CFR delivering department book to librariesDISPATCH STAFF REPORT

Columbus Fire & Rescue is do-nating copies of its new book to lo-cal schools and libraries.

CFR public relations and ed-ucation officer Anthony Colom said he stopped Monday at the Co-lumbus-Lowndes Public Library and the six Columbus Municipal School District elementary school libraries to deliver the newly-pub-lished photo book, “Columbus Fire

and Rescue.”Colom said the 44-page book

features training photos and offers a glimpse at the various roles the department fills and how officers prepare for them.

“Kids really get a kick out of coming to the station, seeing what we’re doing and seeing the trucks,” he said. “It’s something for them to enjoy looking for.”

Colom said the books could also

be useful in the recruitment of new firefighters, as it gives interested people a way to see what the de-partment does.

Authors of kid’s books seek repeal of North Carolina law

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Nearly 270 authors and illustrators of children’s books have signed a let-ter calling on North Car-olina to repeal a new law preventing specific an-ti-discrimination rules for LGBT people for public accommodations and re-stroom use.

The letter, which was posted on the School Li-brary Journal website, said the 269 signees are “disappointed and angered by the reprehensible legis-lation” signed into law by Gov. Pat McCrory. They called for repeal of what they called a “hateful piece of legislation.”

“As even the youngest among you recognize, a law that promotes, en-ables, or encourages dis-crimination of any kind is

wrong,” the letter said.“Know that in time, and

with hard work, hope will triumph over fear. Know that acceptance will pre-vail over intolerance,” the letter continued. “Know that respect -—for all our differences — will always unite us.”

Among the names on the list are Rick Riordan, author of “Percy Jackson;” Jeff Kinney, who wrote “Diary of a Wimpy Kid,” and Veronica Roth, author of “Divergent.” All three were made into movies.

The group also said it would have to consid-er participation in con-ferences and festivals in North Carolina while the law is in effect.

“We cannot and will not support a state gov-ernment that promotes discrimination,” the letter said.

‘Know that in time, and with hard work, hope will triumph over fear.’

Cruz aims to extend Trump’s bad week with Wisconsin win BY NANCY BENACThe Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Ted Cruz aims to use Wiscon-sin’s presidential primary to extend Donald Trump’s recent rough stretch on the campaign trail. Bernie Sanders would like to administer some tough medicine of his own to Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton in the state. At the end of the night, the two parties’ front-runners still will be the two parties’ front-runners — but Wisconsin could well adjust the height of their hurdles to clinching the nomination.

A look at what to watch for in today’s primaries in Wisconsin:

The timelinePolls across the state close at 9 p.m. EDT. The state

historically has been fairly quick to release its vote count. Milwaukee is generally the exception to that rule, meaning that close races frequently come down to the size and direction of the vote count there.

Wisconsin whereaboutsRepublicans will award all 18 delegates to their

statewide winner, and three more to the winners in each of the state’s eight congressional districts. Check out who picks up pockets of delegates and where: Cruz is aiming to clean up in Milwaukee, where the Repub-lican base is concentrated and where Trump has been hammered by conservative talk radio; John Kasich has been focusing on Madison; Trump is expected to do well in the north. On the Democratic side, with 86 delegates proportionally at stake on Tuesday, look for Sanders to show strength in Madison, a liberal college town. Clinton needs to do well with the diverse, urban voters of Milwaukee. That could leave the Democratic race to be decided elsewhere, so watch how the candi-dates do along the Minnesota border and in the Green Bay area.

Trump’s hurdleHeading into the Wisconsin vote, Trump had won

47 percent of all delegates awarded so far, and he need-ed to win 55 percent of the remaining delegates to claim the nomination before the primary season ends.

Size up how those percentages shift by end of the night to get a better idea of the odds of a contested Repub-lican convention. With Cruz showing strength in Wis-consin, Trump could well have an even narrower path to clinching the nomination before the July convention.

Sanders’ struggleThe delegate math is far more difficult for Sanders,

even if he pulls out a win in Wisconsin, where he led in pre-primary polls. Heading into Tuesday’s primary, Sanders needed to win 67 percent of the remaining Democratic delegates and uncommitted superdele-gates through June to be able to clinch the Democratic nomination. So far he’s won 37 percent.

Cruz’s courseThe Texas senator insists he still has a “clear path”

to winning the 1,237 delegates needed to claim the Republican nomination. But even a Wisconsin win wouldn’t do much to alter his daunting task. Heading into the Wisconsin primary, Trump had 737 delegates and Cruz 475. Expect Cruz to look past the delegate numbers and focus on Trump’s recent policy stumbles. “The last two weeks Donald Trump has gotten his rear end whipped, over and over and over again,” Cruz said on the eve of Wisconsin’s vote.

Clinton’s soft spotsClinton’s lead in the Democratic delegate count

is commanding, but Wisconsin exit polls will show whether she’s making progress winning over more younger and white working-class voters, soft spots so far for her campaign. Both are important segments of the Democratic coalition that she’ll need to energize for a strong general election showing.

Kasich’s standWatch how the Ohio governor explains his insis-

tence on hanging in there when he entered Wiscon-sin with just 143 delegates. Kasich’s been sketching a scenario in which the party turns to him at a contested convention, and says it’s a sign of his growing strength that his opponents are “starting to trash me.” As for Trump’s call for him to drop out, Kasich says that’s nothing more than whining.

Blue Mountain launches enrollment planPlan involves adding tennis team, beginning newspaperFROM OFFICE OF PUBLIC RELATIONS

BLUE MOUNTAIN -- The

Board of Trustees of Blue Moun-tain College unanimously ap-proved the conceptual framework for a seven-year strategic enroll-ment plan entitled “GROW BMC!”

The plan involves three stra-tegic initiatives: a review of all academic programs, expansion of athletic teams and expansion

of extracurricular activities. These goals are designed to expand the college’s size and quality of aca-demic offerings and student activ-ities.

“It is exciting to see the op-portunities to grow BMC when most private, faith-based colleges are dealing with declining enroll-ments,” Linda Gholston, chair of the BMC Board of Trustees, said.

“President Barbara McMillin

and her leader-ship team have done intensive work to devel-op a plan for the growth and ex-pansion of Blue Mountain College,” she said.

Over the next three years BMC will add a variety of new athletic teams including varsity squads in baseball, softball, and

women’s basketball, and varsity teams in tennis, bowling, archery, and possibly soccer and track and field.

Extra- and co-curricular activi-ties will include the establishment of a band, a newspaper staff, and a yearbook staff. A host of other options are under consideration.

“We are excited about these new options, which we believe will provide students access to the type of Christ-centered education-al experience that Blue Mountain College offers,” President McMil-

lin said.The plan prioritizes pay raises

for faculty and staff, completion of a sports complex and renovations to Tyler Gymnasium.

Other aspects of the plan in-clude the construction of a math/science building, a library annex, a band hall, residential housing, and renovations to existing build-ings.

The achievement of the $12 million “GROW BMC!” plan will coincide with the College’s 150th anniversary in 2023.

Woman accused of stealing patient’s medication

THE ASSOCIATED PRES

TUPELO — A Tupelo woman is facing charges after being accused of stealing prescription drugs from a nursing

home patient.Attorney General Jim

Hood said in a statement that 37-year-old Angela Sweat turned herself in to authorities Friday.

A Lee County grand

jury indicted Sweat on multiple charges includ-ing obtaining possession of a legal drug by larceny, embezzlement, misrepre-sentation, fraud, forgery, deception or subterfuge.

Authorities say Sweat was employed as a resi-dent assistant at a facility

in Tupelo. The indictment says Sweat obtained a controlled substance, Norco, that was pre-scribed to and purchased for a patient at the facility.

Sweat has posted bond. It isn’t immedi-ately clear if she has an attorney.

Hancock Fabrics stores to close by July 31 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TUPELO — The liqui-dation of Hancock Fabrics is expected to be complet-ed by July 31. That’s ac-cording to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday.

Sheriff Ricky Adam tells The Sun Herald in-vestigators were waiting to receive a report from an autopsy performed Monday at the Mississippi Forensics Laboratory in Jackson.

Coroner Jim Faulk said the autopsy was complet-ed Monday morning but the report itself had not been compiled later Mon-day. He said the child’s re-mains were being taken to a funeral home.

Officials said it’s likely the report will be ready Tuesday.

Sheriff’s Cmdr. Glenn Grannan said Sunday it appears the child suffered traumatic head injuries Thursday.

15-month-old’s death is still under investigation as homicide

Plymouth Bluff: The “other” PilgrimageEach spring, Columbus cel-

ebrates its Spring Pilgrimage, an opportunity to reflect on the city’s past, primarily through tours of the city’s oldest homes and the history they represent.

This year’s Pilgrimage ends on Sunday, but for those whose interest in the history of our community cannot be confined to a select bloc of days on the calender, there is another opportunity to study the area’s history — a history that predates even the oldest of homes and structures and, in fact, gives a glimpse of the area long before the first white

settlers arrived on the North American continent.

The story of Columbus begins just west of the city at a place called Plymouth Bluff on the banks of the Tombigbee River.

Today, it is known as the Plymouth Bluff Environment Center, a 190-acre facility operated by Mississippi University for Women. Under MUW’s care, the center is host to a wide variety of events and programs, including lectures, retreats, training/education programs, conferences and even wedding/family reunions.

Now that spring has arrived, we commend to your attention one specific attrac-tion at Plymouth Bluff that is particularly appealing — the center’s two nature trails.

Although both trails are open year-round, there is no better time to walk these trails than in spring, where many of the countless varieties of plants and trees are coming into bloom.

We are particularly en-chanted with the “River Trail” which not only follows the course of the river, but turns back through a pair of cypress

sloughs. It is, in a very real sense, a walk through two distinctly different ecosystems co-existing side-by-side.

It takes less than an hour to walk the trail – longer if you stop to contemplate the bloom-ing buckeyes (yellow and red) or the “paw-paw patch” or the slough covered in bright green duckweed.

The trail is marked by plaques that alert visitors to some of the distinct plant and animal life that may be encountered along the way. It also features benches where trail walkers can sit and ob-

serve the native beauty of our natural world, whether it is a view of the river or the pristine beauty of the sloughs.

Plymouth Bluff is a treasure year-round, of course, but in the spring, it puts on its finery. There under the forest canopy with the cool breezes of spring, we get a glimpse into our an-cient past and the beauty of the natural world, its remarkable diversity and its resilient defi-ance of the “modern world.”

As one Pilgrimage winds to its end, Plymouth Bluff re-minds us that another Pilgrim-age awaits us.

Mississippi’s sugar daddy is Uncle SamBY PAUL HAMPTONThe Biloxi Sun-Herald

It was the sort of email the Sun Herald has grown accustomed to receiving during Thad Cochran’s decades in the Senate.

The senator on Friday was announcing another multimil-lion-dollar package of federal spending for the state.

In this case, it was $13.3 million in federal aid to help 29 coun-ties, Harrison among them, recover from storms and floods.

“Tornadoes, flooding and other inclement weather have been persistent challenges for Mississippi communities in recent years,” Cochran wrote. “I am pleased that the Department of Agriculture is making good use of this funding to help our state repair damaged infrastructure and speed up recovery.”

That’s one advantage of having the chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee in your corner.

And that’s one reason the state is the most dependent of all states on federal money.

The personal finance website WalletHub.com last week ranked Mississippi No. 1 in government dependency and No. 50 in gross domestic product. It put Mississippi in the high tax-es-high dependency group, ranking the state’s tax rate No. 38 (where 1 is best and 50 is worst).

It found a “median U.S. Household” (one with $53,889 in income, a home valued at $175,000 and a car valued at $23,070) paid $6,525 in state and local taxes.

WalletHub’s Fred L. Morrison, a law professor at the Univer-sity of Minnesota, was quick to note not all federal spending in a state subsidizes that state.

“Some expenditures are clearly national,” he wrote, citing national defense as spending that benefits the whole country.

That certainly applies to the Coast, home to Keesler Air Force Base in Biloxi, Ingalls Shipbuilding in Pascagoula, the Seabee and National Guard bases in Gulfport and Stennis Space Center in Hancock County.

“Sen. Cochran is proud of the contributions Mississippians provide to our national security and to globally significant research funded by the federal government,” Chris Gallegos, spokesman for the senator, said. “The senator works to support those activities, while also supporting state and local efforts to spur economic development and attract job opportunities to the state.”

According to the Mississippi Department of Finance and Administration, of the $21.8 billion appropriated for the current fiscal year, $9.5 billion came from the federal government.

Add to that the hundreds of millions received in the form of federal grants to cities and counties. What was touted as the biggest economic-development project in state history -- the restoration and expansion of the Port of Gulfport - - is being paid for by a $570 million federal grant. In all, Mississippi received $5.5 billion from the federal government for Hurricane Katrina recovery.

“In Biloxi,” said city spokesman Vincent Creel, “our annual operating budget is about $55 million, and is primarily funded by -- in order of money -- gaming, sales tax and property taxes. Our federal programs budget, which is primarily block grants, is about half a million dollars, but the huge infusion of federal mon-ey is our capital projects budget, which right now is $300 million with $275 million of that coming from the federal government.

“To put it into perspective, consider this. If you’re on Highway 90 stopped at the red light at the Biloxi Lighthouse, the beautiful $13 million Visitors Center north of the highway was built with federal money, as was the $5 million waterfront park next to it. The red light you’re stopped at was paid for with federal money, as was the highway you’re driving on, and a half-million dollars in federal money was used to restore the lighthouse, which, of course, overlooks the lighthouse pier, which also restored with federal money.

“North, south, east or west, you’re looking at the impact of federal money.”

But the state has turned down federal aid, too, most notably from the Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act. Critics suggest that decision cost the state billions and left its working poor less healthy.

And those federal dollars often have strings attached. The federal government has used transportation money to persuade states to follow its highway-safety policies. It also used grants to lead states to adopt its education policies.

Cochran’s office pointed out another perspective -- a set of rankings the Mississippi Development Authority touts to poten-tial employers and residents. It has two No. 1s for community college system (by WalletHub) and low cost of living (by CNBC). The MDA also points out the state’s competitive labor costs, low cost of doing business, incentive programs and cooperative government.

“While many parts of Mississippi must contend with econom-ic, educational and health challenges, Sen. Cochran believes public and private investment in our state makes a difference by providing greater access to employment, education and health care,” Gallegos said.

CAMPAIGN 2016

What Trump has wroughtAs Wisconsinites

head for the polls, our Beltway elites are almost giddy. For they foresee a Badger State bashing for Donald Trump, breaking his momentum toward the Republican nomina-tion.

Should the Don-ald fall short of the delegates needed to win on the first ballot, 1,237, there is growing certitude that he will be stopped. First by Ted Cruz; then, perhaps, by someone acceptable to the establishment, which always likes to have two of its own in the race.

But this city of self-delusion should realize there is no going back for America. For, what-ever his stumbles of the last two weeks, Trump has helped to unleash the mightiest force of the 21st century: nationalism.

Transnationalism and globalism are mori-bund.

First among the issues on which Trump has triumphed — “We will build the wall — and Mexico will pay for it!” — is border security.

Republican candidates who failed to parrot Trump on illegal immigration were among the first casualties.

For that is where America is, and that is where the West is.

Consider Europe. Four months ago, Ange-la Merkel was Time’s Person of the Year for throwing open the gates to the “huddled mass-es” of the Middle and Near East.

Merkel’s Germany is now leading the EU in amassing a huge bribe to the Turks to please take them back, and keep them away from the Greek islands that are now Islam’s Ellis Island into Europe.

Africa’s population will double to 2.5 billion by 2050. With 60 percent of Africans now under 25 years of age, millions will find their way to the Med to cross to the Old Continent where Europeans are aging, shrinking and dying. Look for gunboats in the Med.

If immigration is the first issue where Trump connected with the people, the second is trade.

Republicans are at last learning that trade deficits do matter, that free trade is not free. The cost comes in dead factories, lost jobs, dy-ing towns and the rising rage of an abandoned Middle America whose country this is and whose wages have stagnated for decades.

Economists who swoon over figures on con-sumption forget what America’s 19th-century meteoric rise to self-sufficiency teaches, and what all four presidents on Mount Rushmore understood.

Production comes before consumption. Who owns the orchard is more essential than who eats the apples. We have exported the eco-

nomic independence that Hamilton taught was indispensable to our political independence. We have forgotten what made us great.

China, Japan, Germany — the second, third and fourth largest economies on earth — all owe their prosperity to trade surpluses run for decades at the expense of the Americans.

A third casualty of Trumpism is the post-Cold War foreign policy consensus among liber-al interventionists and neoconservatives.

Trump subjects U.S. commitments to a cost-benefit analysis, as seen from the stand-point of cold national interest.

What do we get from continuing to carry the largest load of the defense of a rich Europe, against a Russia with one-fourth of Europe’s population?

How does Vladimir Putin, leader of a nation that in the last century lost its European and world empires and a third of its landmass, threaten us?

Why must we take the lead in confronting and containing Putin in Ukraine, Crimea and Georgia? No vital U.S. interest is imperiled there, and Russia’s ties there are older and deeper than ours to Puerto Rico.

Why is it the responsibility of the U.S. Pacif-ic Fleet to defend the claims of Hanoi, Manila, Kuala Lumpur and Brunei, to rocks, reefs and islets in the South China Sea — against the claims of China?

American hawks talk of facing down Beijing in the South and East China Seas while U.S. companies import so much in Chinese-made goods they are fully subsidizing Beijing’s mili-tary budget.

Does this make sense?Patriotism, preserving and protecting the

unique character of our nation and people, eco-nomic nationalism, America First, staying out of other nation’s wars — these are as much the propellants of Trumpism as is the decline of the American working and middle class.

Trump’s presence in the race has produced the largest turnout ever in the primaries of either party. He has won the most votes, most delegates, most states. Wisconsin aside, he will likely come to Cleveland in that position.

If, through rules changes, subterfuge and faithless delegates, party elites swindle him out of the nomination, do they think that the millions who came out to vote for Trump will go home and say: We lost it fair and square?

Do they think they can then go back to open borders, amnesty, a path to citizenship, the Trans-Pacific Partnership and nation building?

Whatever happens to Trump, the country has spoken. And if the establishment refuses to heed its voice, and returns to the policies the people have repudiated, it should take heed of John F. Kennedy’s warning:

“Those who make peaceful revolution im-possible, make violent revolution inevitable.”

GOP appeal to conservatives with health care, immigrant cuts BY ANDREW TAYLOR The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Trying to win over conservatives, House Re-publicans are sweetening their budget proposal by putting several programs on the chopping block, in-cluding President Barack Obama’s health care law and tax credits for chil-dren of immigrants living in the country illegally.

But cuts to programs like food stamps are on hold and a drive to cap medical malpractice awards has faltered before a GOP-controlled committee, though cuts to Medicaid and a popu-lar program that pro-vides health coverage to children have advanced through a panel respon-sible for federal health programs.

Still, it may not be enough. And if the party’s broader budget plan sinks, the effort may fade.

The strategy behind the work is to increase support for the budget, a nonbinding measure that sets a more than $1.1 trillion overall cap next fiscal year for the operating budgets of federal agencies. Beyond the appropriations cap, the measure calls for sweeping spending cuts to benefit programs like Medicaid, the health care law, and food stamps.

So far, the idea of the so-called “sidecar” spending cuts hasn’t swayed conservatives opposing the broader

budget outline over its endorsement of last year’s bipartisan budget pact between Obama and the GOP-controlled Congress.

The situation amounts to a black eye for House Republicans and their new leader, Speaker Paul Ryan. Just three years ago, House Republicans lashed out at a Democrat-ic-controlled Senate for failing to adopt a budget and forced through a temporary law that would have cut off the paychecks of lawmakers if they failed to pass a budget.

“When I grew up in Wisconsin, if you had a job and you did the work, then you got paid. If you didn’t do the work you didn’t get paid. It’s that simple,” Ryan said at the time. “All we’re saying is: ‘Congress, follow the law. Do your work. Budget.’ “

The “No Budget, No Pay” law has lapsed, however, and for the first time since taking over the House in 2011, Republicans are at risk of failing to do a budget. If the broader but nonbind-ing budget plan remains stalled, the sidecar idea is likely to get scrapped, several GOP aides said.

Republicans have never sought to actual-ly implement the most controversial cuts they’ve proposed, such as trans-forming Medicare into a voucher-like program for future retirees or sweeping cuts to Med-icaid health coverage for the poor, elderly and

disabled.Instead, when propos-

ing real, concrete spend-ing savings. Republicans have gone after many of the same targets time after time, opting for cuts that are politically easy for GOP lawmakers. And that’s the case now with the two committees that have already approved their share of the 10-year, $140 billion in cuts called for by House GOP leaders.

The tax-writing Ways and Means Committee and the Energy and Commerce panel have weighed in with cuts to a prevention fund estab-lished by the Affordable Care Act and a move to reclaim Obamacare sub-sidies from people whose income has unexpectedly increased. A temporary increase in the govern-ment’s contribution to a popular health care pro-gram for children from lower-income families would be repealed.

The tax panel also would require taxpayers claiming the refundable portion of the $1,000 child tax credit to claim it by filing their taxes with a Social Security number rather than an ID number commonly used by immi-grants working illegally, saving $20 billion over the coming decade.

But an effort to save $44 billion by putting restrictions on medical malpractice awards unraveled in the Judi-ciary Committee last month. The measure was estimated to generate

savings because doctors would be less likely to perform “defensive med-icine.”

The Judiciary mea-sure would have placed a $250,000 cap on non-economic damages and established new guide-lines for punitive damag-es. That drew opposition from some panel Republi-cans, even though similar legislation has passed in prior years.

“What this legislation does is goes and tells 15 states that since you do not have a limit on punitive damages, we are going to impose a limit on punitive damages in your state whether you like it or not,” said Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas, an op-ponent of the measure.

Meanwhile, the chair-man of the Agriculture Committee is delaying cuts to food stamps until the broader budget blue-print is passed.

“I’m going to wait until there’s a deal,” said Agriculture Com-mittee Chairman Mike Conaway, R-Texas. He

added that there was no reason to “create a furor and have an argument with a bunch of folks” if the effort is going nowhere.

The Agriculture panel has jurisdiction over food stamps and farm subsi-dies and while Conaway wouldn’t say, it’s likely he would seek cuts to food stamps. That would draw intense opposition from Democrats whose support he’ll want when writing a future farm bill.

Rep. Jeb Hensarling,

R-Texas, chairman of the Financial Services Com-mittee, has been silent about his plans, but he’s likely to opt to eliminate a provision from the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial sys-tem overhaul. That provi-sion provides the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. with a line of credit with the Treasury that it could tap to orderly liquidate non-banks whose failure might harm the financial system. The move could save about $20 billion over 10 years.

‘When I grew up in Wisconsin, if you had a job and you did the work, then you got paid. If you didn’t do the work you didn’t get paid. It’s that simple.’

DebrisContinued from Page 1A

“We had 16 chain-saws going at one point out there in the dark,” Burns said. “Our guys did a great job and we re-ally appreciate the help from those other agen-cies. It was some great teamwork, I thought.”

Burns asked the su-pervisors for permission to turn over the bulk of the debris removal from the storm to outside contractors.

“Right now, we’ve got a list of 16 roads that have debris along the side of the road and we’ll probably have a few more. Plus, there are multiple roads in the Lakeover subdivision,” Burns said. “I really think we need to bring somebody else in be-cause we are just getting started with our regular road work. If we have to stop and deal with the debris, it ’s going to put us way, way behind.”

Asked how much the debris removal would cost, Burns said it was hard to estimate.

Board President Har-ry Sanders said that if the county allocated no more than $50,000 for the clean-up, it would

not be required to go through the bidding process, which could delay debris removal for a month or more.

“It will probably cost more than $50,000,” Burns said.

Sanders said any extra debris removal could be removed by Burns’ crew later.

“By then, hopefully, there won’t be too much left and you’ll have been able to get caught up with your other work.”

Burns said he thought he could se-cure contractors with a week or so, at which time debris removal can start.

“We’re going to have to put a cut-off time on it, though,” Burns said. “Usually what happens is once debris is cleaned up, residents bring out more. So at some point, we have to cut that off.”

In other board busi-ness, supervisors grant-ed permission to Agri-

cel to have access to the former CalStar building so that it can assess the property before agree-ing to a lease arrange-ment. CalStar, which leased the building from the county, ended operations in October. Under the plan present-ed by Golden Triangle Development LINK CEO Joe Max Higgins, Agricel intends to lease the property on behalf of PACCAR, which will use the 100,000 -square-foot building as a ware-house. If the lease is approved, PACCAR will pick up the $30,000 monthly rent, retro-active to March 1. CalStar’s last payment on the lease was in Feb-ruary.

“You’re only losing a couple of weeks of the lease payments,” Hig-gins said.

Finally, the board awarded a contract for the county’s new horsepark’s off ice building to JEM Con-tracting of Macon. JEM was the low bidder on the project with a bid of $1,160,000.

side of the road.That, Barksdale says,

is a problem.“It really just amazes

me,” he said. Troy Lee, a driver

with Bulldog Towing in Starkville, also experi-ences issues with mo-torists not moving over. He said the issue is less common on Starkville’s side roads, but a major issue on the main arter-ies, such as Highways 12 and 182.

“It’s a very dangerous thing when you’re on the highway trying to hook up a vehicle and no one will move over,” Lee said. “We’ve got our caution lights on, our vests on and people are still more concerned with them-selves than your safety.”

Lee said the company puts out orange cones to give drivers advance warning at the site of certain wrecks, but even that doesn’t seem to help.

“As soon as they see the cones they move over and move right back over in that lane again like those cones weren’t even there,” he said. “It’s a terrible thing.”

Barksdale said: “If you have the opportunity to move over, move over. Not only am I married and have kids — we get up just like everybody else and go to work and

we want to be safe.”For Barksdale, the

problem is bad enough that he sometimes re-cords drivers passing by while he’s at a tow site. What he found out by do-ing it is that drivers who don’t move over are often distracted by things such as looking on the phone.

Rubberneckers can also cause problems. Barksdale said one wreck led to another on the highway one morn-ing about a week and a half ago because a driver slowed down to try to see what was happening.

“We know everybody is trying to slow down and we know people are trying to look and see who it is or what hap-pened,” Barksdale said. “The smartest thing is that you come up on (a wreck), slow down, be very cautious and just watch for everybody.”

So far, no Champions Towing drivers have been injured due to motorists not moving over. Barksdale said the side mirror of a passing car caught one the vest of one of his drivers a few years ago. However, the Velcro vest pulled apart, rather than dragging the driver along.

Still, he said the issue is a problem across the country, and he doesn’t

want towers to be injured because motorists won’t move over or aren’t pay-ing attention.

“I’m on these wrecker sites on Facebook and I see where tow drivers are getting hit and killed every day,” he said. “It’s because people are not paying attention.”

State lawMississippi Highway

Patrol Trooper 1st Class Greg Bell is no stranger to motorists who don’t move over.

“I’ve almost been struck by a vehicle that didn’t move over,” he said. “Once I made contact with the vehicle, I discovered the driver was impaired, which made sense for why he didn’t move over.”

A state law that took effect in 2007 requires that drivers who ap-proach a stationary emergency vehicle on a multi-lane highway move over to a non-adjacent if the highway has at least two lanes going in the same direction. Failing that, the law requires that drivers slow down and be prepared to stop.

The law also applies to recovery vehicles such as towing trucks, utility service vehicles, sanita-tion vehicles and highway maintenance vehicles.

Though the law has been in effect for nearly a decade, Bell said it’s something officers have to deal with regularly. Bell said MHP puts heavy emphasis on the move over law, especially because it’s a matter of officer safety.

“This is something that we are forced to enforce every single day,” Bell said. “Just for drivers being distracted when they’re coming by or looking at their phones.”

Violating the move over law is a misdemean-or and carries a fine of up to $250, or up to $1,000 if failure to follow the law leads to damage to a pro-tected vehicle or injury for a driver or passenger in the vehicle.

Bell said he thinks drivers should move over regardless of the type of vehicle on the side of the road.

“In my opinion, if there’s a vehicle on the side of the road that has any kind of a flashing lights — whether it’s amber, red, blue, green or what have you — you should yield if it’s safe to do so over to the opposite lane just to give them that little cushion of safety,” he said. “It doesn’t matter whether it’s a garbage truck or a law enforce-ment vehicle.”

CALEDONIA — Jantsen Glasgow and Zach O’Neil like to keep it simple.

While other players might twist themselves up in knots tweaking swings or deliver-ies, Glasgow and O’Neil have learned to embrace the tenets of hitting the ball the other way and throwing strikes.

Those strategies have al-lowed the Caledonia High School seniors to flourish and to help the Confederates build a five-game winning streak en-tering the home stretch of the season.

Last week, Glasgow went 5-for-13 with three runs scored and three RBIs in four games, while O’Neil pitched six strong innings in a victory against New Albany.

For their accomplishments, Glasgow and O’Neil are The Dispatch’s Prep Players of the Week.

O’Neil allowed only three hits in a 7-1 victory against New Albany on Saturday. He walked three and struck out 11. The win helped him improve to 3-2 with a 1.67 ERA. In 21 innings, he has allowed eight hits and walked 11. He has struck out 28. He said his cutter, which he learned last season, was

working well against New Al-bany and helped him have a good day. He didn’t know Sat-urday would turn out to be that good of a day until he took the mound.

“I started really good in the first inning and just kept go-ing,” O’Neil said. “I just tried to hit my spots. Wherever (catch-er Houston Mims) wanted it I tried to hit it.”

O’Neil said getting ahead has been a key to his success. He said his goal every game is to throw strikes and to let his defense work behind him so he isn’t throwing a lot of pitches. While that plan might sound

STARKVILLE — New coaches nor-mally don’t dwell on the past and aren’t pessimistic when they take over a pro-gram.

This season, the Ole Miss softball team is taking the opposite approach.

Under second-year coach Mike Smith, the Rebels are focused on earning their first trip to a NCAA regional. Ole Miss took a huge step to accomplishing that goal Monday night with a 9-5 victory against Missis-sippi State in a Southeastern Conference game at Nusz Park.

“We want to make a regional,” Ole Miss freshman shortstop Hailey Lunder-man said. “We know that has never been done at Ole Miss. We talk every day about making a regional. Coaches and players will always say that it’s one game at a time. This year’s team is a little different. We want to write history at Ole Miss. We know we have a team that can do that.”

Ole Miss took the season series from MSU for the second-straight season. When the latest Ratings Percentage In-dex (RPI) figures were released Monday, Ole Miss was at No. 33, while MSU was at No. 35.

While both teams have strong ré-sumés, which will only be bolstered by a killer stretch of conference games down the stretch, Ole Miss (28-10, 4-5 SEC) has seven more wins than MSU (21-15, 2-7).

WEST POINT — Ross Bell needs to show consis-tency.

The Mississippi State men’s golfer had a couple of good rounds in the last few tournaments, but he also had one round that took him out of contention.

Still, Bell is playing his best golf. He continued that trend Monday with a 1-under-par 71 and a 1-over 73 that left him tied for ninth after the first and second rounds of the Old Waverly Collegiate Cham-pionship at Old Waverly Golf Club.

“I think for him just maybe putting together a complete tournament is something he’s probably going to try to do,” MSU coach Clay Homan said. “He’s had good rounds in the last two or three tour-naments, but he’s had one bad round. I think being able to put together a com-plete tournament will be big for him.”

Senior Ben Wood shot two even-par rounds of 72 to join Bell in ninth. Soph-omore Johnny Newnham, who is playing as an indi-vidual, is tied for 14th at 1-over.

As a team, MSU is tied for seventh with a 18-over (594). The final round be-gins at 8:30 a.m. today.

In the last three tour-naments, Bell has carded two 81s and a 79 to nulli-fy two other great rounds and derail his momentum.

The redshirt freshman has been steady at MSU’s home course. He made two birdies and one bo-gey in the first round and made three birdies, two bogeys, and a double bo-gey in the second round. Bell’s performance has

STARKVILLE — Gavin Col-lins’ focus isn’t going to change.

The junior third baseman saw the Mississippi State baseball team lose two midweek games three weeks ago after a three-game sweep of then-No. 11 Ore-gon.

Since then, the Bulldogs haven’t lost a midweek game. But coming off a series victory against Ole Miss, No. 5 MSU has to stay focused at 6:30 tonight (SEC Network+) when it plays host to Tennessee-Martin at Dudy Noble Field.

Tonight’s game originally was scheduled to be a doubleheader, but it was changed to one game Sunday.

“We’re just going to play it one pitch at a time just like always,”

Collins said. “I think it’s the same level of focus.”

MSU (20-8-1) has won its first three Southeastern Conference series and is one game ahead of Alabama atop the Western Divi-sion with a 6-3 record.

Five of MSU’s losses — two to Florida Atlantic in the opening weekend, UCLA, Eastern Ken-tucky, and Oral Roberts — have come in non-conference games, but MSU has rebounded from the last two mid-week setbacks to beat Mississippi Valley State and Southern Mississippi.

MSU will start freshman left-hander Konnor Pilkington (1-0, 1.17 ERA) tonight against fresh-man left-hander Adam Rimmer (0-0, 7.16), who will make his first career start for the Skyhawks (7-21).

The Bulldogs have struggled on the mound in SEC finales with

three losses. Pilkington could be an option Sunday.

“I think for sure he throws an inning, but the question is if you want to use him for Sunday, it can only be an inning,” MSU coach John Cohen said. “You can’t ex-tend him in the middle of the week. He needs to pitch, and the question is how much?”

Dakota Hudson and Austin Sexton pitched complete games in the first two games against Ole Miss last weekend, but MSU used six pitchers in Game 3, which means tonight’s game could be all about getting pitchers some innings.

“Hopefully they’ll come out and just throw it in the strike zone. That’s the biggest issue in the middle of the week,” Cohen said. “When you throw strikes, it moves everything along, it engag-es the defense and it allow you to be successful.”

The game will help MSU pre-pare for its three-game series against No. 1 Florida this week-end. Collins and the Bulldogs know they can’t overlook Tennes-see-Martin, which is why they are upbeat about this week.

“Our confidence is through the roof,” Collins said.

n In other news, Hudson was named co-SEC Pitcher of the Week with Georgia’s Robert Ty-ler.

Hudson threw his first com-plete game and stuck out a ca-reer-high 11 Friday in a 3-1 vic-tory against Ole Miss. The junior

right-hander hasn’t allowed an earned run in 30 2/3 innings.

Hudson also was named one of nine Louisville Slugger National Players of the Week by Collegiate Baseball. He earned the same honor after his start against Van-derbilt.

n MSU is ranked in the top 10 of all six polls after going 3-1 last week.

The Bulldogs remained No. 5 in Baseball America’s poll, moved from No. 11 to No. 5 in D1Base-ball.com’s poll, moved from No. 12 to No. 10 in the USA Today Coaches poll, and is ranked No. 8 by Collegiate Baseball, Perfect Game, and the National Colle-giate Baseball Writers Associa-tion. MSU dropped from No. 7 to No. 8 in Collegiate Baseball’s poll.

BRIEFLYMississippi StateVivians named WBCA All-America honorable mention

STARKVILLE — A stellar sophomore season earned Mississippi State’s Victoria Vivians honorable mention All-America accolades from the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA).

The first-team All-SEC selection by the league coaches and The As-sociated Press earned the honor after finishing the 2015-16 season second in the SEC in scoring with 17.1 points per game.

Vivians had 616 points, the ninth-most in program history and second-highest total by a Bulldog sophomore. She became the first Bulldog since All-American Tan White in 2005 to eclipse 600 points in a season.

The Carthage product scored double figures 31 times this season, including 13 games with 20-plus points and a pair of 30-point outings.

Her standout season helped Vic Schaefer’s fourth Bulldog squad to a 28-8 record, the most wins in school history.

Vivians also became the fifth Bulldog to tally 1,000 points in two seasons, moving up to 17th in program annals with 1,121 points. She also advanced to fourth in career 3-pointers with 148.

MSU will hold its Hail State Hoops awards banquet at 6 p.m. Monday at The Mill Conference Center.

Tickets cost $25, and fans can RSVP by phone at 662-325-0198 or email at [email protected].

n Track and field programs ranked No. 11, No. 24: At Starkville, After a standout weekend at the Florida Relays, both Mississippi State track and field teams landed in the top 25 of the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association.

The women’s team stayed at No. 11, while the men’s team entered at No. 24

“We had an outstanding weekend in Florida,” MSU coach Steve Dudley said. “Everyone worked hard, and now they are getting the recognition they deserve.”

After clocking a personal-best 4 minutes, 12.91 second in the 1,500 meters to finish first, Marta Freitas leads the nation in the event. Finishing second at the Florida Relays, Ffion Price ran a time of 4:17.94, the ninth best in the nation.

Erica Bougard tied her person-al-best and the MSU school record this weekend in the high jump. She cleared 6 feet, 2 inches to win the event, which is currently the second-best height in the nation. Bougard ranks eighth in the long jump after a leap of 20-5 3/4 at the Florida State Relays.

Two weeks ago, Curtis Thompson threw a MSU school record 265-10 in the javelin, which is the second-best distance nationally.

To qualify for a region-al, a team must finish with a winning record. Ole Miss can reach that sta-tus for the fourth time in program history with one more win.

Meanwhile, MSU has work to do to reach a fifth-straight regional. The Bulldogs have four non-conference games left (starting with South Ala-bama at 6 p.m. Wednesday at home). MSU will have to win those four games and win at least four of its final 15 league games to reach 29 wins.

In his first season, Smith led the Rebels to a school-record tying 30 wins. The Rebels then took to the recruiting trail to bring in a higher-cali-ber athlete.

Lunderman and soph-omore left fielder Elantra Cox combined for eight of the team’s 15 hits Mon-day night. Each had a ca-reer-high four hits in the win.

“From day one, it was make a regional,” Cox said. “That was the No. 1 goal. That is all everyone talked about. It was time for Ole Miss softball to be taken seriously. We set a goal out there we knew we could reach. It’s really exciting to see how we get better each day.”

Ole Miss built a fast start with a home friend-ly non-conference sched-ule. As the wins mounted, so did the team’s confi-dence. That carried over to league play, where the Rebels took one game in the weekend series against top-15 foes Mis-souri and Kentucky.

“That was all leading to this moment,” Smith said. “We have been nipping at taking that big series. To win a conference series on the road is huge. Doing it against your main rival makes it that much better as well. We fought all three games. We had a chance to win all three games.”

Ole Miss used a three-run pinch-hit home run by Sarah Van Schaik to take a 4-3 win in the series opener Saturday night. On Sunday, Ole Miss saw a bevy of scoring changes go awry in a 1-0, eight-in-ning loss. The Rebels had to feel like they were go-ing down the same road Monday night after load-ing the bases with one out but not scoring in the first inning.

Kayla Winkfield began her career-high four-hit night with a leadoff single in the bottom of the first for MSU. Caroline Seitz followed with a sacrifice and Katie Anne Bailey fol-lowed with an RBI single. A bases-loaded hit bats-man forced in a run and made it 2-0.

Ole Miss answered with three runs in the second and didn’t trail the rest of the way.

“The second inning was really big,” Cox said. “We had such a hard loss Sunday night. Coaches told us to forget about that and come out and play our game. We knew how important winning this series would be.”

Ole Miss had 15 hits and received contribu-tions up and down the lineup. On the other hand, MSU had seven hits — all in the top three spots in the lineup. The bottom six spots of the lineup were 0-for-15 Monday and 2-for-45 in the series.

“Fifteen hits are abso-lutely too many to give up in a seven-inning ballgame,” MSU coach Vann Stuede-man said. “We threw five different pitchers and at some point, somebody has got to step up and get some outs. That was not the case tonight.”

Seitz hit a two-run home run to bring the Bulldogs within 7-4 in the fifth. However, such offen-sive excitement was a rar-ity for the Bulldogs in the series.

simple, it is another thing to execute it in pressure situa-tions.

“It boosted my confi-dence way high,” O’Neil said. “I depend on them to make the plays behind me. I try to throw more contact pitches so they can make the plays in the field, but if they can’t hit it, they can’t hit it.”

Glasgow has played just as big a role on offense. The 6-foot-2, 240-pounder entered Caledonia’s game against Louisville on Mon-day second on the team in batting average (.417) and first in hits (25), RBIs (18), home runs (two), and dou-bles (five).

Glasgow has rebound-ed from a junior season in which he hit .303. He ad-mits he was disappointed in the season that saw him have zero home runs, five doubles, and nine RBIs and that he might have put too much pressure on himself. He credits coaches John Wilson, Mark Hysaw, and Cody Brownlee for helping him with an approach at the plate that has seen him put the ball in play and make solid contact. He said he also has worked extra at home, where he has a bat-ting cage.

“I knew I had a lot of pressure on me coming in and I just have been trying to do as much as I can and not put too much pressure on myself,” Glasgow said.

A key to Glasgow’s abil-ity to be a run-producer in the No. 3 hole has been his willingness to go the other way. He said his first home run of the season was an opposite-field grand slam. Glasgow said he is trying to have fun and not letting the nerves get to him. He also said he has squared up a lit-tle bit with his feet and he is trying to use his bottom half more. As a result, he said it is refreshing to be produc-ing as much as he is in his final prep season.

“Last year, I knew I couldn’t hit opposite field to save my life,” Glasgow said. “This year, we work oppo-site every day. Sometimes we have two cages in (the field house where we work on hitting the ball the other way). I think over half of my hits this year have been to the opposite field.”

On Monday, Caledonia scored two runs in the top of the seventh inning to earn a 12-10 victory against Louisville in a Mississippi High School Activities As-sociation Class 4A, Region 4 game. The Confederates (12-8, 4-2 region) won their fifth game in a row after los-ing a 10-2 lead in the fifth.

Spencer Unruh pitched four innings and allowed four runs (one earned). he walked four and struck out seven. Caide Woods, Zane Bailey, and Cameron Allsup closed the game.

Jared Reed-Wood had two RBIs, Will Burton and Sam Cooper scored runs, Beau Bates was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and an RBI, Seth Brown was 2-for-3 with to runs scored and an RBI, Glasgow was 2-for-3 with two runs scored, two walks, a home run, and three RBIs, Jorden Hollowell had an RBI, Mims was 3-for-4 with an RBI, Logan Suggs was 2-for-5 with a double and three runs scored, and Allsup was 1-for-3 with a run scored and an RBI.

Caledonia will play today at Houston in another Class 4A, Region 4 matchup. The teams will play Friday in Caledonia.

FAMILY CIRCUS

DEAR ABBY: Last week one of

my associates asked me out for drinks. I have been working with him for the same length of time that I have been married. I know he’s interested because he has been texting me about unrelated work things and is always flirting.

I am very much in love with my husband, but my co-worker is very tempting. I’m worried about hurting my husband, but at the same time I’m excited about what this new man can offer me. Did I mention that he’s the top lawyer of the firm? — TEMPTED IN SOUTH CAROLINA

DEAR TEMPTED: Let’s pretend for a moment that the situation was reversed and this letter came from the husband you “love very much.” How would you feel if he acted on his temptation? When people marry, they promise each other certain things, chief among them fidelity. That “Alpha Dog” may want to have a fling

with you may be flattering, but it isn’t necessarily a compliment.

Take a step back and consider what could happen to your career at that firm and how you would feel if things don’t go the way you’d like. (Example: An attractive woman is hired and you are dropped like a hot potato.) I’m guessing that you are not the first

woman this has happened to in that office.

DEAR ABBY: My oldest daughter feels we should be available to watch or pick up our grandkids whenever she calls. I suffer from chronic pain and have good days and bad. I never know when I’ll have a bad day.

My daughter asks me to watch or have overnights with her children a month in advance. I don’t know how I will be doing then, but if I cancel because I’m not feeling well, she gets bent out of shape. We have had fights about this, and I need someone else’s advice.

I raised my kids and I love my grandkids, but sometimes I don’t feel well enough to baby-sit or have an overnight. Are grandparents obligated to watch their grandkids whenever their parents need them? — FEELING USED IN OREGON

DEAR FEELING USED: If you’re feeling used, then you probably are. Your health con-cerns surely are no mystery to your daughter. Tell her you are glad to look after the grand-children if you are up to it. But in case you aren’t, she should have an alternate ready to step in should the need arise, because it MAY. And don’t apologize for it.

Dear Abby

HoroscopesTODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April

5). Your solar return will give you the courage to let go of what’s holding you back. If you still don’t realize what exactly that is, you’ll learn in the next three weeks. You’ll gain access to an exclusive world in May. June brings a new way of running your daily life. An audacious long-term goal will be realized in August. Aquarius and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 44, 47, 3 and 17.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). When it comes to following your heart’s desire, there’s no such thing as being too old to start or too young to start. It’s the happiness of your heart that counts, not the age of it.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It’s not a day for putting up with your own trepidation. The minute you feel yourself hesi-tate, push yourself to dive into the thing that gives you pause. Face the fears now while they are still small.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The candy colors of this envi-ronment were exciting to you at one time, but you’ve matured. Now you want to interact in a place with more to offer. You’re looking for variety and depth. You’ll find it, too.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Fast fixes, succinct answers and brief interactions rule the early day, because you’ve something juicy to get to — something you’d like to savor in

slow motion. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A lot

could happen; a lot might hap-pen. Playing the odds is smart today, and the odds are against those “coulds” and “mights.” Focusing on what (SET ITAL) is (END ITAL) happening will be lucrative and satisfying.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Overcoming the fear of rejection is a simple process. All you have to do is get rejected a few times so you no longer fear it. The timing couldn’t be more perfect, as the stars favor personal risk.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You don’t always get the laughs you’re going for, which is why you so appreciate how you’re able to deliver levity now. You are far more entertaining than you might suspect! Your stories help others develop a better sense of humor.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your success is closely linked to confidence. Maybe you can’t entirely fake being sure of yourself, but the fact that you try is enough. Believing in your ideas will be half the battle. Convincing the others will be the other half.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You have the attitude of a hard worker, and so you’ll be able to handle whatever job comes up. Whether or not it’s within your jurisdiction or exper-tise is beside the point really.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Children (and those who behave as such) respect you greatly, and yet something stub-born and innate will have a few of them pushing the boundaries anyway. Keep cool and enforce your position as you said you would.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You would prefer to travel comfortably, first-class if pos-sible; who wouldn’t? And yet, that comfort comes with such a high cost today (spiritually and financially) that it will be worthwhile to take the “coach” alternative.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You feel as though you are standing on the precipice of something grand, overwhelming and dangerous. You’re above this, but you’re not the master of it. Do not let it mesmerize you away from your firm footing.

been textbook in Homan’s eyes be-cause of the way the course is set up. Old Waverly is playing 7,088 yards, but the pins haven’t been easy to attack.

“He made a lot of pars, didn’t make a lot of birdies, but with the pins being tough, he played how you’re supposed to play,” said Homan, who doesn’t feel being in contention will faze Bell. “I’m most proud of how he’s going about his business. For a freshman who’s playing really for his first year, I couldn’t be more happy with what he’s doing.”

In the second round, Bell went to the 18th tee box, his 15th hole of the round, at 1-under, but he hit a snap hook off the tee and the ball found the water. He recorded a double bogey and then bogeyed the first hole to drop to 2-over.

“I’m absolutely exhausted. I’ve got two holes left and I’m really wanting to push and get some birdies coming in,” Bell said. “I hit the green in two on hole two and made birdie. I missed about a 15-footer for birdie on three, so it was

nice to have some good shots coming in down the stretch.”

Bell birdied the 513-yard par-5 sec-ond and parred the 170-yard par-3 third to finish strong.

Homan was impressed with how the Madison native composed himself after two bad holes.

“He’s a mature kid, so I don’t real-ly expect anything less,” Homan said. “His golfing maturity is starting to catch up with his every day maturity.”

South Alabama’s Peter Staalbo is the leader at 5-under after a 3-under 69 and a 2-under 70. Ole Miss’ Braden Thorn-berry is tied for second with McNeese State’s Martin Eriksson at 4-under.

McNeese State leads the team com-petition at 4-under, while Ole Miss is second at 3-under.

Even though MSU is tied for sev-enth, Bell likes playing at the team’s home course.

“It helped so much,” Bell said. “Shots were normal. Normally guys that come

here that haven’t played are uncomfort-able, which makes a huge difference. I’m comfortable because I’ve hit those shots hundreds of times.”

Bell’s best finish is a tie for 12th at the Shoal Creek Invitational at Shoal Creek Country Club in Birmingham, Alabama, last September. He recorded an even-par 71 in the final round.

The Germantown High School product said he still needs to be better around and on the greens, but he likes how he is hitting the ball off the tee and in the fairway. After feeling good Monday, Bell is ready to put together a complete tournament and show that consistency.

“Hopefully (today) I’ll just give my-self a few more closer birdie looks, just make a few more birdies because that’s what it’s going to take to be in conten-tion,” Bell said. “You’re not going to win by making pars out here.”
