    Got unfortunate news. The "temporary" layoff from the Herald-Dispatch was made permanent. I thought that might be the case but I was hopeful. Brighter days are ahead though. I've enrolled at Marshall for the fall semester to finish my degree.

    At Cabell Midland High School for senior night against Riverside. Needless to say it’s a somber ceremony following the passing of Caige Rider whose helmet is on display and a decal with his number is being worn on the CMHS helmets.
