Delighted cheers drowned out the mur-mured conversations shared by election night revelers on Tuesday, as the vote tally posted on the boards outside the Leader-News revealed Democratic candidate Donna Williams as the next Uvalde County clerk.
Two Democrats and one Republican emerged tri-umphant in three Uvalde County races listed on the Nov. 4 ballot.
Williams claimed the Uvalde County clerk’s spot, besting Republi-can Joyce Altgelt, who received 2,107 votes com-pared to Williams’ 2,980. Early and absentee (mail-in) ballots accounted for 1,026 and 1,801 of those tallies, respectively.
Results for the three county races as well as for the Texas District 80 and U.S. District 23 con-gressional contests were posted outside the Leader-News, as per election-night tradition. Despite drizzling rain, can-didates and dozens of their support-ers stood under umbrel-las and a canopy to await results, which were avail-able before 9 p.m.
The turnout rate for Uvalde County voters was 32.28 percent, with 5,209 of 16,138 eligible voters casting a ballot. In 2012, also a mid-term election, the turnout rate was 53.72 percent.
All Uvalde County voters were able to choose the county clerk. Two other races, for Pct. 1 jus-tice of the peace and Pct. 4 county commissioner,

A Uvalde firefighter hoses down a vehicle Monday morning following a one-vehicle accident on FM 117. The driver was airlifted to University Hospital in San Antonio.
Jennifer Garver has announced her resig-nation from the city of Uvalde following an administrative decision to make the finance direc-tor’s position a full-time endeavor.
Her last day with the city will be Nov. 19.
According to interim
city manager Kerry Sweatt, Garver declined the full-time position, citing family and outside commitments in her resig-nation letter.
Garver was hired as finance director in July 2009, and in April 2010 she was named city manager. She also resumed duties
of the finance director, acting in both capacities, in February 2012 when the position was vacated.
She stepped down as city manager in Septem-ber of this year and has been working part time as finance director.
“The city of Uvalde wishes to thank Mrs.
Garver for her five-plus years of service and wishes her well in her future endeavors,” read a press release from the city.
The announcement was made Tuesday following closed session. City Coun-cil also discussed applica-tions for the position of city manager.
What started as a light sprinkle Tuesday evening increased to steady rainfall Wednes-day and was expected to continue through-out the day and night before dwindling tomorrow evening.
According to meteo-rologist Paul Yura with the National Weather Service, the rain was
brought on by a com-bination of several factors, including an upper-low level pres-sure system, a cold front, and moisture from the Pacific Ocean.
“All of that came together and produced our rainfall,” Yura said, noting that there was a 40 percent chance of rain for today and
20 percent chance for tomorrow.
The official rain tally for the city of Uvalde was .22 inches, as mea-sured by the Uvalde Research Weather Station monitored by Uvalde Agrilife Research Center. The gauge at the Leader-

The event was held Friday at the Uvalde County Stardust Pavilion at the Fairplex.
Organized by the Uvalde Area Chamber of Com-merce, the event is held annually to welcome hunt-ers to Uvalde County and celebrate the start of the season.
According to Olivia Rish, executive director of the chamber, over 2,500 visitors were in attendance during this year’s event.
“Overall our event was a huge success consider-ing it was Halloween and our hometown homecom-ing game,” Rish said. “We appreciate everyone’s sup-port and could not have

Local law enforcement agencies will be teaming up with Santa this holiday season to ensure children in Uvalde County have a very merry Christmas.
The Uvalde Police Officers’ Association is organizing their annual Operation Blue Santa toy drive; and the Uvalde County Sheriff’s Office, in conjunction with the U.S Marshals, U.S Border Patrol and Sabinal Police Department – will hold their second-annual Santa Patrol toy drive. Each event is geared toward supplying toys for chil-dren in need.
In order for children to receive a toy from the UPOA, parents must fill out an application with Uvalde Consolidated Inde-pendent School District’s parenting program liaison Rebecca Cantu.
The deadline to apply is Nov. 21. To contact Cantu, call 830-591-4966, ext. 1320.
When filling out the application, Police Lt. Mariano Pargas asked that parents list all chil-dren under the age of 14 who reside in their home.
“We want to make sure we have enough gifts for all the children in the home,” Pargas said.
Pargas also noted that parents whose children received a toy last year, must reapply this year, for consideration.
The UPOA will distrib-ute toys on Saturday, Dec. 20. Details will appear in a future edition of the
Leader-News.Anyone wishing to
donate to the cause can drop off new, unwrapped toys at the Uvalde Police Department, located at 964 W. Main St., or make cash or check donations.
The preferred price range for toys purchased is $10 to $20.
Last year, the organiza-tion distributed over 450 toys.
“We hope to give away more this year,” Pargas said.
The UPOA is also accepting bicycle dona-tions. Bicycles received will be included in a prize drawing during the toy distribution, slated Dec. 20.
For more information contact Mariano Pargas at 830-278-9147.
The sheriff’s office is also seeking donation for Santa Patrol, which is underway.
The sheriff’s office will collect new and unwrapped toys from now until Dec. 6, when a toy drive will be conducted at Walmart, located at 3100
E. Main St.Anyone interested in
donating before that day can take toys to the sheriff’s office, 339 King Fisher Lane.
Deputies and others will travel throughout Uvalde County to distribute the toys the third weekend of December. More infor-mation on the distribu-tion date will appear in a future edition of the Leader-News.
In order for children to receive a toy from the department, parents must apply in person at the sheriff’s office.
Last year, the depart-ment donated over 300 toys and this year, Deputy Robert Gutierrez said they hope to distribute many more.

Paul Sturm’s new book, “502 rue le Rouge – Death Enters the Convent,” is a masterful story of unflinching observation, spine tingling suspense, and breath-taking turns laced with a complement of human frailties and fear.
It is now available in eBook form through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other leading eBook retailers worldwide.
The print version is cur-rently slated for release in early-2015.
Sturm’s first two books, “Whispers of the Dead” released in 2011, and “The Apostles’ Secret” released in 2013, helped solidify him as an award-winning author.
Sturm, of Uvalde, holds a doctorate from the Uni-versity of Texas and is an ongoing student of arche-ology.
He studied at Assump-tion Seminary and has explored uncharted caves in Mexico. His medical-missionary work in Hon-duras as a dentist enriched his understanding of humanity and his study of hypnosis increased his curiosity of the mind’s capabilities, all contribut-ing to each of his works.
ABOUT THE BOOK“For generations, the
lineage of Margarette Lavalette has passed down from mother to daugh-ter an ancient book of wisdom, a foul book of spells and rituals originat-ing in Africa, old world secrets no one should pos-sess,” reads a press release from Brighton Publish-ing. “When Margarette Lavalette dies violently, the book vanishes. Those who know of its forbidden contents think it’s been destroyed by the mob in an inferno destroying much of the French Quarter.
“At Our Lady of Sor-rows convent, Sister Mary
Agnes is found muti-lated, the first victim of a serial killer target-ing elderly nuns. When Police Detective Sullivan (Sully) Dubois is assigned to the convent to solve the murders, he encounters Sister Rose, his love from high school. Their abrupt separation after a night together has haunted Sul-ly’s dreams since, becom-ing the biggest regret of his life—and unknown to Sully, leaving Rose with a child. Rose is suddenly confronted with a decision that no nun should have to make.
“Celia Battsant, a New Orleans socialite, shares a dark secret with the convent: a link known only to herself and to her secret friend, Picard, the Quasimodo janitor at the convent. She has kept her life in the swamp hidden from her society friends and her husband, Jack, a world-class plastic sur-geon. With Picard’s help, Celia struggles to fulfill what she believes to be
her destiny. “One after another, nuns
are discovered brutally murdered at Our Lady of Sorrows—tortured, the victims of a killer who apparently will stop at nothing. In the midst of a power struggle at the convent as well as in the archdiocese, both the archdiocese and the arch-bishop find themselves inextricably caught up in the murders. A represen-tative from Rome is dis-patched, a cardinal trained as an exorcist, to close the convent down before the convent’s secret is exposed.”
“Author Paul S. Sturm has created another spine-chilling masterfully written story, laced with ratcheted suspense,” said Kathie McGuire, direc-tor of Brighton Publish-ing LLC. “The story is fast paced, yet steeped in detail, surrounded by a panorama of fear, and showcasing the incred-ible writing talent of the author.”

Sturm, award-winning author, releases third novel
THE FOLLOWING was written by Lisa B. Scroggins.
The Claud H. Gilmer Memorial Library in Rocksprings will host a book launch party on Sat-urday with a book sign-ing by local author Aimee Martin.
The event will be held from 10 a.m. to noon. Attendees will be offered a variety of snacks and door prizes.
“We are excited about our grand prize offer-ing,” library director Lisa Scroggins said. “We will be giving away a Kindle.”
“I don’t know what I’m more excited about – having a book launch/book signing party, or the fact that the author is a local Rocksprings resi-dent,” Scroggins said.
Martin’s book “For-ever Home,” is a Christian fiction romance novel. Martin’s self-published novel was first released in eBook format in early 2014.
“Christian romance is not my ‘go to’ genre, but I loved this book,” Scrog-gins said. “I strongly encourage everyone to read it for themselves.”
For many people, writ-ing is a daunting task; however, that’s not the case for this first-time author.
“My youngest daugh-ter was 2, and she was transitioning from being a baby to being a toddler. My older two kids were growing up. I was turn-ing 31, and I was in a sad ‘funk,’” Martin said. “My life was changing, and I wasn’t sure I ready for it. My mom’s advice was I should ‘do what makes you happy.’
“Write, Aimee,” my mom told me. “You’ve
always loved to write.” “So off I went to the
store. I purchased sev-eral legal notepads and a package of pencils, and I came home and wrote,” Martin said. “About six weeks later I had a com-pleted manuscript in front of me.”
“Although the charac-ters in Forever Home are loosely based on people who are a part of my life, they are strictly fictional characters.”
“Originally it wasn’t my intention to get this published. That didn’t happen until we moved to Rocksprings. The move was like a new start: a new life, a new town, new friends, new every-thing… so I thought; why not chase a new dream? I decided I’d take the manuscript I had written and see if I could self-pub-lish it. It just grew from
there.” “Then one day I was
contacted by Mercy Books Editor Leah Lawrence,” Martin said. “She said she had read my book and wanted to take me on as a client.”
The two spent five months editing and reworking the novel, which was re-released in July again as an eBook. The paperback version was released on October 1st.
“This is just all so sur-real,” Martin said about publishing a novel. “Actu-ally, it’s awesome. It’s an amazing feeling to know that people have read my book, and have enjoyed it. It’s hard to comprehend that many who read it are spreading the word, and are recommending it to others.”
A member of the Romance Writers of
America (RWA), Martin’s book has been submitted to the RITA Award Com-mittee for consideration for their annual award.
RWA selects one book from each romance genre annually, and Forever Home has been submit-ted for their consider-ation. Because they limit submissions to 2,000 total books nationwide, being considered for a RITA Award is quite an honor.
“There are millions of self-published books out there,” Martin said, “so knowing my book is in the running is amazing. It’s a cool feeling.”
Martin and her hus-band, Jeff, moved to Rocksprings from Lake Jackson in July, 2013. The couple has three children. Their son Braeden is 12 years old, and daughters Ella and Laura are 8 and 4 years old respectively.

Moises Santiago has been named chief financial officer for Uvalde Consoli-dated Independent School District. He will come to UCISD from La Pryor ISD, where he serves in the same capacity.
He replaces Becky Rob-inson, who is retiring after one and-a-half years with the district and over 35 years in the field of educa-tion.
The details were final-
ized Monday night during a special school board meet-ing held in the Uvalde High School library. Trustees Willie Edwards and Carlos Fernandez were absent.
Trustees voted unani-mously to increase the current automobile reim-bursement rate, set at 50 cents a mile, to match those given to state employees. The new rate is 56 cents a mile.
Jeanette Ball, district superintendent, gave a report that showed three of the seven UCISD campuses
have a 100-percent rate of highly-qualified teach-ers: Batesville Elemen-tary, Flores Middle School, and Morales Junior High School.
Anthon Elementary has 97.1 percent HQT; Benson Elementary, 88.9 percent; Dalton Early Childhood Center, 97.3 percent; Robb Elementary, 97 percent; and UHS, 90.8 percent.
“This year we had sev-eral vacancies we could not fill,” said Ball. “Most have a certification, but not in the subject they are teaching.”
She said that those teach-ers should be certified for their new subjects come December. She also men-tioned that the district reimburses any certifica-tion fees spent when asked to change subjects by administration.
Trustee Maria Martinez wanted to make sure that notice was sent out to all parents of students in these classes. Ball assured her letters went out six weeks ago.
It was also mentioned that the number of people
seeking teaching certifica-tions is down across the board, even at the elemen-tary level.
In other business trust-ees approved an agreement with Texas Health and Human Services Commis-sion. The current agree-ment expires in December and renewal is no cost to the district.
During closed session trustees approved the hire of Santiago as CFO and Denise Avalos, who will teach kindergarten at Dalton.
They accepted the res-ignation of Robinson and Amanda Dockal from Dalton.
The special meeting was preceded by a public meting at 6 p.m. regarding Financial Integrity Rating System of Texas (FIRST). UCISD received an “above standard” rating by Texas Education Agency. The rating was approved during the special meeting that fol-lowed.

Opening prayers will be said by the Uvalde de las Encinas Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. The pledge of allegiance will be recited by Lalo Zamora.

THE FOLLOWING was submitted by Laura Nelson, director of media, public relations and outreach at Sul Ross State University – Rio Grande College.
Over 500 community members, students, fac-ulty, and staff from the Medina Valley Indepen-dent School District, Southwest Texas Junior College, and Sul Ross State University Rio Grande College celebrated the grand opening of the Higher Learning Center last week.
The new building expands the MVISD campus located just out-side Castroville and it also increases the reach of SWJTC and RGC. The two will begin offering classes in the Higher Learn-ing Center for the spring semester beginning Jan. 20, 2015. The new building features four classrooms that have state-of-the-art technology with 80 inch screens used for telecon-ference classes. It also includes two computer labs/study centers and a fully-equipped chemistry lab.
Superintendent James
Stansberry and the MVISD school board envi-sioned a place where not only their students, but area community mem-bers would have access to higher education. That vision became a reality in the Higher Learning Center. Mr. Stansberry, SWTJC President Hector Gonzalez and SRSU Presi-dent Bill Kibler all spoke of the services the Center will provide. The Red Vests of the Castroville Chamber of Commerce led the ribbon cutting cer-emony.
Visitors toured the new building, socialized with faculty and staff from the three schools, and learned more about the educational opportuni-ties the new site affords. The Chill’in and Grill’in barbecue team pro-vided guests with deli-cious smoked brisket and ribs as well as tasty bacon wrapped sausage and peppers. Members of the team include Kyle Sandvig, Brandon Haby, Vincent Guevara, Chris Prater, Patrick Wilson, and Yvette Huffman.
Paul Sorrels, Asso-ciate Provost/Dean of RGC said, “Sul Ross Rio Grande College is extremely excited to be part of this Higher Learn-ing Center partnership. This promises to be an exceptional service oppor-tunity to the residents of the Medina Valley region. RGC has over 30 years of experience in 3 other locations of bring-ing transformative edu-cational opportunities to adult students and others who cannot leave home to attend a traditional residential university. With the lowest tuition and fees in the state of Texas, accessible entrance requirements, and conve-nient locations, this facil-ity and RGC’s programs will become an integral part of the economic and cultural development of the region. The vision of the Medina Valley Inde-pendent School District to offer full life span educa-tional options will be a major factor in the excit-ing future growth in the area west of San Anto-nio.”

So several cosmetolo-gists agreed to use their skills for the greater good and perform haircuts and
donate all proceeds to the families of Martinez and Ramos.
“We encourage every-one to come out and help us raise money,” Jordan said.

Those attending the homecoming football game Friday night were treated to a blast from the past as the Uvalde High School cheerleaders dusted off an old tradi-tion by erecting a large run-through sign for the Coyotes.
“That is a tradition I knew alumni would appreciate, and we had a lot of fans comment about it,” said cheerlead-ing sponsor Monica Velas-quez. “Also, the JV squad cheering the entire game was another tradition that we brought back. I am very pleased with my girls, they have done an amazing job.”
She said they all work well together and are forming bonds as friends despite age differences. At the beginning of the summer, Velasquez was the one pushing them in the right direction and now they are pushing and encouraging themselves.
She said they couldn’t
have managed building the sign without donations from local businesses, as they donated pvc pipes for the sign and have helped with T-shirt and backpack costs throughout the year.
She also wanted to thank the great Uvalde sports
fans, especially for their road support.
“In Eagle Pass last month we had more fans on our side then they did on the home side,” she said. “At the homecoming game Friday, when we went to the other side of the sta-
dium, all we could hear was people yelling ‘Go Coy-otes.’”
She is also excited to report that administration has approved both a winter and spring pep rally, a once-staple that has come and gone over the last decade.

Texas Home Furnishings is conducting its fourth-annual Trim-a-Tree for charity food drive.
The Christmas-themed contest runs through Dec. 19 and offers cash prizes for winning non-profit groups and collects non-perishable goods for the Uvalde Food Pantry.
Michael Swift, store manager, said employees at Texas Home Furnishing set up 10 Christmas trees in the store, and choose 10 non-profit organizations to participate by deco-rating one of the trees to their liking.
“Some of the trees we get are just fantastic,” Swift said. “We have seen everything from fishing lures to antique dolls.”
The idea is for commu-nity members to come into the store with the canned
food they want to donate, and place the goods underneath the tree they like best.
“The groups get really creative when it comes to fundraising,” Swift said, noting that last year one of the groups held a dance and used canned food items for currency.
Prizes will be awarded to the trees with the most canned goods. First place receives $200, second place $100, and third place $50.
At the end of the con-test, all of the food is donated to the Uvalde Food Bank.
“Last year, we donated around 7,000 cans,” Swift said. “We are really pleased with the turn-out each year. It is a great community project and a big help to the food pantry.”

Kick-off time for the Uvalde-Medina Valley junior varsity football game is set for 5 p.m.
Originally, the game was scheduled for a 6 p.m. kickoff, but the time was moved up by one hour by a mutual agreement between the schools.
Kick-off time for the Uvalde-MV freshman foot-

UHS lost two sub-var-sity football games played against the Southside Car-dinals Thursday night.

In the freshman game at the Honey Bowl, the Uvaldeans scored three touchdowns as quarter-back Domingo Davila com-bined with wide receiver Manuel De La Garza for touchdown passes of 51, 13, and 30 yards.

Uvaldeans win one match in regional team tennisThe Uvalde High School
tennis team won one match and lost two matches in Class 5A Region IV team tennis tournament competi-tion last Friday and Satur-day at San Antonio.
After losing to Boerne Champion, 19-0, in their first match last Friday, Coach Terri Rambie’s Coy-otes and Lobos bounced back to defeat Pharr-San Juan-Alamo Southwest, 10-9, later Friday.
On Saturday, the young Uvaldeans lost to George-town, 10-0.
With their 1-2 perfor-mance in the regional event, the Uvaldeans finished the 2014 team tennis season with a 13-9 record.
“With the ups and downs that we had this season, I was totally pleased with the way our players performed in the regional tourna-ment,” said Coach Rambie.
“Our players gave all that
they had in their matches Friday and Saturday,” said Rambie. “We may have been a little flat because of all of the homecoming activities.
“We faced three quality teams in the regional tour-nament. We competed well and I think our young kids gained a lot of experience,” said Rambie.
“This was a successful year for our team tennis program. With all but three players returning next season, we should have the makings for an even better year in 2015,” said Rambie.
UHS swept all six girls’ singles matches against P-SJ-A Southwest.

Uvalde High School’s Joslynn Griffin returns a shot dur-ing a team tennis singles match earlier this season.
Going into the final week of high school regular-sea-son football competition, the post-season playoff picture has yet to come into sharp focus for Dis-trict 29-5A football teams.
Both the Uvalde Coyotes, 5-1 in district and 8-1 for the season, and the Somer-set Bulldogs, 5-1 in district and 6-2, have clinched a playoff spot. They both are tied for first place in the district team standings.
Tomorrow night, Somer-set will host the Eagle Pass Winn Mavericks, while the Coyotes will be on the road to play the Medina Valley Panthers at Castroville.
Southside’s Cardinals, 4-2 in district and 7-2 for the season, are in third place. The Cardinals need a win over the Laredo
Cigarroa Toros to clinch a post-season playoff spot.
Medina Valley, 3-3 in dis-trict and 3-6 for the season, are tied for fourth place
with Eagle Pass Winn, 3-3 and 4-5.
Should MV and Winn remain tied for fourth place following district action tomorrow, Medina Valley will advance to the playoffs because the Pan-thers beat Winn in head-to-head district play.
Winn needs to beat Som-erset and for MV to lose for the Mavericks to claim fourth place and the final playoff berth.
Cigarroa, 2-4 and 4-5, could still claim the fourth spot in the district, if MV and Winn both lose and if the Toros beat Southside.
The Toros have the pos-itive-points advantage, if they end up in a three-way tie with MV and Winn.

large school, and Divi-sion II, i.e., small school cannot be determined until the top four place-ments in District 29-5A are finalized.
Should Southside and Medina Valley wind up as the other two play-off teams in 29-5A, then Uvalde would be in Divi-sion I as the top-seeded team.
If Southside and either Winn or Cigarroa make it to the playoffs, then Uvalde would be in Dis-trict II as the second-seeded team.
Next week, District 29-5A teams will go up against District 30-5A teams in bi-district play.
The Flour Bluff Hor-
The Uvalde Coyotes will wind up their 2014 regular-season football schedule tomorrow night when they travel to Castroville to take on the Medina Valley Panthers.
Kick-off time for the District 29-5A contest is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.
Coach Steve Hale’s Pan-thers, 3-3 in district play and 3-6 for the season, come into the game tomor-row following their best overall performance of the season.
Last Saturday at Laredo, the Panthers trounced the Laredo Martin Tigers in a 47-7 rout.
“Medina Valley has a lot of good players and they are a well-coached ball club. The Panthers are much better than their record might seem to indi-cate,” said Coach Griffin. “They struggled in some
of their games earlier this season, but they are play-ing their best football right now.”
Offensively, the Pan-thers are led by the play of senior quarterback Brad-ley Griggs.
Last Saturday, Griggs rushed for 195 yards and three touchdowns. He also passed for 81 yards.
“Griggs is just a great overall athlete. He runs with the ball and throws the ball well,” said Griffin. “Griggs had a huge game against Martin last Satur-day night.”
Joining Griggs in MV’s backfield are tailback Kristian Williams and full-back Tristian Stivors.
Williams totaled 202 yards and scored three touchdowns last Saturday.
MV has several out-standing pass receivers, including Zach Griggs,
Cody Moos, and Nick Lara.“The Panthers have a lot
of offensive weapons at their disposal. Their backs all run hard and their pass receivers all are sure-handed receivers,” said Griffin.
Up front, the Panthers boast size and quickness in tackles Paul Neuman and Justin Torres, guards Adriana Mata and Ben Rihn, and center Mason Foster.
“Year in and year out, Medina Valley puts together a great offensive line. This year is no dif-ferent,” said Griffin. “The Panthers run block and pass block very well.”
Defensively, MV is led up front by nose guard Joseph Martinez, and ends Nick Lara and Grayson Russell.

Uvalde High School cross-country runners competed in the Class 5A Region IV meet last Saturday. Team members include: (left to right) Jackie Gomez, Kate Roman, Abby Perez, Katie Castillo, Gabby Gonzales, Kaela Maldonado, Ciara Rodriguez, Mabel Fowler, Coach Libby Guzman, and Aaron Whitehead (in the second row).
UHS runnersvie in regional
Uvalde High School was represented by seven girls and one boy in the Class 5A Region IV cross-country running meet last Saturday at San Antonio.
Though the Uvaldeans turned in good individual times, none of them were able to qualify for the state cross-country meet.
Gabby Gonzales, the Dis-trict 29-5A girls’ champion, recorded a regional time of 19 minutes and 51 seconds.
Gonzales finished four seconds behind the final state qualifier.
The times for the other UHS girls who competed in the race included: Mabel
Fowler, 21:08; Abby Perez, 22:00; Ciara Rodriguez, 22:53; Kaela Maldonado, 23:45; Kati Castillo, 24:04; and Kate Roman, 25:09.
Aaron Whitehead was the lone UHS runner in the Class 5A Region IV boys race.
Whitehead ran his per-sonal-best time of 18 min-utes and 47 seconds, but it was not fast enough to qualify him for state.
“Our student-athletes represented Uvalde very well in the regional meet,’ said UHS head cross-coun-try coach Libby Guzman. “I could not have asked for a better effort from these kids. Almost everyone
recorded a personal best.“Gabby came close to
qualifying for state. She ran a great race,” said Guzman.
“It was an emotional day
for all of us as our season came to an end,” said Guzman. “I am proud of these student athletes. We had an awesome season.
The future looks bright for Uvalde High School cross-country.”
The Uvalde girls recently claimed the District 29-5A
cross-country title, while Aaron Whitehead finished among the top individual runners in the district boys’ race.
nets are the District 30-5A champions.
Victoria West’s War-riors and Gregory-Port-land’s Wildcats are tied for second place, while
“We have faced a lot of good nose guards this year, but Joseph Martinez is the best that we have seen,” said Griffin.
Medina Valley’s line-backing corps includes outside backers Kyle Moos and Tristian Stivors, and inside backers Cody Ser-geant and Shae Sergeant, while the deep second-ary features cornerbacks Baylor Bippert and Paul Hernandez, strong safety Cody Burris and free safety Cody Moos.
“Medina Valley’s defen-sive unit is quick and very physical,” said Griffin.

the 2014 volleyball season for the Uvalde Lobos Tuesday night as they recorded a 25-22, 25-21, 12-25, and 25-22 victory in a hard-fought, bi-district match played at Floresville.
“It was a tough game. We were pretty evening matched against Flour Bluff,” said Uvalde High School head volleyball coach Jessica Campbell.
“I am proud of our girls and what they accomplished this season,” said Campbell. “Our seniors played a key role in leadership. I could not have
asked for more from all our players this season. Our girls worked hard and proved themselves.”
With the loss to Flour Bluff, the Lobos ended their 2014 season with a record of 19-21.
Sydney Mueller led the Lobos in kills against Flour Bluff with 15 kills.
Payton Redfearn topped UHS in assists with 27. She also served up one ace.
Gloria Perez came up with 20 digs.Ale Garza totaled five defensive
blocks.
On Oct. 28, the Lobos ended Dis-trict 29-5A play as they racked up a 25-19, 25-15, and 25-21 sweep over the Laredo Cigarroa Lady Toros in action in Uvalde High School’s Harvey Kinchlow Gym.
Sydney Mueller led the Lobos in kills with 17. She also blocked two shots.
Payton Redfearn totaled 28 assists and made 21 defensive digs.

STANDINGS: Playoff spots up for grabs
“They play sound, assign-ment football.
“We anticipate a tough game Friday,” said Grif-fin. “The Panthers need a win over us to get into the playoffs. The game Friday is the final home game for their seniors. I know the Panthers will be coming at us with their very best effort of the season.”
Coach Griffin’s Coy-otes, 5-1 in district and 8-1 for the season, clinched a post-season playoff berth as they defeated the South-side Cardinals, 21-14, last Friday night in the Honey Bowl.
“It was a huge victory for our kids. The Coyotes
accomplished a lot with the win last Friday,” said Griffin. “We fulfilled our part of homecoming by winning the game. We also send our seniors on the team away with a win in their last game ever in the Honey Bowl. And we clinched a post-season playoff spot.
“We missed out on some early scoring opportuni-ties against Southside, but we came through with some big plays when we needed them, especially in the second half,” said Grif-fin. “Overall, we played a good game.”
Griffin said that this week, the Coyotes have
faced the challenge of having to prepare for a third consecutive tough opponent in practice.
“The way our schedule worked out, we have had to play our three tough-est district opponents in three consecutive weeks,” said Griffin. “It would be nice to savor our win over

If Winn or Cigarroa take the fourth spot, then the Coyotes would most likely play Gregory-Portland.
Southside, but we face another tough opponent in Medina Valley this week.”
No starting lineup changes are planned for the Medina Valley game tomorrow night as Grif-fin and his staff will go with essentially the same lineup that they used for the Southside game.
“We don’t plan any major changes. We just want to do a better job of tackling and blocking,” said Griffin. “We know we have to play better funda-mental football. We still haven’t played a complete game. We need to play four solid quarters of football Friday night.”
Laning wins $50 contest prizescore of the game – Texas 34, Texas Tech 13.
Robert Camarillo had a tie-breaker score of Texas 27, Tech 17 which was second closest. He won the $40 second prize.
An entry for Food For The Poor Inc. had a tie-breaker score of Texas 27, Tech 24, which was the third closest score. That entry won the $30 third prize.
Lydia Moss and Diego Ovalle also missed on only five contest games, but they each picked Texas Tech to beat Texas.
In this week’s contest, there is a mistake as the Cotulla-Dilley game was mistakenly listed.
Contest entrants will be given credit for that football game played this last Friday night.

SABINAL
NUECES CANYON
The Sabinal High School Veteran’s Day ceremony, which is organized annually by student council mem-bers, will be held Tues-day, although there is a change in tradition this year.
A long-standing tradi-tion on Veteran’s Day has been for the senior class to meet with vet-
erans after the assembly to place a wreath at the veterans memorial located at the city park.
This year, the wreath will be placed before the cer-emony.
The senior class will gather at the city park to place the wreath at 10 a.m.
All local veterans and their family members are invited to meet at the park near the memorial marker at 9:50 a.m.
Afterward, the senior class and veterans will go to the high school gymnasium for the 11 a.m. Veteran’s Day assembly.
For more information, contact student council sponsor Raquel Esquivel at 830-988-2475.

Athletic director Jason Keller requests that all athletes and parents line up by the field house at the end zone at 6:15 as activi-ties are set to start at 6:20 p.m.
The Sabinal Lady Jacket volleyball team lost on Nov. 1, when they took on the D’Hanis Cowgirls to fight for their ranking in district.

The pieces played
included 1980s hit “We’re Not Gonna Take It,” a spe-cial cadence conducted by the Sabinal drum line, and “Thriller.”
To add onto the special and fun performance, the students dressed in cos-tume for the game. Band director Zachary Sims donned a gorilla costume to conduct the band on the field.
During the songs and drum cadence break, the students danced, clapped, and had fun with the music. After the entire per-formance, the band threw candy to spectators.
The Sabinal band will continue to have new shows as their halftime performance for the remaining football games.

The Panthers traveled to Leakey on Friday night and fell to the home team 46-24. The Panthers got behind early, 8-0, but bat-tled back after a six-yard run by Bradley Reed for the Panthers first score.
The two-point conver-sion to Wesley Harmon made the score 8-8. The Panthers came within 15 yards of the end zone twice more in the first half – but could not get in – and Leakey held a deci-sive 32-8 lead at the half.
The Panthers were able to get on the board late in the third quarter as Bailey Gober found Jose Gonzalez for a 15-yard touchdown. The two-point play to Harmon was again good to make the score 40-16.
The Panthers scored one final time as Bailey Gober rushed in from 12 yards out, and 2 points from Bradley Reed made the final score 46-24. Bradley Reed led the offense catching eight balls for 73 yards and rushing nine times for 54 yards and a score. Gober was 14 of 26 for 149 yards and a touchdown, while also rushing nine times for 86 yards and a score.

Students at St. Philip’s School scramble for treats in their first ever Trunk or Treat Fest. Parents decorated their vehicles and students had a great time receiving treats at each vehicle.
JOY WATKINS
St. Philip’s Episcopal School students celebrate Red Ribbon Week on Oct. 29 by sporting sunglasses to “shade out drugs.” Each day of the week represented a differ-ent drug-free theme.
THE FOLLOWING was submitted by the Rev. Ken Kemble.
The Rev. Ken Kemble of Uvalde recently completed an overseas revival cru-sade to the United King-dom, this time preaching mostly in the north of Eng-land, in the Lancaster area.
In the Harrop Fold area, his host took Kemble and his party to Epworth, where he had arranged for a private tour of the child-hood home of John Wesley, a founder of Methodism.
John Wesley, Charles Wesley, and their siblings lived there as children with their parents, Samuel and Susanna Wesley. Samuel was the rector of St. Andrew’s.
An interesting account of John Wesley was learned from their host, historian
Frank Robinson. On Sunday, June 6, 1742,
John returned to Epworth for a visit. Prior to the Sunday service, he had offered to assist the curate with the service, but the curate would have none of it.
But word had gotten out of John Wesley’s arrival in town and a great crowd had gathered in antici-pation that he would be preaching.
Since he was not permit-ted to assist with the ser-vice, and seeing so many people there who had come to see and hear him, he had planned to preach out in the church yard after the service.
That not sitting well with the curate either, John Wesley mounted his father’s gravestone there
in the church yard and said that he could not be denied because it was family prop-erty. He preached every evening of that week to large crowds from atop his father’s grave.
When they visited St. Andrews, Kemble, an evangelist at heart, could not help but avail him-self of the opportunity to stand where Wesley had
preached. He jumped up onto Samuel Wesley’s grave for an impromptu sermon.
“This trip was especially memorable because some-one in the church made it possible for me to take my wife along this time.
It was a most memorable trip, and the blessing of the Lord was evident through-out,” Kemble said.
Kemble completes revival crusade overseas
Uvalde Memorial Hospi-tal graduated seven com-munity members on Oct. 27 from the first Diabetes Empowerment Education Program (DEEP) class offered at the hospital.
The four-week long dia-betes self-management course focused on teach-ing attendees how to live a healthier life with diabe-tes.
The group met on four consecutive Mondays from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. and learned through games, activities, and sup-port conversations.
Topics covered include: understanding the human body; understanding risk factors for diabetes; moni-toring the body; physical activity; management of diabetes through meal planning; diabetes com-plications: identification and prevention; learn-ing about medications
and medical care; living with diabetes: mobiliz-ing family and friends; finding out how diabe-tes affects the body; and making sense of blood sugar numbers.
The class is a great resource for diabetics and non-diabetics, caregivers, and health care person-nel.
The program is part of a curriculum offered by the Texas Department of State Health Services and Long Live Texans and is taught locally through Uvalde Memo-rial Hospital community and clinical educators, Pauline Garcia, RN and Dawn Scott, LVN. Garcia and Scott completed a three-day course offered by Long Live Texans to become DEEP course instructors.
Information and dates on the next DEEP course
will be available soon. Tentatively the course will be offered again in early December, but course length and times
will change. For additional informa-
tion, contact Dawn Scott, community educator, at 830-278-6251, ext. 1520.
