Upon Further Review

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was Stuarts Draft’s first home track meet in five years, so go ahead and give the school a Bozo Button

and all.

So, sure. The Cougars have two dominant high jumpers in Caitlynn Filla and Christina Fenske, yada, yada, yada.

And, blah, blah, blah, Waynesboro’s 4x100 relay team of Tim Brown, Will Walter, Terrell Thompson and Ian Henneman ran in their first meet of the season and finished with the gold.

We all know the formula when it comes to Stuarts Draft football coach Rod Bowers. It involves holding the Bible in one hand and a playbook in the other. Of course, this is Bowers we’re talking about and that means, much like the American flag in a state color guard, the Bible is held higher than his on-field version of the state colors. But what a lot of people don’t know is that, when you sit down and talk to the humble Bowers, he also puts his kids on a pedestal as long as they work hard and work right. And, when the don’t work right, there’s heck to pay. (Remember the Cougars’ lone unsportsmanlike showing of the season in a win over Wilson Memorial? A win that had Bowers ready to pull his team off the field and forfeit any game the rest of the way if his boys acted in the same manner? Yeah, that game.)
