Matt Chance Is MissouriTrack, Field Coach Of The Year

BY BRICE CHANDLERSTAFF WRITER

Friday, Oct. 2 at Bowling GreenHigh School, students and staff sur-prised one their own just beforelunch. High School Principal Scott

Mullins and SuperintendentMatthew Frederickson were notifiedonly two days earlier that ActivitiesDirector had been selected as theMSHSAA and NHS Coach of theYear for Boys Track and Field. Unbeknownst to Coach Chance

the Bowling Green staff and stu-dents quickly set to work to spring asurprise presentation of the award. While Chance was called away to

the superintendent’s office for a nec-essary but decoy meeting, Mullins,staff, and a group of track and fieldstudents hastily gathered in the gym-nasium before lunch. There to present the award on be-

half of MSHSAA was the organiza-tion’s Assistant Executive Director,Don Maurer. Maurer explained that Coach

Chance was selected as Coach of theYear from over 400 Missouri highschools that participated in Trackand Field. Winning the Missouri award

nominates him for the national level. But this isn’t Chance’s first

award. He’s won three state Coach of the

Year awards in Cross Country, al-though this was his first for the BoysTrack and Field. Even though Chance knew about

his nomination for a month, he was-n’t aware he had won and the ployto surprise him worked.

“Yeah, I had no idea,” Chancesaid afterwards. “They were callingfor me to come out here, and I hadno idea.” “There hasn't been to many times

in the past 23 years at BowlingGreen High School that I have beencaught off guard, but today was oneof them,” He went to state in a socialmedia post. “I have always said that I get to

work with some of the best kids inthe state year after year in track andcross country. They are the ones thatmake this job so enjoyable andworthwhile. I am fully aware thatwithout great kids, things like thisdon't happen.” A large gathering of those stu-

dents attended the presentation andhelped make the surprise so effec-tive. Chance’s wife and children were

also in attendance to help him cele-brate the win. Coach Chance went on to thank

the athletes and assistant coachesthat he’s worked with throughout hiscareer. “We don't have one headcoach in track and cross country.Everyone that coaches track andcross country is considered a headcoach in my mind. We work to-gether and share in the success anddisappointments together.” With the next bell, it was back to

business for both the students andstaff as Mullins ushered them awayafter a photo op. For Chance and thecross-country team, the focus is ontraining for the Bowling Green In-vite and districts which BowlingGreen will hostat the end of themonth.

Majority Of Georgia Street PossiblyCompleted By Oct. 16

BY BRICE CHANDLERSTAFF WRITER

Louisiana's Georgia street projecthas become a sore subject for manyof the residents and businesses in thecity. The project began in 2018 andhas drawn the ire of many as it's lin-gered on. The city faced setbacks starting

with high bids which were re-bid toMick Mehler and Sons Inc. andMartin Construction Inc. City work-ers also tackled a large portion of theproject which some residents ques-tioned. Mayor Marvin Brown andCity Administrator Kelly Hendersonhave both defended that decision. Although the choice to use city

workers slowed progress, the projectis finally nearing completion. According to Henderson, a large

portion of the work on GeorgiaStreet could be finished by the endof the week. “If all goes according to plan,”

Henderson told the Tribune. “7ththru 23rd should be paved andopened by the end of next week orthe first of the following week.” If that happened, Georgia Street

could open except for some short,one-lane closures as crews finishwork on sidewalks and cleanup. Unfortunately, businesses from

7th to 4th streets will still have todeal with ongoing work. LouisianaMayor Marvin Brown and Hender-son have previously stated they ex-pect that portion of the project tofinish next spring.

The city council approved a mo-tion to change the order of additionalstreets that were also approved forrepairs as part of the Georgia StreetCorridor plan. “The plan was to always allow at

least some amount to work on otherstreets,” Mayor Brown clarified.“Additional dollars will be comingfrom where we have made somecuts from other locations in theCity's general budget in order toplace a higher priority on street re-pairs.” With the change, sections of

North Carolina, South Carolina,Peacock, Murray, and E Streetsalong with Haley Ave and KellyLane will get some much-needed re-pairs.

The motion passed for an amountup to $250,000. “$250,000 is an "up to" amount

that we won't be able to completelypin down until we're further along,”Mayor Brown added. “What most of this calls for is a

leveling and overlay on top of it be-cause it's so rough. Most everythingis getting a one-inch leveling and aninch and half overlay,” Hendersonanswered when asked what the ad-ditional work would include. The council also questioned the

state of Tennessee street between 4and 6 streets where the road bridgesthe city branch. “It needs more than just paving,”

Councilperson Epperson noted.

“We may have to overlay it justso it can be traveled,” Kelly addedas they discussed the condition ofthe Tennessee Street bridge. “It’sgoing to get so bad; you won’t beable to travel it.” Henderson explained part of the

problem was the skewed direction ofthe original bridging. “I think it’s going to have to be

completely redone,” CouncilpersonRinghausen stated. “It’s beyond justpatching. Maybe put something overto get it through the winter.” Ring-hausen emphasized that furtherroadwork would be necessary in thespring. “If you want to redirect some of

the work on say Murray Street andoverlay [Tennessee], then let’s doit,” Kelly answered the council. “As long as we don’t have to tear

it up later to fix the issue,” Eppersonadded. “We would be wasting thatmoney and time.” “So, again, this is all the money

we can pull to do what streets wecan,” Kelly added after the counciltalked of other streets also needingrepairs. Henderson told the councilthe selected streets had the bestchance of not needing to be dug uplater due to any failing structure un-derneath. His selection was based onthe current state of the streets, traf-fic, and underlying infrastructure.

Residents can expect milling andoverlaying on Georgia Street tobegin this week.

Grote Attends Equine TourThroughout all my time in 4-H,

my favorite experiences have beenthe 4-H Equine Tour and the PikeCounty Youth Fair. The Equine Touris an awesome week-long touraround the United States, where 4-Hyouth can take a look into manyareas of the equine industry.

Closer to home, there is nothingquite like the excitement of finallygetting to show off all your hardwork from the year prior at the live-stock shows, the barn buzzing with

excitement. Although the fair mayhave looked a bit different this year,it was a great way to finish my ca-reer in the 4-H Organization.

I would love to thank everyonewho has helped in this great organi-zation to get me to where I am today.Without 4-H, I probably would nothave discovered my passion for live-stock and horses, which I am nowpursuing in college and beyond.Thank you, 4-H!

Pike Youth To CelebrateNational 4-H Week

Lexi Robb Loves 4-H OpportunitiesMy name is Lexi Robb and I am a

member of the Pleasant Workers 4-HClub. I started 4-H as a Clover Kid whenI was in kindergarten. This is my 12thyear in 4-H. I love 4-H and all the op-portunities it provides. My favorite part of 4-H is camp. I

have gone to camp as soon as I was oldenough. Before that, I had gone with mymom to help in the kitchen. I enjoy see-ing friends from neighboring counties

that I only get to spend time with atcamp. The dress up meals have alwaysbeen fun to plan for and the counselorheadhunt is usually a big hit. Of course,swimming and recreation are fun too. Iwas excited to be selected as a campcounselor for this past summer, butcamp was cancelled due to Covid. Ihope I can be a counselor next summer. I started as a Clover Kid and as soon

as I was able, I helped lead Clover Kids.This year, for the first time, I was a Jr.Leader meaning I planned and led theClover Kid meetings. With some of theprojects, I think I had just as much funas my 5-8 year old project members.Finding projects to do with the youngestmembers of our club is fun, especiallythe projects we do around the holidays.Baking projects, gingerbread houses,and painting are some of my Clover Kidsfavorites. I’ve learned that I need to overplan for these meetings to keep themembers busy.The past two years in 4-H, I have

served as president for Pleasant Work-ers. As one of the older members in ourclub, I realize the importance of keepingour meeting on schedule and organized.I’m typically pretty quiet, but I havelearned I have to speak up to be heard

and lead our meetings. I have alsoserved as club historian, game leader,and vice president. Pleasant Workers isa smaller club so members get leader-ship roles from the very beginning. Every year my club has a hayride to

welcome new families. For me, that isone of my favorite club meetings of theyear, as long as it isn’t too cold! We alsogo caroling for our Christmas meetingaround Frankford and deliver cookies toshut ins. Serving meals at our county-wide fundraiser, Springfest, makes for abusy but successful day. I work hard allyear to complete many exhibits for thePike County Fair. I usually have multipleitems chosen to send to the state fair.This past summer, I had Best of Showfor Home Environment. 4-H has oppor-tunities for everyone, you just have tojump in and try new things. I am looking forward to my last two

years in 4-H. I hope I get the opportunityto go to Washington D.C. and Chicagowith 4-H. And I’m all ready for 4-H Camp2021! This year I hope to learn newskills through Home Environment, Foods2, and Scrapbooking. I also know myexperiences in 4-H will help me through-out college and with future employment.

Lady Cats Volleyball ImpressiveShowing Against North Callaway

BY BRICE CHANDLERSTAFF WRITER

Thursday, Oct. 1 was the LadyCats first game on homecourt sinceSept. 10 when they defeated Inten-sity Senior High School. Once again, the Bowling Green

Volleyball team put on a show forlocal fans by besting North Call-away in all three sets of their varsitygame. “It is a great start to having all our

volleyball players back on thecourt,” Coach Jill Dotson said of thematch up. “We played well as a tea-mat the Varsity and JV level againstNorth Calloway.” The JV won their game in two

sets 25-14, 25-4. According to Dot-son, the highlight of the JV gamewas when Hannah Post scored 18points in arow. “The JV team islooking good defensively and offen-sively.” The varsity team defeated North

Calloway 25-12, 25-13, 25-12. “We are doing a great job at find-

ing the other team’s hole on thecourt and placing the ball to receivethe point,” Dotson stated. “Thebackrow is doing an excellent job atcommunicating to our front row hit-ters. We are adjusting well and im-proving on our communication onthe court.” Kaylyn Charlton provided one

highlight of the night when sheblasted a spike into an failed Lady-bird block which ricocheted out giv-ing BowlingGreen the point. Another highlight came on a

North Callaway play when a set andspike attempt met a wall of LadyCats blockers and was repelled giv-ing the ballback to Bowling Green. Coming away with 100 percent

serving in the matchup was GraceTwellman. She went five for fivefrom the serving line. Also displaying impressive serv-

ing was Megan Niemeyer who went17/18 and Miranda Liber with 18/19given them 94 percent from the line. The Lady Cats racked up aces for

the evening. Miranda Liber with six,Kaylyn Charlton had five, and An-drea Korte scored three. Kaylyn Charlton had an awesome

night from the 10-foot line with atotal of 18 kills and one block. Kayelee Stephens ended the night

with five kills and 27 assists. GraceTwellman and Andrea Korte eachended the night with four kills. “Our defense was low and ready

adding to the success for the night,”Dotson added. Kayelee Stephens had eight digs,

Grace Twellman had six, MeganNiemeyer with 5 digs, and AndreaKorte and Kaylynn Charlton eachhad 4. “It was nice to get a win for both

JV and Varsity tonight. Tonight, wasVarsity’s first Conference win forthe season. Our next match up is at Father

Tolton on Tuesday, Oct. 6.” The Lady Cats improve to 3-10-1

with seven games left before dis-tricts begin. Their next home gameis against Wright City on Oct 15.
