Is a sex offender living near you? By Mitch Sneed Outlook Editor
Does a sex offender live near you? It seems like a question that we should all know the answer to. But despite some of the toughest reporting laws in the country and easy access to sex-offender data via the Internet, most people simply don’t take the time to check.
The state feels so strongly, that it requires offenders to register every 90 days. An informal survey conducted by The Outlook showed that more people had looked at the names of those listed as Ashley Madison users than had visited the Tallapoosa County Sheriff’s Department Sex Offender Registry. There are 152 registered sex offenders in Tallapoosa County,

Interest expected to be heavy for soon-to-be-vacant House seat By Mitch Sneed Outlook Editor

The name of Dr. James Temple was the first to pop up when talk among our readers turned to someone who has a long record of serving and a dedicated career. He said he considers medicine a hobby rather than work.
For Dr. James Temple, practicing medicine is a labor of love By Corey Arwood Outlook Staff Writer
A local doctor considers his work in the community a labor of love, and at 88, he still practices four days a week in his clinic. On his off day, he makes rounds to nursing homes. Dr. James Temple said the only thing he does not do anymore is make house calls. “I love the city, I love practicing
according to the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency. That means that one in 270 residents in our county is a sex offender. Looking at the numbers city-by-city, the numbers are even more staggering. To help raise awareness, The Outlook will publish the names and photos of all the sex offenders in next weekend’s paper. If you want to be aware, pick up a copy of the Sept. 12 Outlook.
medicine,” Temple said. “That’s my hobby. I don’t golf, I don’t fish, I don’t hunt. I just practice medicine and go to Auburn football games.” He said that he opened Temple Medical Clinic of Alexander City in 1960 and has been a physician in the area for more than 55 years. He was born and raised in Sylacauga and his wife, Fay, who passed away in 2013, was from Camp Hill, so he said they just settled in between.
In 1950 he graduated from pharmacy school at Auburn and in 1957 he finished medical school at what is now UAB. “I just love people, and I like to see them get well … I like to solve their problems,” said Temple. As for his passion for Auburn University sports, especially football, Temple said, “There was a time that I went to every game, regardless.” See TEMPLE, Page 5
Mark Tuggle’s decision not to seek a third term as the District 81’s representative in the Alabama House has created a buzz about who will fill his shoes in 2018. Tuggle isn’t going anywhere for three years, so it’s still a little early to see hats flying into the ring. But that hasn’t kept people from talking. Tallapoosa County Republican Party head Denise Bates said that she had a good idea that Tuggle would not run for another term. She said that while no one has publicly announced intent to seek the seat, some have put out feelers. “I personally knew because we had talked and I fully understand and respect his position,” Bates said. “Since it became public, I’ve had a few people who have lightly talked with us and shown some interest. “That’s not surprising. We have a lot of fine people in this county as well as the others that make up District 81. It’s still a ways off, but I think you will see some very highly qualified people who will make the decision to seek the Republican nomination and step up to represent us well.” Tallapoosa County Probate Court Judge Leon Archer has hinted at interest in the post. Currently, under state law, because Archer will be 70 years old before his See TUGGLE, Page 5

Hear the name Alexander City Rescue Squad and you’d think it got a lot of government support. Not so. According to Ken Cowart, president of the Rescue Squad, the group, which has about 45 members, gets 90 percent of its support from the Lake Martin Area United Way. They get small amounts from the city and county governments. “And if you’re solicited for money and they
tell you it’s for the rescue squad, it’s not,” Cowart said. “We don’t solicit donations and we don’t do any fundraisers.” The formation of the rescue squad, Cowart said, goes back to a drowning in 1959. “We were established in 1959. The lake had a drowning and a bunch of concerned citizens got together That’s when we formed,” Cowart said.

DEAR ABBY: My beautiful 6-year-old granddaughter has clubfeet. Although she had several surgeries, her ongoing treatment requires her to wear her shoes on the opposite feet. Every time we go out somewhere, well-intentioned people seem compelled to let us know she has her shoes on wrong. My granddaughter told me it bothers her and she gets embarrassed when we must explain the reason, and truthfully, I don’t blame her. I worry about her self-esteem. Have you any suggestions as to what we could say to these people without giving out personal information? -NANNY IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR NANNY: If it were me, I would also assume that the person meant well and reply, “We’re already aware of that, thank you.” Period. DEAR ABBY: I’m in fifth grade and I’m wondering: Which do you prefer -- dogs or cats?
DEAR ABBY Advice
My friends and I often debate about this topic. -ANIMAL LOVER IN OAKLAND, CALIF. DEAR ANIMAL LOVER: I’m an animal lover, too, and I have met both dogs and cats that had wonderful personalities. However, when it comes to choosing between cats and dogs, I’m more of a dog person. My favorite breed is the German shepherd. DEAR ABBY: My sister moved in with me after my husband died. I thought it would be good for both of us, and we could go places together and share household chores. At the time, we were both working.

ignored. Was your sister always like this? If not, she needs to be examined by a doctor to determine if she’s depressed or having some other kind of mental problem. She should also be seen by a dentist if her oral hygiene is as poor as you say it is, while she still has teeth. The living arrangement the two of you have doesn’t appear to be healthy for either of you. Before this goes any further, consult an attorney for guidance. You may need help in getting her out after all this time -- or help finding other safe living arrangements for your sister if she’s unable or unwilling to do it for herself.

Obituaries Mrs. Jeanette Miller Wilson 1943-2015
When I discovered she would sleep all day on our days off and didn’t help with the housework at all, I was very disappointed. She would clean her room only when I got upset with her. Now she does almost nothing. She won’t clean her room and she sleeps for months without changing her sheets. I am sickened by the smell of her and her room. She hasn’t showered or brushed her teeth in almost two weeks, and it doesn’t look like she’s in any hurry to do so. We are both retired now and could enjoy going places together, but she would rather stay up all night and sleep all day. I am at my wits’ end. I have begged, threatened and shamed, but nothing works. I am a very clean person and like to have a clean house. Help! -- WANTS MY CLEAN HOUSE BACK DEAR WANTS: Changes in behavior like those you describe should not be

here is no better time than now with the Special Session coming to get something off your mind. A letter to the editor or a guest column published in The Outlook is the best way we know to say what’s on your mind and to reach people in the Lake Martin community. Here are some good reasons to speak out: If you would like to voice an opinion on a topic that impacts a number of residents. If you want to call attention to someone or some group that has achieved something noteworthy. If you want to thank someone who has gone of their way to help you. If you see a problem in our community and you’d like to suggest a solution. Whatever you have to say, we’d like to help you say it – for free. Just write us a letter or a guest column. We have a few rules designed to help get your thoughts published accurately. First, we require all letters be signed and include a phone number. We won’t publish your phone number, but we will call and confirm that the writer is genuine. In rare instances, we may publish a letter to the editor without including the writer’s name if the letter passes a strict three-pronged test: we have confirmed that the letter is legitimate, revealing the writers’ name would cause harm and publishing the letter is in the best interest of our community. The main difference between a letter to the editor and a guest column is the length. Letters are limited to about 250 words. Guest columns can be twice that length and include a photo of the writer. The best way to get a column or letter to us is to email it to editor@alexcityoutlook.com. We also accept letters on paper, delivered to our office at 548 Cherokee Road, Alexander City, or delivered by mail to Editor, The Outlook, P.O. Box 999, Alexander City, AL 35011. Your right to speak out as a citizen, and our right to publish your opinion, is protected by the First Amendment. Exercise your right.
lunch. First Tuesday is a new 12-month Chamber of Commerce promotion. Ann Rye, the President and CEO of the Alexander City Chamber of Commerce, said the promotion will be held on the first Tuesday of each month (hence the name) and it is designed to spur business activity. Here’s how it works: any business that outfits its employees with a Chamber Shop Local T-shirt and asks their employees to wear that shirt on the first Tuesday of the month gets a free color advertisement in The Outlook on the first Tuesday of the month. “They might want to advertise a shipment of new product, or advertise a meet and greet for local artists or just advertise their brand. We’re just trying to drive business to them,” Rye said. “We’ll make the advertisement, we’ll pay for the advertisement as a marketing awareness to remind people to shop local.” Rye said the chamber will push out the same advertising messages on social media and through the Chamber of Commerce app. The promotion started this Tuesday, and I wanted to go to Carlisle’s to support the campaign … and for a good lunch. Mary Lyman and I sat at a table next to the soda fountain and I ordered a ham and cheese sandwich. While I was sitting, I overheard the gals behind the counter mention soup.
KENNETH BOONE Publisher
Carlisle’s has excellent soup, but they stop making it during the hot summer months. Turns out they just started again this week (even though it was about 90 degrees outside) and Tuesday’s soup was Brunswick Stew. So I ordered a bowl and, dang, it was good. I mean good enough that I told Mary Lyman several times how good it was and she tired it and said the same thing. I also found out that this season, Monday will be Potato Soup, Wednesday will be Homemade Chili with Beans, Thursday will be a new Taco Soup and Friday is the day for Carlisle’s famous Chicken Vegetable Soup, according to Kayla Tapley, who described herself as the “soda fountain girl.” She said each soup is made fresh each morning and Saturday’s soup will be potluck this year. A second interesting food experience came while I was working through photos on my computer Thursday evening. I streamed in “The Right Time to Grow a Weed-Proof Lawn” on the “You Bet Your Garden” podcast, which a National Public Radio program hosted by Mark McGrath. I’ve picked up a number of good, practical gardening tips from the show in the past but I
hadn’t listened in a while, so I was basically checking in. Low and behold, the first gardening question of the show came from “Andy” from Equality, Alabama, asking how he can solve a bug problem on the eggplants he’s growing organically for Rob McDaniel at Springhouse Restaurant at Russell Crossroads. Of course, by now you can imagine I forgot all about the photos on my computer. McGrath said the problem was caused by flea beetles that leave “shotgun-like holes in the leaves of the eggplant.” And he suggested using row covers – basically sheets of fabric that let in sun and water but not bugs – over the young eggplants. Or if you’re going to get transplants, call and ask the grower to keep them in the greenhouse until they are eight to 10 weeks old so they’re larger before they are exposed to flea beetles. A couple of other ideas, dust the eggplants with wood ash or Diatomaceous Earth (DE for short) which will make the leaves gritty and keeps beetles away. Finally, if you’ve got beetles, try holding the plant in one hand and using the other hand to spray the plant with an intense stream of water to blast off the pests. “You’ve really got to give ‘em a whacking.” McGrath said. “Water is the best insecticide.” Boone is publisher of The Outlook.

here’s a great old song from the group Alabama called “40 Hour Week,” that could have been my Dad’s theme song. No, unlike a professional athlete or WWE wrestler who has entry music as they go to “work,” he wasn’t much for glitz or glamour. Instead, he just got up every day and went to work at the railroad. Like the song says, he worked “a 40-hour week for a livin,’ just to send it on down the line.” Dad grew up as a child of the Great Depression, knew the value of a dollar and had an unrivaled work ethic. He spent long days working hard on the farm, logging and working in saw mills, and then moved on to the steel mills of Chicago and finally became a railroad man. He worked with the Georgia Railroad, Family Lines and retired from CSX. He worked for the railroad for 37 years before retiring and never missed a day of work. I was actually shocked that he retired. Even the way it happened was a shock. He was eating his brown bag lunch of a bologna and cheese sandwich and peanut butter and crackers when a man from the railroad’s corporate office walked into
MITCH SNEED Editor
the breakroom at the rail yard where he worked. “Roy, you are 62 years old,” the man said, according to Dad’s account. “What would you say if I told you that you retire today, with full pension and insurance, just the same as if you waited until you were 65.” Dad never batted an eye. “I put the last four crackers back in the bag and told him I would finish it at home,” Dad said. “That was that and I was retired.” That story is true, but what he didn’t tell people is that he only stayed retired for about a month before he took a job as a maintenance man at an apartment complex. He loved to work. He taught me how to fish, fix things, talk to people with respect, how to laugh, love, tell a story and enjoy the little things in life. But if there is one thing I think my Dad gave me that I value most, it is his work ethic. He had the very best and he would never let hard
work stand in the way of him doing something the right way. He said if you can’t be the best, then just work harder and longer than the other guy. I feel fortunate to say that my daughters are the same way. They aren’t afraid of hard work. I use one of his sayings all the time: “I may not be the biggest, the strongest or the most talented, but you won’t find anyone who will outwork me.” That was the Roy Sneed way. For him, a hard day of work, or walking behind a mule, or building something made him feel productive. “I don’t love work, I just like feeling productive and being able to look back at the end of the day and know that I accomplished something other than holding down a recliner,” he would say. At the risk of sounding a lot like my Dad, today’s younger generation doesn’t seem to share my Dad’s love of labor. Working for 37 years without missing a day? Some can’t go 37 days without calling out. So in honor of Labor Day, I salute my Dad, Roy Sneed. Sneed is the editor of The Outlook.

Rescue
continued from page 1
Among the founding members were Robert Graves, for whom the Rescue Squad named the building it occupies, Cowart’s father and Cecil Bryant, known as “Sausage,” who will turn 100 years old in October. The Rescue Squad will fete Bryant with a party on Oct. 5. Cowart went through a long list of situations in which the Rescue Squad assists public safety agencies, including police, sheriff’s and fire departments: responding to and helping clear debris resulting from ice storms, tornadoes and other natural events; searching for missing persons, whether they be on land or in the water; searches for evidence and more. Cowart also pointed out that the rescue squad isn’t limited to response in the Alexander City area or Tallapoosa County. If asked, he said, they will respond, if able. He said the rescue squad’s services had been requested from agencies throughout Alabama and in Georgia. But local agencies don’t even have to ask. The rescue squad has what they call “automatic aid” agreements with public safety officials in Tallapoosa and Coosa counties, which means that, whenever they hear of something that they are able to help with, they’ll respond. In other instances, they will not respond unless asked by local public safety officials, Cowart said. “And we go in with an agreement that, if we’re needed at home, we’re going to go home. If it’s something like a weather situation where the same weather could affect us here, we wouldn’t even go.” One of the most memorable situations to which the rescue squad responded was the crash Blan Stewart’s Piper Archer aircraft on Lake Martin near Equality. Stewart, a 47-year-old insurance executive, disappeared in 1988 and prosecutors suspected he had faked his death to avoid a theft indictment and to collect $4 million in insur-
ance money. “I remember a man on the Cook Road in Equality said he heard the plane and he heard a boom and that his cows all moved up to the fence close to the road,” Cowart recalled. “He said that his cows hadn’t done that before. So we went and looked up around there for the plane.” Stewart’s rented plane containing his body was eventually found in November 1990 by divers hired by his wife, Robin. Two months earlier, the F.B.I. had obtained warrants charging him with unlawful flight after two people reported seeing him in the Virgin Islands in late November or early December 1989. Stewart’s remains were identified by dental records three days after it was found. “We do a lot of searches,” Cowart said. “That’s just one that stands out. We have divers who can search and we have sonar and we can also drag for bodies.” The Alex City Rescue Squad has several boats they use to assist in their efforts. Three of them are in need of new motors, with each of the existing motors being more than 25 years old. “That’s going to cost us about $18,000 total, but we really need to replace those motors,” said Cowart. This weekend, the Alexander City Rescue Squad will be staged at Wind Creek so that it can respond to emergencies on the water more quickly, if necessary. “That’s how we’re going to spend our Labor Day weekend,” Cowart said. The Lake Martin Area United Way needs your support to reach its campaign goal and help the 26 agencies it supports, including the Alexander City Rescue Squad. You can send your donation to Lake Martin Area United Way, P.O. Box 876, Alexander City, AL 35011 or give at their office at 17-B Main Street in Alexander City.

Russell Medical Center’s Susan Foy called Temple a local treasure. “Bless his heart, he is a kind man and probably plans to practice medicine until… he can’t,” Foy said. “Dr. Temple joined the RMC medical staff in 1960. He has treated generations of families. The only thing he loves more than medicine is Auburn football.”

next term as probate judge would begin. He is not eligible to run for relection barring passage of a local law that would permit him seeking reelection. While he is hoping that will happen and he can run for his current post again, he said he doesn’t think his days of service are over. “I enjoy serving the people of this area,” Archer said. “I know the 70-yearold age was put in for traditional judicial roles, but in several counties they have passed local laws regarding extending that age at the probate level. I don’t know if that will happen or not. “If not, I would have to think long and hard about the house seat. Like I said, Rep. Tuggle has represented us well and it would be some big shoes to fill, but I would love the opportunity to continue to serve and do what I can to help make our area all it can be in some capacity.” Tuggle won his initial term as the representative for District 81 in 2010. He defeated Shane Grimes in the Republican primary and then bested Democratic incumbent Betty Carol Graham, winning 56 percent of the vote to Graham’s 44 percent. Tuggle won reelection in 2014, easily defeating Democrat Dylan V. Oliver with 67 percent of the vote. In the 2015 legislative session, Tuggle served as chair of the State Government committee and was a member of the
Internal Affairs and Ways and Means Education committees. As far as Democratic Party possibilities, some names have been kicked around, but nothing is definite. Oliver said last week that he hasn’t decided if he will make another run, despite Tuggle’s recent announcement. “At this time I am not going to make a decision as to whether or not I will run again,” Oliver said.

Bates said that regardless of which candidates enter the race, an open seat is rare, and always creates interest. “It is rare these days for an incumbent to make the decision not to run,” Bates said. “So a chance to run for a house seat where there isn’t a person with the kind of clout that an incumbent normally carries will at least make a lot of people consider a run. It should be an interesting couple of years for sure.”

HHHH Look beyond someone’s behavior and consider what is happening within him or her. This person will be able to hide his or her feelings, but only for so long. Avoid bringing this matter up, as it could backÄre. Instead, try to address your own feelings. Tonight: Where there is music. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Recognize that spending some quality one-on-one time with a special someone is important. Disruption and/or some insecurity could throw your plans into chaos. You can’t keep covering up your feelings by staying nonreactive to others’ behavior. Tonight: Clear the air. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Your friends will remind you of playful children as they get into this holiday weekend. The activities they choose might be more adult, but the glee of being together can’t be hidden. Invitations keep coming forth. Which one you accept is up to you. Tonight: Join the fun. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You might be instrumental to someone’s festivities. You won’t mind pitching in behind the scenes or barbecuing the chicken. While in the midst of a happening and speaking to others, you will see a loved one in a new light. Clearly, this person misses you. Tonight: Togetherness works. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Whether you can be grounded enough for a conversation seems questionable, especially with someone who is serious-minded. Your playfulness and Åirtatiousness is likely to delight a special loved one. Make no commitments; keep it light. Tonight: Full of mischief. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You could be in a position where you will have a lot to handle. Responsibilities weigh heavily on your shoulders, but try to prevent every moment from being charged with tasks. Lighten up, and you will gain more perspective on what must be done. Tonight: At home.

Passions run high when interacting with a loved one, as this interaction is much more fulÄlling. Tonight: Full of surprises. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You could Änd the costs of this weekend to be too much for your taste. You will attempt to gain more control by eliminating an item or an event from your to-do list. Spend time closer to home and invite a friend or two over. Tonight: Allow a spontaneous happening to begin. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Your awareness of what needs to happen could change as a result of someone’s caring actions. Your need to follow plans as they were made easily could be tossed to the wind. You’ll want to be with a loved one who wants to do something else. Tonight: Share some news. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH You might want to be more aware of what someone else wants. You don’t seem to have as much energy as you would like. This person is of the same mind as you, so make today a lazy day at home. Make the most of the lack of demands. Tonight: Not to be found. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Passions runs high no matter which way you turn. Your magnetism draws others toward you. Your smile will make someone feel special, but recognize how easily others misread you. Your warmth might be interpreted as more. Tonight: Right in the middle of a happening. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Tension builds because of what you believe someone else expects from you. Perhaps a discussion is in order. You can’t ignore a strong feeling you have about a person whom you frequently encounter. Ask for more of what you want. Tonight: Remain sensitive. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Tribe bounces back for key region victory By Kevin Taylor The Wetumpka Herald
The grumbles were starting to get louder and louder in Wetumpka after the Indians dropped their first two games of the season in the Birmingham area. Those grumbles were silenced Friday night at Hohenberg Field where Wetumpka cruised to an easy 52-13 region victory over winless Russell County. The Indians (1-2) jumped out to a 35-0 lead with less than a minute to play in the opening half. The Warriors from Seale (0-3) had no answer for Wetumpka’s offense much less its defense. Tribe coach Tim Perry said Friday’s win was the shot of confidence his team and his coaching staff needed. “This was a big boost for our team and coaching staff after all the hard work that
was put in during the summer and the preseason,” he said. “A night like tonight where we were able to not just win but play a little more error free from the first two games was what we needed to see.” Offensively the Indians were able to distribute the ball to a number of players to contribute to such a lopsided win. Quarterback Keldon Washington rushed for one touchdown and threw for another. Meanwhile running backs Mack Caldwell and Kavosiey Smoke tacked on two rushing touchdowns each. “As an offensive staff we felt like we had several players who we could go to and get production out of. In the last two games we weren’t able to do that because of too many self-inflicted mistakes,” Perry said. “Fortunately we were able to distribute the ball well.” Washington said he was sat-
isfied with the win, but not how he played. “I could have done better, but don’t get me wrong, it’s good to have a win,” he said. Washington opened the scoring up in the first quarter on a 7-yard scamper before Smoke tacked on a 23-yard TD run. Following one of two Russell County interceptions thrown, Caldwell found paydirt from 7 yards out to give Wetumpka a 21-0 lead going into the second quarter. Caldwell scored again from 14 yards out before Washington found Williams from 18 yards out to build the lead to 35-0 with less than a minute before the half. The Indians did have one mental breakdown in the first half to allow the Warriors to avoid a shutout. “Our defense is very competitive, and one of the goals they have set is to finish a game with a shutout,” Perry

added. “We didn’t get it this time, but it was good to see how hard that young defense played tonight.” Will Digmon added a 36-yard field goal and Smoke scored his second TD of the night late in the third quarter to put the ball in the hands of the reserves.
While the win marks the Tribe’s first of the season, it also was a key region win. Perry said he’ll take a region win any day. “We want to build on it and build some momentum and ride it and carry the rest of the season,” he said. “If we play well and take

Beauregard 68, Dadeville 33
No. 4 Dadeville falls in shootout with Class 5A Beauregard By David Granger Outlook Staff Writer
The loss of Alabama-commitment quarterback ShawnDarius Jennings in the second quarter spelled doom Friday night for the Dadeville Tigers as the Beauregard Hornets used two early-third-quarter interceptions by his replacement, junior quarterback Tre Johnson, to pull away for a 68-33 win in their season opener here at Tiger Stadium. “You can’t explain this one,” said Dadeville head coach Richard White. “Mama said there would be days like this one. It was just a good old-fashioned butt-whipping what we took tonight. I have no explanation for it. We just didn’t show up defensively.” White said Jennings took a blow to the head and was held out the remainder of the game as a precaution. “It may turn out that he has a concussion or something and we’re not going to take a chance with that.” Dadeville, which entered the game ranked No. 4 in Class 4A, fell to 1-1 and plays host to Childersburg (1-2 after a 42-6 loss to Handley Friday night) next week. Beauregard (1-0) travels to Sylacauga (2-1 and a 49-0 winner over Marbury Friday night). Before he left the game, Jennings had been deadly accurate throwing the football, completing 13 of 14 for 143 yards and touchdown strikes of 40 yards to senior receiver Ty Stone and 18 yards to junior athlete Margarius Buchanan. Jennings also ran for a first-half touchdown. Beauregard took a 41-33 lead into halftime of what was an offensive free-for-all in the first half. The Hornets then set the tone for the second half on the first play from scrimmage of the third quarter when junior safety Zachary Feaster intercepted Johnson at the Dadeville 36. Six plays later, Beauregard quarterback Deshonquavious Wright scored from a yard out and Roberto Mendoza’s extra point gave the Hornets a 48-33 lead. On Dadeville’s second play from scrimmage following the ensuing kickoff, Johnson was picked off again, this time by senior cornerback Cedric Walker, who returned the pick to the Dadeville 37 yard line. Four plays later, sophomore running back Jacob Callaway went in from 17 yards out and Mendoza’s kick gave Beauregard a 55-33 lead. Callaway added another Beauregard touchdown late in the third quarter on a 16-yard run and still another on the second play of the fourth quarter from 62 yards out.

rushed for 15 times for 214 yards, including 206 in the first half yards and three first-half touchdowns, to lead the Hornets. Callaway added 110 yards on eight carries and his three touchdowns. “(Webb and Callaway) ran well and I’m proud of them, but a lot of their yards came off of great offensive line blocking,” said Rob Carter, head coach for Beauregard. “Our offensive line pretty much controlled that front and gave them the opportunities to hit holes. “Dadeville was matching us score for score until I noticed Jennings wasn’t in, but we did some adjusting and our defense stepped up in the second half and stopped them.” Beauregard took the opening kickoff and Dadeville forced a punt at the Tigers’ 31. It was the only time the Dadeville defense would stop Beauregard until the fourth quarter. Dadeville got on the board first to take a 7-0 lead when the Tigers drove 80 yards behind Jennings’ 6-for6 passing and the senior finally plowed over the goal

On its ensuing drive, Beauregard went 65 yards for a score, the big play coming on Malik Gibson’s 36-yard run on a fly sweep to the Dadeville 15. Three plays later, Callaway pounded in from the 1 and a Mendoza PAT gave Beauregard a 27-20 advantage. Dadeville’s next drive would be Jennings’ last. His final play of the night was the 18-yard scoring strike to Buchanan. Buchanan added the PAT and the game was knotted at 27-27. Beauregard quarterback Wright led the Hornets right back. With the ball at midfield after Kameron Baldwin’s nice kickoff return, Wright ran for 30 on 3rdand-10 and scored from 13 yards out to cap the six-play drive and give Beauregard a 34-27 lead. Both teams would add touchdowns before the half – Dadeville on a 13-yard run by Buchanan and Beauregard on a 20-yard scat from Webb, but Dadeville was never a threat again.
from three yards out with 5:48 left in the first. On the ensuing drive, Webb rushed for 53 yards on four carries and Callaway scored from the 2 to tie the game at 7-7. Jennings was 4-for-4 passing on Dadeville’s next drive, including the touchdown pass to Stone, but Buchanan’s PAT failed and the Tigers led 13-7. But Beauregard took the lead back quickly. After returning the kick to its own 33, Webb took the handoff on the first play from scrimmage, plunged up the middle, righted himself and scampered left and down the sideline for 67 yards and the score. Mendoza’s kick gave Beauregard a 14-13 lead. After Beauregard forced a Dadeville punt, Webb scored again – this time from 32 yards out – on the first play of the second quarter. A failed PAT left the Hornets with a 20-13 lead, but not for long. Dadeville speedster Isaiah Hicks muffed the Mendoza kickoff at his own eight, gathered it in and sped 92 yards for the Tiger score.

LAFAYETTE – If someone had had told you that the Reeltown Rebels would have a 22-point lead with 4:18 to play in the third quarter at LaFayette, most people wouldn’t have waited for the rest of the story. But the LaFayette Bulldogs didn’t let it end there. The Bulldogs rallied, scoring 22 unanswered points, including 16 in an 0:11 span as time was running out to beat the Rebels 40-34. All it took was an 8-yard touchdown pass from JaTarvious Whitlow that was tipped twice before falling into the hands of JaMarquez Boston-Gaines with 1:16 left. Then an onside kick that appeared to be touched too soon, was awarded to LaFayette giving the Bulldogs a shot. On the next play Whitlow hit BostonGaines for a 49-yard touchdown touching of a celebration in LaFayette. The Bulldogs had taken a 40-34 lead. And if that wasn’t enough, they had to pull off a goal-line stand, holding the Rebels on a fourth and goal at the 4-yardline to preserve the win. “That should tell you that you never quit,” LaFayette Coach James Lucas said. “Unbelievable.” Reeltown had taken a 34-12 lead on a 1-yard Zach Lyles touchdown run with 4:18 to play in the third quarter and LaFayette didn’t appear to be able to stop the Rebels. Reeltown’s Cody Martin carried the ball 40 times for 204 yards and three touchdowns. But after that score, the Rebels would eat up yardage, but they wouldn’t find the end zone again. But the breaks started coming for the
Bulldogs. LaFayette answered that score with a 13-play drive that Zarian Heard capped with a 3-yard touchdown run from the Wildcat formation. Reeltown took the ensuing kickoff and drive and kept the ball for almost eight minutes, before stalling at the Bulldogs 12 up 34-18 with 4:56 to play. On the second play after taking over on downs, Heard found Whitlow, who moved from quarterback to flanker and he picked his way to the sidelines and raced 93 yards for a touchdown to make it 34-24 with 4:41 to play. From the beginning, it was a strange night LaFayette coughed it up on the opening kickoff to give the Rebels the ball in great field position. It took the Rebels just five plays to cash in on the turnover. Takoreyon Edwards hit William Bell for 19 yards and then Cody Martin carried four straight times before scoring on a 2-yard run with 9:28 left in the first quarter. The kick failed, but the Rebels had a 6-0 lead. LaFayette responded with a 10-play, 85-yard drive to tie the score. Whitlow rolled right and found Boston-Gaines behind the cornerback for a 49-yard touchdown to tie it 6-6 with 4:06 left in the first period. The deadlock didn’t last long as Edwards hit Bell for a 46-yard touchdown on the ensuing series and after Zach Lyles 2-point conversion run the Rebels were up 14-6 with 1:01 left in the first quarter. After two scored by Martin on runs of 1 and 19 yards, the Rebels lead at half 26-12 after Whitlow scored on a two-yard scramble for the Bulldogs just before the break. LaFayette rolled up 388 yards total offense, while Reeltown amassed 421 yards in the game.

Late kick nets another loss for Mustangs By Jim Plott For Sports Extra
Coby Neenan punched through a 44-yard field goal with about three minutes left in the game to lift Northview to a 21-20 come-from-behind win over Stanhope Elmore Friday night. Neenan, who also kicked a 24-yard field to give the Cougars their only firsthalf points, sailed the ball slightly right, but had plenty of leg in the winning kick. Stanhope put up the first 13 points before Neenan’s first kick and the
Mustangs allowed several personal foul penalties to give Northview scoring opportunities. “We didn’t finish. It’s a four-quarter game,” said Mustangs Coach Jeff Foshee. “We let it slip away from us.” B.J. Smith had touchdown runs of 33 and 1 yard, and both scores came following Cougar turnovers. Deandre Meadows also had a touchdown for the Mustangs. Smith finished with 194 yards on 18 carries for the Mustangs who hoped a new scoreboard at Foshee-Henderson Stadium
would be in their favor at game’s end. Northview put a roughing the passer and personal foul penalty against the Mustangs to good use in the third quarter allowing Nick McCarthy to score on a 2-yard run and the Cougars were able to close the gap to 13-11 with a two-point run with 3:49 in the third. Stanhope took control of the game again following a Northview fumble when Kareem Jackson rambled 41 yards to set up Smith’s second touchdown. But a Stanhope fumble on a handoff that was recovered by Northview allowed
the Cougars to get back in the game. Eight plays in, Jeffrey Grier tossed a touchdown to Mason Wakefield on a reverse play to close the lead to 20-18. After Stanhope was stopped in four downs, the Cougars were able to maneuver close enough for Neenan’s foot. Stanhope battled back with 2:51 left in the game and advanced the ball to the 22-yard line of Northview, but the Mustangs were stopped after several passes went incomplete. The Mustangs (0-2) will travel to Dothan next week in another region game.

Benjamin Russell 26, Opelika 45
No. 4 Bulldogs score 28 unanswered to beat No. 8 Wildcats By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor
OPELIKA – The Benjamin Russell Wildcats held a 20-17 lead at halftime, but the Opelika Bulldogs road 28 unanswered points to a 45-26 win Friday at Bulldog Stadium. The No. 8 Wildcats opened the second half with the lead and the football, but a failed fourth-and-1 at the Opelika 47-yardline gave the No. 4 Bulldogs (2-0, 1-0 Class 6A-Region 3) the ball and the momentum. “We were moving the ball and then we got stopped on fourth down. And after that, I think the momentum changed a little bit,” said Danny Horn, head coach of Benjamin Russell (2-1, 0-1 Class 6A-Region 3). “We couldn’t stop them. They’ve got a good offense. They can throw and run. They were just better than we were.” The Bulldogs took over on downs and proceeded to cap off the short drive with a 10-yard touchdown from Josh Johnson with the Mark Slay extra point giving Opelika a 24-20 lead seven minutes into the third quarter. Opelika forced a three-and-out on the next Benjamin Russell possession, and finished off another short, 50-yard drive with a 15-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Jacob Bentley to Johnson to extend the lead to 31-20 after the PAT with 2:25 left in the third. The Wildcats gave the ball back after another three-and-out, and the Bulldogs added another score, this time on a 37-yard touchdown pass from Bentley to Jaleel Heard to make it 38-20 with 11:20 left in the fourth. Another stalled Wildcat drive resulted in another scoring drive for Opelika, as the Bulldogs’ final score of the game came on a 1-yard run up the gut by Johnson to make it 45-20 with 8:03 left in the game. Benjamin Russell’s Tyre Gray scored the final touchdown of the game on 20-yard scamper with 3:28 left, but the Wildcats’ 2-point conversion attempt failed. Opelika gained 459 yards of total offense, as Johnson had 119 yards on 22 carries with three touchdowns. Bentley went 24-of-40 passing for 324 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. Benjamin Russell gained 297 yards of total offense with 273 on the ground. Gray rushed for 132 yards on 14 carries with three touchdowns, while Benjamin Russell running back NeColby Maxwell had 127 yards on 25 carries and one touchdown. Horn said the Wildcats played well in the first half, and despite the loss, the

Wildcats are headed in the right direction. “Hopefully, we won’t play anybody as good as them the rest of the year. They’ve got a good team. I take my hat off to them,” Horn said. “First half, I thought we played well. We had a couple of opportunities there in the first half that we let slip away. They made a couple of third down conversions where we had them stopped, but overall we’ve just got to learn from our mistakes and get better. We got beat by a good football team, but I still think we’ve got a good football team.”
Opelika opened the scoring on the night with 40-yard field goal from Slay to make it 3-0 with 6:09 left in the opening quarter. The Wildcats responded two plays later, as Gray kept it on the read option and ran 71-yards for score, with the Sean Rape extra point making it a 7-3 with 5:25 left in the first. Opelika responded with a 3-yard run up the gut by Johnson to take a 10-7 lead with 2:13 left in the first, but the Wildcats countered with 42 seconds left in the quarter, as a 65-yard score by Maxwell made it 13-10
BRHS after the blocked PAT. Gray scored with second touchdown on a 4-yard run three minutes into the second to give BRHS a 20-10 lead. The final score of the first half came on a 10-yard run by Johnson. Benjamin Russell turned the ball over once on a Maxwell fumble, while Bentley was picked off by BRHS cornerback Rodney Carroll. Benjamin Russell will take the field again at home next Friday against Eufaula in a non-region contest.

Tigers tear through Talladega en route to victory By Griffin Pritchard The Tallassee Tribune
Things escalated quickly for the Tallassee High Tigers Friday night as they turned a 24-12 halftime lead into a 59-18 region victory over Talladega in front of the home crowd at J.E. “Hot” O’Brien Stadium. “We are coming around,” said Mike Battles, Jr., coach of the Tallassee High Tigers. “I think we are getting better each week. We are still making some mistakes and hopefully we will get that out of us. But (Talladega) came out ready to play. Our defense has played solid. I’m happy.” Tallassee took a 2-0 lead in the first quarter when an errant snap sent Talladega quarterback Ashton Duncan diving to the turf to keep the ball out of the clutches of the hometown Tigers. Tallassee’s 2-0 lead was negated one drive late when Duncan connected with Bruce Garrett on a swing pass to the sideline that he took the length of the field for the go-ahead score.
Tallassee recaptured the lead on the en suing drive. Kiwanis Woods and Teddy Brooks took turns shouldering the load and moving the ball downfield. Brooks capped the drive with a 25-yard touchdown run with 3:15 to go in the opening stanza. Talladeaga answered on the kickoff. Garrett fielded the kick cleanly inside the 30 and returned it 60-plus yards for the score with 7.3 to go in the period. Tallassee, after nearly fumbling away the opening kickoff, took the lead to start the second period. Brooks turned the corner on a toss sweep that turned into a 61-yard jaunt down field for the score. He punched in the two-point conversion to give Tallassee the 16-12 lead. Talladega - through a serious of unfortunate events at the hands of themselves and the opposing Tigers - found themselves in a fourth and long situation. They punted the ball only to recover it at the Tallassee 36. They were forced to punt again and, for a second time recovered a fumble on the return.
However, their drive was halted when Jamarcus Miller snatched a Duncan pass out of the sky and returned it 90-plus yards for the score. “Open field,” Miller said of the interception, “and I saw I had teammates out there blocking for me.” With the two-points converted, Tallassee took a 24-12 lead into the intermission. Miller’s pick swung the pendulum toward Tallassee. A second-half rampage locked it there for the rest of the night. The hometown Tigers wasted little time putting points on the board to start the third quarter. Casey Baynes punched it in from four yards out and then converted the two-point attempt to push the score to 32-12. Talladega fumbled the kickoff and Logan Goodman pounced on it. “You’re not going to beat a team like this turning the ball over,” said Talladega Coach Robert Herring. “That interception hurt us, we should have scored and made it a game. When we find a way to lay down, we just quit. But we’ve got to
get out of that habit. That interception before the half broke our back.” Jake Burton connected with Rodricues Williams on the longest Tallassee pass of the season (29-yards). Woods capped the drive with a 3-yard dive into the end zone. Nolen Shipman added the point after moving the mark to 39-12 With less than a minute to go in the period and the ball buried in Talladega’s territory, the visitor’s punt of 11 yards set Tallassee up with an opportunity to score again. Will Peters called his own number and bullied his way through the defense and into the end zone for the 16-yard touchdown. Shipman added the point after and Tallassee’s lead moved to 46-12. Trent Cochran-Gill (25 yards) and Markevious Matthews (63 yards) earned varsity marks with touchdown runs making the score 59-12. Talladega, though, didn’t lay down. Duncan capped a drive with a short run into the end zone for the final score of the night.

Panthers outlast Generals in region play By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor
The Horseshoe Bend Generals kept it close, but made a few costly mistakes in Friday’s 33-26 loss to the Lanett Panthers in region play. Jason Franklin, head coach of Horseshoe Bend (0-2, Class 2A-Region 5), said he was proud to see some improvement from his team following a 33-7 season opening loss. He said the Generals played with great effort. “We played our butts off. We just didn’t capitalize a few times when we had some opportunities,” Franklin said. “But like I said, the guys played their butts off tonight, played with a lot of heart and got after it tonight. We made the improvements that we wanted to see from week one to week two. Hats off to Lanett, they made a few more plays than we did. That was the difference in the ball game.” Horseshoe Bend’s Drew Hill rushed for three touchdowns and caught another, as Braxton Walls threw the touchdown to Hill. While he was pleased with the improvements, Franklin said the Generals will go back to work and look to get better going into next week’s game.
“We’ve just got to capitalize when we get in the redzone. We missed two field goals and missed an extra point, and that’s the ball game there,” Franklin said. “We still had a few too many penalties, so we’re going to work to correct the penalties and just get better at what we’re doing.” Horseshoe Bend will take the field again Friday at home against LaFayette in a region contest and the home opener in New Site.

Wildcats truck Gators for 61-point blowout By Cory Diaz The Wetumpka Herald
Led by its stingy defense and five first half touchdowns from Nathan Rourke, Edgewood Academy shut out Glenwood, 61-0, at Charles P. Storrs Field Friday night. The win was Edgewood’s 61st straight win, extending the nation’s longest active high school winning streak. Sophomore middle linebacker Khalid Young paced the Wildcats with six tackles and a tackle-for-loss, as the Widcats held the Gators to 161 total yards, only
17 passing yards, and forced three fumbles. Senior nose tackle Austin Barnett had two tackles-for-loss While the defense halted the offensive attack, Rourke and company carved up Glenwood’s defense for 481 total yards. Junior wide receiver Jackson Tate was Rourke’s favorite target, catching seven pass for 174 yards and two touchdowns. Rourke finished the night 14-for-23 for 277 yards and five scores. The Wildcats opened the scoring with a Rourke-to-Tate connection from 50 yards for a touchdown at the 10:59 mark. Rourke scored two more touchdown,

Elmore County ransacks region rival Holtville By Cory Diaz The Wetumpka Herald
Imagine Panthers. Elmore County scored nearly every way imaginable as it ran away from its region rival Holtville, 53-22, Friday night at Boykin Field. For the game, the Panthers (2-0, 1-0) tallied eight touchdowns in five different ways, handing the Bulldogs (0-3, 0-1) its 13th consecutive loss. Senior wide receiver Kell Floyd led the ECHS variety show, taking a 77-yard screen pass from junior quarterback Will Venable for a score on the team’s third offensive play to open the scoring, and then later finding the end zone on a handoff and returning a Holtville fumble for a touchdown. “Coach (Norman Dean) said ‘go out, don’t show no mercy,’” Floyd said. “I was just looking for the ball whenever I could get it. “It’s a big victory for us. It’s a rivalry game, so we’re going to come out and handle business. We’re on top, 1-0 in the region. We got to keep moving on.”
The Bulldogs didn’t just lay down. After Floyd’s opening score, Holtville responded with a seven-play, 52-yard drive capped by a Deontrey Jackson touchdown run from 15 yards out. A missed PAT, kept HHS down, 7-6, as Elmore County added two scores in 24 seconds. Senior Neal Cook returned the ensuing kickoff return back 65 yards for a touchdown before senior safety Travis Rawls picked off a Reece Burbage pass and took it 40 yards to the house, as ECHS lead, 20-6, with 5:39 left in the first quarter. “We wanted to get off to a quick start because we wanted to be 1-0 in the region, and come out and get a big win,” Cook said. “We came out and did what we had to do. Took care of business.” Venable said the Panthers wanted to take the Bulldogs’ will from the outset, and the early scores allowed that to happen. “It has to kill it. Coach Dean told us in the locker room that they were going to come out, they wanted to whoop us,”
Venable said. “But we didn’t give them a chance to. We came out hot, we did our job. “It’s really not hard, honestly, because I’ve got a lot of faith in my O-line. I haven’t been sacked once this year yet. And then, with guys like Neal and Kell at receiver, it’s really easy. It’s not too hard to get back there, stay calm and do the right thing.” The turnover bug bit Holtville for the third straight week, as it had five first half turnovers. To open the second quarter, Floyd notched his second touchdown on the night with a 77-yard run. On just four offensive plays from scrimmage, the Panthers sported a 27-6 advantage. Offensively, Floyd ended the game with 174 total yards, while touching the ball four times. Venable and the Panthers closed out the first half, cashing in three HHS turnovers, with the signal caller collecting the next three scores, a 49-yard run, a 30-yard pass to Terrence Head and a 6-yard pass to Nathan Whorton. Floyd ended his night, scooping up a Jackson
fumble and scoring from 43 yards as ECHS now led 53-6 with 2:51 to go in the first half. As time expired, Burbage found Drew Nobles on a 41-yard Hail Mary on his lone completion of the game, making the score, 53-14, at intermission. For the night, Burbage gained 136 total yards, running for 55 and recorded a 40-yard reception. “When we do what we’re supposed to do, in terms of making the right reads and protecting the football, we move the football,” Holtville head coach Hunter Adams said. “We have it every game. Our problem is, when we have a mental lapse, allow a tackle-for-loss to put us behind the chains, or a turnover -- we had three turnovers tonight on runs that we over 10 yards. That should be positive plays, drive catalysts for us, but instead they’re drive killers. That’s self-inflicted losing.” Holtville’s Chandler Haynes scored the lone second half touchdown, punching it in from 1-yard out and added the 2-point conversion.

Cougars can’t recover from slow start By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor
The Central-Coosa Cougars fell behind early and could not recover, as they fell 56-42 on the road at Fultondale on Friday night. Barry Simmons, head coach of Central-Coosa (0-2, 0-1 Class 3A-Region 3), said the Cougars never gave up in Friday’s road loss. “We started slow because had some starters sitting out for disciplinary reasons. So, we got down early and could never recover,” Simmons said. “We fought the whole game and had a lot of big plays offensively. We put up 42 points, but came up short. It seemed like every time we got something good going, something bad would happen.” Tyius Evans scored three touchdowns for Coosa, while running back Rod Whetstone had two and receiver David McKinney had one score. “(Quarterback) Raymond Graham played an outstanding game. Tyius Evans played another
really good game offensively,” Simmons said. “Rod Whetstone had another big night for us. David McKinney had another big night for us as well.” With two games in the books in Simmons first year as coach of the Cougars, he said he is proud of the effort his team has been giving on the field. “The biggest thing is we did not quit in either game. Last week, we had the lead with three minutes left, thought we had an interception to seal the deal, but it was called a simultaneous catch,” Simmons said. “Tonight, we got behind, but we closed it to a two touchdown game at the beginning of the fourth quarter and had an opportunity. I’m real proud of their effort. I told them last week that we’re never going to accept losing. That’s not the standard we’re trying to set here, but I am proud of their effort and them not quitting.” Cliff Williams / Outlook File Photo Coosa will take the field again Friday at home against Midfield in Central-Coosa quarterback Raymond Graham (7) tries to elude Fayetteville defenders during last week’s game. a region contest.
