Children from 1 year old to 14fished Anchor Park’s banks forcatfish during the 32nd AnnualBob Watt Youth Fishing Rodeo.
The event, hosted by town ofFarragut, took place at AnchorPark in Farragut on May 14 andwas sponsored by the Watt fami-ly, Farragut resident CharleyBenziger and Tennessee WildlifeResource Agency, which stockedthe pond with about 600 poundsof catfish on Monday, May 9.
“It’s just a beautiful day, andthe kids are excited about fish-ing,” Stephanie Brown, Farragutresident, said. “[DaughterNellie-Kate, 2,] kept saying,‘Fish. Fish.”
“Do the fish know we are fish-ing for them?” HamzaMuhammed, a Farragut boy,asked. “Are they that smart?”
“I think it’s wonderful,” BettyWatt, widow of the late Bob Watt,after whom the event wasnamed, said. “It’s so special toour family.”
“This is just the highlight ofour year to do this,” Rachel WattDavid, Betty and the late BobWatt’s daughter, said.
“Bob was born and raised inFarragut, and he knew the area,”
Betty said. “He used to hunt andfish here.
“It used to be Farragut FishingRodeo, but when he was analderman in Farragut and leftoffice, [former] Mayor EddyFord renamed the event BobWatt Youth Fishing Rodeo,” Bettysaid.
David said her father was hon-ored and humbled the event wasrenamed after him.
Lauren Cox, Farragut SpecialEvent and Program coordinator,said 104 children attended thisyear and by 10 a.m., some hadcaught quite a few so far.
This year’s winners for thebiggest fish were Nevaeh Pray,girls 6 and under category;Xavier Truman, boys 6 andunder; Greysen Delph, girls 7 to9; Aiden Gaston, boys 7 to 9; KateGiancalone, girls 10 to 13; andBen Crutchfield, boys 10 to 13.
There was a tie, VictoriaKhomenko and JonathanGodderz for the most fishcaught, and Alyvia Dubay won forthe smallest fish, Cox said.
Volunteers handed out baitand fishing rods and reels tochildren who needed them, fixedfishing lines and got fish offhooks for weighing, she said.
“It’s pretty nice,” JonathanGoedderz, 9, of LaFollette, said.
“I like to fish.” “We saw the ad. My daughter
picked it up online,” JimGoedderz, Jonathan’s grandfa-ther and LaFollette resident,said. “It’s a chance to spend timetogether. He likes to fish and Ilike to fish.”
Dylan Kimble of Knoxvillebrought four poles for which tofish with his grandmother, JuliaStumpft of Clinton.
“Mama saw the poster inKnoxville,” Dylan said. “I like it. Ilike the sport, and I know how todo it.”
“I came to supervise the tour-nament champ,” Stumpft said.“In the past, he won the champi-onship.”
“We love it,” Caitlin Curtis,Farragut resident, said. “It’ssuch a great, cute event. We justmoved here last summer. Theydidn’t have anything like thiswhere we were from.”
Jennifer Roles, Lenoir Cityresident, said she brought herchildren, Kingston, 7, and EmeryRoles, to do some fishing.

Town, FBA discuss funding for FY 2016-17■ BEN POUNDS
bpounds@farragutpress.com
Farragut Business Alliancerequested $70,000 of Town fund-ing for next fiscal year.
David Purvis, FBA president,and Alderman Louise Povlin,FBA Board member, explainedtheir reasoning for the requestand the actions of FarragutBusiness Alliance at a Board ofMayor and Alderman WorkshopThursday, May 12, at Town Hall.
“FBA funding is not for thebusinesses. It’s for the Town,”Purvis said. “To be honest with
you, if I was not involved in FBA,my income would go up.”
Purvis said 68 percent of theTown’s budget came from SalesTax, yet the Town spends lessthan 1.64 percent of its totalbudget on economic develop-ment activities.
FBA sponsors several eventsand projects. Purvis presented abudget of the organization’s pro-posed expenses and income fornext fiscal year.
Under the proposed budget$61,226 would be for generalexpenses, $30,000 would go toShop Farragut, $2,500 would go
to Art in the Park, $27,500 wouldgo toward Farragut FoodFestival, $2,000 would go towardLight the Park and $4,000 wouldgo toward attending theInternational Council ofShopping Centers and attractingbusiness from it.
Purvis said total expenses forthe year would be $127,226. Purvispredicted a net gain of $2,774 forthe organization this year.
Purvis said about $45,000 outof the general expenses categorywas slated toward salaries. Thecategory also includes the FBAwebsite and storage facilities.
He said that amount forsalaries will come out of the totalbudget, not just the $70,000 herequested from the Town. Hesaid FBA had a goal to increasesponsorship dollars from othersources as well.
Separate from the workshop,Allison Sousa provided a budgetdetail via e-mail, which listed theamount for contract labor as$46,500.
Shop Farragut, which includesa mobile app and e-mail notifica-tion project, would receive$25,356 more under the pro-posed budget than last fiscal
year. The app includes links to abusiness directory, which issearchable for businesses bybusiness name or category. It haslinks to businesses’ social media,events and deals.
“We’re trying to expand it.We’re trying to get outside themarket, meaning outside of justFarragut and drive more trafficwith that. We’re trying to expandthe time frame we’re doing it aswell,” Purvis said.
Sponsorships would pay $5,500for events at shopping centers.

Thanks to recent decisions bythe town of Farragut Beer Board,Crossfit Farragut may now servebeer after yoga classes and theKroger Marketplace atBrooklawn may serve 4-ouncesamples of beer from local brew-eries on site.
Mary Ann “Molly” Stiles, storemanager of Kroger Marketplaceat 189 Brooklawn St. applied fora permit to have a growler sta-tion inside of that store. Theapplication is unrelated toKroger’s recent approval forwine sales, although wine wouldbe located nearby.
The bar would serve beer fromlocal breweries.
“Those beers typically are notpasteurized. They’re a little bitpricey at times, but they’re alsomade here very locally,” she said.She said customers could try andsee if they liked the beers fromthe different local breweries.The station would serve up totwo pints in total, but only with-
in the 12 seat serving area. TheBeer Board unanimouslyapproved a Class 2 on site permitfor Kroger’s growler area.
Crossfit’s beer yoga classeswill feature yoga routines fol-lowed by beer drinking.
“Beer and yoga has taken offin many other states,” ShanePoteat, co-owner of CrossfitFarragut, said.
“The example I can give you isprobably Echelon [Bicycles].That’s kind of the setup we’relooking at is just to provide abeer after a long hard, workout,”he said describing the ideabehind beer and yoga. The BeerBoard voted unanimously toapprove a Class 2 on-site permitfor the upcoming classes.
Crossfit Farragut’s will holdthe classes at their future loca-tion, 10803 Kingston Pike, whichthey have not yet opened.
“The facility that we have rightnow just does not support thesize or the occupancy we wouldhave with the yoga classes,” he

A letter to AubreyBurleson
Oh, Randy! How can you aban-don your firstborn?
The Farragut store was thebasis for your restaurant empire.Remember how hard you workedto open it, when some peoplesaid it would never succeedbecause “Farragut wasn’t readyfor that kind of restaurant?” How
you collapsed from exhaustiontrying to be sure to make it go,trying to be manager, server,waiter busboy and probably evendishwasher?
It’s not just that it’s our neigh-borhood restaurant, our comfortplace. The Farragut Aubrey’s isan institution in this Townbecause of your support ofschools and other organizations
— I used to love to read theplaques and certificates thathung on the wall on the way tothe rest rooms.
How will we do without ourplace after 24 years? Is there anyway you can change your mind?
Fondly, Mary Sue Younger
• I would encourage thetown of Farragut leadership toplease take a serious look atimplementing a Hotel/MotelTax. I just spent one night inAtlanta, Ga., and the State Tax$12.53, County Tax $8.95,Georgia State Hotel/Motel Fee$5. It would seem to me thatthe Town could implement thisand help stave off the talkabout Property Tax.

That’s it. The forum is openfor comments regarding any-thing you have on your mind —local politics, world affairs,sports, religion, communityaffairs, city-county unificationor anything else.
Purvis said these events wouldreplace the Red White and Bluesevent, which was dropped fromthe FBA event calendar during arecent Board meeting.
Farragut’s Economic Develop-ment Committee previouslyapproved the FBA Memorandumof Understanding proposal at itsmeeting Wednesday, May 4.
BOMA could vote on the FBAMOU at its meeting Thursday,June 9, according to Townadministrator David Smoak.
Carol Christofferson, presi-dent of Sweetbriar HomeownersAssociation, said she was
delighted to see homeownersassociations mentioned as part-ners for the FBA. She also saidaccountability was important.
“What are the results? Seventythousand dollars in the cosmos ofthings is not that much, but it iscertainly enough that the peopleof Farragut want to know thatwe’re actually having progresswith our Town’s future,” she said.
“I haven’t read it enough toreally make a comment,” shesaid following the workshop.
Povlin said Farragut/West KnoxChamber of Commerce could notdo FBA’s job because only 31 per-cent of its business members arelocated in Farragut.
“Extending the services the
FBA provides to businesses out-side of Farragut would not serveFarragut at all,” she said.
Purvis said, “People look to[FBA] as an events organization,but we’ve done so much morebehind the scenes … They onlysee the events, the fun stuff thatwe do, but that’s not what ourBoard’s here for. They’re all seri-ous about trying to help the eco-nomic condition of this commu-nity. They don’t really want to beparty planners. They want to beengaged in helping do the eco-nomic development.”
He said FBA works on drawingin businesses and consumersfrom elsewhere to come toFarragut.

said. He said Crossfit Farragutwould shut down its currentoffice. He said the relocation andthe new classes had “no concretedate yet.”
“We’re looking at probably the
middle of May transferring every-thing from the gym over to thatlocation,” he said. “We were hop-ing that immediately after weoccupied the facility, that onThursdays is when we would holdthe beer yoga. He said CrossfitFarragut would complete thenecessary training.
The Beer Board also unani-mously approved a new permitfor Fresh Market at 11535Kingston Pike to sell beer. Whileit already has one, a change inmanagement meant that theTown required them to get a newpermit.

Anthony DiFranco III, a 1998Farragut High School graduateand Karns resident, is bringinghis barbecue business to thegreater Farragut area.
DiFranco, owner of FullserviceBBQ, is converting the formerConocoPhillips gas station,located at the corner of KingstonPike and David Lane inKnoxville, into a barbecuerestaurant.
“After the plans and permitsare approved, it will take six toseven weeks of work before [thestore] opens, if nothing goeswrong,” he said.
The location will accommo-date drive-thru and picnic-styleservice for outdoor dining.
“We will have outdoor tablesunderneath the canopy,” Di-Franco said. “We will have seat-ing for about 55 to 60 [cus-tomers].”
The former gas station build-ing will house one big kitchen.
Fullservice BBQ will carrypulled pork, pulled chicken,smoked sausage and St. Louis-cut dry-rub ribs and all the fix-
ings to go with them. “We have some of the best beef
brisket in the country,” DiFrancosaid. “We cook barbecue correct-ly, so we have exclusive wood-fired smokers that don’t use gasor electricity. We produce ourown smokers in house.”
The David Lane locationmakes his third store.
“We’re making a trianglearound Knoxville, so, we havesouth, west and north, and theyare all 20 minutes away fromeach other,” he said.
DiFranco came up with theconcept for the restaurant in2008 and opened his first storein a gas station in Maryville in2009.
“That’s where the name[Fullservice] came from,” hesaid. “I’m a restaurateur. I wasrenting the location in Maryvillewith the intention of opening aburger restaurant. Due to con-struction issues with that prop-erty, I had to abandon the burgeridea and chose something Icould cook outside, so I taughtmyself how to cook barbecue.”
DiFranco opened his secondlocation at 104 Cedar Lane in2015. Now, he has chosen to add

Participants can build rainbarrels and learn about theirbenefits at Farragut’s RainBarrel Workshop.
In partnership with the WaterQuality Forum, town of Farragutwill host the workshop from 10a.m. to 12 p.m., Saturday, May21, in Farragut Town Hall.
“Rain barrels can serve reallymultiple functions,” Lori Saal,Farragut Stormwater coordina-tor, said. One function is waterconservation.
“They allow people to capturewater as it falls off of their roofand they can utilize it for what-ever purposes later, like irriga-tion of the garden they have. So,they’re saving water,” she said.
Another benefit of rain bar-rels is saving money.
“They’re saving money ontheir water bill in that they’renot using the public watersource and having to pay thatmoney for the same function of,perhaps, watering plants,” shesaid.
The workshop will teach par-ticipants about benefits of rain-water harvesting. On a morepractical level, Saal said partic-ipants also will learn how tobuild and install rain barrels tobring home.
Every participant will receivea 55-gallon rain barrel ready forinstallation. All necessary hard-ware, including the hose for a

She also wrote she knew itwas never too late to change herlife!
This woman had successfullyraised two happy sons and wor-rying about what her husbanddid and not focusing on whatshe was doing could very wellhave given him (in his cheatingmind) a good excuse for theaffairs.
She knew focusing on gettingher act together, could erasethat excuse and down the road,he'd wonder what happened.
When someone is unfaithfulit's his/her problem. It’s onlyOUR problem if we make it ours.
I remember going to my min-ister when my first husband wascaught having an affair (I hadthree little kids and they cameto the session with me because Icouldn’t get a babysitter) and hetold me that my job was to bethe best me I could be, not formy husband but for me.
Back when I was frumpy, sus-picious, overweight and keepinga totally cluttered and dirtyhome, I knew what I needed todo. I knew disorganizationaffected every aspect of my life;my health, relationships,finances, appearance, recre-ation, hospitality etc. but I gottemporarily stuck in self-pity.
How can you eat a whole ele-phant?
When I discovered that Icould be organized with a sim-
ple system, I let go of the visionof a mountain to climb.
In Sidetracked Home Execut-ives: from pigpen to paradise mysister and I wrote, “You can onlyeat an elephant one bite at atime!”
Not thatwe were in-to eatingelephants,we just ini-tially sawour “prob-lem” assomethingso much bi-gger thanwe were.When youbreak anyp r o b l e mdown intolittle bitesyou see that you are bigger thanthe problem and you can do any-thing in baby bites! Start withthe intention to get organizedjust enough to please you.
The best revenge is having ahappy, successful life. My adultchildren have told me that theirfather would never be able tocome to my home for any familyget-together because he’d be toojealous of my success and happi-ness.
My adult self isn’t intorevenge, but there is a part ofme that relishes that thought.Maybe it’s the good feeling weget when we know, “What goesaround, comes around.”
My prayer for you, if you havea story similar to the woman Iwrote about in my story, is thatyou'll find yourself (if you are

KNOXVILLE — FarragutHigh School baseball coach MattBuckner wasn’t quite sure if histeam’s latest victory would scoremany style points and frankly, hedidn’t really care.
“We won the game and that’sall that counts this time of year,”Buckner said after the Admiralsclaimed a 3-0 victory over Karnsin the Region 2-AAA Semifinal atKarns High’s Coach DwightSmith Field Monday night.“We won and now we’re one win
away from going to the StateTournament.
“At Farragut, we take thosethings for granted sometimesbecause we get there so much.But if we win, we’ll get to go tothe state tournament.
Farragut (35-6) hosted Powellin the regional championshipgame Wednesday night at 6:30 atJohn Heatherly Field at TheBallpark at Farragut.
Both the Panthers (22-12) and the Admirals advanced tothe state sectional round onSaturday by virtue of theirrespective victories Mondaynight. Powell also won on theroad in the opening round of theregion tournament when it out-lasted defending Class AAAState Champion Hardin ValleyAcademy 2-1 in nine innings.
F H Ss c o r e dt h r e eunearnedruns inthe top of the first inning andthat would be all of the offensethat the Admirals needed thanksto a stellar performance fromsenior starting pitcher DylanPacifico.
“I got a lead early and thatreally help,” said Pacifico, whohurled a complete game andkept the Beavers (30-9) at baythroughout the contest. “Nothingis easy this time of the year andthey’re a good hitting team.
“I just let my defense do thework against the heart of their[batting] order.”
Karns catcher Tucker Patewas one of the county’s top hit-ters in 2016 and cleanup manChris Norton and No. 5 hitterCarson Roush are among thearea’s top run produces.
But on this night, that triomanaged to go just 1-for-6against Pacifico, who yieldedjust two hits and two walksagainst Karns, the District 3-AAAChampion. He finished the con-test with eight strikeouts andended the game when he gotJosh Fielden to rap into a doubleplay.
“He was special tonight,”Buckner said of Pacifico. “Thisisn’t his first rodeo. He won inthe district tournament this yearand he won two games in thestate tournament last year.
“Tonight, he was all that Idreamed that he would be.”
Pacifico and Admirals got anearly lead when Farragut scored
three runs in the top of the firstinning.
Senior center fielder ColeMorgan singled to lead off thegame. Beavers sophomorestarter Jared Culp struck outDuncan Pence before JakeHagenow singled to put runnerson first and second. JustenFreeman then reached on afielder’s choice as Hagenowmade the second out beforeCulp’s defense let him down.
Morgan scored the first run ofthe game when Carmelo Veneroreached on an error. Freshmanfirst baseman Parker Noland fol-lowed and reached on an error.Karns’ second defensive miscueof the inning allowed bothFreeman and Venero to comehome to make the score 3-0.
Morgan finished with threehits for Farragut, which has hadits share of trouble scoring runsduring the postseason.

The Bulldogs, which won theregular-season title, hit the goal-posts or the crossbar five times ina 1-0 victory over second-seededMaryville at Bruce Allender Field.

frustrated but we kept going at it.“That shows the maturity of our
team. We could’ve hung our headsand given up. But our kids didn’t.”

“We seem to always get run-

HARDIN VALLEY — HardinValley won’t get the chance todefend its 2015 Class AAA StateChampionship.
The Hawks saw its season cometo an abrupt end in Mondaynight’s Region 2-AAA Semifinals.HVA came up on the short end ofa 2-1 nine-inning contest againstPowell at home.
“It’s tough,” Hawks coach JoeMichalskisaid. “It’st o u g hb e c a u s eany time that you get to thispoint, you can almost taste itbecause you’re two wins awayfrom going to the StateTournament.
“We came into the seasonwanting to win a state champi-onship and we went after it.”
Powell, the District 3-AAA run-ner-up, took a 1-0 lead in the topof the first when pitcher PeytonAlford’s sacrifice fly platedCameron Payne with the game’sfirst run.
The Hawks (27-8-1) tied thegame with a run in the bottom ofthe opening frame. Dylan Harrisled off with a single and laterscored when senior TylerThompson (an Austin Peaysignee) tripled.
“Dylan legged out an infield hitand he scored when Tylertripled,” Michalski said. “Our kidsreally competed hard. But Powellwas really competing hard too.
“This is a disappointmentbecause we really thought thatwe would win this game. This wasone of the best baseball gamesthat I’ve ever seen. It’s a gamethat I will never forget. It stinksto come out on the wrong end ofa game like this. We thought wewould win. But Powell had thesame kind of attitude. These
things just happen sometimes.”Hardin Valley sophomore
starter Ryder Green (a Kentuckycommitment) battled Alfordpitch for pitch but left the gamewith one out in the top of the sev-enth. Green surrendered anunearned run, five hits and threewalks before giving way toThompson, who went 2 2/3innings. He gave up a hit, anunearned run and three walks.He struck out three Panthers.
Powell (22-14) scored theeventual winning run in the topof the ninth. Payne singled tolead off the frame and stole sec-ond. He advanced to third whenThompson uncorked a wild pitch.
Payne, who stole two bases andscored both of the Panthers’runs, came home with the go-ahead run when Noah Malicoatsingled.
Hardin Valley had two runnerson in the ninth but Alford
escaped damage.“My guys battled,” Michalski
said. “Ryder pitched well and sodid Tyler. But Peyton did a greatjob.

MARYVILLE — Farragut HighSchool boys soccer coach RayDover saw his first season cometo an end on Wednesday, May 11,in the District 4-AAA semifinals.
The Admirals dropped a 2-1decision to Maryville at JohnSevier Elementary School butDover and his squad aren’tdwelling on the past. The coach,who completed his first year, andhis team have already turned thecalendar to next year.
“The 2017 season began at 8:47p.m. on May 11,” Dover said. “Itbegan when that final whistle
sounded in Maryville.“We’re going to take the kids to
camp this summer for the firsttime and we’re going to beginworking to get better for nextyear. I’m really proud of the boysfor the effort that they gave us.But you have to tip your hat toMaryville. They played reallywell.”
Farragut (11-4-4) outshot the RedRebels 15-13 and took the early leadin the match. Senior John Tottenscored the game’s first goal on aheader in the sixth minute.
“We took the lead when wescored early against Maryville,”Dover said. “We outshot Maryville.
“We outshot in most of the
games that we played. We justhad trouble finishing. We hadtrouble getting the ball in theback of the net. Scoring is an art.It’s not a science. We had prob-l e m ss c o r i n gthis yearand thatwas aproblem last year too. We hadtrouble finishing shots.”
Maryville (14-4-2) pulled evenwhen Admirals senior goalkeep-er when Chris Fernandez talliedin the 16th minute. Thatsequence began when Admiralssenior goalkeeper Eli Lewis wascalled for a foul when he collided
with Maryville’s Will Barham inthe goal box.
Red Rebels forward ChrisFernandez misfired on the setpiece but came up with therebound and buried the ball inthe back of the net to knot thegame 1-1.
The Red Rebels tallied thegame-winning goal in the 75thminute when Matthew Campbellfound the back of the Admirals’net.
The goal sealed the win forMaryville, which beat theAdmirals twice this season andknocked Farragut out of thepostseason for the first time. Thevictory also helped the Red
Rebels avenge two consecutiveplayoff losses to the Admirals.
For Dover, the 2016 campaignserved as a building year and henoted that he wanted his playersto leave the field having learnedsome vital life lessons.
“Year one is really year zero[for a new coach], he said. “Youcome in and you establish a cul-ture.
“I’m using this [loss] to teachthe boys lessons about life andnot just sports. In life, you’regoing to have these things hap-pen to you. You have disappoint-ments is life. We all do and youhave to know how to come backfrom them.”

Hardin Valley's Jasmine Goodman 16, connects with this pitchfrom Maryville's Caylan Arnold, 12, for a double. Goodmanscored the winning run from second in the 4AAA DistrictChampionship played Saturday, May 14, at Hardin ValleyAcademy.
Ben Smith.“Bearden played a great game,”
Red Rebels coach Steve Feathersaid. “They’re just so quick.”
The Bulldogs created severalscoring opportunities. But Smithmade some stops and got somehelp from the goal frame.
“I really thought we would getmore [goals], Bearden juniormidfielder T.J. Seaman said. “Wehit the posts several times butwhen we hit the posts, I think itreally gave us the confidence thatwe needed.
“When we hit the posts, weknew we could get shots againstthem. We’re confident butMaryville is a great team and Ibet we’ll see them again [inThursday’s Region 2-AAAChampionship match].”
The Bulldogs, which struggledwith shooting accuracy through-out the opening 40 minutes, final-ly got on the board in the 16thminute when senior forwardGabe Alvarez fielded a pass fromSeaman and banged it past Smithand into the back of the Maryvillenet from 25 yards out.
Bearden tallied its lone markerof the match from long range butthe Bulldogs misfired on severalshots from point-blank range asthe ball often sailed over the topor went wide.
“It [the goal] was from about25 yards,” Alvarez said.
That marker was enough toenable the Bulldogs to capture asecond victory over the RedRebels and claim the districtchampionship. Bearden won theregular-season match betweenthe two sides. The Bulldogsnotched a hard-fought 4-3 win inBlount County on April 14.
Alvarez said that the earliergame against Maryville served asa bit of a wakeup call.
“I told the team before thegame that we really needed towin this game,” he said. “Nothingis ever easy in this district. This isthe district of death
“Going forward, we can takenothing lightly.”
Bearden had already advancedto the Region 2-AAA Tournamentby virtue of its regular-seasonchampionship but Seaman saidthat Saturday night’s win washuge for the Bulldogs.
BulldogsFrom page 6B
Arnold, who finished the con-test with 12 strikeouts, retired thefirst six Hawks she faced andfanned four hitters over the firsttwo frames. Wynne, meanwhile,surrendered a one-out single toCallahan Baker in the bottom ofthe first. She finished the gamewith 18 strikeouts.
She opened the game by fan-ning the side in each of the firstthree innings and that gave theHawks the opportunity to take thelead in the top of the third.
Freshman Jasmine Goodmandoubled after running the countfull against Arnold. EmaleeMcCord, another freshman, alsoran the count full before drawing awalk to put runners on first andsecond. Both runners advancedwhen Aubry McGuire successfullyexecuted a sacrifice bunt. AfterArnold struck out Haley Cloud,Wynne came to the plate and wasintentionally walked to load thebases.
That set the stage for sopho-more Mikaela Chavis. Chavis, akey player in HVA’s deep postsea-son run last year (that ended atthe Class AAA State Tournamentin Murfreesboro) singled to drivein Goodman and McCord withwhat would turn out to be the onlytwo runs of the contest.
“When Kaleigh got walked, itmade us all mad and we all knewthat we had to have her back,”Chavis said. “I think the pitch wasa drop ball, but I’m not sure. But Iknew that I had to get a hit.
“Any time Kaleigh gets walked,she gets mad because she wants
HawksFrom page 6B
to hit. I like the fact that I can geta hit and help out my teammates.”
Wynne noted that she thoughtthat her intentional walk irritatedChavis.
“I think when I got walked, itmade her mad,” Wynne said.
It was the fourth game betweenMaryville and the Hawks. Bothteams recorded two wins with theRed Rebels sweeping the regular-season series and Hardin Valleynabbing two postseason wins.
“I’m glad it was Maryville [in thedistrict championship game],”said Wynne, who struck out theside in the bottom of the third.“You always want to beat a teamthat wants to get revenge on you.
“We played solid defense and wegot some clutch hits.”
Hardin Valley left the bases
loaded in the fourth and came upempty despite getting a singlefrom Leslie Beecham beforeGoodman and McGuire walked.Arnold averted damage when shecaught Cloud swinging.
Maryville had its chances to winthe district championship in thebottom of the fourth. The RedRebels got a pair of one out hitswhen Anna Alloway singled andadvanced to third on a double byArnold. But Maryville was turnedaway when Wynne fanned KallieSingleton and Brooke Parker toextinguish the threat and end theinning.
Red Rebels coach David Allencommended the work of his seniorpitcher, who recently signed withthe University of Tennessee.

The third-seeded Admiralsopened the postseason with apair of wins over Lenoir City andsecond-seeded William Blountand appeared poised to make arun to the Region 2-AAATournament.
Farragut emerged from thewinner’s bracket before losing totop-seeded Maryville twice. TheAdmirals had a chance toadvance to the district champi-onship game but dropped a 3-0decision to the Red Rebels onTuesday, May 10, as Maryville’s
ace pitcher Caylan Arnold tosseda no-hitter and posted 18 strike-outs.
The Admirals’ loss set up a sec-ond game against the RedRebels. Arnold, again, fanned 18Farragut hitters.
But this time, the Admiralsmanaged three hits off TheUniversity of Tennessee signee.Farragut, which was without cen-ter fielder Andrea Sarhatt (whosuffered a hand injury in the firsttournament game againstMaryville) fell behind 5-1 afterthree innings before coming backto make things interesting.
The Admirals pulled to within
5-3 in the top of the fifth beforethe Red Rebels tallied anotherrun in the bottom of the frame.
“We battled our way back andwe gave ourselves a chance towin. That’s all you can ask,”Moore said. “Our kids battledhard all year.
“We came back and scored acouple of runs and we kept bat-tling. This year we had someyounger players who had to comein and step up because we had somany injuries. Hopefully, they’llbe ready for next year. We’re real-ly going to miss our seniors.”
Sophomore third basemanKelsie Tuggle had two key hits
for the Admirals. She had a solohome run and contributed anRBI single. She was named to theall-tournament team, along withsenior first baseman Mary ClaireCoyne.
Senior Morgan Stapletondrove in Farragut’s other runwith a hit.
Despite the injuries, Farragutwon some big games and had somebright spots in 2016. Senior short-stop Niki Slone, Coyne and juniorcatcher Lexee Lamoree werenamed to the all-District 4-AAAteam by the league’s coaches.
Tuggle and Sarhatt receivedall-district honorable mentions.

tionally shaken after the gamebut he took the time to commendthe 2016 senior class for itsaccomplishments.
“This group of seniors won thefirst District 4 championship inschool history this year,”Michalski said. “They won aState Championship last yearand they also won a District 3Championship.
“The one year that they didn’twin a district championship,they finished in first place dur-ing the regular season.”
