Story and photo by Ron WestThe remnants of a nor’easter failed

to deter a crowd from rallying at the Northampton Board of Supervisors meeting Tuesday in opposition to a proposal to amend the current Zoning Ordinance as well as plans to install a wastewater line along Lankford High-way near Cape Charles.

Those at the rally filled the Board Chambers and overflowed into the hallways as the supervisors listened to more than a dozen speakers urging them not to make changes to the cur-rent Zoning Ordinance.

For over three years, the county’s Planning Commission has been re-viewing and rewriting the Compre-hensive Plan on which a Zoning Ordi-nance is usually based. The majority of supervisors have indicated a desire to loosen restrictions on the existing Zoning Ordinance to make it easier for individuals to obtain building permits.

Speaking against the proposed zon-ing changes, Roberta Kellam urged the supervisors to withdraw their proposal to change the ordinance, calling their efforts unethical.

Several speakers echoed Kellam. Shorekeeper Jay Ford contended that

the supervisors have not responded the opposition. He suggested that they sit down with representatives from the county to discuss the proposed changes.

Former Supervisor Andrew Barbour stated that while the proposed revi-sions to the ordinance are being adver-tised as a way to encourage businesses in the county, they actually would

harm tourism and aquaculture. Addressing the wastewater line pro-

posed by the Public Service Authority (PSA), Cape Charles resident Debra Bender suggested that it is not needed and that the people did not want it. She concluded by telling the Board mem-bers that with the exception of Super-visor Granville Hogg, they should step down from their positions on the board.

Cathy Campbell argued that the su-pervisors had, in fact, listened to the citizens and made changes to their original Zoning Ordinance revision, such as not removing the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Act (CBPA) from the seaside. Agreeing that the county needs to grow its economy, she reas-sured, “Fears of strip malls along Rt. 13 are based on misinformation.”

Northampton High School junior Hannah DeMarino urged the supervi-sors to hold their next meeting at the school to allow students to see how the

county conducts business. Following the public comment ses-

sion, the board voted to continue a re-view of the proposed Zoning changes for six months.

Northampton School Superintendent Eddie Lawrence brought to the board’s attention the need to address structural safety issues at the high school.

According to Lawrence and Opera-tions Director Chris Truckner, an engi-neer has found safety issues resulting from deterioration of walls in the cafe-teria and ceilings in a hallway adjacent to the gymnasium. While no cost esti-mates were given for repairs, Lawrence said his staff is looking at places in the present budget to help offset the cost.

Orbital Sciences Corporation this week announced new details in its plans to resume cargo-flight launches from Wallops Flight Facility to the In-ternational SpaceStation (ISS) and to accelerate the introduction of an up-graded Antares launch vehicle.

Recovery from the detonation of an Antares rocket seconds after lift-off from Wallops Flight Facility on Oct. 28 continues for the Virginia Commercial Space Flight Authority, which owns and operates the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport (MARS) on Wallops.

After four successful launches, in-cluding three Cygnus cargo deliveries to the ISS, the Orbital Antares rocket experienced an anomaly in its first stage 15 seconds after lift-off from the Spaceport, resulting in a catastrophic failure of the vehicle.

The MARS was spared severe dam-age, with the Antares rocket returning to

earth and impacting just to the north of the launch mount. A detailed engineering inspection of the Spaceport has been com-pleted and MARS engineering teams con-tinue to refine the cost and work schedule for Pad-0A facility repairs, estimated to be approximately 12 months.

NASA, Orbital, and MARS continue execution of an environmental remedia-tion plan, including pumping water from the impact crater and sampling. Initial surface water samples indicate no im-pact to back bays and tributaries.

The environmental team sampled soil in the impact crater and in the area surrounding the launch pad. Test results showed the contamination was contained in the area immediate-ly around the crater. This area will require removal of six inches of soil for reme-diation, which was to begin this month.

Orbital says its primary objective is to fulfill its commitment to NASA

for ISS cargo deliveries with high lev-els of safety and reliability and mini-mum disruption to schedules. Orbital expects these plans to allow it to ac-complish all remaining cargo deliver-ies under its current Commercial Re-supply Services (CRS) contract with NASA by the end of 2016 with no cost increase to the space agency.

The company’s plans for the CRS program and Antares launch vehicle include these major elements:

•Atlas V Launch: Orbital has con-tracted with United Launch Alliance for an Atlas V launch of a Cygnus cargo spacecraft from Cape Canaveral, Fla., in the fourth quarter of 2015, with an option for a second Atlas V launch in 2016 if needed. The Atlas rocket’s greater lift capacity will allow Cygnus to carry nearly 35 percent more cargo to the ISS than previously planned for CRS missions in 2015.

•Antares Propulsion Upgrade: Orbit-al confirmed its ability to accelerate the introduction of a new main propulsion system for the Antares rocket and has scheduled three additional CRS launch-

es in the first, second and fourth quar-ters of 2016 using the upgraded vehicle. The greater payload performance of the upgraded Antares will permit Cygnus spacecraft on each of these missions to deliver over 20 percent more cargo than in prior plans. The first new propulsion systems are expected to arrive at the Antares final assembly facility at Wal-lops Island in mid-2015 to begin vehicle integration and testing.

•Wallops Launch Site Repairs: The MARS has assessed the clean-up, re-pair and reconstruction work neces-sary to return the Wallops launch com-plex to operational status. Plans call for repairs to be substantially complet-ed by the fall of 2015, with recertifica-tion taking place before year end.

According to Orbital, the flexibility of its Cygnus cargo spacecraft to ac-commodate heavier cargo loads, to-gether with the greater lift capacity of the Atlas V and upgraded Antares ve-hicles, will allow it to complete all cur-rently contracted ISS deliveries in four missions instead of the five previously planned flights over the next two years.

Wallops Flight Facility will host an information session for the public from 6 to 8 p.m., Monday, Dec. 15, at the Wallops Visitor Center to provide updates on en-vironmental remediation work complet-ed and underway following the Antares rocket launch failure in late October.

Experts from Wallops’ environmen-tal team will be on hand to answer questions about the mishap’s environ-mental impact on Wallops Island, as well as completed and planned testing and remediation efforts. In addition, launch and range safety officials will be available to speak about safety pro-cesses and procedures before, during, and after launch operations.

“I’m very proud of the work by the combined NASA, Orbital and MARS team in the wake of the Antares mis-hap,” said Bill Wrobel, Wallops Flight Facility director. “The team has been working tirelessly to restore and re-pair the launch site, which is a true national asset, so we can keep moving forward and return to launch.”

Data from samples collected at the impact site and the surrounding area show the environmental effects of the launch were largely contained to the impact crater adjacent to Pad 0A.

Since the event, the team has sam-

pled air, surface water, ground water, and soil. Air sampling is complete and no hazards or environmental impacts were identified. The U.S. Coast Guard and Virginia Marine Resources Com-mission patrolled the inland bays and ocean for 24 hours following the mis-hap and reported no observations of water pollution, such as oil sheens.

Groundwater in the impact crater adjacent to the pad has been pumped out, containerized and removed six times since the incident to remove perchlorate, a chemical in the fuel of Antares’ second-stage motor. Pumping and sampling at the site will continue.

In addition, crews have begun ex-cavating soil in the area around the impact crater to remove any residual RP-1, a highly-refined kerosene used as a propellant for the first stage of the Antares rocket.

The Virginia Department of Envi-ronmental Quality, Virginia Depart-ment of Health, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and other federal and state agencies have provided oversight of the environmental reme-diation.

If you’ve recently traveled on Mar-ket Street between Onley and Onan-cock, you may have noticed workers at the new Riverside Shore Memorial Hospital property preparing the site for construction.

The prime contractor, Turner Con-struction Company, recently hosted open houses in Melfa, Cape Charles and Chincoteague to provide detailed building plans to local and regional subcontractor candidates.

In addition to the 136,000-square-foot hospital, the total project will in-clude a new cancer center and a physi-cian office building.

Over the past year, Turner Con-struction and Riverside Health Ser-vices have worked on preconstruction services, including early program and schematic level estimates, budget management, and value engineering suggestions. Since every detail has been planned out, down to the location of telephones and computers, it is ex-pected that work will progress quickly.

E.V. Williams, Inc. was awarded the site contract and currently has work-

ers on-site.Turner Construction’s Joe Kranz

reported that project bidding has been “open and competitive” for subcontrac-

tors and other vendors.“Riverside wants to keep local busi-

nesses involved in the work because that’s who the hospital treats — local people,” said Todd Martin, Riverside’s System director for the project. “We want to keep the money here, locally in town and in Virginia, as much as possible.”

Rick Allard, division manager from Watson Electrical out of Ches-apeake, attended one of the intro-ductory contractor events as an in-terested bidder on the project, and agrees on the benefits of local in-volvement.

“As a huge builder, Turner Con-

struction has been really great to work with in the past, so it’s nice to see familiar faces working on the proj-ect, and to have the opportunity to be in on the planning early, knowing we’ll have to competitively bid,” Al-lard said.

The new Riverside Shore Memo-rial Hospital will be a brick, two-story, steel-frame structure with masonry and curtain wall.

The total project, including the hos-pital, cancer center and physician of-fice building, is estimated to cost $85 million. Construction is expected to be complete in July 2016, with occupancy of the building that fall.

Accomack Grand JuryA quiet indictment handed down by

an Accomack Grand Jury earlier this month was made public Tuesday.

William Shertenlieb, 51, of Belinda Lane in Sanford was indicted on counts of manufacturing marijuana and pos-sessing with intent to produce the drug. According to Accomack Circuit Court records, more than 14 ounces of mari-juana were seized on May 20.

Special Agent Scott Wade, director of Eastern Shore Drug Task Force, testi-fied before the jury about the case.

Shertenlieb was arrested Dec. 4 by S.E. Henning of the state police.

…………………………………Accomack Circuit Court

Judge Glen Tyler of Accomack Cir-cuit Court agreed to a four-month post-ponement Wednesday for the third fire-related trial for arsonist Tonya Bundick.

The move came during a conference call with the judge, Commonwealth’s Attorney Gary Agar and defense lawyer Renee Joslin.

Agar said the continuance was grant-ed on a defense motion. He would not elaborate further.

The proceeding had been scheduled to begin Monday in Virginia Beach Circuit Court and is now set for April 20, 2015.

…………………………………According to files recorded in Ac-

comack Circuit Court, Derek (Lurch) Lamonte Hairston, 43, of Germaine Lane in Parksley was sentenced to five years each for leaving the scene of a March 2 crash, and driving after having being de-clared an habitual offender.

The terms were set to run concurrent-ly, with all but a year and two months on each charge suspended. Hairston was remanded to jail. In addition, his driver’s license was suspended for six months on one charge and 90 days on the other.

Heather Ann Crutchley, 30, of Onan-cock and Billy Brandice Kilmon, 31, of Hallwood pleaded guilty to delivering or attempting to deliver a controlled sub-stance to a prisoner on May 1 and July 12. Presentence reports were ordered. Sentencing was set for April 6, 2015. Both were remanded to jail.

Bond was denied for Sied Dontay Hop-

kins, 21, of East Main Street in Onley, who is awaiting trial for being a member of a street gang and knowingly and will-fully participating in a criminal act for the gang. The incident allegedly occurred at the Accomack Jail on Jan. 1. A trial is scheduled for March.

Secured bond was set at $10,000 for Ashley J. Sawyer, 30, of Jackson Street in Melfa, indicted on eight counts of welfare fraud occurring between May 1, 2011, and May 31, 2014 and involving $12,068 worth of services.

…………………………………Accomack District Court

Juquan Cortez Portier, the 23-year-old former Parksley resident accused of shooting four people last month during a birthday party near Parksley, was denied bond Monday in Accomack District Court.

He says he did not commit the crimes and was in Pungoteague with the moth-er of his two youngest children when the incident occurred.

Defense lawyer Carl Bundick asked Judge Gordon Vincent to set bail.

“The commonwealth has great con-cerns for the safety of witnesses” who say they saw Portier at the party, said prosecutor Spencer Morgan. “He should stay where he is.”

“These are very serious charges,” Vin-cent agreed. “Four people were shot. … I don’t think that he should have bond.”

Portier is being held in Accomack Jail on four counts of discharging a firearm in an occupied building, four counts of aggravated malicious shooting and one count each of use of a firearm in a felony and possession of a firearm by a felon.

When deputies arrived at the scene of the reported shooting on Parksley Road on Nov. 23, they found four vic-tims. All were taken to Riverside Shore Memorial Hospital in Nassawadox and then transferred to facilities in Hamp-ton Roads for more treatment.

Papers filed in Accomack District Court identify the victims as McKinley Pettit, Patrick Joseph and Davar Pur-nell. A fourth victim is a juvenile. His case was sent to Accomack Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court.

The charge states the victims were “se-verely injured and … suffer permanent and significant physical impairment.”

Portier was on probation when the shootings occurred. He was convicted of two counts of robbery in 2008 in Ches-terfield County, Va., and sentenced to 20 years in prison, with 19 years suspended.

viewed a request by the county’s paid EMS staff to be allowed to volunteer with area volunteer EMS squads dur-ing their off-duty time. After a similar request at two previous sessions, Nunez developed a policy statement that speci-fies under what circumstances the paid staff would be allowed to volunteer. Speaking for Community Fire and Res-cue of Exmore, Greg DeYoung support-ed the idea of allowing paid staff to vol-unteer, but opposed the rule that could result in a reprimand should a staff member be late for duty while assist-ing a volunteer squad on a call. Nunez said she supports the policy as written in order to protect the county. The board tabled the matter for additional review.

A final action by the board was to grant a request by Machipongo resi-dent Arthur Upshur to construct a “yurt” on his property that is part of the Deer Path Agricultural Forestal District (AFD). He explained that a “yurt” is a type of tent and platform that he wishes to add to his farm to serve a variety of uses, including a place for employees to have meals and breaks. His farm has a temporary pro-gram for interns and apprentices, as well as work-share customers, that re-quires more space than he has on his farm. Because the property involves an AFD, the county requires approval for certain things to be built on it. The board approved the request.

Sessions Will Consider Retirement Program

By Linda CicoiraAccomack Schools will host two more

town-hall meetings to discuss possible changes in its early retirement option (ERO).

The first session was held last night. The others will be from 3:30 to 5 p.m. Monday, Dec. 15, at Chincoteague High School and Wednesday, Dec. 17, at Nandua High School.

“It has become very clear that changes to the ERO are necessary,” Su-perintendent Dr. Kregg Cuellar said. “However, what hasn’t been decided is what those changes will look like.”

The current retirement plan allows teachers with 30 years’ experience in Virginia — at least 15 in Accomack County — to retire early. All employ-ees can get 10 percent of their final sal-ary for 10 days of work annually.

County officials have urged the School Board to do away with the pro-gram because of the high pay it pro-vides to substitute administrators.

Up for discussion is a phaseout strategy for current employees over two years and paying retired teachers the same as other long-term substi-tutes. How much that would save was not disclosed.

The program would only be available for seven years after retirement and participants would be asked to sign an agreement to provide at least 15 or 20 days of service to receive the pay rate.

James Lawrence (Larry) Fletcher boards a Warbird-1942 Stearman PT 17 in 1942 while in the Civil Air Patrol. He watched for enemy ships from Ocean City to Salisbury, Md. The patrol members used their own planes and fuel without pay for the service.

By Linda CicoiraHe helped keep World War II from

coming to the Eastern Shore and the rest of the United States and was fi-nally recognized for that service more than seven decades later by receiving the highest honor that can be given by the federal govern-ment, the Congres-sional Gold Medal.

James Law-rence (Larry) Fletcher, a 92-year-old Parksley na-tive, who protected our borders in the Civil Air Patrol (CAP), got the rec-ognition Wednes-day along with other survivors.

He joins the ranks of George Washington, the first to be given the honor, the Wright Brothers, Rosa Parks, Charles Lindbergh, Thom-as Edison, Douglas MacArthur, Bob Hope, Walt Disney, Winston Churchill, Robert Kennedy, John Wayne, Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf and Pope John Paul II.

Fletcher was born in the heart of Parksley on Feb. 14, 1922. He graduated in 1939 from Parksley High, where his sister, Doris Fletcher, taught for decades. Larry Fletcher and his wife, Maybelle, ran Eastern Shore Air Service in Park-sley before they moved to Texas.

He was one of 40 surviving mem-bers to receive the medal. The Sugar Land resident was cited particularly for saving a fellow aviator’s life after their plane went into the Atlantic be-cause of a fuel problem.

“I wanted him to have a life jacket,” Fletcher said. “I didn’t want him fight-ing for mine. So I just went back onto the wing and onto the flap and the window was down on the door and I reached into the seat where the life jacket was,” he added. “It’s nice to be appreciated after all that.”

Anyone who went down in the water

— military or CAP — became a mem-ber of the Goldfish Club. They often wore a badge (not a formal military patch), a white-winged goldfish flying over two blue waves.

Fletcher logged more than 850 hours patrolling from Virginia Beach

to Ocean City, Md., looking for German subs and u-boats. The mem-bers used their own airplanes and paid for their own fuel; 65 pilots died.

“Without their service, many more would have perished,” said Rep. Michael T. McCaul during the ceremony Wednes-day. “My dad was my hero and now so are all of you. … We pause indebt-ed forever to the greatest genera-tion … on behalf of

a grateful nation, we say, ‘Thank you.’ ”“Americans took it upon themselves

to … rush into the skies and protect our shores … to scan the waves for ship, survivors and submarines,” said Rep. Nancy Pelosi. “Today’s gold medal may be long overdue … but we’re hap-py to bestow it.”

“We were volunteers in the true test of American tradition,” said former Rep. and Maj. Gen. Lester Wolf, also a CAP member. “The situation was so dire at the time … inner tubes were used as makeshift life jackets. We flew … in all kinds of weather, in very flim-sy aircraft. … Later we were armed with small bombs.

Wolf said the men and women flew 24 million miles, identified 173 subma-rines, dropped 82 bombs, and located hundreds in distress. In addition, he reported that 92 aircraft were lost.

Wolf accepted the gold medal on behalf of the veterans. CAP members and the families of those who have passed will receive replica medals to commemorate their service.

AAA’s Automotive Engineering experts are confident new advanced driver assistance technologies like blind-spot monitoring and lane-departure warning systems have great potential to keep drivers safer, as long as motorists are aware of system limitations. As part of AAA’s auto technology series, these two systems were recently evaluated. While the systems performed effectively in multiple situations, this evaluation uncovered scenarios where the systems failed to perform as expected. This included delayed warnings by the blind-spot monitoring technologies and lane-departure warning systems failing to track the lane under certain road conditions.

AAA’s research, conducted with the Automobile Club of Southern California’s Automotive Research Center, found that:

Blind-spot monitoring systems had difficulty detecting fast-moving vehicles – such as when merging onto a busy highway. Alerts were often provided too late for evasive action.

Motorcycles were detected by blind-spot monitoring systems 26 percent later than passenger vehicles.

Road conditions were often a problem for lane-departure warning systems. Worn pavement markers, construction zones and intersections can cause the lane-departure warning system to lose track of lane location.

The litany of alerts and warnings could be confusing. Auditory, visual or haptic responses – or a combination – could be similar to other advanced driver assistance features that delivered the same warnings.

“With nearly three-quarters of 2014 vehicles offering blind-spot detection and 50 percent offering lane-departure warning as options, it’s key that consumers are educated on how to get the best benefit from these systems,” says Georjeane Blumling, spokesperson for AAA Tidewater Virginia. “AAA’s tests found that these systems are a great asset to drivers, but there is a learning curve.”

Test-track and on-road evaluations also highlighted system performance differences between test vehicles. “Some blind-spot monitoring systems we tested had a short detection range, which meant that a vehicle was already in the blind spot before the alert came on,” says Megan McKernan, Manager of Automotive Engineering at the Automobile Club of Southern California. “The lane-departure warning system on several vehicles experienced false-positive and miss-detections, which resulted in an inconsistent driver warning. This can be annoying and could result in the driver disabling the system due to the false alerts.”

Pros and cons aside, motorists will encounter advanced driver assistance technology as automakers cascade these devices across vehicle lines. Being aware

of these systems and understanding how they operate is a necessary step before driving the vehicle.

“As travelers head out for holiday visits, they may be renting a vehicle equipped with blind-spot monitoring or lane-departure warning systems,” says Blumling. “It’s important to take the time to review these systems so that you’re prepared for alerts and warnings and understand the limits of the technology.”

In addition to AAA’s Automotive Engineering evaluation of these systems, the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety has also provided an assessment of lane-departure warning systems, along with six other advanced technologies, in the August 2014 report Evaluating Technologies Relevant to the Enhancement of Driver Safety. Conducted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology AgeLab, this study rates not only the potential for lane-departure systems to reduce crash fatalities but also rates how this advanced driver technology has actually performed based on the limited data currently available. Motorists can review the AAA Foundation’s rating for new in-vehicle technologies, along with extensive informational material, at https://www.aaafoundation.org/ratings-vehicle-safety-technology

Page 18: December 12, 2014 Zoning Protest Draws Crowd...2014/12/12  · December 12, 2014 • eastern shore Post • 5 DEC 12-14, 2014 Nandua High School Fri & Sat 7pm • Sun 2pm Kids 12u

Nandua added three inductees to its Hall of Fame last Thursday night. The inaugural class two years ago included Coach Trent Serini, Coach Tom Parks, Coach Buck Boggs, collegiate basket-ball star Kim Giddens, Coach Tony Washington and NFL players Todd and T.J. Washington. Last year, Coach Dennis Custis, principal Larry Thomas, athletic director Ben Askew and NFL player and Olympian Lawrence Burton were voted in the Nandua Hall of Fame.

The Hall of Fame is intended to honor individuals who have graduated from either Nandua or one of the three schools that preceded consolidation: Onancock, Central and Mary N. Smith. Inductees have either excelled in ath-letics or made significant contributions to their schools.

The inductees this year were Kim Miles, football and track star at Onan-cock; B.A. Walker, who led Nandua to back-to-back state basketball champi-onships in 2001 and 2002; and yours truly, inducted for a journalistic career that has spanned 38 years and includ-ed sports coverage highlighting area athletes in high school and beyond.

In 1964, his senior year at Onan-cock, Miles was named the Shore’s out-standing player of the year in football and made third team All-State when there was only one team named re-gardless of school size. He was named co-player of the year in basketball and honorable mention All-State, and in track was the state champion in the 100- and 220-yard dashes both his ju-nior and senior seasons.

Miles led Onancock to state track titles his junior and senior years and was timed in what were then all-time marks with a 10 flat in the 100 and 22.2 in the 200-yard dash and was part

of a record-setting 880 relay team. At Trinity College in Hartford,

Conn., Miles continued to excel in ath-letics and academics. He still holds school records for 161 yards rushing in a game by a quarterback and longest pass completion (84 yards).

He led his team in scoring his senior year and in the team’s only loss that season, by 1 point, he threw touchdown passes of 77 and 68 yards and ran for touchdowns of 74 and 7 yards. In track, he was timed in 9.9 seconds in the 100-yard dash.

Miles, the ultimate scholar-athlete, was Phi Beta Kappa at Trinity College, twice the winner of national scholar-athlete awards and one of two Virginia finalists for a Rhodes Scholarship to attend Oxford University in 1968.

Miles, always modest despite his im-pressive résumé, talked about the im-portance of teamwork and his stellar Onancock cast.

B.A. Walker was a two-time Group A State Player of the Year. His 2,257 ca-reer points rank 12th in Virginia High School League history. His career scor-ing average of 26.7 points per game ranks seventh all-time among Virginia high-school players.

At VCU, he set a school record with 269 3-pointers made throughout his 4-year career and his 1,480 career points ranked him 11th in VCU history. He was a key player on the VCU team that beat Duke in the NCAA tournament in 2007.

Walker has enjoyed a solid profes-sional basketball career overseas and this season is playing in France, hav-ing previously played in Finland, Ger-many, Belgium, Iceland and Holland.

His parents, Bobby and Shelia, ac-cepted the award for him, noting B.A. always put the team first and admired his older brother, Tyree, whom he helps conduct a basketball clinic at Nandua each summer.

The Hall of Fame induction is held just prior to the Fall Sports Award Cer-emony. Thus, the athletes in attendance waiting to receive their hard-earned awards were somewhat of a captive au-dience for an old geezer like me.

I probably spent a bit too long remi-niscing about the athletes I have cov-ered and noting some of the outstand-ing athletes from previous eras who are deserving of Hall of Fame recogni-tion. I wanted to make it clear that my induction had little to do with the fact I was a solid player on a very good 1968 Central football team, but was based on a 38-year career in journalism that featured profiling successful athletes and covering local teams.

But, hopefully, they heard the mes-sage I was trying to impart that the most important thing they can do in school is obtain the best education pos-sible to prepare them for life. Dream-ing of a college scholarship or a future in professional sports is fine. Students who have sat in those same seats have accomplished that. But the odds are long, and a college education or trade is the safety valve every athlete needs.

Bob Knight, the Hall of Fame bas-ketball coach, is not one of my favorite sports figures, but he had one of my favorite quotes: “The will to succeed is important, but what’s more important

is the will to prepare.”We all want to win the games we

play or succeed at the highest level possible in life, but what separates the winners from the losers and the achievers from the failures is the moti-vation to prepare for the contest or the future. The individual who works and sacrifices when the crowd is not cheer-ing or no one is looking is the person most likely to succeed in whatever en-deavor they take on.

I hope I also conveyed to the athletes that although their education is the most important thing they can obtain at school, the most memorable events will have taken place on the athletic fields and their best friendships will likely be with their teammates.

The lessons learned in the athletic arena and the bonding that takes place among teammates carry on through life. I don’t think I am alone in saying I have probably spent more time reminiscing and recalling my high-school athletic ca-reer than the time I actually spent play-ing. The time on the field seemed to pass in the blink of an eye. I also have drawn upon those lessons when facing adversi-ty and relied on the help of former team-mates when needed.

I know I speak for B.A. and Kim in saying the honor bestowed upon us last week is greatly appreciated.

Hunters for HungryNeed Deer Donations

The Eastern Shore Chapter of the Hunters for the Hungry needs deer do-nations during this final month of the hunting season.

The program has received 75 deer to

date, with a goal of 200 deer. Now that the doe harvest restriction has been re-moved for the remainder of the season, the local chapter is encouraging hunt-ers to donate deer to the program. The deer hunting season closes on Jan. 3.

Deer must be properly registered and field-dressed. The deer may be tak-en to the refrigerated trailers at The Foodbank in Tasley, B&B Convenience on Lankford Highway in Machipongo, or Chris’ Bait and Tackle in Capeville. The deer also may be taken directly to the processors: Brent Powell, in Wacha-preague, Matt Killmon at Buck Trails in Onancock, or Scott Hines at Eastern Shore Outfitters in Exmore. Matthews Market in Mappsville will take only skinned deer during business hours. There is no cost to the hunter to donate deer to the program.

Hunters for the Hungry is a non-profit organization and contributions are deductible as allowed by law. With 2014 closing, the chapter also encour-ages any end-of-year donations to pay for the processing costs for the deer. Donations, made out to “Hunters for the Hungry” may be sent to Worth Saunders, chapter director, at P.O. Box 1702, Parksley, VA 23421.

SPORTS SHORTS

The Northampton girls’ basketball team stormed back from a 6-point defi-cit at halftime with a 22-1 run in the final quarter to defeat Arcadia 54-39 Tuesday night at home.

“We turned up the defensive pres-sure in the last quarter and got some easy baskets,” said Jacket coach Leo Owens. “Arcadia came out strong and controlled the game in the early going.”

Quintara Lyons had a monster night with 32 points, using her quick-ness for many of her baskets. Taylor Nadeau added 11, and Briana Wil-liams chipped in 7 points.

Sarah Jones led Arcadia with 15 points and Normaya Harris had 12 and grabbed six rebounds. Her twin sister, Nomeia Harris, had 8 points and six re-bounds.

Arcadia coach Claudia Collins said Normaya Harris had 15 steals, but wasn’t always able to convert them into points. “I was pleased with the effort, we just need to work on a few things. Everything went downhill once Northampton got the momentum in the last quarter.”

The game was tied at 26 at half, and the Lady Firebirds took a 38-32 third

-quarter lead before the pivotal final stanza.

Nandua Girls Win OpenerThe Nandua girls scored an easy

48-8 win over Chincoteague Tuesday night on the island. Khadijha Rob-inson led the Lady Warriors with 12 points, Angelique Taylor had 9, and Kyteia Smaw added 7.

Pony coach Kelly Fox said, “Our main season goal is to improve every game. Getting back to basics is what it’s going to take.”

Chincoteague had 2 points each from Kristin Fox, Ronney Malone, Krista Reed and Nicole Howard.

Ponies Drop PairThe Lady Ponies lost their opening

two games to Salisbury Christian 30-6 and Worcester Prep 57-8. Kristen Fox led Chincoteague with 6 points against Salis-bury. Sarah Turner had 7 points with a pair of 3-pointers against Worcester Prep.

Nandua Girls FallThe Nandua girls opened their sea-

son Friday night with a 57-37 loss to

Rappahannock. Kyteia Smaw and Khadijha Robin-

son were the leading scorers with 12 and seven points, respectively.

The Lady Warriors host Maggie Walker tomorrow at 1:30 p.m.

Jacket Girls FallThe Northampton girls’ basket-

ball team dropped a 58-43 decision to North umberland on Saturday. Quin-tara Lyons led the Lady Jackets with 23 points. Briana Williams had 11, and Taylor Nadeau added 9 points.

Shore DiStrict GirlS open hoop Slate

Tyreim Blake and Will Farlow of Nandua both made second team 2A East All-Region. Blake was selected as defensive back, and Farlow was tabbed as linebacker.

Nandua coach Deitrick Downing describes Blake as “very intimidating and physical at free safety.”

Downing added, “Tyreim was our quarterback on the defensive side of the ball as well. Tyreim was simply a

game changer on defense, coming up with big plays at cru-cial moments of several games this season.”

Blake had 60 tackles, three sacks, seven tackles for loss, six forced fumbles, and five interceptions, returning two for touchdowns.

Farlow led the Nandua defense with 81 tackles this season. “Will plays with a lot of heart and passion for the game,” said Coach Downing. “He is a very physi-cal and aggressive football player. I look forward to Will stepping up and being a team leader on the field, in the locker room and during the off-season as we prepare for next year,” added Downing.

Arcadia Comeback Axes Jackets

Voshawn Davis of Chincoteague drives as Anthony Smith, 30, of Nandua attempts to draw a charging foul. Davis scored on the play.

Nandua won its opening district game of the year with a high-scoring 70-61 win over Chincoteague Tuesday night at home.

Tyreim Blake and Anthony Smith had 18 points each to lead the War-riors. Qyheem Johnson tallied 8, while Evan McGregor and Qyheem Kellam added 7 each.

Coach Cedrick Cooper said Blake stepped up and led the team on both ends of the court. “He’s our leader. When we need to get things under control, Tyreim is the player we look to,” said Cooper, adding that he was impressed with Chincoteague’s play. “I told our players Chincoteague was not going to be the same team we have played in the past. We were on our heels a bit in the early going, but came back strong to get the win.”

Jakiel Handy had 23 points to lead the Ponies, with Voshawn Davis scor-ing 12 points. Trevor Bailey had 12 points and 11 rebounds.

Pony coach Will Thompson said foul shooting hurt his team. “We were 11 of 31 from the free-throw line. We beat our-selves shooting like that. Still, I liked the

way we competed against a good Nan-dua team. We didn’t back down.”

Nandua dropped its season opener on the road Friday night to Rappahan-nock 64-45. Blake and Kellam led the Warriors with 12 points each, followed by Smith with 11.

Nandua coach Cooper noted Kellam “played under control and was aggres-sive on both ends of the court.”

The Warriors trailed by only 2 after the first quarter, but Rappahannock spurted to a 9-point halftime lead and held serve with 14 points each for both teams in the third before outscoring Nandua 17-7 in the final quarter.

Chincoteague Tops SCThe Chincoteague boys topped

Salisbury Christian 55-41 Friday night as Gardner Fosque scored 15 points, grabbed eight rebounds and had five assists. Jakiel Handy had 12 points and seven assists. Anthony Wailes add-ed 7 points and eight rebounds.

Pony coach Will Thompson said the team ran the court much better in the second half as Chincoteague opened its lead with a 35-point outburst after in-termission.

Arcadia used a 17-7 advan-tage in the fourth quarter to earn a 52-43 win over Northampton Tuesday night in the district opener for both teams.

The Jackets opened a 13-8 first-quarter lead and took a 25-22 lead into halftime, but after trailing by 1 entering the final quarter, the Firebirds surged ahead with a 17-7 margin in the final quarter.

Eric Grinnage led Arcadia with 13 points, while Acie Mapp added 11.

“We turned up the defensive pressure in the second half,” said Coach Keon Harmon, filling in for longtime Arcadia coach Al-vin Justice, who is out for medi-cal reasons. “It’s just our second game, so we have some areas to improve on.”

Antonio Robinson was the only Jacket player in double fig-

ures with 13 points. Northampton coach Wayne

Bell lamented a continuing problem with turnovers for his team. “We had 28 turnovers for the game. Arcadia took the mo-mentum from us because they capitalized on our turnovers.”

Jackets Get First Win

Last week, the Jacket boys earned their first win of the season with a 78-43 decision over Chesterfield Community High School. The Jackets had an 8-point lead at half, but in-creased the defensive pressure in the second half to outscore Ches-terfield 28-8 in the third quarter.

Antonio Robinson scored 12 points to lead the Jackets and also grabbed 10 rebounds. Wayne Bell III had 11 points

Jacket Boys LoseThe Northampton boys’ bas-

ketball team dropped a 76-43 de-cision to Northumberland Satur-day at Eastville.

Antonio Robinson and Dashawn White each had 8 points to lead Northampton. Wayne Bell III and James Braxton added 6. Robinson grabbed 10 rebounds to lead the Jackets.

Jacket coach Wayne Bell said his team needs to improve in sev-eral areas. “We shot poorly from the floor and the free-throw line (13 of 28). They pressured our guards who had another tough night with turnovers. Our defen-sive effort was poor, and we didn’t get back on transition well to stop easy baskets.

“We will continue to work on free-throw shooting, ball han-dling and defense,” added Bell.

Vikings Outrun Ponies; Czesak Scores 30Broadwater outlasted Chincoteague

72-58 Wednesday night at home as Keegan Czesak scored 30 points com-ing off the bench, including 13 in the final quarter. Czesak, a 6’, 6” transfer, was playing only his second game of the season for the Vikes, now 3-3.

Twins Taylor and Tyler Major had 18 and 12 points, respectively, as both teams played a fast-paced game that featured numerous drives to the basket.

Jakiel Handy had 23 points to lead Chincoteague, but only one basket and four foul shots in the second half as his 17 first-half points, including a trio of 3-pointers, helped the Ponies stay with-in range at 34-31 at halftime. The Vi-kings had a 18-8 third-quarter margin.

Voshawn Davis and Trevor Bailey had 8 points each for the Ponies, who were missing Gardner Fosque, out with an injured arm for the second consecu-tive game.

Viking coach Eddie Spencer was pleased with the offensive output, but said the Vikings had areas that need im-provement. “We need to cut down on our turnovers and play better defense.”

Broadwater played Atlantic Shores last night in a game completed after Post deadlines and travels to Williamsburg Christian next Tuesday. Both teams are usually contenders for VISAA state titles.

Major Scores 32as Vikes Win

The Broadwater boys earned their first hoop win of the season with a 52-45 win Friday night as Taylor Major led all scorers with 24 points.

The Vikings started slowly and trailed 20-14 at halftime before out-scoring the visitors 38-25 in the sec-ond half.

“We had better ball movement in the second half,” said Viking coach Eddie Spencer. “In the first half everyone was trying to make a play on their own. We started getting the ball to people in the right places.”

Major also had 11 rebounds to lead the Vikings. Major Morgan added seven points, with Tyler Major scoring 6.

Alex Lensch led Denbigh with 15 points.

Broadwater BeatsStoneBridge 75-62

Broadwater placed four players in double figures, led by Taylor Major’s 32 points, in defeating StoneBridge 75-62 Tuesday night at home.

Tyler Major scored 14 points and Keegan Czesak, playing in his first game as a Viking, scored 12 points. Tommy

Golibart had 10 points and also added seven rebounds.

Taylor Major had a team-high 17 re-bounds, with Czesak grabbing eight.

The Vikings trailed 18-13 after one quarter, but took a 33-31 halftime lead and pulled away with a 24-11 margin in the third quarter.

The Vikings play at Williamsburg Christian Tuesday and then are in a hol-iday tournament at Nansemond Suffolk next weekend.

Chincoteague TopsWorcester Prep

Chincoteague raised its record to 3-0 with a 59-48 win over Worcester Prep Monday night. Gardner Fosque and An-thony Wailes each had 10 points and 10 rebounds, with Jaquan Persinger com-ing off the bench to spark the Ponies with 14 points and six rebounds.

“Persinger gave us a real boost when he entered the game,” said Pony coach Will Thompson.

Drevon Johnson and Trevor Bailey each had 6 points for Chincoteague.

One night after going 10 for 28 from the free-throw line, the Ponies hit 12 of 13 foul shots, including 6 of 6 by Fosque.

The Ponies led 31-18 at halftime and substituted liberally in the second half.

The Broadwater girls won their sec-ond game against no losses Tuesday night with a 49-27 win over Stone-Bridge out of Chesapeake.

Anna Sexauer led the Lady Vikings with 14 points on 6-of-12 shooting and grabbed a team-high eight re-bounds, while Jenna Hare contributed 12 points on six of 11 shots from the floor. Palmer Smith had 10 points and led the defense with 11 steals. Senior Kathleen Kraft had 7 points and six rebounds.

Broadwater led 24-8 at halftime in the district contest.

Lady Vikes Win OpenerThe Broadwater girls won their sea-

son basketball opener with a 51-31 win over Denbigh Baptist Friday night at the Hall Center in Exmore.

Freshman Anna Sexauer had a game-high 17 points and grabbed a

team-high 10 rebounds, while Kath-leen Kraft had 16 points and added seven rebounds to lead Broadwater.

Catherine Long also reached dou-ble figures with 10 points. Courtney Floyd, a freshman, contributed nine rebounds.

Broadwater held a 29-8 halftime lead before substituting liberally in the second half. Coach Ralph Dodd has a young Viking squad with seniors Kraft and Jenna Hare and sophomore Long, and the other Lady Vikings ei-ther freshmen or eighth graders.

“I thought we did a good job with our press and protecting the basket on the back end,” said Dodd. “We always try to play hard and get the loose balls. The girls work hard in practice.”

Broadwater used a three-quarter zone press that produced 19 steals, in-cluding a team-high seven by Sexauer.

By Dr. Julie BallWith slowly dropping water tem-

peratures, most winter-time species are active when boats can get out to target them. A decent weather win-dow spanning the upcoming week-end could be very good news for some local striped-bass tournaments as boats assemble in masses along the eastern side of the bay in hopes of en-countering some of the biggest rock-fish of the season.

As the holiday season approach-es, the big striped bass continue their push into local waters, where 40-pounders are becoming com-monplace. Even a few 50-pound-ers are appearing in the lower bay this week. Most of these larger fish

continue to come from the bayside of the Eastern Shore area, where boats are drifting with eels along the channels and shoals off Planta-tion Light, Kiptopeke State Park, and Fisherman’s Island. Boats troll-ing in these same areas also are finding some receptive fish.

Plenty of big fish action also is still available for boats presenting live eels along the light lines and pilings at the high-rise section of the bridge-tunnel, mostly at night. Although the bay action is already good, nice fish are still on their way from the north. School-sized rockfish are also still available for anglers casting along the pilings and artificial islands of all the lower bay bridges.

Many Northampton Officials Need To Be Replaced

Dear Editor:First, thank you, Eastern Shore Post, for your

continued coverage and interest in our plight in Northampton County.

After the recent Northampton County Board of Supervisors’ meeting and preceding resistance rally at the courthouse, well-attended by over 150 very concerned, verbally concise, expressive taxpaying citizens, it’s very clear that the board, with one ex-ception, Mr. Granville Hogg, does not represent the majority of the citizens in this county.

It’s also very clear that they are motivated solely by and represent a select few special-interest groups of developers, realtors, engineering and construc-tion businesses. These people, including County Administrator Katie Nunez, and strangely absent, highly paid County Economic Development Coordi-nator Charles McSwain, have shown themselves to be incompetent, wasteful, and unresponsive to the public. It’s actually quite amazing to behold their official behavior.

It’s very clear in the minds of a growing citi-zenry that they need to be replaced, now. A Recall Election is the most direct means. The longer these

individuals rule over the decision-making process and the purse strings of this county, the deeper into debt the county will slide, and the more dif-ficult it will be to pull out from the growing debt burden. These individuals have no successful track record of efficiency or of past successful projects; quite the opposite, in fact. They sit in their seats of power because they were elected to their positions and/or appointed.

It is time to reverse that process so that progress in Northampton County can be made in our time of economic scarcity and, what appears to be, a national breakdown on many levels of honesty in government and continuing flagrant violations of U.S. construc-tional intention and people’s mandate.

Jim Welch, Melfa

Boys & Girls Club Says ‘Thanks’Dear Editor:

On Nov. 15, the Eastern Shore Boys and Girls Club (B&GC) presented its 6th annual Swine & Wine dinner, the B&GC’s signature fund raiser, and was joined by over 200 supporters at Bill Parr’s barn.

On behalf of the board, I would like to thank the dinner’s sponsors, volunteers, those who celebrated, and especially, Bill Parr, who made his barn avail-able. The B&CG, located at Occohannock Elemen-tary, is an after-school program that provides a safe haven, hot meal and academic support for Shore children.

Bill Payne, Chairman B&GC

Being curious can be a curse. One can’t simply turn off the questions. Most have to know more and more and more until the behavior is viewed as eccentric or unusual.

In this case, my quest was to learn all I could about Santa Claus. Con-sider all his aliases — Saint Nicholas, Father Christmas, Kris Kringle, Mr. Claus and for short, Santa or Santie. Then ponder what he knows or wants to know.

Have you been a good little boy or girl this year? Yes, it is that burning question, the one that stops you dead

in your tracks as you look over the pre-vious 12 months and try to shrug off those naughty and definitely not nice things you said or did.

Perhaps you were good, but the cynic (which is the twin of the curious) says that is most doubtful. So do only the little angels get presents? No, if that were so, there wouldn’t be many gifts to hand out.

What we do know is that Santa lives on the Eastern Shore through most of the year. Is there any thought that a man of such means would want to be anywhere else? Nope. Santa is a chubby, happy man who doesn’t like to shave. That could be near ’bout anyone. Sometimes he wears glasses. Again, that could be anyone.

I’m thinking a guy that’s been de-livering presents since I was a kid is probably contemplating retirement. Will Santa ever do that? There’s a lot to ponder during the holiday time. Ac-comac lawyer Jon Poulson is retiring. Could he be Santa?

Exactly who are these elf charac-ters? They must live locally also. Do they get paid well? After all, the work is seasonal. What are they doing the rest of the time? I think they must be watermen since we all know they can manage to get things done even when it’s freezing outside.

Could it be that the workshop is around these parts? It would have to be a place where the watermen could navigate. Ah ha! My guess is Tangier Island. It would be the perfect place.

It’s somewhat desolate — which keeps the nosy folks from snooping around. There’s an airport and sea-ports. I just know I’m on to something. After all, how else would Santa conve-niently fly into Melfa for his famous annual greeting? There has to be a connection.

If you know someone from Tangi-er, I suggest you ask them. I’ve been contemplating calling the town office over there, but I know they will just laugh at me. It’s not that kind of day.

AND I want to stay on the good list no matter how nosy I am. After all, I love presents.

Also, if you run into Mr. Poulson, you might want to ask him about his plans. Just picture him with a white beard. He could be the one. But he has been associated more with Chinco teague than Tangier. Is the workshop up in Ponytown? Are the reindeer really members of the wild herd? It’s making more and more sense. The elves could be volunteer firefighters. Hmm.

I also have imagined the workshop at Mason’s Beach near Hacks Neck. It too is a perfect location for space and secrecy.

Then again, why couldn’t Northamp-ton County harbor the legendary man? The necks and back roads there could lead to anywhere.

OK, so there is a lot to consider. But, regardless, Santa Claus is coming to town. And I really don’t care who he is just so long as I’m on the nice list and he hasn’t stopped working. Yippee!
