Starkville is look-
ing at strengthening
its stormwater ordi-
nance to help prevent
future problems with
flooding.
Assistant City En-
gineer Cody Burnett
updated aldermen at Burnett
a work session Friday on a proposed
revision to the ordinance, which is
included in the city’s larger ongo-
ing development code rewrite. The
city’s development code lays out
the city’s requirements for zoning
and land type designations, as well
as the processes and guidelines for
building new developments or al-
tering existing ones.
Friday’s update was prompted
by flooding due to heavy rains ear-
lier in the week.
One change for the ordinance,
Burnett said, is that it would re-
quire new developments or redevel-
opments to increase the amount of
stormwater that can be retained.
The city’s current ordinance
requires developments to retain
enough water from two- or 10-year
rainfall events. Under the proposed
change, the requirement would be
increased to handle enough rainfall
for a 100-year event.
“Year” events are determined
by the likelihood of a particular
amount of rainfall falling at a loca-
tion in any given year, according
to the U.S. Department of Agricul-
ture. For example, a two-year event
has a 50-percent chance of happen-
ing in any year, and a 10-year event
has a 10-percent chance. A 100-year
event has a 1-percent chance of hap-
pening at a location in a given year.
Burnett said the increase in the
threshold is not a multiplication.
For example, a property that has
to prepare to retain enough storm-

Powerful storms swept across the

at least eight people and injured dozens,

One Monroe County resident, as well
as three children in other states, were
among the dead.

It started when Rutherford, who
lived in New Hope, constantly wor-

Kosciusko.
“The area in Kosciusko she lived
in, they still had dial up internet,”
Rutherford said. “That’s backwoods

If Benton didn’t answer her

after, according to the New
Testament, the public’s
mood changed, and Jesus
was arrested, mocked,
scourged and executed.
“Festive acclamations

lence of Jesus throughout

impressive,” Francis said
in his homily.
The pope cautioned
against the temptation of
“triumphalism,” which he
said feeds itself by “look-

constantly judging them
inferior, wanting, failures.”
Francis added that “one
subtle form of triumphal-

He recommended humili-

temptations.

Analysis: Redistricting a big task for incoming lawmakers

Political boundaries are supposed to be redrawn at least once a
decade, after new Census numbers reveal which parts of the state
have gained residents and which have lost them
By EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS
The Associated Press
JACKSON — People elect-
ed to the Mississippi House
and Senate this year will be in
charge of redrawing legislative
districts in the coming term.
It’s an important and inher-
ently political task. And things
could get ugly in the push-and-
pull between the two major par-
ties.
Mississippi has 52 districts
in the Senate and 122 in the
House. Political boundaries are
supposed to be redrawn at least
once a decade, after new Census
numbers reveal which parts of
the state have gained residents
and which have lost them.
Ideally, districts would be
balanced by population, with
roughly 57,390 residents in each
Senate district and 24,460 in
each House district. Those num-
bers are based on July 2017 pop-
ulation estimates, which will, of
course, change once the nation-
al head count is done next year.
The Census Bureau website
shows that the U.S. population
grew 5.5% between the last Cen-
sus in April 2010 and the most re-
cent date for which county-level
estimates are posted, July 2017.
Mississippi lagged behind
the national rate, growing an
estimated 0.5% during that pe-
riod. In raw numbers, that is
an increase from 2,967,297 to
2,984,100 in the state.
For years, the fastest-grow-
ing part of Mississippi has been
DeSoto County, in the far north-
western corner of the state. Part
of the growth is driven by people
leaving Memphis, Tennessee,
and establishing homes in the
suburbs. DeSoto County’s pop-
ulation grew 10.8% during those
seven-plus years, gaining about
17,500 residents. And it is still
growing.
On the Gulf Coast, Harrison
County grew 9.6%, an increase
of about 17,920 people.
Two suburban counties out-
side Jackson also experienced
healthy growth. Madison Coun-
ty grew 9.9%, gaining more than
9,400 residents. Rankin Coun-
ty grew 7.1%, gaining just over
10,000 people.
Lamar County, near Hatties-
burg, grew 10.7%, gaining about
5,700 people.
A tougher story is being writ-
ten in Hinds County, which is
home to the capital city of Jack-
son, and in the Delta.
Although Hinds County still
has the largest population of any
county in the state, its numbers
decreased by 2.4%, or nearly
5,900 people.
The population of the Delta’s
Leflore County decreased by an
estimated 9.8%, with about 3,160
residents departing.
Also in the Delta, Washing-
ton County saw a decrease of
9.6%, or about 4,900 people.
With redistricting ahead,
these population changes are
good for Republicans and bad
for Democrats.
Republicans are in a strong
position to maintain their ma-
jorities in the Mississippi House
and Senate this year, based on
the numbers of candidates run-
ning from each party.

Ordinance
Continued from Page 1A
water for a 10-year event
in Starkville must be able
to handle six inches of
rain in a 24-hour period.
Preparing for a 100-year
event would increase that
to 9.4 inches of rain in 24
hours.
“I know that sounds
like a lot at first, but it’s
important to keep in mind
that a 100-year event is
not 10 times greater than
a 10-year event,” Burnett
said.
“One note is that a
lot of engineers are al-
ready designing systems
for this 100-year event
because it’s common in
other municipalities as
a measure of safety,” he
later added. “We’re just
hoping to make this a re-
quirement, rather than a
suggestion.”
Burnett said the city’s
stormwater ordinance
hasn’t been updated since
2010. The city has looked
to similar municipalities,
such as Oxford, Tupelo
and Columbus, for guid-
ance on the updated ordi-
nance.
“Since then, there’s
then been a good bit of
technology and litera-
ture released, so this is a
great time to be updating
this code,” Burnett said.
“I think it’s worth saying
that all updates and revi-
sions are under review
and subject to change.
Even though we are ap-
proaching a final product,
we’re still getting feed-
back from other depart-
ments and colleagues.”
The proposed updates
also include a provision
that would automatical-
ly trigger downstream
drainage studies for de-
velopments of certain
sizes. Burnett said there
have been issues with
developments causing
flooding in other areas,
due to increased runoff.
The change would seek
to help mitigate that prob-
lem.
Any new development
larger than two acres
would need to conduct a
study to determine how
best to handle increased
runoff and whether to
implement stormwater
storage adjustments to
prevent flooding.
“If they are capable of
meeting the stormwater
ordinance as is, this is a
little more work but it’s
not more difficult work,”
he said. “It’s pretty intui-
tive if you know how to do
what we already require.”
Ward 3 Alderman Da-
vid Little, who Burnett
said asked for the up-
date, said
he liked the
city taking
a stricter
approach
to dealing
with storm-
water.
“ I ’ m Little

Ducks take a stroll
“The duck’s
nest was found
today near the
trail on the dry
open prairie
with, as far as
could be seen, no
water or marsh
near.”
George
Mercer Daw-
son, Canadian
geologist and Shannon Bardwell
surveyor (1849-
1901)
The oddest thing happens every year
about this time. Besides the torrential
rains, the Pekin ducks come waddling
up to the house. They leave the big
lake, waddle across the field and around
to the back of the house, then forage
through the grass. They also park
themselves under the bird feeders and
nibble for spilt seed. This is not a good
thing. There’s no protection for them in
the wide-open spaces. Pekins can’t fly.
They are a heavy breed, and their wings
don’t provide the lift power needed.
The whole reason our ducks have a
lake with a floating platform is for safe-
ty. So, in the early spring they chose
to waddle to the house. It’s baffling.
Mostly they meander around the house
awhile, then head back to the lake.
Last week they spent the whole day
near the house foraging and sleeping.
When they sleep, they lower close to the
ground and turn their heads backwards,
tucking their bill into their back feath-
ers. They look so lovely — so white and
peaceful, but it’s not safe and I worry.
The skies darkened and the rain
began to fall. I grabbed a kitchen apron
and covered myself in case I had to pick
Hilda up in my arms. She would fight
me, but I thought carrying her close
to my chest would calm her and Helen
would follow. It was not to be. Normally
I can herd them back to the lake, but
that day they’d circle back on me or
around the trees. I picked up a stick and
tried to gently guide them like a shep-
herdess, but they would have none of it.
I even enlisted Harry the cat to help, but
even Harry couldn’t get them to go back
to the lake. I had no choice but to give
up and to hope and pray for the best.
Thankfully, ducks have excellent
vision. I’ve marveled at how I can step
out the front door or from the car and
the ducks honk at me from across the
field. Their eyes are located on either
side of their head, giving them a field of
vision of almost 340 degrees. Because
of the shape of their eyes they can see
near and far at the same time. They
have three eyelids and see in color. I’m
not sure how scientists know they see in
color, but they say they do.
I’ve seen one duck sleep while the
other keeps a single “eye” out. Some-
times they both sleep, but research
shows part of their brain may stay
awake so they can sense a threat in less
than a second.
Pekin ducks can lay over 150 large
white eggs in a year. They are not
known to be good “sitters” and leave
their eggs just about anywhere. I have
cooked duck eggs. The yolk is very
yellow and nutritious, but somehow it
doesn’t seem right to cook Helen’s and
Hilda’s eggs. The sisters are 7 years old
now. They must be doing something
right.

Musings

Stealing the tools

When I was very young,
maybe 40 years ago, I
worked with a number of
unreconstructed working-
men. They had been born
on farms, most of them, and
many of them had plowed
with a mule, or picked cotton
by hand.
They’d left that life and
found factory work in a
large Midwestern city. They
Marc Dion
all smoked, and they wore
no jewelry except a gold
wedding band and a silver-colored wristwatch with an
expandable band.
They had an intense dislike of the boss and an even
stronger dislike for a workingman who liked the boss.
They had their own language, too, and I used to
speak it pretty well before I came out of graduate
school with my second piece of stamped paper and
went to work for newspapers, where my language be-
came polluted by press releases and co-workers who
were the sons of lawyers.
To those old guys, getting fired was called “getting
a DCM.” In that language, “DCM” stood for “don’t
come Monday.”
And when things weren’t going well for the compa-
ny, when work in the plant was slowing down, there
weren’t may new orders, the overtime was gone and
the boss was looking even more pointy-nosed than
usual, one of my 50-something, big-knuckled co-work-
ers would look around and speak in kind of a sigh.
“Well, boys,” he’d say. “It’s time to start stealing
the tools.”
What he meant was that the company was going
under, so you might as well steal something you could
sell after the last paycheck bounced.
It was a crude, blunt, dishonest way of dealing
with the certain knowledge that your DCM was being
cooked up in the payroll office.
Lately, as the rich bribe their kids into college, and
the president’s holding his tax returns like he’d hold
the private area of a protesting starlet, as the drug
companies hold your insulin hostage, as the full-time
work vanishes, and the part-time work is everywhere,
and the guys with the deep dedication to Jesus consid-
er cutting Social Security, I’ve got the feeling that the
guys at the top are stealing the tools.
Of course, when I was down on the loading dock,
taking a cigarette break 40 years ago, it was only us
hourly bums who considered swiping a socket set
before the ship went down. The guys in the office
seemed calmer, and we knew they were more likely
than we were to have some cushion money in the
bank.
I’m watching the whole rich carnival of thievery in
America, a carnival conducted mostly at the top, and
I’m wondering why the bosses would steal the tools.
Don’t they have a little cushion money somewhere?
And they do, but they’ve sensed it doesn’t matter
what you take now. They laid the security guard off
months ago, and you can get anything out the back
door.
They must think they’ve got some chance of keep-
ing what they steal, after America closes, and they
padlock the door, and tell the rest of us not to come
Monday.
In my life, I’ve worked through layoffs, buyouts,
forced overtime, no overtime, pay cuts, company
bankruptcies, “staff reductions” and sudden closings.
I know when it’s coming, but this is the first time
I’ve ever seen a boss scurry out the back door with a
box of tools.

APNewsBreak: Trump building up a campaign cash advantage

Trump campaign: donation of $34.26.

Nearly all donations

were $200 or less,
with an average
donation of $34.26
By ZEKE MILLER
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Presi-
dent Donald Trump’s reelection
campaign is set to report that it
raised more than $30 million in
the first quarter of 2019, edg-
ing out his top two Democratic
rivals combined, according to
figures it provided to The Asso-
ciated Press.
The haul brings the cam-
paign’s cash on hand to $40.8
million, an unprecedented war
chest for an incumbent presi-
dent this early in a campaign.
The Trump campaign said
nearly 99% of its donations were
of $200 or less, with an average
Trump’s fundraising ability
was matched by the Repub-
lican National Committee,
which brought in $45.8 million
in the first quarter — its best
non-election year total. Com-
bined, the pro-Trump effort
is reporting $82 million in the
bank, with $40.8 million be-
longing to the campaign alone.
Trump formally launched
his reelection effort just hours
after taking office in 2017, ear-
lier than any incumbent has in
prior years. By contrast, for-
mer President Barack Obama
launched his 2012 effort in
April 2011 and had under $2
million on hand at this point in
the campaign.
Obama went on to raise
more than $720 million for his
reelection. Trump’s reelection
effort has set a $1 billion target
for 2020.

A second tornado,
EF-1, touched down at
10:18 p.m. just east of
the Starkville Country
Club. It traveled north-
east through Oktoc and
Blackjack and stopped
near Sand Creek and the

Receiving corps among questions for Dawgs entering new season

BY BEN PORTNOY

And so the Mississippi spring, its tor-
rential downpours, tornados, and fluctu-
ating sunshine, will begin to shift toward
the summer.
The Mississippi State football team
will also make its turn toward the sum-
mer and ensuing regular season.
With the end of Saturday’s Maroon
and White scrimmage, the Bulldogs will
conclude spring practices Tuesday with
a walkthrough-style practice.
And while the controlled atmosphere
of Saturday’s game was far from a per-
fect predictor of fall success, it gave
onlookers a glimpse of what lies ahead
— including a desperately shallow re-
ceiving corps.

Ginn hits high speeds in return for Diamond Dawgs
BY BEN PORTNOY
bportnoy@cdispatch.com
It’s been a little over a week since
freshman pitcher JT Ginn was pulled af-
ter just one inning of work against Ten-
nessee with shoulder soreness.
With bated breath, the MSU fan base
and coaching staff awaited a read on
the youthful sensation’s status. Over
the past seven days, head coach Chris
Lemonis tempered naysayers with reas-
surances that he did not believe it was
anything serious.
The initial diagnosis looked more
foreboding when MSU did not an-
nounce a Sunday starter ahead of this
weekend’s series against Alabama.
Then Sunday came.
Donning the customary game three
“Nickel-Black” jersey, Ginn routinely
pounded the strike zone against the
Crimson Tide — 34 times to be exact.
Touching as high as 93 miles per
hour on the radar gun perched atop the
center field scoreboard, he fanned Ala-
bama batters with a mix of power and
precision. Ginn flashed a high-velocity
fastball with a shifting breaking ball en

pitch count going into today so I tried
to get early contact and get as far in the

ing to victory in his Sunday red at the
Masters, a scene once so familiar, was
never more stunning.
It was only two years ago at Augus-
ta National that Woods needed a nerve
block just to hobble upstairs to the Cham-
pions Dinner, unsure he would ever play
another round of golf. He had a fourth
back surgery with hopes of simply play-
ing with his two children, not chasing
Jack Nicklaus in history.
And now it’s all pieced back together
— his life, his back, even golf.
A fallen hero, a crippled star, Woods is
a Masters champion again.
He won his fifth green jacket, his
15th major, but never with this much raw
emotion. The most ferocious fist pump
was when he walked off the 18th green,
scooped up 10-year-old son Charlie, and
embraced his mother and his 11-year-old
daughter Sam.
“For them to see what it’s like to have
their dad win a major championship, I
hope that’s something they will never
forget,” Woods said.
Who can ever forget this day?
“It’s hard to really feel bad about how
I played because I just witnessed histo-
ry,” said Xander Schauffele, one of three
players who finished second. “It was real-
ly cool coming down the stretch, all the
historic holes, Tiger making the roars. I
feel like I got full Masters experience.”
The comeback goes beyond the two-
shot deficit he erased before a delirious
audience that watched memories turn
into reality.
It had been 14 years since he last won
the Masters — no one had ever gone that
long between green jackets. He had gone
nearly 11 years since his last major, the
2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines on a shat-
tered left leg.
This was bigger.
Woods never missed a shot that mat-
tered over the final seven holes, taking
the lead with a 5-iron to the fat of the
green on the par-5 15th for a two-putt
birdie, delivering the knockout with an
8-iron that rode down the ridge by the
cup and settled 2 feet away for birdie on
the par-3 16th.
He tapped in for bogey and a 2-under
70, and the celebration was on.
“WOOOOOOO!!!” Woods screamed

Golf Dawgs home for Old Waverly tourney

BY PAUL D. BOWKER
pbowker@cdispatch.com
The Mississippi State men’s golf
team is finally home.
Oh, the Golf Dawgs haven’t
been totally away. They’ve prac-
ticed. They’ve gone to class. And
they hit the road for a season full of
tournaments.
But on Monday and Tuesday,
they’re home to host the Old Wa-
verly Collegiate Championship at
the Old Waverly Golf Club in West
Point.
“This is a special week for our
program because we get to play
on our home course and in front of
our home crowd only once a year,”
MSU coach Dusty Smith said. “I
am looking forward to having our
fans out there cheering us on.”
The tournament is the last at
Old Waverly for MSU seniors Aus-
tin Rose and Ross Bell. As a fresh-
man, Bell tied for eighth place in
the tournament.
The 15-team field includes No.
4-ranked Vanderbilt and Ole Miss
of the Southeastern Conference,
and also Southern Miss.

before the Bulldogs head to St. Si- Kelly Donoho/MSU Athletics Communications

msu roundup

Women’s tennis squad overcomes deficit, knocks off LSU

FROM SPECIAL REPORTS
The Mississippi State wom-
en’s tennis team notched its
most profound win to date with
a 4-3 victory over LSU Sunday.
Trailing 3-0, MSU rattled off
four straight singles victories to
seal the upset.
On senior day at the A.J.
Pitts Tennis Centre, it was se-
niors Anastasia Rentouli and
Janina Braun who served as the
catalysts.
At No. 2 singles, Rentouli
took down No. 59 ranked Jes-
sica Golovin 7-6(1), 6-3 while
Braun earned a three set victo-
ry over Anna Loughlan at No.
5 singles to earn the deciding
point.
“It was an epic senior day.
We needed that win,” head
coach Daryl Greenan said.
“The girls have been fighting
so hard all year. They show up
all year, whether they won or
lost the last one.”
The Bulldogs next head to
College Station, Texas, for the
SEC Championship. Seeded
12th, MSU will take on No. 13
seed Auburn at 1 p.m. Wednes-
day.
WOMEN’S SOCCER: Ju-
nior forward AK Ward led the
MSU women’s soccer team
to a 4-3 spring exhibition win
over Southern Mississippi in
Starkville.
Notching a hat trick on the
day, Ward opened the scoring
just 45 seconds into the match
when she buried a failed clear
near the six-yard box.
Tied three-all in the fleeting
moments, junior forward Olivia
Hernandez delivered the hero-
ics with a goal off the inside of
the post for the game-winning
score.
MSU concludes its spring
exhibition series at 5 p.m.
Thursday against Mississippi
College in Starkville.
SOFTBALL: The MSU
softball team dropped its third
game of the weekend to No. 9/8
Tennessee Sunday 9-2.
Sophomore pitcher Emily
Williams was solid, giving up
just five hits in her 5.2 innings
of work, but seven Bulldog er-
rors scored six unearned LSU
runs.
Freshman utility player Kay-
la Boseman was among the lone
bright spots, hitting her first ca-
reer home run — a solo shot in
the second inning.
Boseman finished 1-for-3 at
the dish.
Juniors Candace Denis, Fa
Leilua and senior Kat Moore
were the only Bulldogs to re-
cord multi-hit games.
MSU closes its non-confer-
ence schedule Tuesday in Bir-
mingham, Alabama, against
UAB. First pitch is 5 p.m.
MEN’S TENNIS: The MSU
men’s tennis team finished its
regular season Sunday after-
noon, beating No. 36 LSU 4-0 in
Baton Rouge.
The win was the Bulldog’s
ninth consecutive victory and
10th win in their last 12 meet-
ings with the Tigers.
“We wanted to finish confer-
ence play strong today against
LSU,” head coach Matt Roberts
said. “The conditions today
were very windy, and our guys
embraced that challenge and
competed very well.”
With the win MSU finished
second in the SEC and will be
the No. 2 seed in this week’s
conference championship.
They’ll take on the winner of
No. 7 seed Kentucky and No. 10
seed Vanderbilt at 11 a.m. Fri-
day.

Baseball
Continued from Page 1B
the surefire No. 2 starter
from the outset of 2019.
Ginn boasts a 3.35
ERA in nine starts and
has 64 strikeouts to his
credit. Further, he’s giv-
en up more than two runs
just twice and now holds a
6-1 record on the season.
“He’s throwing it hard-
er than he has in weeks,”
Lemonis said. “So it’s
nice to have him back out
there.”
Behind Ginn it’s been
a season-long struggle to
fill the No. 3 pitching slot.
Senior Peyton Plumlee
did so with ease in Satur-
day’s 9-1 win — tossing
five innings while giving
up just four hits and zero
runs — but he’s been mar-
ginally consistent at best.
Freshman Eric Cerantola
has been a disaster of late
as his ERA ballooned to
5.40 after beginning the
season with four straight
outings without allowing
an earned run.
Even junior reliev-
er Jack Eagan start-
ed Wednesday’s game
against South Alabama
with limited success.
But with Ginn healthy
and back to his usual ways
the concerns can dissi-
pate. Sunday showed why.
DAWG NOTES:
Game three against the
Crimson Tide was just the
latest offensive explosion
for the Diamond Dawgs.
MSU totaled 13 runs
on 17 hits on the day and
finished the weekend
with 28 runs and 40 hits.
This was also the Di-
amond Dawgs’ first SEC
sweep of the season.
“The difference in
sweeping or going 2-1 is
a two-game [swing], and
for us, we need to make up
some ground so it was big
for us this weekend and as
we move forward,” Lemo-
nis said.
Sophomore first base-
man Tanner Allen contin-
ued his recent tear with
a 4-for-5 day. His batting
has now jumped from .240
entering last weekend’s
series against Tennessee
to .276 Sunday.
“Been coming up here
early before games and
hitting and we’ve devel-
oped a good routine and
I feel like that’s what got
me out of my slump,” Al-
len said.
Senior Marshall Gil-
bert also joined the hit
parade Sunday, notching
his second home run in as
many days with a long ball
over the right field fence
in the bottom of the fifth
inning.
Gilbert now has three
homers on the year.
Woods
Continued from Page 1B
as he headed for the scor-
ing room with chants of
“Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!” He
had never hugged more
people, everyone in his
camp who stood by him
through a public divorce,
an embarrassing mug
shot from his DUI arrest
when he took a bad mix
of painkillers and the four
back surgeries, the most
recent to fuse his lower
spine
“I had serious doubts
after what transpired
a couple of years ago,”
Woods said. “I could
barely walk. I couldn’t
sit. Couldn’t lay down. I
really couldn’t do much of
anything. ... To have the
opportunity to come back
like this, it’s probably one
of the biggest wins I’ve
ever had for sure because
of it.”
President Donald
Trump, who has played
with Woods at his Florida
course, had two tweets of
congratulations. Fenway
Park posted the news on
the scoreboard.
A comeback for the
ages?
It rates among the best
because Woods has meant
so much to so many in a
sport he ruled for so long.
Whether he can domi-
nate it again is still to be
determined. Woods need-
ed some help to win this
Masters. Six players had a
share of the lead at some
point on the back nine,
and there was a five-way
tie at the top when the fi-
nal group was still on the
15th fairway.
“You couldn’t have had
more drama than we all
had out there. And now
I know why I’m balding,”
Woods said. “This stuff is
hard.”

Dawgs

again delivered another
well-thrown ball toward
the goal post.
Once more, the ball fell
harmlessly to the ground.
MSU fans undoubtedly
harbor memories of last
year’s Outback Bowl bob-
ble by Guidry.
Stuck in mid-air, the
ball was batted into the
hands of Iowa safety Jake
Gervase midway through
the fourth quarter.
The drop in the end
zone wiped out a touch-
down and later proved
the difference in the
Hawkeyes’ 27-22 victory.
So while the spring
game was meaningless,
it’s less than encouraging
for a group that’s suffered
through the importance
of drops that they’ve per-
sisted.
Experience resides on
the line: MSU finished
the 2018 season as the
No. 2 rushing offense in
the Southeastern Confer-
ence.
While Joe Moorhead’s
spread offense lends itself
to short throws and cross-
ing routes, the running
aspect remains a focus.
In front of those run-
ners will be an older, yet
inexperienced group of
offensive linemen.
In the middle is center
and recently appointed
team captain Darryl Wil-
liams.
Williams has spent the
majority of his career at
guard before shifting in-
side this spring.
To his sides will likely
be juniors Stewart Re-
ese and Dareuan Parker
at guard, while seniors
Tyre Phillips and Tommy
Champion should occupy
the tackle spots.
Entering 2019, that
group combined for 57 ap-
pearances last season.
Five-star early enrollee
Charles Cross could fig-
ure into the equation as
well when he gets more
practice reps under his
belt.
So while the flashy fo-
cus has been on quarter-
backs and receivers this
spring, it’s the offensive
line that should garner
plenty of attention come
fall.
NEW FACES, NO
PROBLEM: The NFL
Draft is now 21 days away.
Projections are not the
end all be all, but former
MSU defensive lineman
Montez Sweat and Jeffery
Simmons are almost as-
sured to hear their names
called in the draft’s first
round.
In 2018, that duo com-
bined for 116 tackles —
32.5 for a loss — and 14
sacks.
In their place, senior
Chauncey Rivers and ju-
nior Marquiss Spencer
should anchor the defen-
sive line.
Spencer looked the
part of a capable defen-
sive end replacement this
spring. Not the athlete
specimen that Sweat was,
he’s shorter at 6-foot-4,
but brings more size at
285 pounds having been
converted from defensive
tackle.
In Saturday’s spring
game, he shot through
the gap and smothered
senior running back Alec
Murphy in his own end
zone for a safety.
Rivers, a one-time
Georgia Bulldog, played
inside and out in last
year’s defense and offers
some dynamic upside in
a potentially heavier role.
Defensive coordinator
Bob Shoop said he antic-
ipates working Rivers in-
side in certain third and
fourth down packages.
On the interior senior
Lee Autry and freshman
Fabien Lovett have held
down the No. 1 spots thus
far. Moorhead also men-
tioned freshman Devon
Robinson and Cameron
Young as younger players
who could factor in.
“I think the pieces are
in place, but we need to
get a bunch of reps in to
get ready for the fall and
SEC play,” Moorhead
said.

NASCAR auto racing

Truex holds off Bowyer to win another for Joe Gibbs Racing
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RICHMOND, Va. — Martin
Truex Jr. had about 40 laps to go
and Clint Bowyer closing fast.
In a race to see who could
preserve their car best, Truex
outlasted Bowyer and then held
off a four-lap charge by Joey Lo-
gano to win the NASCAR Cup
Series race at Richmond Race-
way on Saturday night.
“I was struggling the last
40 laps,” Truex said. “I had not
front turn. I was just real, real
tight that last run. I just had to
hold him off. Being out front
was important tonight.”
Because he did, Truex gave
Joe Gibbs Racing its sixth vic-
tory in nine races this season
and won for the first time in his
career on tracks shorter than a
mile.
“At the end of the day, we
drove up to him and you get ter-
rible tight behind people,” Bow-
yer said.
Truex led a race-high 186
laps and regained the lead for
the last time after green-flag
pit stops that started with just
more than 80 laps to go. With
about 40 to go, Bowyer chal-
lenged with what seemed like
a faster car, but Bowyer finally
relinquished the second spot
to Logano, who also seemed
to have the faster car of the top
two.
Truex expertly navigated
lapped traffic and never let him
pass to win for the first time in
81 starts in the Cup series on a
short track. It’s his 20th career
victory and 17th in the last four
seasons.
“It means a lot to finally
break through,” Truex said in
Victory Lane. “I hope it was a
helluva show. It sure was fun
behind the wheel.”
Logano held on for second.
Bowyer was third and Kevin
Harvick fourth, giving Stew-
art-Haas Racing two top-four
finishers. Local favorite Denny
Hamlin was fifth.
“We were close, just not close
enough,” Logano said. “Ran out
of time there. ... Fun race, just
gosh. Three weeks in a row I
felt like we had a car that could
win the race and we haven’t
won. That’s a little frustrating,
but when you’re frustrated with
second, that’s a good sign.”
The stage for the finish was
set when the leaderboard got
shuffled beginning on Lap 318
when the cars running up front
began pitting under a green
flag.
When they all had new tires
and enough fuel to finish, Truex
was back in front, followed
by Bowyer, Logano, Harvick
and Hamlin. Brad Keselowski
dropped to eighth during the
cycle and Kyle Busch, seeking
his third victory in a row on the
0.75-mile, D-shaped oval, his
fourth of the season and second
in a row, fell back to 10th.
BUSTED: Eight cars failed
prerace inspection, including
three that failed twice. They
include local favorite Denny
Hamlin, Chase Elliott and Matt
Tifft.
As a result, NASCAR dis-
qualified their qualifying
speeds, sending them to the
rear of the field, disallowed
their pit stall selections and
ejected one engineer from each
team for the race.
Five other teams failed in-
spection and had their qualify-
ing speeds and pit selections
disallowed, also sending them
to the back. They were sev-
en-time series champion Jim-
mie Johnson, Aric Almirola,
Erik Jones, Daniel Suarez and
Joey Gase.
The series takes its tradi-
tional week off for Easter before
heading to Talladega Super-
speedway in two weeks.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April
15). Your gumption will be
invigorated, and your dreams
never seemed more possible
— largely because of your “no
excuses, no quitting” attitude.
You’ll change something in the
next three weeks that makes
it more possible to devote
yourself to your work. Surprises
will further enliven the journey,
including support people and
funding. Virgo and Cancer adore
BABY BLUES you. Your lucky numbers are:
40, 1, 38, 20 and 16.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You’re not threatened by other
talented people, because your
creativity allows you to see how
melding your talents together
makes everyone shine brighter.
BEETLE BAILEY
MALLARD FILLMORE
FAMILY CIRCUS
TAURUS (April 20-May
20). This game you’re playing
requires strategy. Think far
ahead, and then work backward
to determine how to get there,
imagining the variables you’re
likely to encounter along the
way.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
What’s ailing you may seem
like a matter of psychology,
but it can be handled just as
easily with a rearrangement
of schedule and some other
practical matters. It’s all about
your system. Make things easier
for yourself.
CANCER (June 22-July
22). Atmosphere can make or
break things such as dates,
dinner parties and even simple
conversations. The good news
is that you have a lot of power
over this. If a place doesn’t
feel right, just take the action
elsewhere.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
The manual for fiction writers
suggests that in a good story,
characters drive the plot and
not the other way around.
Similarly, today you decide who
you want to be, and your actions
advance the plot.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
This is a new you, so clear your
environment of all the unwanted
reminders of the old you doing
the old habits, and fill the space
with symbols, tools and fuels
that represent the new you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.
23). Once upon a time, the
role you’re in now seemed like
a distant impossibility, and
now you’ve set your sights on
another equally improbable (yet
eminently possible) reality.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). How you feel about the
decision right now is different
from how you’ll feel tomorrow
and next year. Keeping the
perspective of time in mind
helps you set future you up for
success.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21). No matter what the
problem is, you can be sure
that someone else has had it
or is having it right now. So find
out who’s in the club, and see
what you can learn. This one
will be solved more easily than
imagined.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). When people see you the
way you want to be seen, it
feels somewhat satisfying at
first, if a little hollow. That’s be-
cause there’s nothing quite as
fulfilling as being fully embraced
for who you really are.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). What you see is never all
that is. Magic shows are built
on this premise, and so are dra-
ma, branding and dating. Your
edge today is your curiosity.
You’ll follow it to answers that
are out of the frame and behind
the scenes.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). Once you’re in temptation’s
living room, it will seem impolite
to turn down the offerings.
You’re lucky that you know
where temptation lives. Don’t
even go down that street.
