We’re looking at placing within the top 65 runners. That’s our goal for this year. We’re working to get further up that pole. If we can rank in the top 10, that would be super for us.” The Lady Eagles aren’t the only group of runners mak ing the Carrollton trip from Northside.

According to a release, the Power to the Wheels Dyno Tour is a competition that allows car enthusiasts to compete on a dyno that mea sures their vehicle’s horse power and torque. The tour Input sought on dove season Special to the Journal In response to recent public comment regarding Georgia’s dove hunting sea son structure, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Wildlife Resources Division has created a con venient online dove season questionnaire, available at www.gohuntgeorgia.com. The purpose of the question naire is to provide hunters an opportunity to share their opinions on certain aspects of Georgia’s current dove hunt ing season schedule. Doves are regulated under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. Under this authority, states must adhere to the USFWS framework which provides for an opening date no earlier than Sept. 1, a closing date no later than Jan. 15, no more than three seasons and a total of no more than 70 days. Georgia’s current season conforms to this framework. However, considering the recent feed back regarding the desire for more late-season hunting opportunity (i.e. additional days in January), WRD is assessing the possibility of adjusting the current season structure to accommodate the public input. Upon assessment of pub lic input, WRD will evalu ate potential season alterna tives and present these to the public through a series of public meetings in January 2008. Based on those meet ing responses, WRD may or may not propose a regula tion change to the Board of Natural Resources. The board will review any submit bettered host Jones County by 11 for second place, 94 to 105. “They really shocked me,” said Byrd. “They went out there with the heart and the guts and determination. They decided they were going to put their best foot forward, and they did it. I’m really impressed with them. They made my day.” Adrian Delestre of Northside placed fifth overall at 18:03 (winning time was 16:45). Four other Eagles came in at under 20 minutes: Michael Gonzales (11th), Stedman Grant (22nd), Josh Anderson (27th) and Kyle Dzwonkwonski (29th). In the past, Byrd said only one current member of her boys team has run at the state level. “It’ll be like a shocker,” she said about the new experi ence the runners have today. “To see all those top run ners. I have a lot of seniors, so with the young guys com ing back this will give them a taste and they will do bet ter next year.” Next year and years after that are looking better for Northside in cross country. Byrd said it’s a challenge to get freshmen to participate because they aren’t sure what cross country running is all about or they are leery of running for three miles. “Everybody will hear about the region champion ship and region runner-up,” said Byrd. “They will want to be part of that champion ship. That’ll be a plus.” The success really start ed in the 2006 season with the Northside girls winning the county championships. But the sport is enjoying a big boon this year because Warner Robins High had visited more than 10 events in cities across the U.S. After more than 764 dyno runs on a DynoJet 248 C - a machine that measures the vehicle’s horsepower - the DynoMax Top Ten Qualifiers advanced to last week’s Championship Shootout in Las Vegas. Anderson was one of just 10 car enthusiasts across the nation who qualified to com pete for part of the $40,000 prize purse at the world renowned 2007 Specialty Equipment Manufacturer’s Association Show.
