LCPS Teacher of the Year
Teaching is more than high test
scores; it is also enriching lives.
A heart of compassion and belief
can be the very thing that causes
a student to "make it." Quality
schools are the result of quality
teachers going above and beyond
the call of duty. These three state
ments describe those teachers
chosen as teachers of the year in
their respective teaching assign
ments by their colleagues. Lee
County Primary School is proud
to announce the Teachers of the
Year for this school term. Top pic

Warriors,
ended as B. Hoffman threw out
the runner trying to advance to 3rd
to end the inning.
The Warriors put 5 more runs on
the board in the bottom of the 6th,
which included a perfect suicide
squeeze bunt by Gamble. Al
though trailing 13- 7, TDS did not
go quietly in the top of the 7th in
ning. After scraping three runs off
pitcher T. Hoffman, Brandon
Fowler came in relief with one out
and the tying run at the plate.
Fowler struck out the next TDS
batter for out number 2. Fowler
then forced a rundown after a
pickoff move to get the third out
and preserve the victory for the
Warriors, 13-10.
CHAMPIONSHIP GAME
The Warriors advanced to the
championship game on Sunday af
ternoon in a virtual replay of
Saturday's game with
Thomasville. This game showed
just how exciting tournament
baseball can be. Thomasville got
on the board first with one ran in
the first inning off starter Cam
Ellis. The Warriors tied the game
in the top of the 2nd. After draw
ing a base on balls, Jeffrey
Burdette scored on Corey Nichols
single to left center. T'ville broke
the tie in the bottom of the 3rd
getting two runs across to make
the score 3-1 and extended the
lead to 4-1 with another run in the
bottom of the 4th inning.
The Warriors struggled back in
the top of the 5th inning. With one
out, Brandon Fowler reached on
an error by the T'ville third
baseman. After stealing 2nd,
Fowler advanced to 3rd on Tim
From Page 2B
McCrary's ground out. Terrell
Hoffman singled. Zack Slaughter
then singled in Fowler. Alan
MacDonald brought in Hoffman
and Slaughter with a single to left
field to tie the game at 4-4. The
Warriors took the lead 5-4 in the
top of the 6th on singles by
Fowler, McCrary and T. Hoffman.
Thomasville wasn't to be outdone.
With two outs, T'ville got a man
on with a walk. As the T'ville base
runner attempted to steal second
to get into scoring position, the
throw to second was high and
wide and went into center field
allowing him to come all the way
around and score to tie the game
at 5-5.
Neither team could get a run
across in the 7th inning so the
game headed into extra innings.
McCrary reached first on a base
on balls in the top of the 8th in
ning with two outs but was left on
base. After a lead off walk and an
infield error, T'ville had runners on
1st and 2nd with no outs. T'ville
tried to get things going with a hit
and run play. The T'ville batter hit
a hard shot to third baseman Josh
Oliver who scooped it up, stepped
on third and threw across the in
field to Ellis to get the runner at
first for a 6-3 double play.
Thomasville's Tyler Newberry, the
tournament MVP, ended the game
with a hard single right back
through the middle to score the
runner from second base. Final
score: T'ville 6, Warriors 5.
Tournament Notes: Jeffrey
Burdette won 3 games with a 1.75
ERA. Cam Ellis recorded 14 K's
in 9 innings pitched. Terrell
