NASHVILLE - A Texarkana woman was arrested here Tuesday after
police say she stabbed
her boyfriend during an
altercation.
Phyllis Dawson, 55,
was taken into custody
around 9 p.m. at a residence on Jacques St.
after the Nashville Police
Department received a
report of a man being
stabbed.
According to the incident report, the arrest
took place after the alleged victim of the stabbing told police he had
been drinking liquor with
the suspect throughout
the course of the day.
“He stated that Phyllis
told him that she wanted
more liquor and he told
her that she didn’t need
anymore liquor,” police
wrote in the report. “[The
victim] stated that Phyllis

THE
GUITAR
MAN
Local luthier
turned a hobby
into a career
D.E. RAY
News Staff
Greg Nunley had a
hobby, which became a
career, which turned into
a passion. Nunley Lutherie,
which occupies the same
space as Mainstreet Musician
Supply, Nunley’s other business
in Nashville, caters to collectors
and users of fine stringed instruments.
Nunley had been doing instrument
restoration as a hobby for several
years before starting his business, but
didn’t plan on taking up that hobby, he
explained.
“I’ve always done artwork, always done
woodwork, always had a wide range of interests,” he said during a recent interview. “That
lends itself well to this. I found myself doing it.”
He described his work as a luthier - a craftsman of stringed instruments - as being focused on restoration, especially of vintage Gibson and Martin guitars. Though
there are several luthiers in Arkansas, most others focus on the building or manufacture of new instruments. He said that most of the instruments that come to him
for restoration or repair come from north Arkansas, Missouri and Tennessee.
Nunley described some of the more unusual restorations and customizations
that he has done: a violin that was stored in a hot, humid environment until the
glue holding it failed, leaving the instrument in dozens of pieces; a mandolin that
wasn’t wearing its seatbelt during a car accident; and adding frets and LED lighting
to violin fingerboards so they can be played in dark places.
The most interesting, though, was a Knutsen “one-armed” harp guitar made between 1902 and 1904 that was found in a local attic. The instrument is one of only

to the kitchen where he
was and pulled a knife
and stabbed him in his
left side.”
The report indicates
that the victim was
transported to Howard
Memorial Hospital for
treatment, while Dawson was located hiding
behind a refrigerator at
the Jacques St. residence.
Dawson allegedly admitted to stabbing the
victim in an interview,
but stated that it was in
self defense.
“Phyllis stated that
[the victim] had been hitting on her all day,” police
said in the report. “She
stated that she was tired
of being beat on so she
went to the kitchen and
got a knife and stabbed
[the victim] to defend
herself.”
The report indicates
that no visible marks
w e re d i s c o v e re d o n
Dawson’s body. She is
charged with second degree battery.
Scrappers to don
blue ribbons in
honor of Click

NASHVILLE - In an effort to raise awareness
about prostate cancer
and honor legendary basketball coach Willie Click,
the Nashville Scrappers
will sport blue ribbons
during the game against
Central Arkansas Christian this Friday night.
Prostate cancer develops in one out of every
six men, and the rate
jumps to a staggering
one in three men in the
African-American community and for those men
who have a family history
of the disease.
Prostate cancer is the
second leading cancer
killer behind lung cancer,
and is the second most
diagnosed cancer in men
behind skin cancer. In
Arkansas, higher rates
of men die from prostate cancer than women
die from breast cancer,
according to the
Arkansas
Central
Cancer
Registry.
The average age
CLICK
at diagnosis of prostate cancer in
the United States is 69
years and after that age
the chance of developing
prostate cancer becomes
more common than any
other cancer in men or
women.
Click passed away at
the age of 78 in April of
this year from prostate
cancer. He was a passionate coach and teacher
that touched the lives
of students for over 40
years while making a
lifetime commitment to
basketball.

coach basketball since
I was six or seven years

NASHVILLE - The Cross
Point Cowboy Church held
its camp meet from Sept. 29
through Oct. 2, gathering
for worship and fellowship
each evening. On Tues.,
Oct. 1 the congregation and
guests gathered to sup on a
plate of spaghetti, biscuits
and salad with a desert
while they listened to God’s
word.
Guest speaker Mike

tend to question God when
they feel alone or some-

thing unfortunate befalls
them: “Where is He and
why does he let bad things
happen to us or to those
close to us?’
When he speaks to the
youth, Cranford uses his
own life as an example of
bad things that happen to
good people. On Aug. 6,
1988 he had a swimming
accident in the Red River
that broke his neck at the
C6 vertebra. A C6 injury
affects wrist extension and
typically causes paralysis
in the hands, trunk and
legs.
At 23, Cranford was
confined to a wheelchair,
where he endured some
dark times through the
recovery process - until he
found God.
After talking with the
youth about his experience, he supplied the scripture Jeremiah 29:11-14,
which states, “For I know
the plans I have for you,”
declares the Lord, “plans
to prosper you and not to
harm you, plans to give
you hope and a future.
Then you will call on me
and come and pray to me,
and I will listen to you. You
will seek me and find me
when you seek me with all
your heart. I will be found
by you,” declares the Lord,
“and will bring you back
from captivity. I will gather
you from all the nations
and places where I have

Destroying
household jobs
Despite evidence from around the world that
minimum wage laws can price low-skilled workers
out of jobs, the U.S. Department of Labor is planning
to extend minimum wage coverage to domestic workers, such as maids or those who drop in from time to
time to do a few household chores for the sick and
the elderly.
This coverage is scheduled to begin in January 2015
— that is, after the 2014 elections and nearly two years
before the 2016 elections. Politicians show a lot of
cleverness in protecting
their own interests, even
THomAS
if they show very little
wisdom as far as serving
SoweLL
the public interest.
Creators
If making household
Syndicate
workers subject to the
minimum wage law is expected to produce good
results, why not let those good results begin early,
so that voters will know about them before the next
election?
But, if this new extension of the minimum wage
law opens a whole new can of worms — as is more
likely — politicians who support this extension want
to insulate themselves from a voter backlash. Hence
artfully choosing January 2015 as the effective date,
to minimize the political risks to themselves.
The reason this particular extension of the minimum wage law is likely to open a can of worms is that
both household workers and those who employ them
will face more complications than employers and employees in industry or commerce.
First of all, ill or elderly individuals who need someone to help them from time to time are not like employers who have a business that regularly hires people
and may have a personnel department to handle all
the paperwork and keep up with all the legal requirements when government bureaucrats are involved.
Often the very reason for hiring part-time household workers is that some ill or elderly individuals
have limited energy or capacity for handling things
that were easy to handle when they were younger or
in better health. Bureaucratic paperwork and legal
technicalities are the last thing they need to have to
add to their existing problems.
The people being hired to do household chores also
have special problems.
Often such people have limited education, and may
also have limited knowledge of the English language.
Why make it harder for ill or elderly people to get
some much-needed help in their homes, and harder
for low-skilled people to get some much-needed jobs?
Despite all the talk about how we need more people
with high-tech skills, there is also a need for people
who can help clean a home or carry groceries or do
other things that need doing, and which do not require
years of schooling. As the elderly become an ever
growing proportion of the population, there will be a
growing demand for such people.
More precisely, there would be more jobs for such
people if the government did not step in to complicate
the hiring process and price potential workers out of
jobs, with minimum wages set by third parties who do
not, and cannot, know what the economic realities are
for either the ill and the elderly or for those whom the
ill and the elderly wish to hire.
Minimum wage laws in general are usually set
with no real knowledge of the economic realities and
alternatives for either employers or employees. Third
parties are simply enabled to indulge themselves by
imagining what is "fair" — and pay no price for being
wrong about the actual economic consequences.
That is why countries with minimum wage laws
usually have much higher rates of unemployment than
those few places where there have been no minimum
wage laws, such as Switzerland or Singapore — or the
United States, before the first federal minimum wage
law was passed in 1931.
Government interventions in labor markets have
already created needless complications, and not just
by minimum wage laws. The welfare state has already
taken out of the labor market millions of people who
could perform work that would be well within the capacity of inexperienced young people or people with
limited education.
With welfare, such people can stay home, watch
television, do drugs or whatever — or else they can
hang out in the streets, often confirming the old adage
that the devil finds work for idle hands.

Louis ‘Swampy’ Graves,
Beltway lies in the Obamacare war
"In wartime, truth is so
precious that she should
always be attended by a
bodyguard of lies," said
Winston Churchill.
What is the truth behind the Beltway lies
about these crazy Republicans crashing our
government?
Twice in the last week
House Republicans have
voted unanimously to
fund the U.S. government.
If national polls are to
be believed, those House
Republicans are doing exactly what America wants.
A majority of Americans
oppose a government
shutdown. And a majority
oppose Obamacare.
Who, then, is preventing the government from
being funded?
Harry Reid and Barack
Obama. Neither will accept any continuing resolution that does not contain Obamacare. Both will
shut down this city rather
than accept any such CR.
It is Harr y and Barry who are saying: If we
don't get full funding of
Obamacare now, we shutdown Washington until
the House delivers.
The battle, then, is over
this question: Will the
next great liberal entitlement program, Obamacare, with its manifest
failings and flaws, be imposed upon the nation —
against its will?
The House says no. The
Beltway says yes.
Few disagree that, in
any national plebiscite,
Obamacare would be buried in a landslide. Few disagree that if Obamacare
were put to a vote of the
Congress today, it would
fail in both houses.
Why, then, is it radical
for the House to use its
power of the purse to defund a program America
does not want?
Why is it statesmanship for Obama to say he
will shut down the entire
government if any resolution to keep it running
contains even the slightest tweak to his cherished
program?
What these questions
suggest is that this is at
root a political and ideological war, and the Beltway has assembled its
usual bodyguard of lies
and liars to conceal that
truth.
Consider this keening
from the Washington Post
yesterday about the terrible consequences of a
government shutdown:
"[W]e would hope that
Mr. Boehner would have
compassion for thousands of moderately paid
breadwinners who would
find themselves in very
difficult circumstances.
We would hope he would
be troubled by how a
shutdown would disrupt
research at the National
Institute of Health and
safety inspections at the
Food and Drug Adminis-
PAT
BuCHANAN
Creators
Syndicate
tration."
About this lugubrious
passage, several questions:
Since Reid and Obama
have both said they will
block any CR that does
not contain Obamacare
in its pristine form, why
are they not charged with
some responsibility for a
shutdown?
Answer: The Post is not
interested in conveying
the truth about this conflict, because in this battle
it is as much a political
ally of Obama as Debbie
Wasserman Schultz.
But it is a more effective ally, since some still
presume it is being truthful and objective.
Assume that today
John Boehner came out
and said at a press conference: "I have taken note of
the Post's concerns about
an interruption of service
at NIH and the FDA. I share
those concerns. Therefore, at my direction, the
House will vote this afternoon to fully fund both
agencies."
Anyone think the Washington Post would celebrate Boehner's compassion and statesmanship
the next morning?

Of course not. All this
weeping and gnashing
of teeth about the terrible consequences of a
government shutdown is
designed to whip up political animosity, direct it at
House Republicans, and
break John Boehner. Failing that, it is to foist upon
the House Republicans
full responsibility for a
shutdown that the House
has voted twice to avoid.
What this battle confirms is that, on major
national issues that pit
social and populist conser vatives against Big
Government liberals, the
Beltway press corps invariably acts like a wholly
owned subsidiary of the
Democratic National Committee.
More problematic,
there is a slice of the
Beltway right — the contributions bundlers and
kennel-fed conservatives,
the summer soldiers and
sunshine patriots, the
George McClellans — that
prefers prancing, parading and posturing to the
actual fighting.
With them the excuses
are always the same. We
can't win. We have been
beaten on this terrain
before. The press will kill
us. The White House has
a microphone we can't
match. We will only hurt
ourselves in the polls
and throw away our great
opportunity in the coming election. Besides, our
corporate contributors
don't want this fight.
Some "conservatives"
even cynically suggest
that the GOP let Obamacare take effect, as it
will prove such a disaster
there will be a backlash
against it in 2014 — and
from that we can benefit.
With Reid's refusal to
accept the House CR with
the one-year suspension
of Obamacare, a shutdown seems certain.
Every Republican
should be out front, on
TV, radio and in print this
week with a simple message:
"We have twice voted to fund every agency
and program of the U.S.
government (save Obamacare) in a single CR. We
will proceed now to pass
CRs for each department
and agency of the U.S.
government, separately
and individually.
"And if Harr y Reid's
Senate refuses to pass a
single one of those CRs,
who then is shutting down
NIH and the FDA?"

slide for them to enjoy.
At the concession stand we are serving nachos, hot dogs, frito chili pies and
sodas. For older children and adults we
have more challenging games like a football toss and a putting green, as well as an
18’ tall Rock Climb inflatable slide.
Everyone will enjoy the live music from
Third Channel, a Delight band. They play
Classic Rock from the 60’s to the 80’s.
Fifteen vendors will be selling many handmade and beautiful products including
jewelry, woodworking items, handbags,
candles, and T-shirts.
Don’t miss the face painting and hair
dyeing booth. The evening will end with
a spooky hayride around our Prospector
Trail.
Vendors will begin selling at 1:00 PM to
our regular Saturday diamond searchers.
The Festival doors will open at 3:00 PM

How to manage financial stress in a marriage
Whether you are newly married or have been
married for many years,
learning to manage money
together is something all
married couples must do.
It’s not easy, and sometimes it is downright
stressful, especially when
faced with today’s economy and the threat of job
loss or downsizing. When
managing your money as
a couple, it is so easy to
blame the other person
for the financial situation
you might find yourself in.
Many married couples will
state that managing money
is the most challenging
thing about marriage. In
fact, many couples split
due to financial woes in the
marriage.
Putting the blame on the
other person and having
heated arguments about
finances does not help
in any marriage or solve
any financial problems.
This type of behavior only
makes matters worse.
Financial stressors and
storms in marriage are
best weathered through
healthy communication,
planning, flexibility, humor,
and hope.
1. Healthy Communication – Talk openly an
honestly with your spouse
about where you stand
financially, especially if
one person has the major
responsibility of managing
the family finances. Let
your spouse know how
you stand financially. This
is your starting point for
making an effective financial plan. The best way to
handle family finances is
to work on them together
and share in the responsibility of paying the bills
and deciding how the rest
of the money (if there is
any) will be spent. Remember, you are on the same
team, so talk about how
you will overcome whatever challenge(s) you face
together. Also, be willing
to see things from your
spouse’s point of view and
remain calm, even when
you don’t agree with them.
2. Planning – Talking
alone will not solve your
financial problems. You
have to develop a plan and
put it into action. Have a
very clear plan for how
you will stay within your
means, avoid new debt,
pay off existing debt, and
save money. Budgeting is a
must in any marriage.
3. Flexibility – Sometimes even the best plans

Tips
by Jean A. Ince
Staff chairman
UofA Cooperative Extension
Service • Howard County
need to be adjusted from
time to time. It’s okay to
modify what you are doing
when the need arises. For
example – you might have
allotted a certain amount
of money for fuel bills. If
the price of gasoline goes
up, you may need to adjust
your budget to compensate for these costs.
4. Humor – It has been
said that “laughter is the
best medicine.” This is true
even of financial ailments.
Even though a couple’s financial well-being is a very
serious issue, you will feel
less stressed and be better
able to deal with financial
hard times if you can find
something to laugh about.
5. Hope – Be hopeful
about the future. Just
about any financial problem can be resolved. It may
take time, hard work, and
patience, but together you
can weather any financial
storm. If things seem particularly bleak, consulting
with a professional (e.g.,
credit counselor) may help
you be more hopeful about
the future.
For more information
on money matters, visit
the Howard County Extension Office located on the
second floor of the courthouse or call our office at
870-845-7517. One of our

Newlyweds” which is a free

for newlyweds, it has information that is pertinent
for any married couples no
matter how long you have
been married. Check it out
at the Extension Office!

of A Division of Agriculture,
and offers its programs to
all eligible persons regardless of race, color, national

Man finds 2.13
carat diamond
at state park
MURFREESBORO – Clay
Jarvis of San Antonio, Texas, has been fascinated by
diamonds since he was
boy, when at age 10 he
visited a diamond cutting facility in Amsterdam,
Holland. Recently, the
business and commercial
builder was working on
a project in Texarkana
and decided to visit all of
Arkansas’s 52 state parks.
He first visited Millwood
State Park near Ashdown,
and then he made his initial visit to the Crater of
Diamonds State Park at
Murfreesboro. He had first
learned about Arkansas’s
diamond site when seeing
it featured on
The Discovery Channel. On his second trip to
the Crater of Diamonds
yesterday, Jarvis found
a 2.13-carat champagne
brown diamond in the East
Drain area of the diamond
search field after surface
searching for about an
hour and a half.
According to Park Interpreter Margi Jenks,
the light brown diamond
is somewhat square in
shape, and about the size
of pencil eraser. “The diamond has a beautiful metallic shine that is very
characteristic of Arkansas
diamonds,” said Jenks.
She noted that it’s the
368th diamond found at
the park this year. It’s
also the 14th diamond
find this year weighing
over one carat, and
the fifth diamond this
year weighing over two
carats, all of which were
brown diamonds found on
the surface of the park’s 37
½-acre search area.
Diamond finder Clay
Jarvis commented that
the reason he knew it was
a diamond when he picked
it up was because he had
attended the “Diamond
Mining 101” demonstration conducted by Jenks
during his first visit to the

Children’s Center
golf tournament
is this weekend
A.J. SmItH
Managing Editor
NASHVILLE - The 26th
annual benefit golf tournament for Howard County
Children’s Center is set to
tee off at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m.
on Sat., Oct. 5. The event
has four man teams created by corporate sponsors.
For one four man team
the sponsorship is $500,
for two four man teams
it is $1,000. The public is
invited to the dinner and
auction at the Nashville
Country Club at 6 p.m.
“There are about 34
to 36 teams participating
this year,” Director Tim
Freel said during a brief
phone interview. “We are
excited about the turnout
and would like to have everyone come out and eat
dinner and participate in
the auction.”
Howard County Children’s Center is a 501c(3)
not for profit, DDS Community Program. They serve
children up to age 5 years
and adults 18 and older
with developmental disabilities. What started out
as an operation in an annex
of a local church building
in 1971 providing services
to twelve individuals with
disabilities ranging in age
from 3 to 35 years, has
grown into a thriving resource for individuals who
may not have a fighting
chance without them.
They offer group housing for adults to learn how
to become self-sufficient
in personal grooming, hygiene, housekeeping and
careers. They also have a
daycare for pre-schoolers
with developmental disorders and various handicaps.
Without the help of the
golf tournament sponsored
by Tyson Foods, the bass
tournament, sponsored by
Husqvarna and a telethon,
sponsored by Nashville
Rotary Club the help the
Howard County Children’s
Center provides would not
be able to keep up with the
increasing demand and
calling to help for those
less fortunate.
Every individual or corporate sponsorship helps
continue the excellent service the Children’s Center
provides.
For more information
about the golf tournament,

ed to do,” he said in a 2010 interview with the Nashville News.
His love of basketball is credited
to his high school experience at
Jessieville, where his father taught
for 47 years.
“There were 11 boys in tenth
through twelfth grade and ten
played basketball and the other
one was our manager,” he said.
In 1951, his senior year in high
school, Click played forward for
the Jessieville senior boy’s basketball team. The team went to the
finals of the state class “B” basketball tournament losing to Valley
Springs. It was a game he felt they
could have won throughout his life.
After graduating from Jessieville
High, he continued his education
at Henderson State University in
Arkadelphia where he received
both a bachelor and master degree
in 1954.
He began coaching in St. Elizabeth, MO at the age of 21 in 1955.
During his first year of coaching
the girl’s team in Missouri, he led
the team through an undefeated
season. He continued coaching
girl’s basketball for 19 years until
the game play changed from three
on three half court to five on five.
In 1956, he married the love
of his life, Sue Howell Click, and
together they traveled throughout

we need something or just want to

In addition to his repair work,
Nunley has created new instruments as well, though he admits
that it took him some time.

and had made all of the different
parts of a guitar to replace things
for restorations, but I didn’t make
a whole guitar until five or six
years ago,” he said.
his career to Missouri, Fourche
Valley, Dove, and Delight before
settling down in Nashville.
Click served a tour of duty in
the Army [and served in the Army
National Guard and Reserves for
28 years] before returning to Arkansas to coach at Fourche Valley
in Yell County. Not staying long
in Fourche Valley, Click moved to
Dover where he accumulated 40
trophies in four years.
Click then began coaching at
Delight. In the nine years he was
at Delight, Click won 86 trophies,
including a state championship in
1964 and coached the winning allstar game that same year.
His most successful team was
from 1962 through 1965. They won
the Jr. High State Championship
in 1962, went 39-3 in 1963, 42-0 in
1964 and 39-2 in 1965. The 1963
team lost the state championship
in seven overtimes, which Click
stated was partially due to the fact
that his team had the flu the week
of the tournament and played the
state championship game with two
starters sick.
The Bulldogs returned to the
state finals the following year and
brought home the championship,
becoming the second team in Arkansas history to finish a season
undefeated.
In 1970, Click moved from Delight to Nashville with hopes of
building a basketball program to
rival the football program. It didn’t
take long for Click to realize that
he had taken on a monumental
task. He was quick to admit that
Nashville was a football town and
remembered the administration
getting excited about the Scrappers going 18-12 in their first two
years.
“I told them I didn’t lose 12 the
entire time I was in Delight,” Click
stated in the Nashville News.
Throughout his coaching career
he refereed high school basketball
and was active in the pee-wee basketball program in Nashville. He
retired from coaching in 1977 and
refereeing in 1994. He was proud
of the fact he had played, coached
and refereed in a state final game.
The Arkansas High School
Coaches Association inducted
Click into the Hall of Fame in 2003.
He was an active member of the
Nashville community touching
hundreds of people’s lives throughout his coaching and teaching
career. He was also an active member of Sunset Church of Christ in
Nashville.
The Arkansas Prostate Cancer
Foundation’s mission is to increase
awareness about prostate cancer

After his injuries and finding
God, Cranford used his disability
as motivation to lead as normal a
life as possible. It ultimately led to
him starting the Southern Sportsmen Foundation in 2004.
Since forming, the foundation
has sponsored over 100 hunters
with disabilities. The foundation
is a group of outdoor enthusiasts whose motto is ‘sharing the
outdoors’ and do so with people
who have disabilities, including
children and veterans.
The foundation is dedicated to
raising funds to help provide outdoor activities for people who have
missed out on because of their
disabilities. Southern Sportsmen
Foundation provides memories
and enjoyment for that lasts a
lifetime.
The Southern Sportsmen Foundation is a non-profit organization
based in Foreman, Arkansas. The
generous support of businesses
and individuals has helped hunters from more than a dozen states
across America take part in exceptional hunting excursions. For

Among his creations is an
eight string guitar, which appears
similar to a standard six string,
but features 12 string sound. The
head of the guitar is inlayed with
his signature mark - the Hebrew
character “taw,” which resembles
a lowercase “n.”
Sitting in Nunley’s workshop,
surrounded by adapted dental
and draftsman’s tools (and a
large number of tools that he created himself), bits of inlay material ranging from ivory recycled
from old piano keys and briarwood from old tobacco pipes to
Pacific abalone and nacre, and
instruments ranging from shattered hunks of wood to visual and
auditory works of art, it is easy to
see that his work is no longer just
a hobby.
He has developed a passion for
it, and admits as much: “I don’t
plan to ever retire. I will die with
a chisel in my hand.”

park a couple of weeks
ago. During that interpretive program, he and the
other visitors participating in that hands-on demonstration were shown
diamonds from the Crater
as they learned the principle characteristics of
diamonds from Arkansas’s
site.
Margi Jenks said, “Mr.
Jarvis certainly got an ‘A+’
on Diamond Mining 101
and went to the head of
the class by finding a large
diamond on his next visit
to the park.” She continued, “We love it one of our
visitors finds a diamond.
We are so happy that his
adventure had a happy
ending, and in less than
two hours during his second visit to the park!”
Clay Jar vis said, “It
happens! And, keep looking, because it’s fun.” He
named his stone the Nona
“J” Diamond for his wife,
his best friend and sweetheart. Jarvis continued,
“Our first grandchild was
born last year. My wife,
April, is studying Italian,
and ‘Nona’ is the word for
grandmother in Italian.”
Margi Jenks said, “Of
the 14 diamonds weighing
over one carat found at the
park this year, the current
trend continues of visitors
finding diamonds on the
surface of the search field.
Due to good rains this
year, many of the large diamonds were found right on
the surface. Diamonds are
a bit heavy for their size, so
a good downpour will wash
the dirt away, leaving the
diamond exposed.”
The search area at the
Crater of Diamonds is a
37 ½-acre plowed field
that is the eroded surface of the eighth largest
diamond-bearing deposit
in the world, in surface
area. It is the world’s only
diamond-producing site
open to the public. The colors of diamonds found at
the park are white, brown,
and yellow, in that order.
Other semi-precious gems
and minerals found in the
park’s search area include
amethyst, garnet, peridot,
jasper, agate, calcite, barite, and quartz. Over 40 different rocks and minerals
are unearthed at the Crater
making it a rock hound’s
delight. On average, two

diamonds are found each
day at the park. The park’s
policy is finder-keepers.
What park visitors find is
theirs to keep. The park
staff provides free identification and registration of
diamonds. Park interpretive programs and exhibits
explain the site’s geology
and history, and offer tips
on recognizing diamonds
in the rough.
Many factors help visitors who like to surface
search for diamonds at the
park. Park personnel regularly plow the diamond
search area to bring fresh,
eroded diamond ore to
the surface. Then, erosion
from heavy rains concentrates the heavy rocks and
minerals, like diamonds, in
the low-lying parts of the
search area.
In total, over 75,000
diamonds have been unearthed at Arkansas’s diamond site since the first
diamonds found in 1906
by John Huddleston, the
farmer who at that time
owned the land, long before the site became an Arkansas state park in 1972.
The largest diamond ever
discovered in the United
States was unearthed here
in 1924 during an early

mining operation. Named
the Uncle Sam, this white
diamond with a pink cast
weighed 40.23 carats. Notable diamonds found by
park visitors since the
state park was established
at the site include the Amarillo Starlight, a 16.37-carat
white diamond discovered
in 1975 which ranks as
the largest diamond ever
found by a park visitor.
The second largest find by
a park visitor is the Star of
Shreveport, an 8.82-carat
white gem unearthed in
1981. In 2011, a visitor
from Colorado found an
8.66-carat white diamond
she named the Illusion
Diamond, which is the
third-largest gem registered here since the Crater
of Diamonds State Park
was established in 1972.
Another notable diamond from the Crater of Diamonds that has received
much national attention is
the 1.09-carat D-flawless
Strawn-Wagner Diamond.
Discovered in 1990 by park
visitor Shirley Strawn of
Murfreesboro, this white
gem weighed 3.03 carats
in the rough before being
cut to perfection in 1997
by the renowned diamond
firm Lazare Kaplan International of New York. The
gem is the most perfect
diamond ever certified in
the laboratory of the
American Gem Society.
It is on display in a special
exhibit in the Crater of
Diamonds State Park visitor center.
Another gem from the
Crater is the flawless
4.25-carat Kahn Canary
diamond that was discovered at the park in 1977.
This uncut, triangularshape gem has been on exhibit at many cities around
the U.S. and overseas. It
was featured in an illustrious jewelry exhibition in
Antwerp, Belgium, in 1997
that included precious
stones from throughout
the world including the
Kremlin collection, the
Vatican, Cartier, and Christies. And, in late 1997, the
Kahn Canary was featured
in another prestigious exhibition at the American
Museum of Natural History in New York entitled
“The Nature of Diamonds.”
Former First Lady Hillary
Clinton borrowed the Kahn
Canar y from its owner,
Stan Kahn of Pine Bluff,
Arkansas, and wore it in a
special, Arkansas-inspired
ring setting designed by
Henry Dunay of New York
as a special way to represent Arkansas’s diamond
site at the galas celebrating
both of Bill Clinton’s presidential inaugurals.
Crater of Diamonds
State Park is on Ark. 301 at

Scrappers to face CAC Friday
Team preparing
for aerial assault
after two weeks of
ground game focus
CHARLES GOODIN
Editor
NASHVILLE - The Nashville Scrappers are preparing to take on a different
kind of opponent this week
as they gear up to host the
Central Arkansas Christian
Mustangs.
Nashville defeated Watson Chapel in week three,
then lost last Friday to the
Arkadelphia Badgers - both
contests where containing
speedy ballcarriers proved
to be the difference between success and failure.
Head Coach Billy Dawson
said Tuesday that CAC’s
game plan will be the polar
opposite of what was seen
in those matchups.
“They’re trying to score
and score in bunches,”
Dawson explained during
a brief interview. “They’re
an offensive team and
they have been that way
for a long time. They’re
gonna throw it around. I
think they’re averaging 46
throws a game, so they’re
gonna throw it 40-50 times
and spread you out.”
The team is led by senior quar terback Jack
Thomas, who spent last
season sidelined by injury
but has returned to propel
the Mustangs’ high-octane
offense to a 3-1 start.
“He’s kind of their leader, kinda their mojo,” Dawson said. “They feed off
him, and he does a good
job getting it out of there.”
The team lacks both size
and experience on the offensive line, however, and
gave up four sacks during
last week’s 43-32 win over
Arkansas Baptist.
The primary targets of
the Mustangs’ aerial assault are 6’5” 240 pound
Adam Weiner and 6’2”
Stephan Flanigan, a duo
Dawson said have combined to score the lion’s
share of CAC’s touchdowns
this season.
Defensively, the team
lines up in a 4-3 scheme
that focuses on putting
pressure on their opponent’s quarterback. Dawson pointed out that six
Mustangs are playing both
ways and only five are
returning starters, once
again stressing that execution rather than pure
athleticism will be their
focus.
“Their kids are really
well-coached, they’re very
smart, they’re very physical, they’re gonna play
hard and they’re not gonna
make many mistakes,” he
said. “You gotta get pressure on Jack and you gotta
get off the field on third
down and make them drive
the length. Eliminate the
big play and make them
execute for 60 yards.”
Kickoff is set for 7:30
p.m.

yards.

GAME OF THE WEEK
No. 7 POTTSVILLE at No. 13 DARDANELLE
Both teams start 4-0 for the
second straight year. Dardanelle won five straight in the
series from 2006-2010 before
Pottsville has beaten Dardanelle
a combined 75-20 the past two
years, including 39-10 a year
ago. “Our first goal is to close
the gap,” Dardanelle coach Josh
Price says. Dardanelle starts
seven sophomores on offense,
including quarterback Chris Kirshner, who entered Week 2 at
Mayflower after starter Kristian
Thompson broke his arm. Kirshner has thrown five TD passes,
ran for a score and returned a
kickoff for another the past three
weeks. Junior T.J. Tucker has
rushed for more than 400 yards
and six TDs the past two weeks.
The Sand Lizards ran just nine
plays in the first half last week
against Dover, but rallied from
a 10-0 deficit for a sportsmanship rule victory. Sand Lizard
linebacker J.J. Dunn paces the
Sand Lizards in tackles, while
junior kicker/linebacker Gerardo
Hernandez made eight tackles
and an interception a week ago.
Pottsville outscores opponents 44-17. Apache senior QB
Michael Perry has almost 1,000
yards this fall. Perry ran for four
TDs and threw a pair of scores
against Heber Springs Week
1 and accounted for four TDs
the next week against Fountain
Lake. Sophomore Josh Dugger’s
emergence at halfback helps
Pottsville’s offense. Dugger ran
nine times for 122 yards and two
TDs against Subiaco Academy
BERRYVILLE (1) at Ozark:
Improved Berryville trailed undefeated Lincoln 21-5 at halftime
last week. Winless Ozark has
scored four TDs this year.
GRAVETTE (3) at Gentry:
Gentry hasn’t beaten Gravette
since 2003. Gentry lost at Farmington by 10 points a week ago.
Pioneer senior QB Jarod Cousins
has completed 41 of 78 passes
(53 percent) for 559 yards and
four TDs and rushed 52 times
for 580 yards and three scores.
Gravette ran for 320 yards (218
by junior Cedric Duarte) in last
week’s 14-point win over Pea
Ridge.
LINCOLN (7) at Pea Ridge:
Lincoln senior safety Tyler Cummings returned an interception
40 yards for a TD against Berryville last week, and he ran for
108 yards and a TD. Pea Ridge
surrendered 320 yards rushing
at Gravette a week ago.
PRAIRIE GROVE (10) at
Farmington: A battle of unbeatens for the second straight year.
Farmington has won four of the
past 7 over Prairie Grove, but
the Tigers won 27-21 last year.
Prairie Grove junior Bobby Catt
returned an interception 70 yards
for a TD in last week’s 35-point
win over Ozark. Farmington junior Josh Blew and sophomore
Justice Hobbs ran for 193 yards
and three TDs in last week’s 2111 win over Gentry.
2-4A
Heber Springs at STUTTGART (13): Stuttgart leads the
overall series 5-2. Winless Heber
Springs trailed Lonoke 28-21 at
halftime last week before surrendering five TDs in the second
half. Stuttgart senior Tyler Luster
has rushed for six TDs this season.
Marianna at DOLLARWAY
(31): Improved Marianna has
scored three TDs in three games
this year, compared to two TDs
in nine games a year ago. Dollarway hasn’t allowed a point the
past two weeks (shutout Newport 42-0 last week). Cardinal junior Keyshawn Williams, whose
dad Kevin played at Arkansas,
ran for three TDs at Newport.
Newport at LONOKE (1):
Newport has beaten Lonoke four
of the past five meetings. Lonoke
receiver Blake Mack, an Arkansas State commit, ran 11 times
for 117 yards and two TDs in
last week’s 29-point win at Heber
Springs.
Southside Batesville at CLINTON (18): Southside Batesville’s
25-point win last year over Clinton snapped a four-game losing
streak in the series. The Southerners scored just three points
in last week’s 41-3 loss to Stuttgart. Clinton junior QB Fielder
Dufrene threw four TD passes,
three to senior receiver Robbie
Slack, in last week’s 26-point win
at Marianna.
3-4A
Brookland at HIGHLAND
(30): Highland tunes up for next
week’s showdown with Valley
View. Rebel sophomore QB Reid
Maag and junior receiver Avery
Johnson combined for five TDs
in last weeks 49-21 win over
Jonesboro Westside.
GOSNELL (28) at Cave City:
This is the second meeting between these schools (Gosnell
won 43-29 a year ago). Pirate senior Marcus Mullins ran for 200
yards and five TDs in last week’s
28-point win over Brookland.
Cave City averages six points
weekly.
Trumann at JONESBORO
WESTSIDE (2): Jonesboro Westside’s one-point win at Trumann
last season catapulted the Warriors to the playoffs. Trumann
hasn’t won since beating Jonesboro Westside 44-13 Week 5,
2011.
VALLEY VIEW (21) at Pocahontas: Valley View averages 42
points a game, but its unheralded defense gives up less than
14 points weekly. Valley View’s
defense didn’t allow a first down
until minutes before halftime in
last week’s 42-point win over
Cave City. Pocahontas QB Caden
Wilson (passed for 181 yards
and two TDs) and running back
Eric Wolf (141 yards, two TDs)
fuel the Redskin attack.
4-4A
BOONEVILLE (28) at Subiaco
Academy: Booneville led Waldron 28-0 in the first quarter last
week. The undefeated Bearcats
have applied the 35-point sportsmanship rule in three of four
games this fall. Booneville has
beaten Subiaco Academy 27
straight times since losing to the
Trojans in 1955.
Dover at MENA (16): Mena
junior QB Sage Kesterson completed 21 of 35 passes for 235
yards at Maumelle a week ago.
Dover led Dardanelle 10-0 a
week ago, after getting shutout
71-0 in Week 3.
MAUMELLE (25) at Waldron: Maumelle threw three
interceptions and tallied 11
penalties in the first half of last
week’s 24-point win over Mena.
The Hornets have given up just
six TDs this year. Waldron has
scored 68 points in four games
this year, compared to 71 points
in 10 games a year ago..
7-4A
ARKADELPHIA (28) at Arkansas
Baptist:
Arkadelphia
sandwiches the Eagles between
last week’s nine-point win over
league kingpin Nashville and next
week’s battle with CAC (Arkadelphia’s only conference loss last
year). Badger senior Kris Oliver
has rushed for 678 yards and
10 TDs this year. Arkansas Baptist averages 33 points a game.
Eagle junior QB Riley Perkins
has thrown for more than 1,300
yards this year, including a 413yard, four-TD effort in last week’s
43-32 loss to CAC.
Bauxite at ASHDOWN (21):
Undefeated Ashdown gets another prep before facing Malvern, Nashville and Arkadelphia
in consecutive weeks. Panther
senior QB Jake Alexander threw
three TD passes in the first half
of last week’s 35-0 win over previously unbeaten Pulaski Robinson. Ashdown senior end Ethan
Erwin energizes a defense that
gives up 25 points a game. Erwin
missed the opening three games
with a concussion, but played
well against Robinson last week.
CAC at NASHVILLE (11): CAC
usually plays Nashville competitively. Mustang senior QB Zach
Thomas passed for 382 yards
and four TDs in last week’s
11-point win over Arkansas Baptist. Nashville led Arkadelphia
17-7 in the first half last week
before losing by 11 points. The
Scrappers turned the ball over
four times at Arkadelphia.
Pulaski Robinson at MALVERN (14): Malvern has beaten
Pulaski Robinson by a combined
76-32 the past two years, since
losing to the Senators by a point
in overtime in 2010. Malvern
sparked its offense last week
(27-point win at Bauxite), shifting senior Kaylen Burks from
QB to receiver last week. Leopard sophomore Trace Collie QB
passed for 140 yards, hitting
Burks for a 69-yard TD pass.
8-4A
ARKADELPHIA (28) at Arkansas Baptist: Arkadelphia

last year). Badger senior Kris
Oliver has rushed for 678 yards
and 10 TDs this year. Arkansas
Baptist averages 33 points a

1,300 yards this year, including
a 413-yard, four-TD effort in last
week’s 43-32 loss to CAC.

GAME OF THE WEEK
No. 28 Magazine at No. 15 Hector
This game may decide the
4-2A title. Magazine getting
heathy after five starters missed
games early with injuries, but the
Rattlers continue to sputter on
offense. Coach Doug Powell says
they have not played a complete
game since whipping Quitman
42-16 Week 2. All-league RB/
LB Billy Yang leads Magazine in
rushing and tackles. Senior TE/
DE Layton Robinson ranks second on the tackle chart. Senior
QB Charley Moua (pronounced
Mow-uh) has accounted for
more than 450 yards.

still passed for 214 yards and
two TDs.
Augusta at SALEM (15): Salem’s offense has not made big
plays, and its defense has allowed big plays the past two
weeks in losses by a combined
14 points. Salem’s seniors had

The rebuilding of Bigelow’s defense has taken time, and it’s far

eight TDs; Ricks for six TDs.
Ricks leads the Bison in tackles.
DES ARC (39) at Marvell: Des
Arc hands Marvell its 30th consecutive loss.
HAZEN (42) at Brinkley: Hazen thumped Marvell 51-6 last
week. The Hornets bully Brinkley
and Clarendon before playing
host to Carlisle Week 7.
7-2A
Mineral Springs at GURDON (21): Dierks held Gurdon
to negative-23 yards rushing in
the second half (26 yards for
the game) last week. Senior QB
Austin Kirkpatrick completed 17of-22 passes for 103 yards and a
TD with one interception.
DIERKS (13) at Foreman: Dierks jumps six spots in the rankings to No. 4 but must quickly
forget its emotional 34-15 win
last week over then-No. 3 Gurdon. Dierks sophomore RB Trendin McKinney (5-9, 200) carried
31 times last week for 151 yards
and three TDs. McKinney averages 6.3 yards per carry. Senior QB
Adam Bradshaw has completed
33-of-58 passes for 534 yards
and 10 TDs with one (deflected)
interception. Senior tight end Andrew Sirmon has 10 receptions
for 251 yards and five TDs. Senior MLB Andy Tedder paces the
Outlaws with 29 tackles. Senior
kicker Curtis Sebren has developed into a college prospect,
consistently sending kickoffs
into the end zone. Sebren has hit
every extra point this year and all
five field goals with a long of 42
yards. He’s automatic from 50
yards or less in practice.
Lafayette County at SPRING
HILL (35): Upstart Spring Hill,
picked last in the 7-2A by league
coaches, passed a road test last
week at Foreman and took a step
toward earning a playoff berth.
Lafayette County sophomore
Tre’Darius Burks (5-9, 200) is
one to watch. “It looked like tornado damage, the bodies (Murfreesboro defenders) strewn
behind him on a run,” Murfreesboro coach Jeff Jones says. “Do
not attempt to tackle him above
the waist. He is nothing but explosive.”
Strong at MURFREESBORO
(6): Strong originally scheduled
to play Woodlawn this week
but will play Woodlawn Week 8.
Murfreesboro sophomore Daniel
Robinson ran well last week in a
40-6 win over Lafayette County.
Senior Tyler Hill (6-3, 200),
slowed by a hamstring injury,
saw his first extensive action at
tight end Friday, blocking well
and catching a 67-yard TD pass
8-2A
JUNCTION CITY (39) at
Hampton: An opposing coach
has called Junction City junior
tailback Jaqwis Dancy the best
he’s seen in the 8-2A, “and that
includes (former Strong QB)
Kenneth Dixon. He never slows
when he makes a cut.” Dancy
has rushed 73 times for 787
yards and seven TDs.
Hermitage at RISON (35):
Rison’s defense, led by senior
lineman Tristan Ward, recorded
12 tackles for loss last week at
Parkers Chapel. Rison rushed for
409 yards in the 44-6 win.
Parkers Chapel at BEARDEN
(35): No. 2 Bearden is ahead of
last year’s pace with a veteran
team that starts just one sophomore. Senior NG Darwin Parham
leads the Bears with 40 tackles. Junior QB Jamond Young
completes 60 percent of his
passes. All-8-2A Quentin Wilson
(shoulder) returned last week
to catch two TDs at Woodlawn.
Junior WR DeVontae Ross recorded 100-yard receiving nights
against Camden Harmony Grove
and Junction City.
Strong at MURFREESBORO
(6): Strong originally scheduled
to play Woodlawn this week
but will play Woodlawn Week 8.
Murfreesboro sophomore Daniel
Robinson ran well last week in a
40-6 win over Lafayette County.
Senior Tyler Hill (6-3, 200),
slowed by a hamstring injury,
saw his first extensive action at
tight end Friday, blocking well
and catching a 67-yard TD pass.

Undefeated Outlaws head to Foreman
Dierks looking
to maintain
dominance in
conference play as
they travel south to
take on the Gators
CHARLES GOODIN
Editor
DIERKS - After sliding
into the driver’s seat of
7-2A conference play last
week with a surprise win
over Gurdon, the Dierks
Outlaws are preparing to
defend that position as
they travel to Foreman.
Head Coach David Bennett acknowledged that
last week’s win makes the
undefeated Outlaws a favorite for the conference
title, but cautioned that
the team has a long road
to travel before they can
claim a championship.
“In this conference anybody can beat you on a
night you’re not playing
well, or if you suffer a few
injuries along the way.
We’re week four, and right
now we’re undefeated,
but it’s a week to week
issue,” Bennett explained
Wednesday during a brief
interview. “There’s still a
lot of football to be played
and a lot of teams we have
to watch for - and this week
we’ll play another one.”
Although the 1-3 Gators
have not had the season
they hoped for early on,
Bennett said the team is
athletic and improved from
years past. They defeated
Genoa Central 46-6 in their
season opener and nearly
overtook Horatio during
week three in a 27-26 heartbreaker.
“I know Foreman has
athletes,” Bennett said.
“They look very improved
up front as far as line play
and they have quite a few
skill kids.”
Chief among those skill
players are former quarterback Jordan Hardwrick,
who moved to receiver
this fall, and all-purpose
back Dairyon Jones, who
rushed for two scores in
last week’s loss to Spring
Hill.
“[Hardwrick] is probably their best athlete overall,” Bennett said. “[Jones]
probably put on a little bit
of weight - 20 or 30 pounds
- but he can still run.”
The pair are joined by
rotating quarterbacks Ty
Bates and Damion Bannister, who last week completed about half their
passes for 156 yards. Reggie Henderson caught five
of those throws to account
for over 80 yards.
Bennett said the team
will use their multiple
threats in several different
formations ranging from
the spread to a tight trips
grouping and could throw
a few misdirection plays
into the mix.
Defensively, they alternate between a five and
four front with a bevy of
linemen who Bennett described as “six foot, 240
pounders.”
“They play good technique on the defensive line
and they tackle well, so
that’s a concern for us,” he
said. “We’ve got to execute
up front whether we’re
running or throwing.”
Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.

the Dierks’ Outlaws
upset win over topranked Gurdon. The
win put Dierks in the
driver’s seat as far
as conference play is
concerned and they
will look to maintain
that role this week as
they face Foreman.

primarily contributed
defensively last week
and figures to be a
big part of the team’s
game plan against
Foreman.

Hornets have hands full with Gurdon
Mineral Springs

take on talented
Go-Devil squad
A.J. SmItH
Managing Editor
MINERAL SPRINGS The Mineral Springs Hornets have been preparing
all week to take on the
Gurdon Go-Devils this
Fri., Oct. 4th.
Head Coach Jason
Burns said Tuesday that
the formerly top-ranked
team will be hungry for
a win after losing their
conference opener in an
upset at Dierks.
“They lost their first
game last week against
the Outlaws; they will
be very hungry, focused
and ready,” Burns said
during a brief phone interview. “They are a very
well coached team with a
three year starting quarterback [Austin Kirkpatrick], with a team that
will be playing their first
home game, so they will
be aggressive.”
The Go-Devils were
handed a surprise upset by the Outlaws last
week after Dierks neu-
tered their high-octane
offense, holding them to
just two scores that came
on big plays, while they
rattled off 34 points for
the win.
Burns said he knows
the team will be anxious
to prove themselves this
week, and in preparation, the Mineral Springs
Hornets have been fine
tuning their plays while
Burns has put some extra focus on the special
teams in practice.
“They have a couple of
big linebackers and some
fast receivers on their
team,” he said.
The Hornets are entering the battle after earning their first win of the
season last week against
the Hampton Bulldogs
with a score of 36-17.
The Hornets will attempt to advance on
their 1-2 record against
the Go-Devils starting
with kick-off on Friday
night at 7:30 p.m. at the
Go-Devil Stadium in Gurdon.

Scrapperette golf player Adley Kirchhoff lines up a shot
during a recent match.
Kirchhoff scores
116 in state tourney
LUKE REEDER
NHS Correspondent
JONESBORO - Wednesday marked the final game
for the Scrapperette golf
team as junior Adley Kirchhoff played in the state
tournament. This was
Kirchhoff’s first time to
compete in state.
“I loved the experience
just being able to be at
state,” she said. “I was excited to be able to play in
state but at the same time
I was nervous.”
Even though she didn’t
win the tournament and
ended the day with a score
of 116, she described the
experience as “a great
time.”
“I didn’t play my best

Wed-Sat 10am - 6pm
but I had fun being there.
It was an honor,” Kirchhoff said. “My favorite
part of the tournament
was actually my practice
round because there was
absolutely no pressure on
me, plus I had coach and
my mom out there and
they made it a fun time.
My least favorite part of
the tournament was hitting the rough - otherwise
known as the jungle - and
knowing that the ball was
gone for good.”
With this season over,
Kirchhoff said she is now
looking forward to repeating, and perhaps improving
on, her performance.
“I am looking forward to
next year and going back
to state. I need to work
on my short game and
I’m striving to improve on
every aspect of my game,”
she said. “This requires
me to master coach’s ‘Five
Steps,’ and those are a
secret. I have no regrets.
Every day of golf is a new
and different experience.
I was excited to be in the
state tournament and I’m
looking forward to the next
season.”
Letters
Hickory House exempliies hometown feeling
Dear Editor:
I recently traveled to Nashville
to visit family. I observed as I
turned onto Main Street, a large
sign that stated “Sharing the Hometown Feeling.”
While I was here this past
week, I ate several meals with my
family at the Hickory House. The
customer service that was provided
was above and beyond any other
eating establishment that I visited.
From the moment I entered the
dining room, I was treated as if I
was “one of the family.”
I would like to express my
gratitude to the employees of the
Hickory House for providing such
phenomenal service. While here,
I ate in the establishment on three
different occasions. I would like to
applaud the owners for the attention
that is provided to customers and
for truly implementing the “Sharing the Hometown Feeling” brand
of Nashville.
I will make visits to the Hickory
House a priority, when I return.

Tennis teams whip De Queen, Prescott
LUKE REEDER
NHS Correspondent
NASHVILLE - Nashville’s tennis teams wrapped up their final
two home games on Monday and
Tuesday against De Queen and
Prescott. This was Nashville’s
second meeting with both teams.
On Monday against De Queen,
Nashville went 8-0 on the girls’
side and the boys went 5-7 with
the only losses coming from Caleb
Glann (5-3) and Alex Perrin (3-6).
Next came the last home match
of the season against Prescott.
Nashville’s girls went 2-0 with Lacie Grace winning 6-1 and McKenzie
Morphew winning her game 6-1.
The boys also won their three
games with Robbie Morphew
winning 6-3 and Garrett Hartness
winning 6-2. The only doubles
game of the day was one by Alex
Perrin and Andy Graves, which
they won 6-1.
This was the last game at home
for the seniors on the team, including Perrin.
“At first it didn’t really bother
me, but now that it has sunk in I
know it was a big deal to play my
last match at home,” Perrin said.
The district tournament begins
Wednesday, and Garrett Hartness said the team is focusing on
improving as they head into the
match.
”I’m keeping a good mindset in
practice, and trying to get better
for district,” he said. “This is my
second time going and it feels
awesome, and it helps that my
brother and I are undefeated in
doubles.”
The district tournament will be
played Wednesday at Ouachita
Baptist University in Arkadelphia.
