'Beanie " cancer hoaxter accused of theft from ill relative BY JIM McGAULEY Press Publisher Guess who's in the news again? Vicki Spivey, 37, on probation for faking a case of leukemia and stealing $12,000 donated for her treat- ment, was named January 6 in a criminal complaint for stealing money from an ill cousin. The complaint made by Ottis McDaniel, 54, of Mac- clenny, alleges Ms. Spivey overdrew the amount she was authorized to spend while staying with the com- plainant at his west city address for two weeks. While Mr. McDaniel, who has liver cancer, was hos- pitalized he alleges Ms. Spivey failed to deposit anoth- er $173 into his account. She told him the money was taken from Mr. McDaniel's Ford Explorer pickup dur- ing a burglary, a claim he disputes. He says both the window and door lock Ms. Spivey said were damaged in the alleged breaking have been broken since he bought the truck several years ago. Ms. Spivey, a former case worker at Northeast Florida State Hospital, was sentenced in August, 2000 to six months in county jail and four and a half years on probation after pleading guilty to the cancer fraud. Her own family turned her in to police the previous fall after becoming suspicious about her spending habits. It was soon discovered she faked her illness, and concocted a scheme to transfer foundation dona- tions and other cash to a bogus clinic and bank account, then back to herself. She spent a considerable amount of the funds pur- chasing collector dolls, earning her the name Beanie Baby Scammer. She tearfully pleaded guilty to the crime in early 2000. The sheriff's department sought to question Ms. Spivey following Mr. McDaniel's complaint, but soon learned she had been arrested in Jacksonville on a Nassau County warrant for dealing in stolen property. Ms. Spivey has a Fernandina Beach address, and a spokeswoman for the Nassau County department was unable to give details of the warrant late Tuesday. A computer check of inmates in the Duval County system did not produce her name. Mr. McDaniel, who has no insurance and is on the list for a liver transplant, had been soliciting funds in recent weeks, though it is not immediately known if any of the missing money was from donations. Mr. McDaniel told Deputy Darrin Whitaker after he asked Ms. Spivey to leave his Magnolia St. address, he found his savings account ledger in a garbage can. He also said he believes his cousin attempted to poison him while she was living at his residence. Among those who have been helping Mr. McDaniel, an out-of-work meat cutter who worked at several local stores, was Ms. Spivey's mother Gail of Macclenny, who is also a nurse.

GAIHESVILLE, FL 32611 AKER COUNTY PRESS 76th Year, Vol. 38 Thursday January 12, 2006 Macclenny, Florida 50 Better inspection system translates to lower ISO rating Some insurance savings on new home The Baker County Building and Zoning office got a bit of good news recently, as did. homeowners who plan to build in 2006, when the county's ISO (Insurance Ser- vices Office) rating for new con- struction dropped from 5 to 3. The lower rating generally trans- lates to correspondingly lower property insurance rates, similar to the effect lower ISO fire ratings have on fire insurance. A review was conducted in the last quarter of 2005 based on the ISO's Building Code Effectiveness Grading Schedule, and the county scored high enough in several key areas to earn the "3" rating for single and two- family structures, and for com- mercial buildings. "What this means is we've been able to show the national rating service we've come up to snuff in several key areas, and as a result they can say construction is more durable and able to withstand things like hurricanes," said Robert Hathcox, for six years now the county's chief building official. Just how much those savings will add up to is a bit elusive, since it depends on the size of the structure and type of cover- age. But overall, the lower ISO translates into lower rates. Unfortunately, the new rat- ing on the 1-10 scale will not help anyone who built prior to First fatality of '06 is one vehicle crash The first road fatality of the new year occurred the afternoon of Jan- uary 5 just east of Sanderson on Interstate 10. Linda C. McNulty. 74, of Mc- Donough, Ga. died at the scene when her eastbound 2004 Buick veered off-the road to the inside grass median, then overcorrected and hit both a call box post and a tree. Ms. McNulty was alone in the vehicle when the accident hap- pened about 4:40. She was wearing a seat belt, according to Cpl. David Banzinot of the Florida Highway Patrol. The fatality was similar to one that occurred about two miles west on December 10, taking the life of a Crestview, Fla. woman in the early morning hours. Her two chil- dren survived. The day after Christmas, Baker County's final fatal road accident of 2005 took place when a Glen St. Mary man ran off CR 229.

Too cool and it get done in time and you with a bunch of hungry, aggravated people standing n your yard at noon the next (Page two please) In the past, making the two-hour" drive to partake of this gustatory delight was a small price to pay for such pleasure. Sure, seeing all the kinfolk is important and it's fun to see new babies and how much the older kids have grown in the past year. But I'm there for the food. Never one to be shy about eating as soon as the blessing is over. I grab a plate and belly up to the trough. In addition to the succulent pig, the tables groan with side dishes brought by all the families. I always taste everything. Even if three peo- ple make potato salad and cole slaw, I taste it all. The best part, of course, is the to- go plate that everyone gets to take home so that this experience can be repeated a second or even third time. Barbecue cooking techniques and sauces vary from region to region and sometimes within a state, from county to county. That's the beauty of this culinary delight. Whether your preference is for chicken, pork, beef or turkey that's grilled, baked; boiled or smoked; plain or basted with ketchup, mustard or vinegar- based sauce there is something to suit everyone's taste and variety is the spice of life. I was delighted to see multiple' sources of my favorite food within a few miles of my office when I first moved to Macclenny. And it's been fun exploring the barbecue traditions of Florida vs. my hometown in South Carolina.

It wasn't quite what I'm used to, but it was pretty close.

He got misty eyed and said in a longing voice, "My uncle Hank's barbecue ribs. He has this honey lemon sauce he bastes 'em with. Man, I used to dream about those ribs." While browsing around on the Internet, I discovered that there is a Florida BBQ Association. The website contains information re- garding barbecue contests and cooking schools across the state and you can even subscribe to The National Barbecue News official newsletter. I talked with some restaurant owners in Macclenny about their barbecue.

A west Macclenny man return- ed home January 8 after a brief absence and found that someone had taken a $500 digital camera and an uncashed insurance check from his residence in Owens Ac- res. Anthony Gray told police sev- eral persons had been. allowed to ,stay at his residence during the absence. He said the check was for $1000. In other recent thefts, someone took a cellular telephone valued at $300 from a 1999 Ford SUV be- longing to Robert Sparks of Mac- clenny. The victim said the theft may have occurred while the vehicle was parked at a local convenience store the evening of January 2. A 17-year-old male student at Baker County High School report- ed his 1992 Ford pickup was dri- ven off the campus the afternoon of January 4. He named a 15-year-old female acquaintance as the likely suspect since she had earlier asked him to leave with her and she knew where the keys were hidden. Two DUI arrests within one hour County deputies made a trio of drunk driving arrests last week,. two of them within an hour of each other in the early morning of, January 8. Daniel Williams, 25, of Bald- win failed to stop on South Bou-. levard while crossing SR 228 in Macclenny, and his 2003 Che\ - rolet pickup struck a northbound vehicle driven by Stephanie Kay, no address given. The accident occurred at 1:44, am and neither driver was injured., Deputy Mark Hall noted that Mr. Williams had difficulty removing his license from a wallet and ap- peared intoxicated. ' He refused to submit to a field sobriety test, nor to a breath test, Among the witnesses at the scene following the accident was County Judge Joey Williams, who lives on the northeast corner of the inter- section. The judge also noted the pres- ence of beer cans in his front yard, and Mr. Williams said they be- longed to him. He apologized for littering, according to the officer.

The officer said Mr. Taylor sat at the Wheel of his 2000 Chevrolet pickup through two cycles of a stop light, then headed south on 121 a direction opposite from the one indicated on his turn signal. Mr. Taylor failed a field sobri- ety test and refused the breath test, according to the officer. Just after 6:00 pm on January 7, the same deputy observed Leon Amerson, 46, of Jasper, Fla. slow- ly drive against a red light through the busy US 90-SR 121 intersec- tion downtown and continue west- bound on 90. The suspect drove into the park- ing lot of Baker Beverage and appeared intoxicated when he exit- ed the Ford pickup. He did poorly on a field sobriety test and refused the breath test.

It is because I have been deep undercover rooting out all the news that you don't see in the papers or hear on TV. Here are some of the stories that you will not hear anywhere else (unless you are hearing voices telling -you to paint yourself purple and sing the Barney theme song in the ,middle of the Orange Park Mall). As you probably know, Vice President Dick Cheney was recent- ly hospitalized for shortness of breath. Sources close to Cheney claimed the VP. who has a history of heart trouble, was worried he might be haing a heart attack. Your intrepid investigative reporter has found the real story. Cheney hasn't been in the public eye much since the terrorist attack on New York. He has been seclud- ed in an undisclosed secure area emerging only long enough to make brutal rants against Democra- tic leadership. After exhaustive research I have discovered the "secure location" is actually) a storage closet at a Star- bucks in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Cheney has gotten used to the tiny closet and after venturing out into the hectic beltway lifestyle, discov- ered he was agoraphobic. After being released from the hospital.. he immediately retreated back into the storage closet after stopping long enough to pick up a Venti Caramel Macchiato and chocolate biscotti. Rev". Pat Robertson once again got into hotwater by claiming that God had struck do%\ n Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, hospitalized with a brain aneurism. Robertson has been hounded by verbal mis-r steps and has called for the assassi- nation of Venezuela's socialist president Hugo Chavez. He also predicted that Dover, Delaware would be struck by the hand of God after the school board voted down a measure to allow creation- ism to be taught in publ ic schools. Your reporter has also uncov- ered some other claims that Rev. Robertson has made recently that haven't reached the public. He withdrew an allegation that Gov. Arnold Schwartzengger's recent motorcycle accident was caused by a bolt from heaven once God real- ized that the governor was a Re- publican. He changed his position, claim- ing that the car that had struck down the former movie star was driven by the chairperson of the Dover, Delaware School Board. Robertson has also gotten flak re- cently for claiming that former De- mocratic presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry is possessed by cartoon character Dudley Doright SThe Department of Homeland Security recently 'raised the terrorist -alert level to Orange, but refused to give out details. After much 'dig- ging I have discovered from my anonymous sources the alert was in response to the possibility that ter- rorists have discovered a new and deadly-weapon. You probably recall the story of the Mexican man who was burning leaves outside his house. When he went inside, he saw a mouse scurry across his floor. He caught the mouse and threw it on the burning pile of leaves. The flaming mouse ran into the house and caught it on fire and burned it to the ground. The DHS official was caution- ary. "This maN seem like an isolat- ed case, but we have to be vigilant. We believe that the Mexican man in question was actually a support- er of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and a terrorist sympathizer and that flaming mice could be a dangerous new weapon in the arse- nal of terrorism." In a related story, Michael Eis- ner. chairman of the Walt Disney Corporation, was quick to point out that the Mexican mouse was in no way related to Mickey Mouse. Rev. Pat Robertson is set to issue a statement claiming that the house fire was a judgment against homo- sexuality. When questioned about the statement, Robertson said that he heard that someone involved in the story was "flaming." Defense attorneys in the illegal campaign financing trial of former lobbyist Jack Abramoff are at- tempting a daring new defense to free the embattled millionaire who is linked to dozens of top politi- cians. Defense attorney Richard Malkowitz is set to claim that Abramoff is innocent ion the grounds that he isrealy, Santaf " Claus and the millions in donations- to political campaigns were actual-; ly Christmas gifts. "Who's to say, he's not," said MNalkowitz, who is confident the new tactic will v,,indicate his client. "What judge is gonna toss Santa in jail? You saw what happened in Miracle on 34th Street." Defense attorneNs are aghast.: "How can Abramoff be Santa Claus? He's Jewish, he doesn't even celebrate Christmas. This is just a cheap defense ploy."' Rev. Pat Robertson warned Abramoff to resign his Santa posi- tion or have his sleigh blown from the sky by a bolt from above. Your opinion counts...

But, please! Do we have to have them attached to our ears during all' waking hours? , This Christmas a hot item was the phone attachments that fit into the ear. Not like a hearing aid (though that's coming) but like an ornament stretching across the e&ar so the mouthpiece is somewhat for- ward on the face. I thought phone attachments to the belt looked dorky. These look . dorkier. I supposed they're gobs safer when one is driving, but they beg the question: what did these people do with their time before we had cell phones? If I spied someone on the phone in the old days, in an airport or at the house or office, I never won- dered who they were talking to. Back then before cell phones, it seems we spent only the time we needed to on the phone. We all know that wasn't any more true then than it is now, but now when I see someone in line at Wendy's on the phone and barking alternately to the person behind the counter and the person at the other end, I ask myself: who are they talking to and why is it important enough to act so rudely? On another, somewhat related front, the debate goes on about e-, mails and instant messaging. Do people say things they wouldn't say if the, were talking to you in person? So they say those things more often? Do we have a. better grasp of communicative skills as a result? Or is the lack of face-to-face carving us into a yet more imper- sonal society? My bet is with the latter. ' You see it in traffic, in crowds at malls and sporting events. People are truly in their ow n worlds, and the facelessnesss" of communica- tion makes it easier for them to stay there. When the telephone was first mass produced and made afford- able for an average household, a lot of old-timers refused to get one. It would be the ruination of social skills and worthwhile com- munication, they argued. If you couldn't walk or ride to your neigh- bor's house and give him the mes- sage personally, it wasn't worth giving. That lasted just as long as it took for the telephone to become indis- pensable about five years. Then one did without a phone at one's own risk. We've all acquiesced a bit with our cell phones and e-mail, but I'll always miss the face-to-face.

Richard and those who did not, it's a hard thing to understand. He had S whole lifetime ahead at 23~and now he's gone. And his % ife, a daughter and a son are left behind. Everyone who knew him also knew this wasn't the Richard we all loved. He was a funny, loving and very outgoing person. He loved being the center of attention and loved to see others smile. From time to time, everyone makes mistakes. We've all done something, both mundane 'and large, that we wish we could change. Does that make us bad per- sons at heart? For Richard, his was a grave mistake. He served in the Air Force, he graduated with honors from the Decker trade school for electrical science. He loved his children and his wife beyond words.. For us, and for the people who knew him, the truth will come out. For those who think drugs are cool and drugs are the thing to do, this is the ultimate outcome - death. Death and loved ones left behind with no answers. There is one good outcome in all of this. Bad as the situation was, two lives were saved due to Richard's last wishes in donating his organs. Richard was loved very much in the short time he lived, and he will continue to be loved forever. CARRIE R. MUNOZ Macclenny 'A Ves a e story ideas As simple as an email..,..

FD Two years for striking policeman, BY MICHAEL RINKER Press Staff Circuit Judge David Glant last week sentenced a Macclenny man to 24 months in prison for battery on a law enforcement officer and resisting arrest. Brandon Glover, 23, was loiter- ing near a home on South Boule- vard September 11 when Deputy Erik DeLoach approached him around 2:19 am. Mr. Glover, who lived on Min- nesota Avenue, said he was "com- ing to see my cousin." Due to the. late hour, the officer searched him for weapons. Mr. Glover pushed his hand away when it reached for his left jacket pocket. He tried to run, but Deputy De- Loach grabbed him. Sgt. James Nickles arrived and Mr. Glover charged him. All three fell to the ground, where the officers subdued and handcuffed him. In his left jacket pocket, Mr. Glower had four small clear bags containing marijuana. He also had $140 cash. He was charged w ith battery on a law enforcement officer, resisit- ing an officer % ith violence, pos- session %%ith intent to sell pot and loiteringprowling. Judge Glant gave him 24 months on each of the first three counts and 60 days on the last one. The sentences ,ill run concurrent- ly. Mr. Glover will receive credit for 120 already served.

Articulaiion is an agreement between two institutions that pro- vides, in this case, an academically conducive benefit for students par- ticipat'ing in programs at both places.. According to Garlon Webb. the school district's director of Vo- cational And Adult Education, stu- dents can earn credit toward a col- lege degree through articulation of technical core courses taken while still at the high school. The purpose behind the articu- lation agreement is a seamless transition between high school and college, allowing a student to suc- cessfully earn an'AS or AAS decree. Baker County High School stu- dents .intending to pursue a graphic design technology degree from Lake City Community College will receive college credit for courses in graphic and digital design, commercial art and studio courses focusing on drawing and fundamentals of design.

Deputy Darrin Whitaker said he had to take evasive action while southbound on SR 121 to avoid hitting a 1988 Buick driven by 24- year-old Rachael Jordan. He stopped the vehicle in the parking lot 'of S&S convenience store nearby, and learned Ms. Jor- dan did not have a driver's license. While he was questioning her, passenger Joplin Moore, 22, of Macclenny allegedly became abu- sive, began cursing Ms. Jordan, and ignoring several requests by the deputy to quiet himself and re- turn to the vehicle. Mr. Moore also resisted efforts by Deputy Mark Hall to seat him in a patrol car. He was charged with disorderly conduct; Ms. Jor- dan with having no license, an improper tag and careless driving. Jeremiah Jones, 23, of.Mac- deputy clenny was charged the morning of January 6 with reckless driving and a license violation after he bumped another vehicle in the west city. Julia Farmer told police Mr. Jones was driving in a harassing and threatening manner about 6:00 on King Boulevard, and at one point tapped the rear of her vehicle when she halted for a stop sign. Deputy Erik Deloach gave chase after Mr. Jones' Pontiac sped by him, and arrested the dri- ver when he parked near his Quail Lane residence. Barry Bryant, no age listed, of Jacksonville was charged with dis- order!v intoxication after he was found staggering in the parking lot of the Travelodge in Macclenny the evening of January 3. Police had warned Mr. Bryant earlier that evening to remain in his room. Deputy Mark Hall noted that the suspect was bleeding from several dozen small cuts when arrested. He was treated at county jail. THE BAKER COUNTY PRESS Thursday, January 12, 2005 Page Five Boyfriend's attack sent woman to ER A live-in boyfriend was arrested for domestic violence the after- noon of January 3, charged with inflicting injuries that sent his girl- friend to the emergency room at Fraser Memorial Hospital earlier that day. According to Sgt. Michael Crews of the sheriff's department, a tip was received that Randy Michaels, 30, had beaten Carolyn Brown, 20, at their residence in the Trail Ridge trailer park east of Macclenny. She told staff at the emergency 'room she had fallen into a door when she went there for treatment of bruises and abrasions to her, arms. Sgt. Crews caught up with the couple as they sat in a parked ve- hicle in the parking lot of Winn- Dixie that afternoon, and said Ms., Brown became hysterical when he questioned her away from. the boyfriend's presence. Because she- appeared fright- ened of the consequences 'of ex- plaining the bruises on- her body, and the fact that Mr. Michaels also refused to answer questions, the officer arrested the boyfriend for battery. Two days later, a 16-year-old female was arrested on the Baker High campus for verbal threats made during a lunch period to a 17-year-old pregnant student. Campus Deputy Tracie Benton said the accused was no .longer enrolled in school and should not have been on the campus.

The youthfull appearance of this slender, petite mother of a baby .11jiJghter is decei\ ing. Katie, as she is known by her friends. is mature for her 21 years and her determination to help guide young women toward 'making smart chliiccs about their life's direction' -Iouild typically come from some- one much older. "We moved around a lot when I was growing up," says Katie, who has only lived in Macclenny a short while. "So-metines the neighborhoods were really tough. We lived in places that weren't very quiet, with a lot of loud planes always flying overhead. There was a lot of crime, At a l ery young age I had already seen a dead body and had had a gun pulled on me. Those were things a child shouldn't have to see." Katie is one of a family of many children, but she and her mother lived apart from the family. ShL. has never met her father adid until recently, didn't know much about her other siblings. Growing up in those circumstances taught her the \ alue of positive rqle mod- els and the negati e impact of not having any. "I learned the hard'way," says the diminutive Katie. "I. didn't really have anyone to guide me or help me understanJ my options. It's so important fi..r young women to hai.c someone to talk to, to have the freedom to ask questions about the issues they don't understand and to see. more than one way to solve problems. Just having some- one to talk to is vital." And that's where the Teen Sis- terhood Program comes into play. Whn the program was started, Director Anna Lewis, along with 0o!, r members of the Baker, Family YMCA ,taifft. thought K:time would be a perfect fit as one of the leaders. "I was so flattered when they approached me about it," remem- bers Ktie, who was x\orkini with the YMCA Child Watch program, a position she still holds. "They all knew my background and how my determination to learn from my mistakes and turn my less-than- wonderful childhood toward a paiili' e direction for my future. And I just like to help people, too, especially young girls." The goal of the Teen Sisterhood Program is to providestructured, fun, 'lllicational and self-ex.\plorin _' sessions for female teens. It pro- motes character development, self- determination, -social development and positive life choices. Strong, positive female role models are chli.en to lead the sessions with The programs are geared toward girls ages 10 -16. The aver- Teen Sisterhood leader, Katie Hall (center) sits with Apryl Beck, left andAshlee Martin, during one of the program meetings in the YMCA teen center. I w ll i LKnni.in age age in the group is 12. Programs deal with a variety of subjects such as coping with peer pressure and stress, the importance of physical fitness, solutions for anger mantagemcent, developlient of self-estcctm. drug dwairencs -,and prevention. The girls will soon be given journals to write in about the top- ics they discuss and what 'they learn from the sessions. Katie thinks an open torum for discussion is very important and tries to make time for each girl's. personal concerns. "I also give the girls a chance to talk about whatever is on their minds. The\ -,ometimes don't feel comfortable talking with their par-, ents. Man\ arc comfortable talking to an adult, but they don't have Fleeinigman found hiding in a bedroom Two sheriff's investigators had to enter a residence in west Mac- clenny to track down a suspect who fled from them the evening of" January 4. Anthony Hart, 27, no address indicated, was charged with dri- ving on a suspended license and the officers learned he is wanted on warrants from Duval and Mar- ion counties for that offense and for credit card fraud. Investigators David Bryant and Scott) Rhoden were in the neigh- borhood off Rock Ct. when they spotted Mr. Hart seated in his vehicle parked between two trail- ers. He sped off and soon slammed on his brakes, jumped out and ran into another nearby residence. The occupant allowed the investigators inside and they found Mr. Hart hiding in a bedroom. He was also ticketed for the suspended license and for careless driving. Early the morning of January 6, James Bullaid, 26. o-,f MNacclennN was arrested on a Columbia Contn- ty warrant charging him with vio- lating probation.

"You can talk about personal things and not woi r' thait eer one will lea\ CI and start telling people about wha you said " The Teen Sisterhood program also provides participants with 'a recommended reading list. The girls read books such as Wise Girl.: I'hat I've learned about life, love and loss by Sheryl Berk and The Girl's book of, Wisdom: Empowering., Inpira-' tional quotes' from o\'er 400 Fabulous Females by Catherine Dee. "The girls need,to know that even famous people \ ho seen to have it all can have their lives come crashing down around them. \Ve all mu-st be responsible for our behavior and \\e can learn from our mistakes," Katie said. , For more information or to par- ticipate in the Teen Sisterhood Program contIict Katie Hall it the Baker Count YNMCA (5)-tI719).

When the Wildcats were losing five of their .first six games coach Charles Ruise liked what he saw on the court in practice, in games, somewhere. He said his team needed just a little tinkering, and it would be al-. right. Well, it looks like he may have been right. The Cats beat down their last two opponents on the way to a five-game winning streak that has evened their record at 7,7 (3-3 in district). Against Middleburg Tuesday- night, the Cats rode a 51-20 edge in the second and third quarters to" defeat the Broncos 79-44 at the, Baker County High School gym. The game's defining moment, however, was when the Cats hada the ball on offense in front of their bench. Up 77-41 w% ith less than two minutes to go, there was Ruise, leaning out over the side- BCMS gals win twice; boys'team, still winless BY LAURA BETH BRINER Press Sports The middle school basketball action got back underway with three games in the past week against familiar opposition. .. "We're getting into the second half of the season, and we've seen most of the teams before," said Shawn Mahon, head coach of the boys' team. .... The girls won. two of three games while the boys dropped each of theirs. Their records now stand at 4-6 and 0-10 respectively. On January 5, the Bobcats trav- eled to take on Callahan. The girls won 30-20. Leading scorers for the Cats were Destin) de la Pena with 12; Amber Antoine with eight, Chelsey Ruise with six and both, Mcagan Osteen and Kierra Lee, with two each. The boys lost 45-14 \with only three players scoring. DeontaN Farmer had 11, Cason Lowery had two and Will Miller one. "I his was the-first game back after Chiistinas break. We had not had a good week of practice and it showed," Mahon said. The Cats traveled January 6 to Fernandina Beach to face the Pi- rates for a second time this sea- son. The results were much the same as the first meeting with Baker coming away with losses. The girls lost 53-10 with three ladies scoring. Antoine led with line barking non-stop instructions to his players. A little tinkering takes a lot of work, The Cats had four players in double figures Gary Dugger scored 15 points, Justin Gaskins 12, Nate Strachan and Andrew Bowman each had 10. Two days earlier, the Cats laid it on Hilliard 71-43, leading by 17 at the half and cruising to.the % in at home. Strachan had 17, Gaskins 11 and Dontay Johnson 10. It's a wonder the Cats had the energy to take it to the Flashes be- cause the previous night they went to overtime at Ridgeview before prevailing 88-85. The game was tight through- out, with the Cats up by one at the half, but down by four entering the fourth quarter., Tied at 78 at the end of regula- tion. they outscored Ridge\ iew 10-7 in the extra period. Five Cats scored in double fig- ures Gaskins had 20, Strachan' 17, Carlos Holton 16, Dontay- Johnson 11 and Dustin Comb, 1,0. Their ne\t game i', January 12 at home against Santa Fe.

Pictured below is the evaluation sheet used to grade the girls. Softball tryouts are a numbers game BY MICHAEL RINKER Press Sports The Wildcats girls. -basketball team played Union County even through three quarters January 9, but .were unable to answer a fourth quarter run by the host Tigers. Still, the game along with a January 3 loss at Santa Fe - serves as an indication of how far the young Cats have come be- cause earlier in the season, they lost big to both schools in games .played at BCHS. Coach Franklin Griffis said the Union County game offered a glimpse of how good his team can be. Junior Brittany Hinson hit five three-pointers on the way to 23 points. Freshman Brittany Ruise scored 12. Griffis said the pair also played tight defense, getting steals up top and turning them into fast-break points. Caitlin Griffis. a sophomore, pulled down 15 rebounds despite sitting out most of the second quarter because of foul trouble. The Cats jumped out to a 19- 10 first quarter lead, then led by two entering the fourth quarter. Union County, 'however, outscored Baker by ten to take a 60-52 win. In November the Cats lost by 15 at home to the Tigers. "We'd been about a second slow [reacting to loose balls, re- bounds, openings in the defense] but we played pretty good all around last night," coach Griffis said, "Our two weaknesses have been rebounding and turnovers," the coach said. "We've about dou- bled our rebounds and cut the,. turnovers in half... but there are still too many." Sandwiched between the Santa Fe and Union County losses, the Cats beat Middleburg 53-26 but lost to Fernandina Beach 49-33. Even that loss, however, had a sil- ver lining as the Cats were down big at halftime but hung tough, outscoring the Pirates 15-5 in the fourth quarter. The Cats performance this sea- son is a 18(1-degree turnaround from last year's winless team. The losing took !its toll as the season wore on. Now, Griffis said, "They're go-- ing in with the attitude, 'We're guing to win tonight.'" That bodes well for the rest of this season as well as the next, and the one after that. Griffis has just two seniors and one junior. The rest are sopho- mores and a pair of freshman. . The Cats' record stands at 3-10 as they travel to Ridgeview Janu- ary 12. After a game January 16 at Baldwin, they return home for Se- nior Night against Suwannee County on January 19. BY MICHAEL RINKER Press Sports The Baker County High School softball team began tryouts Janu- ary 9, with Coach Cheryl Nunn anticipating a young but potential- ly good squad. "I'm excited, I saw some good things," she said. "We're young and we have some things to work on, but'this team has the heart to put in the work." About 20 girls showed up the first day, with about five more coming the second, when basket- ball players had the day off prac- tice. If the number of girls stays at 25, the Wildcats will field varsity and junior varsity teams, other- wise it's just varsity. The squad will have 14 players and two alter-' nates. To determine who those 16 are, or if there are two teams - which girls make varsity, Nunn uses a mathein.tic.l rating system during tryouts. Dale Joh nson and David Crum- mey joined Nunn in grading the first day of tryouts, which was fo- cused on defense. Without discussing their opin- ions with each other, they grade all the girls on a variety of defen- sive skills-, including fielding ground balls, fly balls and throw- ing. They consider mechanics, quickness, ball reaction and accu- racy. Girls also can earn points based on how fast they throw the ball. Each gets three chances on the radar gun. On the second day, Nunn will put the candidates through offen- sive drills, judging them on the mechanics of hitting and bunting, and how well they make contact. Coaches Chris Armoreda and Franklin Griffis also rate the girls' performance. Again, the girls will be able to add points based on their speed, although on offense they do it with their legs not their arms - each is timed running from home to first. Finally, the girls get points based on their grade-point aver- age. Despite the number of judges, the scores are remarkably consis- tent, Nunn said. "It always happens that the coaches come up with almost ex- actly the same scores." Although the scores determine who makes the team, they do nol decide who starts or who plays where. Those are coaching deci- sicns that can change often throughout the season, Players are allowed to see their own scores, but no one else's. Nunn said she once cut a player who's parent asked why. The coach simply showed her the numbers. i ' .*.* , .i .,..' :v THE BAKER COUNTY PRESS Thursday.
