BRISTOL, TENN. — Denny Hamlin pickedup his 20th NASCAR Sprint Cup career winSaturday night by taking the victory in IrwinTools Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway.

The win also was his third of the season forHamlin and according to the 31-year-old driv-er for Joe Gibbs Racing, it was the biggest winof his career.

“You start to think about it with about 10laps to go, what it would mean to win here,”Hamlin said. “You know, you struggle to saywhat it means to win here because I grew upwatching this so many times and all the greatfinishes. This just a milestone type of racethat you always want to win.”

The victory came for Hamlin in the firstSprint Cup race after BMS resurfaced thetrack and made it narrower around the half-mile track.

The move came after several fans in thesmaller-than-normal crowd at the springrace voiced their opinions to BMS officials

WISE — Darren Reed’sdebut as a head footballcoach was a successfulone.

Reed’s CentralWarriors racked up over400 yards on offense —including a big night fromLogan Collins — and astrong defensive effort totake a 37-14 victory overthe Thomas WalkerPioneers at UVa-Wise’sCarl Smith Stadium.

The game was the sea-son opener for bothteams.

The Warrior defenserecovered five ThomasWalker fumbles and heldhighly-vaulted Pioneerrunning back Cody to 48yards on 15 carries.

”They want to playdefense and that’s huge,”Reed said of his defensiveunit. “They don’t mindthrowing their bodiesaround and running intowalls and that’s what youwant as a coach.

“The kids picked upthe scheme we had to con-tain Mr. Cain and the kidsdid well with it. Wejumped a couple of routesthat we shouldn’t havebased on the reads, but wejumped on the board earlyand took control of thegame and we settled inand did what we had to do

on offense.”Collins did some heavy

damage for the Centraloffense.

The junior picked up177 yards and two touch-downs on 17.

“Seeing Logan Collinssquaring his shoulders upand running downhill andrunning with some pur-pose was certainly good tosee. We didn’t have to gointo our option offense asmuch. There is a lot wehave to work on but over-all I was really tickled,”said Reed.

MCKENZIE, TENN. —UVa-Wise fought on eventerms with nationally-ranked Bethel Universityfor four quarters Saturdaynight before settling thegridiron dispute in over-time with a remarkabledefensive play by sopho-more cornerbackNehemiah Jones and aclutch 41-yard field goalby Paul Melshen for a 24-21 victory at WildcatsStadium.

“Wow! What a footballgame!” said an emotionalUVa-Wise head coachDewey Lusk following theseason-opening contest forboth Mid-SouthConference schools.

“Both teams made bigplays and there was onlyone turnover in the wholegame,” said Lusk.“Fortunately for us,Nehemiah Jones caused itwith a great play that put us in position to winit with the field goal.”

UVa-Wise’s victory spoiled the debut ofChris Elliott as Bethel’s head coach. The winover the MSC-West preseason favorite also

unveiled the football savvy of freshmanCavalier running back Connery Swift.

The UVa-Wise freshman made the most ofthe opportunity by producing 164 yards from24 carries in a game that was dominated by

the Cavs’ offensive anddefensive fronts in the sec-ond half until Bethel ral-lied from a 21-13 deficit inthe final 3:30 to send thegame into overtime follow-ing a 16-yard touchdownrun by quarterback WilMasoud and a two-pointconversion run byCordarius Mann with 45.3seconds remaining in thefourth quarter.

Bethel began the over-time scenario on offense atthe Cavs’ 25-yard line andMann broke through theright side for a 10-yardgain on the first play, butUVa-Wise’s Jones stunnedthe home crowd by steal-ing the ball from the All-America running back’shands as he fought formore yardage at the 15.

Three snaps later,Melshen drilled the 41-yard field goal to knock offthe No. 11 NAIA team inthe nation.

“I had tried to strip theball from him in the first half, but he was ableto pull away from me,” said Jones. “When Igot the chance in overtime, I knew I had to

BIG STONE GAP — The Coal Bucket will stay in BigStone Gap for another year.

Mekyah Davis scored a pair of touchdowns andUnion gained over 400 yards rushing in a 38-20 win overthe Lee High Generals in the season-opening “Brawl forthe Bucket” at Bullitt Park Friday night.

“Our running backs did a good job running the balltonight, and I am just proud of our offensive unit,”Bears head coach Travis Turner said.

Despite the huge offensive numbers for Union, Lee’soffense struck for the game’s first score on the openingdrive of the contest.

Lee’s scoring drive covered 69 yards in 10 plays,with quarterback Houston Sage plunging in to the endzone from 1 yard out to put the Generals up 6-0.

The Bears answered on their initial drive, as Davistook a misdirection play untouched into the right cornerfor a 24-yard score to tie the game at 6-6.

The Bears took the lead later in the quarter whenDavis scored his second touchdown of the evening on a10-yard run. The Bears were successful on the 2-pointconversion, to take a 14-6 lead after one quarter.

“He has been our leader all year long,” Turner saidof Davis, who finished with 144 yards on 11 carries.

Union tacked on two more touchdowns in the firsthalf with a 2-yard touchdown run from Nathan Rasnickand converting a broken play into a score.

Facing second-and-five from theGeneral 35, sophomore quarterbackTanner Hall turned to give the ballto Davis, who had already brokenthrough the line. Hall made themost of the play, however, scram-bling to the end zone to give Unionthe 28-6 lead.

Lee used effective clock manage-ment to trim the lead before half-time.

Quarterback Houston Sage —also a sophomore — scrambled infrom 6 yards out as time expired. Asuccessful 2-point conversion madethe halftime score 28-14.

Union continued with the run inthe third quarter.

After a mishandled kickoffpinned the Bears at their own 9 to

start the quarter, Union marched 83 yards on nine con-secutive running plays.

The drive stalled at the General 8 yard line, butBrandon Simon added a 26-yard field goal to giveUnion a 31-14 lead.

Lee then went three-and-out on their next posses-sion and was forced to punt from its own 42.

The punt snap sailed over the punter’s head and wasrecovered by the Bears at the Lee 15.

Three plays later, Michael Reed sprinted in for an 8-yard touchdown to put the game out of reach.

Sage tossed a late touchdown pass in the fourthquarter for the final margin, but Lee could get no clos-er.

“The biggest problem was the team that we wereplaying,” Lee coach Terry Martin said. “They wereimpressive, and we knew that they were a pretty goodteam.”

Sage completed 6 of 13 passes for 89 yards and atouchdown for the Generals.

Junior Jake McCray also eclipsed the 100-yardrushing mark, with 104 on 10 carries, while Ben Baughcarried 18 times for 85 yards for Union. u

MICHAEL N. TATESPORTS WRITER

DAMASCUS — The J.I.Burton Raiders used a produc-tive offensive effort and a soliddefensive outing to take a 26-7decision over the HolstonCavaliers Friday night in thefootball season opener for bothschools.

“You never apologize for awin. The goal was to come overhere, open up on the road andbeat a much-improved Holstonteam, and we accomplished thatby three touchdowns,” Burtonhead coach Jim Adams saidafter the Raiders moved to 1-0on the season.

Holston’s improvementsfrom last year were obvious ontheir opening drive of the sea-son.

The Cavaliers moved the ball44 yards to open the night, asHolston quarterback SethThomas made perfect choicesout of the triple-option threat.The Cavs moved the ball insidethe Raider 40 in 10 plays.

Burton’s defense stiffened attheir own 34 and stoppedThomas on a fourth-and-sixkeeper, handing the ball over tothe Raider offense.

The explosive Burton offenseflexed its power all the way tothe end zone, using all three ofits weapons.

Riley Maggard and MalikMiles ripped off solid carries topull in the Holston defense.Then quarterback TannerCrowder threw over the top ofthe Cavalier defenders, lifting aperfectly-thrown ball to asprinting Jimmy Patten, and

Burton was dancing in the endzone in just seven plays. Burtonled 6-0 with 2:12 left in the first.

After giving up 44 yards onthe opening drive, Burton’sdefense shut down the Cavaliersfor basically the balance of theball game.

On Burton’s second drive,the Raiders’ offense misfiredand were forced to punt.Crowder’s 46-yard boot pinnedthe Cavaliers back at their 14.

On the second play, line-backer Ian Walker read theCavalier quarterback perfectly,stepping in front of a Thomaspass. The 215-pound seniorsnared the ball at the Holston 17and following a convoy ofRaider defenders returned it fora touchdown. Walker thenadded the conversion run, giv-ing Burton a 14-0 lead with 8:14left before intermission.

The Raiders forced anotherCavalier punt, putting Burtonback in business at their own 27.

It took little time for Burtonto score again.

Miles found a seam down theleft sideline, then cut backacross the field and was gone.The bruising senior showed hisspeed on this play, darting 42yards for another Burton touch-down to give the Raiders a 20-0lead with 2:43 left before inter-mission.

Burton took the opening kickin the third quarter and tuckedaway the ball game with a five-play, 75-yard drive.

Raider junior slot back TylerJustiniano had a pair of nice car-ries, which combined for 46yards to help fill in for Maggard,who injured his back.

Miles capped the Raiders’scoring for the night with a 5-yard burst of power through theheart of the Holston defense,making the count 26-0 Burtonwith 10:22 left in the third.

Holston made its lone scorewith 11:52 left in the contest,with an 11-play, 76-yard drive.

It was the most effective theCavaliers’ offense had beensince their opening drive of thenight. David Cannon scoredfrom 16 yards out on a touch-down run and Ethan Milleradded the PAT to cut the Raiderslead to 26-7.

Miles was the night’s leadingrusher, getting 93 yards on eightcarries. Justiniano finished thenight with 56 yards on five car-ries. Maggard tallied 44 yards onnine attempts.

Dakota Barlow led Holstonwith 36 yards on nine carries. u

HONAKER — TheHonaker Lady Tigers did-n’t lose a player to gradu-ation and returned 10 vet-erans to a team thatadvanced to the regionalsemifinals before fallingto Eastside last season.

The Union Lady Bearswere hit hard by gradua-tion and have somerebuilding to do.

But, the Lady Bears (1-1) gave a strong perform-ance Thursday night totake a hard-fought 3-1nondistrict win overHonaker on Thursday atA.P. BaldwinGymnasium.

“We’re still figuringsome things out,” Unioncoach Kim Moore said.“There are some newpieces to the puzzle outthere. We’re still learningto play with each other,second guessing eachother, sometimes playingtimid, just still trying tofigure everything out.

“We do play hard andthat has me excited forthis season.”

There wasn’t anythingeasy about the LadyBears win. Each gamewas a nail-biter but Unionseemed to grab everycritical point to take setwins by 26-24, 25-23, 24-26, 25-19 scores.

The Lady Tigers didn’thave an answer for thesenior Union duo ofBrandee Childress andAlisha Hafemiester upfront.

The two pounded theball on the front line andwere also strong defen-sively, making it tough forHonaker to get the ball bythem.

“We had some troublematching up,” first-yearHonaker coach AmyDavidson said. “We had togo around the two biggirls. We didn’t get manyhard kills, we started try-ing to place the ballaround where they could-n’t get to it or lift it overthem.”

Childress slammed 17

kills and had five blocks.Hafemiester was closebehind with 16 kills, threeblocks and also added 17digs. Freshman SydneyMcKinney also had a stel-lar night with nine killsand four blocks.

“We were not consis-tent,” Hafemiester said.“We didn’t play with a lotof energy, but it may bewhere we had played onback-to-back nights.”

In the first set,Honaker came back to tieit for the sixth time at 24-all with serve. But a serv-ice error and a combina-tion block by Childressand Mackenzie Blantongave the win to the LadyBears.

Set two was tied 16times and there were 13lead-changes. Union tiedit at 23, when Honakerwas called for getting inthe net. Hafemiester thenserved a critical ace andMcKinney gave them awin with a block as theywent up 2-0 in the match.

The Lady Tigers cameback to win the third set.But for the first time inthe match the Lady Bearswere in complete controlin the fourth set.

It was tied only once at1-1 and then Ali Morganserved five consecutivepoints. They never lookedback as they rolled to thewin.

“Morgan and JonaRaeWade are sophomores,”said Moore. “They arevery athletic but we haveto keep them composed.

“Especially whereMorgan plays the setterposition, she has to staycalm. She grew up a lottonight. She really camethrough when we neededher. Morgan will be fine,she is learning how tocontrol her emotions andstay composed.”

Morgan had a hugenight with 50 assists, 14digs and five aces. Wadeadded 28 digs.

Honaker (0-1) was ledby Meghan Hess with 10kills. Caitlin Cook andEmily Kendrick con-tributed six kills each. u

HAYSI — The Haysi Tigers had towait a little longer to get their first foot-ball win of the new season.

A lightening storm delayed the open-ing kickoff for the Tigers and theCastlewood Blue Devils. When thingsgot started, the Tigers opened the sea-son with a 28-14 victory at SandlickField.

“I thought we played well,” Haysicoach James Colley said of his team’soverall performance. “We had someissues with adjusting to the unbalancedformation, but overall the defenseplayed well. (Castlewood’s Blake Sloce)was very hard to contain. He was in ourbackfield as much as we were. This issomething we need to work on. We putour best player on him, but couldn’t stophim.”

Sloce finished the night with foursacks and picked up 70 yards rushing.

Castlewood’s offense kept the ball forabout eight minutes of the 12-minutefirst quarter. But the Blue Devils (0-1)couldn’t score.

“Luckily we were able to stop theirdrives and passes, but we needed toadjust to the unbalanced formationsbetter,” said Colley.

Haysi took control of the momentumin the second quarter by scoring twotouchdowns before halftime.

Tiger quarterback Zack Owens con-nected with Heath Mullins for a 26-yard reception and touchdown. Owensconnected with Mullins for the two-point conversion to put Haysi up 8-0.

Owens and Mullins connected againfor a 6-yard touchdown pass to put theTigers up 14-0 before halftime.

With 10:58 left on the clock in the

third quarter, Owens found anotherreceiver for a touchdown.

Jeffrey Bowen, a transfer from theclosed Ervinton High School, hauled in apass and sprinted 40 yards for a 52-yardtouchdown to put Haysi ahead 20-0.

Bowen came up big for the Tigersagain in the third quarter with a 65-yardpunt return for a touchdown. TylerBlankenship added the two-point con-version run to put Haysi up 28-0 withjust over eight minutes to play in thethird quarter.

Despite controlling the football for abig part of the game, Castlewood could-n’t capitalize early because of mistakes.

“We shot ourselves in the foot. Youcan’t possibly set yourself up for a winwith three bad punt snaps, a blockedpunt, two lost fumbles, an interceptionand allowing two sacks,” saidCastlewood coach David Scammel.

“We continued to give Haysi goodfield position and they were able to cap-italize. I felt like our defense playedwell. We made it in their backfield forseven sacks, but just couldn’t manage toput enough points on the board.”

Castlewood plagued by turnovers,overcame it mistakes it in the thirdquarter and got big gains from Sloce.

Dalton Gordon connected with JacobCornette on a 5-yard touchdown pass toput the Blue Devils on the scoreboard.

Castlewood dominated with the pos-session of the football during the fourthquarter.

Sloce picked up large rushing gainsthat set up the final score of the gamewith a 2-yard touchdown run. Gordonthen connected with Cornette for thetwo-point conversion to cut the Haysilead to 28-14.

That was as close as the Blue Devilscould get. u

COEBURN — The SullivanNorth Golden Raiders beat theEastside Spartans at their owngame Friday night.

The Golden Raiders (2-0)used their speed to take a 32-6win over the Spartans (0-1) atCarl McConnell Stadium.

“Our speed is one of ourbiggest strengths and they defi-nitely took that away from ustonight,” said Eastside coachMatt Hamilton. “They’re goodin the middle, they’re good onthe edge, they’re good in thebackfield, they’re good every-where ... This was a very goodfootball team.

“I’m not going to walk out of

here and say the season’s overbecause we lost to SullivanNorth. I mean I don’t want totake anything else away fromany body’s program, but that’sprobably the best team we’regoing to face all season.”

Hamilton’s Spartans keptthings tight in the early going ofFriday’s game, thanks in part tosome big mistakes by North.

The Raiders moved the ballfrom their own 32 yard line toEastside 6 on the first drive ofthe game. But a fumble recov-ered by Eastside’s Tim Craigerstopped the scoring threat.

On the second possession ofthe game, North moved the ballagain and pushed it into the endzone for the first points of thenight.

North quarterback CoryRowe capped off the drive witha 2-yard touchdown run with1:29 to play in the opening quar-ter. Will Henshaw added thePAT kick to put the Raiders up7-0.

The score remained thesame throughout the secondquarter with North taking theone touchdown lead into thelocker room at halftime.

“I’m very pleased with theway we played the first half,”said Hamilton. “We let somemistakes in the second halfsnowball on us and we starteddropping our heads a little bitand you can’t do that with ateam of that caliber.”

It didn’t take long for thesnowballing to start for

Eastside.After being held to three

plays on the opening drive of thethird quarter, a short punt bythe Spartans gave North the ballat the Eastside 34.

Three plays later, Rowebroke into the open field for a17-yard touchdown. The scorewas the second of Rowe’s threetouchdown runs in the game.Henshaw’s PAT kick put theRaiders up 14-0 with 9:33 toplay in the third quarter.

Rowe, who finished the nightwith 85 yards rushing on 11 car-ries and completed 5-of-11 pass-es for 65 yards, scored his finaltouchdown of the night with 2-yard touchdown run to cap off a39-yard, four-play drive.

Eastside posed its biggest

threat of the night on the nextdrive.

The Spartans opened up theair game and moved the ball tothe North 19. But, the driveended when Hunter Jones inter-cepted a pass for the Raiders atthe 9.

The Golden Raiders addedtwo more scores in the fourthquarter with an 8-yard touch-down run from Bryson Salyerswith 6:23 to play in the gameand a 46-yard touchdown jauntfrom Jacoby Thompson with1:52 left in the contest.

Eastside’s lone score in thegame came on a 76-yard touch-down from Ethan Collins.

Collins finished the nightwith 93 yards on seven carriesfor the Spartans. u

that the Bristol race was-n’t as exciting because thetrack was too wide allow-ing cars more room topass.

Hamlin said the newresurfaced track, made itmore difficult to pass.

It made it more excit-ing to watch for the145,000 fans at BMS, aswell.

The race saw 13 cau-tions for 87 laps, with allbut two of the cautionperiods coming becauseof wrecks on the track.

The race was also high-lighted by Tony Stewartthrowing a helmet andhitting the windshield ofMatt Kenseth’s car afterthe two wrecked on thefrontstech racing for thelead.

“`I’m going to run overhim every chance I’ve gotfrom now ’til the end ofthe year, every chanceI’ve got,” Steward said ofKenseth.

“Yeah, that’s fine,”Kenseth said of Stewart’scomments. “Look, Tony isprobably the greatest racecar driver in the garage. Idon’t really have anythingbad to say about Tony.

“On the race track foryears and years and yearswe’ve had a ton of respectfor each other and, forwhatever reason this year,he ran me off the track atSears Point and said hewas sorry. It cost meseven spots in the finish-ing order. And at Indy hewas mad because he said Iblocked him and I askedfor five minutes of histime to clear the air andhe wouldn’t give it to meand pretty much just gotcussed out and knockedmy whole side off and putus in position to getwrecked.

“So I just said ‘OK,that’s fine. I’m just goingrace you the same wayyou race me.’

“And the showed mehow he was going to race

me down there, so I justdid the same thing on theother end. So I don’t know.If you look at it we did theexact same thing, it’s justthat he didn’t lift. So, Idon’t really see wherethat’s 100 percent of myfault or problem.”

The race brought backsome memories for veter-an driver Jeff Gordon,who finished third in therace.

“It was pretty wild ... Itjust reminded me of old-school Bristol,” saidGordon. “I think it was asuccess and I certainlyhad a lot of fun.”

Gordon, just like everyother driver in the 43-carfield, found out quicklythat running on the topgroove of the track wasthe most successful wayto make it around theoval.

“It was a typical nightrace at Bristol. It washard to pass, but the thingthat was unique was theupper groove. When therubber started layingdown up there was moregrip and from that pointon it was all four wheelson the new concrete theyhad ground up.”

Second-place finisherand five-time NASCARchampion JimmieJohnson didn’t seem tohave nearly as hard of atime passing cars as someof the other drivers.

Johnson started therace from the 37th posi-tion, but worked his wayup to second by the timethe checkered flagdropped.

“We had a really fastcar and we had to have afast car because when youstart that far behind in thefield here, you’re about ahalf a lap behind already,”said Johnson.

Johnson’s second-place finish clinched aspot for him in theNASCAR Chase, the final10 races of the season thatdecides the season cham-pion. u

BRISTOL, TENN. (AP) —Joey Logano used an early pitstop and a dominant car Fridaynight to win at Bristol MotorSpeedway for the first time inthe Nationwide Series.

Logano chased down KevinHarvick, then held on over aseries of late cautions for hissixth victory of the season.

“It feels so good to get here toVictory Lane,” said Logano, whohad five top-10 finishes in sevenprevious Nationwide starts atBristol. “I think I’ve led themost laps in this race aboutthree or four times and we’venever been here to VictoryLane.”

Logano led 119 laps but fin-ished fourth in March. A yearago, he was second after leading12 laps.

Defending series championRicky Stenhouse Jr. was second,

followed by Kyle Busch, AustinDillon and Elliott Sadler.

Danica Patrick, who strug-gled all day at Bristol, rebound-ed to finish ninth. It’s the third-best finish of her career and thefifth top-10 in Nationwide. She’llalso race in the Cup eventSaturday night.

Stenhouse and Sadler hadcontact on the final restart, withthree laps remaining in Fridaynight’s race. Stenhouse immedi-ately went to Sadler’s car andapologized.

“That was my fault. I shouldhave lifted more and gave himmore room,’’ Stenhouse said.``We’re racing for this champi-onship and you hate to get intohim like that. I’m glad I didn’tcrash him.”

Stenhouse cut three pointsfrom Sadler’s lead, and trailsSadler by 19 points in the cham-pionship race. Sadler wasn’timpressed with Stenhouse’sapology.

“He said he didn’t mean tohit us, and what I told him is I’vealso been careful around himlast year and this year. We’vealways raced each other with alot of respect,” Sadler said. “I’mglad he didn’t wreck us. Hepushed us out of the way, but itcould have been ugly. It’s not thefinish we deserved. We shouldhave finished second.”

Sadler also said Stenhouseopened the door for hard racingbetween the two for the remain-der of the season.

“He just opened it up, we canrace each other a lot differentlythese last 10 races,” Sadler said.

The race had plenty of bump-ing and banging, which trackpromoter Bruton Smith hopedto return to Bristol by grindingdown the top lane this summer.Busch, one of the best activedrivers at Bristol, called thetrack ``terrible’’ after practiceon Friday and he hadn’tchanged his mind after the

Nationwide race.“It’s definitely hard to pass

out there,” he said. “Everybodyis fighting for the top, trying toboot everybody out of the way.It’s frustrating.”

Busch also took a shot atSmith for ignoring the drivers’call not to change the track. ButSmith, frustrated with decliningattendance, moved forwardwith his plans to narrow thetrack in an effort to cut down alane and force Bristol’s trade-mark bumping and bangingstyle.

``I think they made itworse,’’ he said. “I’m glad theyconferred with all the drivers.”

But it produced the actionthe fans have called for. TrevorBayne, making his first startsince Roush Fenway Racingshuttered his team in March,had late contact with Dillon thatled to words between the twoafter the race. Bayne bumpedDillon on the track to show his

displeasure and RichardChildress, Dillon’s car ownerand grandfather, stepped in dur-ing the post-race discussion.

“The 3 car (Dillon) just droveover his head and took us out.That’s all there is to it,” Baynesaid.

Logano, who led a race-high81 of the 250 laps in his JoeGibbs Racing Toyota, made anearly pit stop for four tires thatbaffled him when crew chiefAdam Stevens made the call.After the race, he said the callmade the difference.

“That’s why I don’t crewchief. I get paid to drive the carand it’s a good thing Adam getspaid to do what he does,”Logano said. “I came in and sawno one else and I was like, ‘Uhoh, we screwed up here.’ Wewere able to have a good enoughcar to pass a couple back andthen the strategy worked out theway it needed to and here weare.” u

HONAKER — It waswhat you would expect inthe traditional start to thefootball season betweenRussell County rivalsLebanon and Honaker.

In a contest marred byseven turnovers, Honakerheld on for a thrilling 14-13 win over the visitingPioneers at EMATSStadium in the secondannual Russell CountyMedical Center “CoalBowl” on Friday.

“Too many turnovers,too many penalties, justtoo many mistakes,” saidHonaker coach DougHubbard. “We were veryfortunate to get out of herewith a win. We had somegood drives going in bothhalves but we would turnaround with a penalty, aturnover, a dropped ballor something to stop ourmomentum.

“I thought our defenseplayed well except for thetwo big plays. It was anugly win, but it was a win.We had five fumbles lostfour, anytime you do thatand come away with a winyou’re fortunate.”

Tiger quarterback TyHall was 13-of-21 passingfor 219 yards and wasinvolved in every scoringplay by the Tigers.

“Ty is a player,” said

Hubbard. “He did a goodjob and should have hadmore, we dropped a cou-ple balls.”

Hall threw two touch-down passes. He alsotossed a conversion passto Jon Ritchie in whatproved to be the pivotalplay of the game.

“We just made toomany mistakes,” saidHall. “We had too manyturnovers. We weren’treally consistent with any-thing we did.”

The game was score-less throughout the firsthalf. Two fumbles endedHonaker drives. An inter-ception stopped aLebanon drive.

A Lebanon intercep-tion led to the firstHonaker touchdown.Cornerback Jordan Hesspicked off a pass by JohnMichael Duty to giveHonaker the ball. A cou-ple of running plays didn’tgain much against a stingyPioneer defense. Hallthen hit Blake Ray with aslant pass, Ray did therest racing 47-yards to theend zone. A bad snapnegated the extra pointand Honaker led 6-0.

“Ray did it all,” saidHall. “I just got him theball and he did the rest.He made a great run afterthe catch.”

It remained a six-pointgame until midway

through the fourth quar-ter. This time Hall lofted a38-yard pass into the endzone and wide receiverRandy Horton wrestledthe ball away from twoLebanon defenders for atouchdown.

“I told Randy beforethe play, please catch theball,” commented Hall. “Ihad complete faith in him,he made a great catch.”

What turned out to bethe key play of the gamewas the two-point conver-sion. Hall tossed the ballto Ritchie as the Tigers

went up 14-0 with 6:18 toplay in the game.

“That won the gamefor us,” Hall said. “CoachHubbard just put that playin this week. Ritchie ran alittle hitch and he waswide-open. It worked outfor us.”

There was no quit inthe Pioneers.

They answered ontheir first play fromscrimmage after the kick-off. Wide receiver EricEads got behind theHonaker defense andDuty connected with him

on a 70-yard TD pass.Trevor Owens added thepoint after and it was a 14-7 game.

The fourth Honakerlost fumble of the night,recovered by RyanHubbard gave Lebanonanother shot, as they tookover at the Honaker 29.Sophomore tailback MattHurd had a 25-yard run.After a penalty, Duty thentook it in on a 1-yard quar-terback sneak. But thepoint after sailed wide leftand the Tigers clung to a14-13 lead with just under

five minutes remaining. Honaker had a solid

drive to run down theclock. Lebanon didn’t getthe ball back until only aminute remained andcould not get into fieldgoal range, as the Tigerstook the win.

“I couldn’t be moreproud of the effort theseyoung men gave tonight,”Lebanon coach PhilHenley said. “We had ouropportunities and it justdidn’t work out. I’m proudof the fight in them, theynever gave up.” u

GRUNDY — Despite a series ofinjuries to key players Twin Valley keptit interesting, except on the scoreboard.

Grundy pulled away from thePanthers 36-6 in the season opener forboth clubs Friday night at NelsonMemorial Field.

In his first start at quarterback DylanBilliter helped the Golden Wave take a22-0 first-half lead and helped them pullaway at the end. Billiter was 9-of-11 pass-ing for 172 yards and three touchdownsand ran for 41 yards.

“Billiter did a good job for us throwingthe ball,” Grundy coach Jeremy Wardsaid. “We probably ended up throwingthe ball more than we wanted to do, butTwin Valley did a good job against uswith the running game. They forced us

into more throwing situations than whatwas planned for.”

Billiter threw a 14-yard touchdownpass to Daniel Ellis in the first period andtossed two to Trey Smith in the fourth.The second one to Smith came with 1:20remaining with Grundy already holdinga 29-6 lead over its BDD and BuchananCounty rival.

Nick Travis ran for 162 yards on 21carries, but got 92 of his yards in the firstquarter, including 30 when he broke fourtackles on his way to the game’s firsttouchdown.

Cameron Barbetto did his best to keepthe Panthers, who saw two drives enddeep in Grundy territory, in the gameand probably had the best all-aroundgame on either side.

The under-sized junior ran for 120yards, not much under his weight, on 16carries and made several big stops on

defense.“Cameron Barbetto weighs, I think, a

buck-20 and he carries three and fourdefenders with him,” Twin Valley coachTommy Crigger said. “He plays with somuch heart. He kept us going, offensive-ly and defensively.”

Jake Kowalski, who filled in at quar-terback for the Panthers when ShannonAdams went down with a first-half kneeinjury, tossed a 27-yard TD pass to LoganCantrell that got the Panthers within 22-6 with 7:52 remaining.

Twin Valley, which also had two line-men suffer knee injuries in the contest,saw one possession end on downs inGrundy territory and another, its firstseries of the game, end with a fumble onthe Wave 15-yard line.

“I’m so proud of our kids,” Criggersaid. “The first quarter wasn’t very good,but you can’t say much when Nick Travis

breaks six tackles (on the first touch-down run). But we responded a lot betterthan we did (in our last scrimmage) afterShannon got hurt.

“I thought our offensive line matchedup with (Grundy) very well, and ourdefense, I mean we were giving uptouchdowns all over the place last week.We have 22 people who all work hardevery day, and they didn’t quit.”

Grundy struggled in spots on bothsides of the ball after gaining an early 15-0 lead

“It was the first game and we had a lotof jitters,” the second-year coach said.“But we expected a lot more than we per-formed, across the board, top to bottom,bottom to top. We got a lot of things towork on.”

Grundy’s Wayne Mutter barelymissed a 52-yard field goal try in thethird period. u

VISITING EVANGELIST I visited Abingdon Bible Church last

Sunday to hear internationally knownevangelist Richard Robert Owen ofChicago, Ill. He is 81 years old and heand his wife were there to revive thesaints and help to encourage the folks tobe strong in their faith.

three days of rich messages. He plans toreturn again in September. He is wellworth hearing. Go and see for yourself.

50-yard scamper up the right sideline onCentral’s first play from scrimmage inthe game.

The Warriors, using a motion offense,found the end zone on the drive asStanley punched the ball in from the 10yards out. The PAT kick from StephenSaucier was good to give Central a 7-0lead.

A 50-yard kick return by Cain and a15-yard face mask penalty assessedagainst the Warriors gave the Pioneersthe ball on the Central 28. But, theWarrior defense rose to the occasion tak-ing the ball on downs.

Stanley picked up 30 yards rushingfor the Warriors on their second posses-sion.

After consecutive quarterback keep-ers by Tyler Mullins put the ball on theThomas Walker 1, the game was delayeddue to lightening.

Following the delay, Mullins scoredone of his two rushing touchdowns of thenight on a keeper up the middle.

Saucier’s PAT was good, putting Centralahead 14-0 with 9:33 to play in the firsthalf.

Saucier split the uprights on a 25-yardfield goal to put the Warriors ahead 17-0at halftime.

Thomas Walker scored on its first pos-session of the second half when Eli Davisbroke loose for a 35-yard jaunt up themiddle. Cain converted the two-pointconversion pulling the Pioneers within17-8.

Central then put together a clock-grinding drive capped off by a 1-yarddive by Mullins giving the Warriors a 24-8 advantage.

The Pioneers cut the lead to 24-14before the quarter ended with a 60-yardtouchdown pass from Justin Catron toTyler Scott.

In the fourth quarter, the Warriors usea strong ground game led by Collins andStanley as they racked up plenty ofyardage. Collins added his two touch-down runs in the quarter as well with a14-yard scoring run and a 37-yard scor-ing run to round out the scoring. u

make a play.”Bethel took a 6-0 lead in the first half

from field goals of 35 and 23 yards byRobby Phillips before the Cavs foughtback to take a 7-6 lead when MarcusJones’ 1-yard touchdown plunge andMelshen’s first of three conversion kickscapped a seven-play, 75-yard scoringmarch with 9:28 left in the half.

The big play of UVa-Wise’s first scor-ing march came on a 57-yard pass playfrom sophomore quarterback TyeMarshall to Ryan Bouldin.

Bethel answered with a seven-play,96-yard scoring march that ended with a27-yard TD strike from Masoud to JustinBrandy. Phillips’ conversion gave theWildcats a 13-7 lead with 2:10 left in theopening half.

UVa-Wise lost leading wide receiverMichel Steele’s services in the secondhalf and for the upcoming Faulkner gamewhen he was ejected following the finalplay of the first half for leaving the

team’s bench during a brief scuffle onthe field that drew off-setting personalfoul penalties.

Steele’s absence put added weight onthe Cavs’ running game in the secondhalf and UVa-Wise’s offensive frontresponded under the direction of first-year line coach Luke Logan. Followingthe blocking of Jordan Sandidge, DionteHall, Alex Martin, Michael Barbour,Justin Elliott and others, UVa-Wise’sbacks rushed for 190 yards with 29 car-ries in the second half.

“I told Coach right before the half thatwe could run the football because wewere more physical than they were,”said Sandidge. “Swift ran hard and wewere able to put two big drives togetherto get the lead in the second half.”

UVa-Wise used a 12-play, 90-yardmarch to take a 14-13 lead with a 1-yardsneak by Marshall with 12:34 left in thegame. Swift opened the drive with con-secutive carries that advanced the ballfrom the Cavs’ 10 to the Wildcats’ 28 onthe final six plays of the third quarter.

“This is huge for the team,” saidSwift, a product of Wilson MemorialHigh in Fishersville. “The line opens theholes. It’s my job to read it and hit thehole.”

The Cavs’ next possession producedan 11-play, 76-yard scoring marchcapped by Zach Cochran’s 5-yard TDrun. Melshen’s kick widened the Cavs’lead to 21-13 with 3:30 remaining.

“We started a freshman in his first col-lege game at running back because ourfirst two, Thomas Wright and AndreDickerson, were hurt” said Lusk. “Did heever come through for us or what? Hecan play. He’s got all the tools.

“We didn’t quit, and that’s as good asour line has blocked the run in a longtime.”

Bethel’s veteran team showed with itsfinal possession of the fourth quarterwhy it is picked to win the MSC-West bymarching 75 yards with 12 plays to tiethe game with Masoud’s TD run andMann’s two-point conversion effort.

It was the highlight of an otherwise

frustrating night for the explosive Betheloffense against a swarming, aggressiveUVa-Wise defense that sacked the 6-foot-6, 230-pound Masoud five times. EndA.J. Portee had 2.5 sacks to go with onesack each for Jeremiah Cooke and DerekComer and a shared sack with nose tack-le Walter Mickey.

Other Cavalier defenders producingnegative yardage stops were freshmenEric White and Marcus Hillian and jun-ior Marcus Montgomery.

The biggest defensive play of thenight came on the first play of overtimewhen Nehemiah Jones picked Mann’spocket. Melshen was like money in thebank three snaps after the theft when hedeposited his winning kick following a 5-yard procedure penalty against the Cavs.

“I didn’t feel any pressure and thepenalty didn’t bother me because I knewI had to make it,” Melshen said. “Swifthad a great game and I knew it was myopportunity to help win the game. Icouldn’t miss it because everybody hadplayed so hard.” u
