a 30-18 halftime lead. The Bulldogs dominated the boards in the third quarter as the lead shrank to 3930 before the home team pulled away in the fourth quarter. The Hawks state title defense ended in the quarterfinals as Hannan struggled out of the gate, but rallied to force top-seeded Madison Prep to pull away late for a 62-51 victory. “We got off to a very uncharacteristically poor start,” Gauff said. “They jumped on us. We turned the ball over. It just wasn’t a good start. At one point, it was 15-2. We chipped away in the second quarter. The kids played well after the first quarter in many aspects, but the first quarter was definitely a disappointment, and that’s on me.” Hannan trailed 21-5 after one quarter but cut the deficit to eight points by halftime. The visitors held the Chargers to just six thirdquarter points, whittling the advantage to 4139 after three quarters. The Hawks took a one-point lead in the fourth quarter, but the Chargers (31-4) responded as Elijah Garner hit a 3-pointer to regain the lead, and the home team never looked back. Garner recorded a game-high 21 points, while senior Landon Epps had 10 points. For Hannan (18-12), Jay Danztler finished with 14 points, while junior Kobe Dantzler had 10. Hoyt chipped in nine points. The Chargers went 7 for 8 from the freethrow line in the fourth quarter and finished 15 of 18 for the game. Hannan struggled from the line, going 4 of 11. “They were just really good from the freethrow line, and we struggled,” Gauff said. “It was just one of those things, unfortunately for us. But I’m so proud of the way our players fought until the end. We battled tonight, but they just made a few more plays.”

Northshore pitcher Connor Smith had noticed something different about his swing lately. The senior had been pulling the ball more than usual, so he went to work in the cage. It paid off. Smith’s two-run triple to right center in the second inning helped the Panthers earn an 8-2 nondistrict victory at Lakeshore on March 6. The bounce-back win came in Game 2 of a three-game series against the Titans. The Panthers dropped the first game 3-1 the night before. “Last night, the game kind of got away from us,” Smith said. “We talked about it last night and discussed what we needed to do to be successful and not snowball the wrong way. Today, I think we did a good job of swinging the bats, pitching and playing good defense.” Smith finished 2 for 5 with a double, a triple and two RBIs. He was also effective on the mound, allowing just one unearned run on five hits and two walks in six innings. He struck out six in 90 pitches. “He’s the guy that we are going to turn to get to where we need to be,” Northshore coach Jay Hodges said. “He pitched well again and got a couple of big hits for us.” The Panthers (10-5) also took advantage of 12 walks and four hit batters. Those free passes were magnified in the second inning, which saw Northshore plate seven runs on four walks, three hit batters and three hits as 13 Panthers came to the plate. “Our identity is that if you’re going to make mistakes, we’re going to capitalize,” Smith said. “We’re not going to hit five home runs a game, but we’re going to play small ball, run the bags really well and take advantage of mistakes.” Six different Panthers drove in a run during the pivotal inning, but Lakeshore settled down, allowing just one seventhinning run the rest of the way. Northshore stranded 15 runners. “We had opportunities to end it a little bit earlier, and we just didn’t cash in. It’s good to see us score some runs after last night, but I would like to see a little more production when we have the chance,” Hodges said. “I would like to see a little more consistency, especially offensively. We can pitch it. The defense hasn’t been great, and the offense has been hit-or-miss. I’d just like to see a little consistency. We need to peak at the right time, and hopefully, that is the end of the year.” While Northshore lamented its missed

opportunities, Lakeshore coach Jacob Seward was pleased with the way his team battled, even if it took a couple of innings for the Titans to lock in. “We didn’t come out with the right intent,” Seward said. ”We have been competing the right way, but the second inning got out of hand. After that inning, we locked back in and competed the right way. If we keep competing the right way, the results will come.” The Titans (6-8) were riding a threegame win streak into Friday’s game, but the pitching staff’s wildest took the home team out of their game as the contest took nearly two hours and 30 minutes to complete. Mason Lomonaco led the offense with two hits, while J.J. Velthouse reached base three times. Starter Eli Galiano took the loss, allowing ﬁve runs on one hit and three walks in one-plus innings. Seward said Lakeshore’s tough schedule aims to get his team in the habit of playing really good teams and competing to beat them. “I want to see how we handle failure and how we handle success,” Seward said. “We have done a good job of handling failure. When we’ve failed, we’ve come back out the next day and played really hard. I want to see how we handle success. We have to learn how to do that.” LINESCORE NORTHSHORE – 070 000 1 – 8 | 8 | 2 LAKESHORE – 010 000 1 – 2 | 6 | 1

singled on a perfectly placed bunt toward third base, and Aiden Easley reached on an error. Conley drove in Easley on a force play at second, which eventually proved to be the winning run. Hannan (8-6) responded with two runs in the bottom of the fifth. Luke Holliday drew a 3-2 walk, followed by singles from Drew Cosentino and Brennan Lopez to load the bases. Jacob Goubert plated the first run with a groundout to second, and Hunter Lay, who went 3 for 4, drove in the second run. Blake worked out of the jam as he induced a strikeout and groundout to end the threat. Fontainebleau senior reliever Logan O’Hara battled control issues to earn the two-inning save, but the Hawks made things interesting in the seventh. Boatman drew a two-out walk, and Romero was hit by a pitch, putting runners at first and second. Then, the elder Blomkalns brother came up big defensively as O’Hara uncorked a pitch in the dirt that Erik blocked. The lead runner aggressively tried to advance to third, but Erik threw him out at third to secure his brother’s first career victory. Hannan’s first-year coach Cass Hargis said his Hawks couldn’t find a way to generate runs. “This is a tough loss,” he said. “We didn’t have many good at-bats. Give the young freshman credit; he did a good job and dictated the tempo. They reacted to situations while we didn’t.”

“I couldn’t be any prouder of him. I don’t know what could top him getting his firstever varsity win the first time out.” Bulldogs’ third-year coach Rickey Noland told Blake the night before the game that he would start after Fontainebleau returned from a 6-5 road victory over Loranger. “Blake made the most of his opportunity,” Noland said. “He threw confidently, and we obviously have confidence in him. We’re glad we made the decision to give him the ball, and he didn’t disappoint.” Blake, who went 2 for 2 with a double, a triple and two RBIs in the JV game, said having his brother as his battery mate was key to his varsity success. “My slider was my best pitch, and I located my fastball early in the count. After overcoming my initial nerves, I locked in and got into the zone. It really helped having my brother behind the plate,” Blake said. “I know he has confidence in me, and he helped make the difference by having my back.” The Bulldogs gave their starter a 2-0 cushion by scoring two runs off Hannan starter Chanse Boatman in the third inning.

Covington, Pearl River hoops both fall in second round

BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer

The Covington and Pearl River boys’ basketball teams both fell on the road in the second round on March 3. In Division I nonselect action, 16th-seeded Covington hung tough early before top-seeded Zachary used a big third-quarter run to pull away en route to a 81-60 victory. “We came out fast, and I knew we would be ready for the start,” Covington coach

Ryan Rushing said. “We got the lead up to 9 or 10 at one point. We were down by a bucket at halftime, so we felt pretty good. Lately, we have been a third-quarter team, but tonight, they blitzed us in the third quarter. We didn’t handle their press very well, and that was the difference.” The Lions (21-9) led 22-17 after one quarter but trailed 33-31 at halftime. Zachary outscored the Lions 24-9 in the third quarter to pull away as the defending state champions’ depth and size

helped them take control. Covington junior Jordan Bedford had a game-high 23 points, while Brennon Bell finished with 12. LeSean Jones added 10 points. Zachary had four players in both ﬁgures, led by Cambren Price with 16 points. Ethan Kimmie and Mason Newman had 15 points each, while Kristion Brooks finished with 11. “I’m proud of my guys because they fought,” Rushing said. “We took their best punches early, but they just

had a bigger knockout punch than we had.” In Division II nonselect, second-seeded Northwest jumped out to a quick 10-point first-quarter lead and never looked back en route to a 73-52 victory over 15th-seeded Pearl River. The Raiders opened the game with a 12-2 run, building a 44-23 halftime lead that forced the Rebels out of their preferred half-court game. “We just never could get over the hump after the

start,” Pearl River assistant coach Jack Hutchison said. “We missed some open looks from 3 and some baskets around the rim. They just stretched the lead out. We had to come out of the zone and play man in the third quarter. They’re the most athletic team we’ve played this year, so they’re tough to defend.” Pearl River junior Kaysen McGinnis had 24 points, while senior Brayden Hutchison ﬁnished with 17. The Rebels (20-14) only

graduate two seniors — Brayden Hutchison and Mason Hawkins — so the future looks bright after the team secured its first playoff win in school history in the first round. “The goal was to get past the first round of the playoffs and win that first playoff game, and we did that,” Jack Hutchison said. “You’re never happy with losing, but the kids played hard all night. We battled all night, but we just got beat by a better team tonight.”

Covington girls hold off Northlake at South Regional BY MIKE PERVEL Contributing writer

The team competition at the Louisiana High School Powerlifting Association Girls’ South Regional Championships came down to the wire on Feb. 28. Covington held off a serious challenge from Northlake Christian to defend its title. The host Lions finished with 93 points, just five points ahead of the defending Division IV state champion Wolverines. St. Tammany Parish schools took the top five spots, with Pope John Paul II (66 points), St. Scholastica (64), and Slidell (59) finishing third through fifth. “It was a very close team competition at the top, one of the most competitive in recent years,” Covington coach John Burford said. “We knew it would be a tight race, and it proved close with runner-up Northlake. Everybody had to give their best effort, and it was ours to lose if we didn’t execute.” Covington finished with three first-place winners — Vivienne Buchta at 105 pounds, Madeline Schieble at 132 and junior Mya Marigny at 165. Marigny excelled, being named the Best Lifter in the heavyweight division with a total of 1,060 pounds lifted. Marigny squatted 440,

It was special, and I’m really excited about beating my squat PR by 40 pounds.” Burford said Marigny still has room to grow as a second-year lifter. “Mya (Marigny) is a phe-

nomenal young lifter and is something special. She makes you stop and stare with how easily she ﬁnishes her lifts, especially when loading 400 pounds for her squat attempts. It’s impressive how easily she lifts that weight,” Burford said. Schieble won her weight class, squatting 320, benching 225 and deadlifting 330 pounds. “The competition was close, but I knew my bench

would help me get the points to place,” she said. “I felt mentally and physically off at ﬁrst, so I was somewhat surprised by my performance. It turned out really well, which was very positive for me.” Schieble, a Lions’ twosport athlete, also plays varsity baseball as a relief pitcher and outﬁelder. “Initially, I joined the powerlifting team to learn proper weightlifting technique to

improve my baseball ability. With success, I decided to stick with it, and I’m glad I did,” she said. Runner-up Northlake delivered three first-place winners — sophomore Molly Hutchinson (97), Jillian Grimley (114) and Emelia Dauterive (220). Emma DiGiovanni took third at 105, while Abigale Porter came in third at 181. “The girls did very well, and their strength comes from their lifting consistency,” Northlake coach Tom Beale said. “We always have a plan for what we want to do, and they executed that plan well. When they make mistakes, they can come back and fix them. “The South Regional is a wonderful test for the lifters facing such stiff competition while preparing for state. I love being around such talented athletes, and it’s a blessing to help them succeed.” Mandeville senior Sara Reffit (148) won her weight class and was named the Best Lifter in the lightweight division. She finished with lifts totaling 1,065 pounds. “I’m grateful God allows me to compete at such a high level, and I’m grateful for being named the Best Lifter,” Reffit said. “I wasn’t super fatigued, but I experienced some anxiety before

New defensive coordinator at Hannan is no stranger to the northshore

BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer

Hannan football has a new defensive coordinator, and he’s a familiar face. The Hawks have hired Jesuit defensive line coach Austin Bellamy to replace Don Kelley, who is headed to Franklinton to coach defensive backs. “I’m excited to join the program here,” Bellamy said. “I think Steve (Soper) has a great vision for this place. I think we’ll have a gritty football team that is hard-nosed and has high character. I think the best is yet to come.” This will be Bellamy’s second stint as a defensive coordinator at the high school level. He served in the same position for three seasons at Northshore (2021-23). The 31-year-old spent the past two seasons at Jesuit. “It was tough talking to my players at Jesuit today. I have nothing but great things to say about my experience there. This was just an opportunity to become a coordinator again in a great situation, a little closer to home,” Bellamy said. Bellamy “It’s tough to leave somewhere that has been so good to you. I’m excited for the future here. This will be my second stint as a DC at the varsity level, so I’ll use some of that experience to keep improving. I’ve just taken a little bit from each of my stops to learn and improve.” A 2012 Lakeshore graduate, Bellamy attended LSU, and his first coaching position was as a volunteer assistant at Redemptorist in Baton Rouge. After college, he coached at Catholic-Baton Rouge for five seasons, becoming the defensive line coach in 2019. He moved to Northshore two years later. Bellamy’s defenses steadily improved as the Panthers made the playoffs all three seasons and earned first-round wins in his final two seasons. During his first season at Northshore, the defense allowed 27.6 points per game. In 2022, the Panthers allowed 17.9 points per game, and that number dropped to 14.4 in 2023. Hannan coach Soper said the addition of Bellamy is a plus for a unit that showed marked improvement last season, as the Hawks allowed 25.9 points per game.

SIGNING DAY Northshore’s 10-person signing class had a little bit of everything BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer

Northshore’s 10-person spring signing class had a little bit of everything on Feb. 27. Six sports were represented, including volleyball teammates Emily Martin and Kalyssa Tolis, both of whom are headed to William Carey. “It was separate recruiting journeys, but we ended up at the same place,” Martin said. “Kalyssa and I have gone through high school and club together, so it just feels right that we go to college together.” The duo started playing together at the Slidell Youth Volleyball Basketball Association, and now they will be roommates in college. Martin is a two-time All-State selection who ﬁnished her senior season with 1,028 assists, 458 digs, 214 kills, 77 blocks and 20 aces. For her career, she amassed 4,192 assists, 1,631 digs and 626 kills. As a senior, Tolis recorded 508 digs, 367 kills, 40 aces and 13 blocks. Two track and ﬁeld athletes are headed to Nicholls State, as long and triple jumper Olivia Hardin will continue to compete in the sport that she started in the seventh grade. “I really loved the atmosphere over there,” Hardin said. “The coaches were really nice. The whole team was just really welcoming on my visit. Today a really big deal for me. I’m really excited for my future.” Cross-country runner Emelia Hope will also become a Colonel. “It was a tough process to choose a college, but when I went on my visit and met with those coaches, I immediately fell in love,” Hope said. “The coaches were so welcoming to me. I just realized it was the place for me because I could be me there and grow as a person.” She will also run the 1,600 meters

PJP II soccer duo announce destinations BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer

Pope John Paul II soccer standouts Sophia Ontimara, left, and Shealan Biniam signed to play at Maryville College and the Milwaukee School of Engineering on March 6.

It only seemed ﬁtting that Pope John Paul II soccer standouts Shealan Biniam and Sophia Ontimara would announce their college destinations together on March 6. The duo has known each other since they were 4, and they helped the Jaguars win a second state championship just over a week ago. “We’ve known each other for a long time, and (Biniam) would always ride with us on trips for travel ball, so we got a lot closer because of that,” Ontimara said. Biniam is headed to Division III Milwaukee College of Engineering, while Ontimara will play at Division III Maryville College in Maryville, Tennessee. “I went to an ID camp there, and when I met the players and coaches, I just really liked the team chemistry that they have,” Ontimara said. “I think they really fit my personality. I re-

ally liked the campus. I always wanted to live in Tennessee after I graduated. It has always been my dream to live there.” Ontimara played a key role as a central defender this season, finishing with 10 goals and two assists. “I always told myself that I wanted to play in college since I was little,” Ontimara said. “Actually being able to live it out is really big for me. Today is all because of my parents and coaches, because they have always supported me. Having that belief helped me chase my goal. I’m just really excited.” For Biniam, the Milwaukee College of Engineering’s location was an important factor. “I always wanted to live in a big city,” Biniam said. “The school is right in the heart of downtown. Everything is within walking distance, and I just love the city. I liked the coach, so it was just a great fit.” Shealan finished with 32 goals and 15 assists as a senior, and

she said signing to play in college was a big relief. “Soccer has always been a part of my life for as long as I can remember,” Biniam said. “My dad introduced me at ﬁrst, and then I grew to love it on my own. To have the ability to play while also building a life means a lot. It was hard for me to see a future for myself after high school because I didn’t know what everything would look like. To sit here and say that I’m going to Milwaukee, and I’m going to play soccer, means a lot.” PJP II coach Maureen “Meaux” Homburg, who has coached the duo since they were 11, said it was a fitting final act for their time at PJP II. “Those two are two peas in a pod,” Homburg said. “You can always ﬁnd them together, whether at Pope, in club or on the weekends. I’m just so proud of both of them, and all the hard work they have put in to get to this point. Today is a full-circle moment, and it’s very special.”

Running back Dominik Smith signed with Division III Belhaven University, while linebacker Brady Deharde is headed to Division III Millsaps College. After suffering a knee injury that derailed his junior season, Smith returned to account for over 1,500 yards rushing and 21 touchdowns last season. “I had a great four years here,” Smith said. “I got really close to the coaching staff here and formed a great bond with our team. I grew up watching us develop as a team and a program.” Smith added that he’s excited to start his next chapter.

Deharde, a 6-foot-2, 220-pound linebacker, said that Millsaps offered him a special opportunity to continue chasing his passion. “I’m really excited about the opportunity to play for the Millsaps College Majors,” said Deharde. “It is a blessing that not many people get to do this, and I plan on making the most of it. Our coaching staff really helped me over the years, and I wouldn’t have wanted to play

anywhere else.” Jaguars’ coach Philip Pigott said both signees left a lasting mark on the PJP II program. “It’s a great day for both of the boys,” said Pigott. “They were in the eighth grade when I first showed up, and thanks to hard work and dedication, they developed into outstanding players. These two were some of the players that we planned to build our team around. They both worked hard on and off the field to improve their skills and develop into not only fine athletes but fine men as well.”

Northshore falls to Zachary in the quarters BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer

Ninth-seeded Northshore pushed defending state champion Zachary to the brink before the top-seeded Broncos held on for a 61-58 Division I nonselect quarterfinal boys’ basketball victory on March 6. “It was what a quarterfinal is supposed to be,” Northshore coach Joshua Carlin said. “Two good teams going at it. Both teams had their moments. We were down 12 points heading to the fourth quarter, but our kids kept grinding. We cut it to three late, but they answered and held on.” The Panthers (22-9) trailed by five points at halftime. In the third quarter, the defending state champions

erupted for 22 points, building a 12-point lead heading into the ﬁnal quarter. Northshore showed poise as the Panthers cut the lead to three points with 70 seconds left, but that was as close as they would get. Zachary had 22 points off the bench, but the Panthers held a rebounding advantage in the game. Northshore turned the ball over 12 times compared to just four for Zachary (28-2). Carlin said those few extra possessions were key in a close game. “We played this same team two and a half months ago, and they beat us by 16, but it felt like 30,” Carlin said. “Tonight, we got to see the players’ growth and improvement over the course of the year.

We were able to compete. It’s still a little bittersweet. This group of seniors has been a very fun and coachable group. They left the program in a great place.” Northshore senior Tyrie Spencer had 14 points and seven rebounds, while freshman Braylon Kinsey ﬁnished with 14 points and six rebounds. Keith Collins Jr. recorded 11 rebounds, nine points and three blocks, while Roger Williams had 10 points and four assists. The Panthers showed their toughness in the second round as they played their 17th road game — this one at eighth-seeded St. Amant on March 3. Northshore had seen its lead whittled down to a single point in the third quarter, but the Panthers

Pendarvis, Louis

didn’t blink as they turned up their defensive pressure and made free throws down the stretch to close out a 70-55 victory. “We’ve been on the road a large majority of the season for this moment,” Carlin said. “Those guys were in this type of moment before, where we had chances to close games on the road, so the moment wasn’t too big for them. Our seniors played like seniors and finished the game well.” The Panthers also had balance offensively with three players in double figures. Senior Michael Ducre finished with 20 points and five rebounds, while Williams chipped in 16 points, four rebounds and two steals. Kinsey had 16 points and eight rebounds.

SLIDELL

Continued from page 1B as the Broncos switched to a half-court trap. Zachary forced 19 turnovers in the second half after the switch. “We had to go to something else,” Zachary coach Tami McClure said. “Our team’s very athletic and quick, and we needed to take advantage of that.” Despite the turnovers, Slidell shot 75% in the third quarter to hang on to a 3937 lead heading into the final period. The fourth quarter was more of the same: Slidell continued to shoot well, but the Broncos’ pressure led to turnovers that resulted in easy baskets. Zachary scored 24 points off turnovers and 44 points in the paint. The Tigers (30-2) outrebounded the Broncos 35 to 31, while Slidell shot 46.9% from the field compared to just 39.3% for the Broncos. Despite the defeat, Twillie said she was proud of her players for making school history with Slidell’s first semifinal and final appearances in the same season. “They will forever be the first team to do it, so they need to be proud that they have set the standard for future teams,” Twillie said. “Everyone will talk about them being the first ones to get here, so I think that is incredibly important.” Semifinals, (2) Slidell 64, (3) Prairieville 60, OT: It looked like Slidell’s historic run was about to come to an end. Junior center Trista Gallien fouled out with 3:33 left in regulation before Twillie called a timeout with Slidell trailing by 10 points. She reminded her team there was plenty of time left and talked about how Holy Savior Menard rallied from an 18-point deficit to knock off top-seeded Lafayette Christian on that same court two days ago. No lead is safe at LHSAA Marsh Madness. Junior Cianni Williams took those words to heart as she scored 19 of the Tigers’ final 24 points to rally Slidell to the school’s first semifinals victory on March 5. “We knew our big was going out, so from that point forward, we knew we had to rebound and everything else,” Williams said. “My team trusts in me, and I trust in them. If I didn’t step up, somebody was going to step up. We have each other’s backs in these types of situations. We all trust in each other to do something.”

Slidell had a chance to win in regulation as senior Payton Rowbatham made a leaping steal and fed the ball to Williams, who dished to Ducre, whose layup attempt rolled off the rim as the buzzer sounded. Elliott stepped up in overtime, but not before Williams drained a 3-pointer to tie the game at 58 with 2:18 left. Elliott tied the game again with a jumper with 53 seconds left. Then, she

made the biggest bucket in Slidell girls’ basketball history. Elliott took the inbound pass with 21 seconds remaining, dribbled up court and cut to her right against Prairieville’s Rhian Comery as Elliott knifed into the lane for the game-winning layup. “I knew to just go to the rack because she wasn’t going to foul me because she had four fouls,” Elliott said. “I heard my teammates said that she couldn’t guard me. All I had to do was drive to the paint and make my layup.” On the ensuing inbounds play, Rowbatham picked off a long pass, and Williams hit two free throws to cap a chaotic game.

Louis Pendarvis, retired band director and profes‐ sional trombone player, passed away peacefully in Slidell, Louisiana, on Febru‐ ary 20, 2026, at the age of 93. He is survived by his Paula Pen‐ daughters, darvis-Milham (Dan), Lisa Pendarvis (Charles Lin‐ dell); grandson, Carl Pen‐ darvis Arredondo IV; and beloved nieces, nephews, and cousins. He was pre‐ ceded in death by the love of his life and wife of 63 years, Lynn Pendarvis-Mur‐ phy; his parents, Evelyn Guichard Pendarvis and Clifton I. Pendarvis; and Mercedes Pen‐ sisters, darvis Lee, Blanche Pen‐ darvis Norton, and Celine DiMacco. His passion for music developed early in his childhood with a violin before he took up the trombone. He marched in the Warren Easton High School band with leg‐ endary classmate Pete Fountain and majored in music education at Loyola University. Following grad‐ uation, he was drafted into the U.S. Army, serving 18 months in Germany play‐ ing trombone. He received his Masters of Music Edu‐ cation degree from South‐ eastern Louisiana Univer‐ sity in Hammond. He began his career as a band director in the Orleans Parish Public Schools at Capdeau Junior High be‐ fore moving to Martin Behrman High School. He was the founding band di‐ rector at the new high that replaced school Behrman, O. Perry Walker. As band director, he was assigned to choose the school colors (orange and blue), mascot (Chargers), fight song and Alma Mater song. Beloved by students who called him “Prof,” he and Lynn developed life‐ long friendships with band members and leaders of the exceptional band par‐ ents club. Louis played trombone with the New Or‐ leans Symphony, the New Orleans Opera, and the Orleans Summer New Pops. He served on the Pops Board of Directors as treasurer. He was a mem‐ ber of the Val Barbera Or‐ chestra, Crescent City Big Band, and a fixture of Ok‐ toberfest bands featured at Deutsches Haus. Along with fellow Pops trombon‐ ists, Milton “Whitey” Bush and Robert “Bobby” Mor‐ gan, he founded Trom‐ Beaucoup and bones recorded the album Swing Low, a 1967 collection of jazz and Dixieland. When he wasn’t producing leg‐ endary halftime shows or leading his band through early morning drills, he en‐ joyed vegetable gardening, sailboat racing, fishing, camping, traveling, boiling seafood, flying his Cessna aircrafts, and sharing fun times and telling stories with friends old and new. He especially loved being Grandbubby to his grand‐ son, Carl. Auudubon Fu‐ neral Home were entrusted with the srvices.
