The Kenneth W. Wright Jr.
Scholarship Memorial Golf
Tournament was played May 18
at Winston Lake Golf Course.
The rain-delayed event chased
some of the golfers away, but a
ft sizable field stuck it out and
played anyway. The good Lord
came through and mid-morning
the sun was beginning to shine.
The tournament had two
divisions. Here are the results:
? A Division: first place -
the team of Robert "Heavy"
Bethea, Lester "Fats" Carpen
ter, Chris Ingram and Darlene
Warren (54); second place - P.
Koontz, J. Koontz, P. Koontz
and B. Gough (61); third'jSlace -
Don "Hound" Adams, T. Far
row, Amos Lewis and Harry
"Dirty Harry" Transou (61);
fourth place - Ted Duckett,
Floyd Green, Leonard "L'il
Jack" Jackson and Joe Johnson
62).
? B Division: first place -
James Blackburn. Don Davis,
Twanda Staley and Charles
Stevens (63); second place -
Lewis Gibbs, Antoine Johnson,
William Patton and Bill Valen
tine (63); third place - Matt
Bennett. Jimmie Blalock. Chris
Lynch and Kevin Marion (65);
fourth place - John Adamson.
Charles Johnson, Greg Robert
son and Kenneth Wright Sr.
(66).
? Closest ot the pin on hole
2 went to John Adamson. Lester
"Fats" Carpenter was closest to
the pin on hole 4. Joe Johnson
won the closest to the pin on
hole 12, while Slim Gibbs took
the closest to the pin honors on
hole 16. Jay Koontz had the
longest drive on hole 18.
If you were scheduled to
play in the tournament and the
rain scared you off. you most
certainly missed a festive time
for this worthwhile scholarship
program. Even Bishop Joseph
Lowery of St. Matthews Church
was seen on the course, provid
ing refreshments and cheering
the golfers on. The bishop has
become a mainstay at the annu
al tournament with his encour
agement and infectious smile.
He's a man we should always
take the time to warmly greet
and attentively listen to.

performers. Atwood finished
the season with a .500 batting
average.
"Those guys really came
through for us at the plate."
Anderson said.
But they weren't the only
ones. Austin Smith also played
well throughout the season, as
did pitchers Patrick Johnson.
Steven Peters and Dave Fiori.
I
Peters, a freshman, threw
the team's only no-hitter, blank
ing East Davidson in a key non
conference victory. Freshman
Dusty Shaw also logged consid
erable playing time and
impressed when he got his
chance on the mound.
The Titans also had several
clutch conference victories.
None was more dramatic than
the team's 8-7 come-from
behind victory over South
Iredell.
West Forsyth trailed South
Iredell 7-6 with two outs and no
one on in the bottom of the sev
enth inning. Down to his last
strike, Bowles blasted a solo
homer to tie the game at 7-7.
P.J. Walsh, the next batter, then
stepped up and drilled a shot,
giving the Titans back-to-back
homers and an 8-7 victory.
The experience many of the
10 sophomores on the junior
varsity team gained helped earn
them spots on the varsity team
for the playoffs. Atwood,
Bowles and Douglas were all
called up to join the Titans var
sity team (23-2) as it began its
quest in the state 4-A playoffs
this week.
"We were a very sopho
more-heavy team," Anderson
said. "Those guys were with us
for two years and got a lot of
experience, and now we're
looking for them to provide
depth on the varsity."
Mount Tabor
from paBl
with the weather conditions.
The temperature hovered
around the 65-70 degree mark
with a 15-20 mile-an-hour
head wind.
"What J-Mee did was pret
ty amazing considering the
headwind," Esposito said. "I
think we would have really
had some great times if we
didn't have that wind."
It was Loyd's final per
formance at Mount Tabor, and
Esposito said Loyd has been
the glue that has kept his team
on top.
"Mike might be fhe best
track guy to come out of Win
ston-Salem," Esposito saido
"He's bright, he loves, track
and has an unbelievable com
mitment. Some guys have had
the physical talent that he has,
-O
but none of them have worked
harder to accomplish their
goals.
"He's really disciplined,
and that has had a big influ
ence on the young runners like
J-Mee and Jerrod. He tells
them like it is. Then he goes
out and backs it up."
"He really works at it,"
Esposito added. "He studies
hurdling and sprinting. He
knows more about it than most
coaches."
Loyd has big aspirations,
according to Esposito. Head
ing off to Florida to run track
in the Southeastern Confer
ence will be a huge step up.
"They're loaded down
there," Esposito said. "They're
the best in the country, but
that's where he wants to go.
He wants to be a world-class
runner, and I wouldn't rule that
out. He aspires to that level."
Glenn
from page BI
In their 3-2 loss to Northeast
Guilford, Glenn stranded run
ners throughout the game and
could never come through with
the key hit. That wa^ really the
first time that has happened to
the Bobcats all season, and
Ijames said he hopes it is the
last.
"We had a couple of very
good games last week," he said.
"We got our offense cranked up,
and it was good for us to get
some of our frustration out. We
left a lot of runners on base
against Northeast, and that's
something we haven't been
doing."
Johnson, a senior, who also
is among the team's top batters,
will be asked to carry the load in
a crucial game once again. If
Johnson can keep his winning
streak alive, Ijames will turn the
c pitching duties over to Brian
Marion in their second outing of
the post-season. Marion has
posted a 7-2 mark for the Bob
cats this season.
