In their annual “Pink Out” game, the Hackett Jr High Lady Hornets hosted the Mansfield Jr High Lady Tigers to an all-out ace in your face volleyball party. The Lady Hornets took control of the first set through authoritative play bringing in the win 25-21. But even after delivering strong and unyielding game skills, Hackett ended falling 1-2 to the Lady Tigers.
Tori Blanton
Even though they didn’t snag the victory this time, the Lady Hornets were still able to rack up some powerful totals. Alona Rothwell led her team in the kills department with six followed by Mackenzie Mendenhall with five. Prairie Vaughn, Lilly Slavens, and Tori Blanton secured three each and Makenzie Freeman brought in one. Mendenhall also led with six assists with Vaughn totaling four and Slavens and Kyleigh Hill earning one each.
Lilly Slavens
Rothwell and Blanton were the aces duo with one apiece with Blanton also leading with three blocks while Mendenhall, Rothwell, and Slavens netted one each. And with more digs than an excavator was Freeman with nine, Mendenhall with seven, Rothwell and Slavens with six each, Vaughn with four, Hill with three, and Blanton with two.

The Hackett Jr High Lady Hornets will compete in two more matches this week until their attempt to take over District on Saturday. Tonight the Lady Hornets travel to Lavaca to take on the Lady Golden Arrows and on Thursday, October 10, Hackett heads to Bentonville to face the Lady Spartans of Northwest Arkansas Classical Academy. Both games have a start time of 4 p.m. On October 12, the Jr High Lady Hornets head to Decatur for their District Tournament.
The Magazine Little League Rattlers traveled the high seas to Cedarville Saturday, October 5th in an attempt to continue growing their program into a league powerhouse. It’s no longer a secret that the Rattlers are getting better and better each week and Cedarville spent all week trying to map them out.
The 3rd and 4th Grade Rattlers boarded the Cedarville ship looking to steal the fuses from the Pirates offensive cannons. Magazines defense did its job by coiling the Cedarville running backs up for most of the game. But the Pirates continued to fire at will eventually wearing down the Rattler defense. Although Cedarville scored twice in the game, the Rattlers earned plenty of respect by holding their own. The Magazine offense struggled to get into the end zone against Cedarville but not from a lack of effort. The Rattlers O-Line was able to open some big holes and Austin Scott and Braxton Canada were able to find the gaps to break out a few good runs. Magazine fought valiantly, but in the end, that Rattlers fell to Cedarville 14-0.
Magazine 3rd and 4th Grade Coach, Cody Shelton, said “We’re growing. The scoreboard doesn’t reflect the week to week improvements that our players are making. Our defense played well, we just could not get anything going on offense. We had a long run by Austin Scott and Braxton Canada got a lot of yardage on the ground, we just couldn’t get it done.”
The Rattlers 5th and 6th Grade team continued to set the standard as they pummeled Cedarville 30-0 to remain undefeated. Magazines unstoppable offense ate up yards and big plays all night putting the Pirates on their heels. Chakong Yang continued to impress with his explosiveness breaking away from the clutch of defenders during the game. Samuel Hartman also showed his determination grinding his way into the end zone for the Rattlers. Magazines defense held the Pirates number giving minimum yards knocking eye patches off the Cedarville backfield.
The Rattlers 5th and 6th Grade Coach, Charly Moua, stated “Overall our team played great. Offense went smooth and defense finally had a shutout that I have been waiting for. I was really impressed with Samuel’s touchdown. And Cedarville showed great sportsmanship in the game which is always a great thing to see.”
The Rattlers will play their last regular-season game on Saturday, October 12th against the JC Westside Rebels. Magazines 3rd and 4th Grade still has a shot at the playoffs with a win over the Rebels and the 5th and 6th Grade squad currently holds the #1 seed in the playoffs and will be playing to earn their first undefeated regular season in a long time. Saturday’s game will also be the Rattlers 6th Grade Appreciation night.
In a teeth-gritting white-knuckled volleyball match between the Mansfield Jr High Lady Tigers and the Hackett Jr High Lady Hornets, all bets were off on which high flying superstar team was going to assume the victory. The Lady Tigers stormed into Hackett with a point to prove and after the dust settled, its safe to say that their point was made. Mansfield held strong in this battle and it paid off. The Lady Tigers took the win 2-1 over the Lady Hornets ending with sets of 21-25, 25-16, and 15-13.
Alayna Turner
Madelen Jones led the team with four aces while Alayna Turner followed with three of her own. Skylynn Harris dominated with eight kills with Natalie Allison and Brooklyn Adams securing four each. Jones and Allison were quick to help with their six and five assists respectively. Kynslee Ward and Kinley Hanfielder combined for a total of six digs. And with one block apiece was Allison, Harris, and Edwards.
Alyson Edwards
This exciting win upgrades the Jr High Lady Tigers to 15-3 on the season and 9-1 in conference play. With only five games left until District, Mansfield isn’t worried about what the future holds. The Lady Tigers have found their niche and it shows. Mansfield will stay home tonight and host the Paris Lady Eagles starting at 4 p.m.
As the 3A-1 volleyball conference season winds down, the Charleston Lady Tigers played a non-conference match with the Lavaca Lady Golden Arrows on Monday night. The Lady Tigers defeated Lavaca 3-0 for the second time this season. Monday’s match in Charleston completed a sweep of the Lady Arrows in which Charleston did not lose a set in either match. The win improved Charleston’s record to 13-2 overall and 8-2 in conference play.
After the match, Charleston coach Ryan Rachuy assessed his team’s performance. “When you’re Charleston, everybody wants to come in and beat you. No matter what sport. And you can take that as a positive and a negative, and I want us to take that as a positive. I want us to take it as a challenge. We have to step up to the challenge to beat a team. Because it is difficult to be the team that everybody wants to go after. I know that teams like Paris feel it, Mansfield has felt it, and now we are feeling it. When you’re the team that is playing well then you’ve got to be able to play at the top of your game. You’re going to get everybody’s best shot. Lavaca has a great group of girls that go out and play hard. They don’t give up on any ball. They got some really good swings in; they were swinging from every spot of the court. That’s impressive. In the first set, I had us down for 12 or 13 errors, and that is a compliment to them. Ended up being able to pull that out, challenged my girls similarly to when we did against Mansfield when we had 12 errors in the first set and I challenged our girls to cut the errors in half. We did, we cut it to six errors then and we did again tonight. Really wish we could have played a little more consistently in that third set. Once we gave up the first three to five points, and we’re just trying to hang around, the next thing we know we get a point back here, we get a point on a serve error, and another serve, and we get another couple of points back there. And it’s back and forth, back and forth. We finally make it where it’s close and we got balls up, out of the net, and started feeding Jadyn (Womack).”
The Lady Tigers entered the week ranked sixth in class 3A by Max Preps. Charleston is ranked 34th overall in Arkansas across all classifications. The Lady Tigers only losses this season have been to the number one ranked Paris Lady Eagles.
Charleston has a grueling three match schedule this week that started with a tough non-conference match with Lavaca and will continue on Tuesday with a home conference match with West Fork. The Lady Tigers will travel to Waldron on Thursday to play a critical conference match with the Lady Bulldogs. Charleston is focused on finishing the conference season this week and next to wrap up the second seed in the senior district tournament. Critical road trips to Waldron and Mansfield await the Lady Tigers.
It is the time of year when coaches must strike a balance between pushing their teams to improve as much as possible before post-season tournament play begins, versus getting their teams the necessary amount of rest to enable them to have fresh legs and high energy for the tournament run. This is part of the art form of coaching, and it is a process that began several months ago with the scheduling of matches to be played in the final weeks. The Charleston coaching staff scheduled non-conference matches to end this week so that the Lady Tigers game schedule will begin to taper off with just two conference matches next week going into the district tournament the week after next. Coach Rachuy indicated that the tournament practice schedule will be dependent on the seeding the Lady Tigers earn going into the district tournament. Proper rest is important to the players this time of year for energy and to heal from season long injuries and / or soreness. Charleston, like any other contending program, wants to peak at tournament time and play their best volleyball of the season when they will be competing for district and state tournament titles.
The Lady Tigers will play in the Paris Lady Eagle invitational tournament on Saturday. The tournament will provide an opportunity for Charleston to step out of conference play and get some additional work in on Saturday that will hopefully payoff in the post season. The Paris tournament will end an intense week for the team before they play their final two matches of the regular season next week.
The conference season concludes next week for the Lady Tigers with a road game at Mansfield on Tuesday, October 15 and a final home match on Thursday, October 17 against Elkins. Senior night will be held on October 17, and that should be an emotional night as this outstanding senior class will play their final home match at the Charleston gymnasium. The 3A-1 district tournament will be held at West Fork High School the following week.
But for now, just as they have all season, the Lady Tigers have to remain focused on each match. That means that the West Fork game on Tuesday is now the most important game of the season for Charleston. The stakes are getting higher, and a slip up at this point of the season could have major implications with respect to tournament seeding, the quality of opponent that would be faced in the opening round, and the backets the Lady Tigers would occupy in the district tournament. With only three teams advancing from district to the state tournament, the next nine days are critical for the Lady Tigers.
Charleston will once again rely on their awesome senior class to lead them through the last nine days of the regular season.
On Friday, October 4, the Lavaca Middle School Gifted and Talented students, along with their teacher Mrs. Krista Hinton, got back to nature and explored the wonderful opportunities provided by War Eagle Cavern.
Students were taken on a 1-hour guided tour of the cavern where they learned about the local history surrounding the War Eagle area. During their time in the cavern, students learned about local bat species, water flows and falls, as well as how scientists determine the age of a cavern. They were also treated to an in-depth look at artifacts left behind during the shooting of the film, Frank and Jesse (1994), which was shot on location at War Eagle Cavern.
After the cavern tour, students explored the grounds, completed a “learning maze”, participated in a fossil dig, and were able to observe sink-holes around the cavern.
Finally, students were given the opportunity to pan for gemstones. They discovered gems that are native to Arkansas as well as those from around the world, and they got to keep what they found!
War Eagle Cavern is a great place to learn and explore!

The Mansfield Little League football program celebrated 6th Grade Appreciation on Saturday, October 5th. The stands were filled as a host of twelve sixth-graders who gave the program their all for years stepped into Tiger Stadium for their last Little League regular-season game. Both Tiger teams gave their sixth-graders the ultimate present by single handily crushing the Lavaca Golden Arrows in both games and pushing the program closer to the WCFL Playoffs.
6th Grade Tigers
The Tigers 3rd and 4th grade put their undefeated title on the line in a no holds barred match-up against the Golden Arrows with zero intentions of losing that title. Mansfield jumped off to a quick lead with Hunter Whittaker running like a rocket down the edge of the sideline for a touchdown. Colton Moore then took the ball up the middle untouched for the extra points giving the Tigers an 8-0 kick start to the game. Lavaca then fumbled the ball in Tiger territory allowing Colton Nelson to snatch the recovery giving Mansfield the ball right back. Whittaker would tack on three more touchdowns before sending the Tigers into the half with a hefty 30-0 lead.
#00 Colton Nelson
The second half of the game was all defense for Mansfield with a slight sprinkle of scoring. Lincoln Allison, Michael Carter, and Clayton Garrison were in the faces of the Arrows running backs all night. Layton Pyles, Deshaun Collins, and Thomas Boyd created chaos for Lavacas offense as well. Lavaca was able to punch one in for a score, but Trevin Hattabaugh got it all back as he screamed past the defense for a 70-yard touchdown. Raihan Islam sealed Lavaca’s fate with a stuffing tackle to end the game with a final of 36-6.
3/4 Grade Tigers
Mansfields 5th and 6th grade team wasn’t going to allow Lavaca to rain on their parade. This was their night. End of Story. On the Tigers’ first snap of the game, Dawson Robinson found a gap in the Arrows defense and exploded for a Tiger touchdown. Keyton Oliver and Cordell Stone kept Lavaca from keying in on just one running back as they split carries for big runs forcing the Golden Arrows to honor all of the Tiger running backs. The perfect balance in the Mansfield backfield created another score for Robinson giving the Tigers a 14-0 lead at the half.
#20 Dominic Shores
The Tigers defensive line dominated their foes all night. James “Critter” Bausley, Junior Cash, and Alex “Ax-Man” Hecox sent Lavacas offense running for their lives allowing defensive backs Keyton Oliver and Cooper Edwards to get easy open-field tackles. Ethan Martin was able to take a breakaway for a 45-yard touchdown while Dominic Shores knocked out a 70-yard score. In the end, the Tigers balance on both sides of the ball ousted Lavaca 36-0.
6th Grade Captains #35 Alex Hecox, #1 Cooper Edwards, and #69 James Bausley
The Pirates (4-1, 1-1) wasted no time Friday night showing why they have two of the top running backs in the 3A Conference by scoring on their open drive of the game. Darryl Kattich scored the Pirates first two touchdowns in the first half to jump out to a 12-0 lead. Kattich had 21 carries for 104 yards and two touchdowns on the night.
Darryl Kattich
The Tigers (2-3, 2-0) were held on their first two drives of the night and were forced to punt, but that did not last long as the Tigers would score on their next two possessions to take the lead at the half 13-12. The two teams would score on their opening drives of the second half to make the score 20-18. The Pirate quarterback, Calloway Henslee (3 carries, 41 yards) would slip out around the end for what would be the Pirate’s last score of the evening.
Calloway Henslee
Following another Tiger touchdown, to take the score to 27-18, the Tiger’s would execute an onside kick that would take crucial time off the clock, keeping the Pirate offense at bay. The Tigers were able to keep Junior Kelin Mitchell out of the end zone the entire contest but Mitchell was able to grind out 174 yards on 23 carries.
Friday night’s loss put the Pirates in a four-way tie for third place in the conference. This Friday night will be Homecoming for the Pirates as they host the Paris Eagles (2-3, 0-2) at 7:00pm.
It is often said that October is for pretenders and November is for contenders. As the 3A-1 conference season moves to its third week, the teams begin to separate themselves after head-to-head games. This season, with the large number of talented teams in the conference, each week has become a battle of heavyweights. Week three will certainly be no different. The week will be highlighted by the clash of Tigers at Alumni Field with the Charleston Tigers hosting the Mansfield Tigers on Friday. Mansfield defeated Charleston a year ago, 22-10, in Mansfield.
Prior to last week’s games, the Mansfield Tigers were ranked 17th in Class 3A by Max Preps, and 87th in Arkansas over all classifications. Charleston was ranked 20th in Class 3A and 109th overall. Those rankings should change on Tuesday when Max Preps releases its new rankings for this week based on the Charleston win and the Mansfield loss last week.
Friday night’s battle will be critical for both teams’ aspirations of making the playoffs. Mansfield was upset at Greenland last week for its first loss and first conference loss of the season. At the midpoint of the season, this becomes a must win game for the Red Tigers. Charleston has won its first two conference games and is in a tie with Booneville for the conference lead. A Charleston win would seperate themselves from some very good teams in the conference and would go a long way to placing the Tigers in the playoffs.
And, of course, set all of this aside, and consider that this is an intense rivalry for both schools, regardless of the records or the playoff implications, and you have a recipe for a very good high school football game.
This may be the most highly-anticipated football season in the Mansfield football program’s history. The Red Tigers are a senior-heavy team composed of perhaps the most talented class of players in their history. They have played together for many years, and have played varsity football for Mansfield starting with the last few games of their freshman year. They are a very talented and experienced team. Mansfield finished third in the conference last season and very well could have been the second seed. Mansfield hosted and defeated Melbourne in the first round of the 2018 state playoffs. The Tigers lost to eventual state runner-up Osceola at Osceola.
Mansfield is coached by Tim Cothran. Cothran served as offensive coordinator for the Tigers under then head coach Craig Bentley who moved on to become the head coach at Mena. Cothran was promoted to head coach in July of this year. The move to promote Cothran has paid dividends for the Tigers as the experienced team was able to smoothly transition to the new head coach in the summer just prior to the start of the season.
On offense, Mansfield, through five games, has completed 76 passes on 102 attempts for 1,274 yards. The Red Tigers average 254.8 yards passing per game. Mansfield is led by senior quarterback Ethan Stovall who has a quarterback rating of 143.5 (158.3 is considered a perfect passer rating), has passed for 17 touchdowns, and has thrown just 3 interceptions. His longest completed pass this season was 99 yards. Stovall is a quarterback who possesses a big arm, is a threat to run, and, like a lot of the Mansfield players, knows how to win. After evaluating the film of last week’s win at Cedarville, coach Ricky May commented on his team’s performance and the challenge its defense will face against the Mansfield passing game. “They are pretty good offensively. Our secondary was an area that we were decimated by injury early in the year. We lost all four of them (secondary defenders) at Dardanelle. We’ve done better, but yet, the good thing is we should have maybe another member of the secondary back; if we have him back that will make us a little better, and our secondary a little deeper. We have some other guys ready to go too if that doesn’t work. But no doubt, we’ve got to keep them (Mansfield’s receivers) in front of us. Howard, man, he’s fast. I don’t know how fast he is, but he is quick when he gets the ball.”
Stovall is the beneficiary of perhaps the most talented group of receivers in the conference. Senior Layton Howard is a talented receiver that has good speed and can get separation deep on any secondary. He is also an excellent kickoff and punt return specialist. He has blazing speed as evidenced by a kick return for a touchdown in the second round of the 2018 state playoffs at Osceola. Howard has caught 30 passes for 526 yards. He averages 17.5 yards per catch. He is a force on offense, special teams, and in the secondary on defense.
Complimenting Howard at wide receiver is Jaicy Griffin. Griffin, another speed burner who plays both offense and defense, has caught 18 passes for 212 yards. Griffin is very athletic and is a game breaker, both on offense, and in the secondary on defense.
Senior Tyler Holmes completes the talented Mansfield receiver unit. Holmes has caught 13 passes for 289 yards. Holmes has excellent hands and has proven his ability to make very difficult catches.
The Mansfield rushing attack is led by senior Will Meadows. Meadows has rushed for 178 yards on 24 carries. He averages 7.4 yards per carry. Isaac Cothran, son of head coach Tim Cothran, provides good shortage yards in the backfield, as well as being a stalwart on the defensive line. Cothran has ran for 52 yards on 15 attempts. He averages 3.5 yards per carry, usually in short yardage and goal line situations.
Altogether, the Mansfield offense has accounted for 1,274 yards passing, 17 touchdowns passing, and just 3 interceptions. Rushing, they have ran for 571 yards and have rushed for 12 touchdowns.
Mansfield has fumbled 8 times and lost 6 of them. The Red Tigers average 480 all purpose yards per game.
Defensively, Mansfield has 8 fumble recoveries and forced 4 fumbles. They also have 3 blocked punts. Junior Randall Claude has two fumble recoveries and a blocked punt on the year.
As it is well known at this point, Charleston began the season with a large number of injuries as well as facing a murderous non-conference schedule that was played entirely away from Alumni Stadium. Since that time, Charleston has become stronger as their injured players have returned and will continue to return with this week’s game. In assessing last week’s win at Cedarville, coach Ricky May said, “We had a player here or there out of position on most of their bigger runs, but other than that, they (Charleston) played pretty well.”
The Tigers offensive and defensive line play, along with running back Breckon Ketter and quarterback Brayden Ross have been the strengths of the Tigers resurgence over the past two weeks. The Tigers run defense has been a physical force all season. The secondary struggled during the first month due to injuries, but has become much improved with the return of such players as Garrett Rudd. The Charleston defensive secondary will be tested by the Mansfield passing game. The Tigers secondary will have to play the best game of their season so far on Friday night.
Going into week three of the conference season, the standings are:
Booneville 2-0
Charleston 2-0
Cedarville 1-1
Greenland 1-1
Lamar 1-1
Mansfield 1-1
Paris 0-2
West Fork 0-2
This weeks games are:
Mansfield at Charleston
Greenland at Booneville
Paris at Cedarville
West Fork at Lamar
Charleston has remaining games left with Mansfield, Paris, Booneville, West Fork, and Lamar. Mansfield has games left with Charleston, Booneville, Lamar, Cedarville, and Paris. At this point in the season, it appears that the road to a conference championship goes through Booneville. If Charleston can take care of business over the next two weeks, it would set up a huge game at home when Charleston hosts Booneville on October 25. But for now, the Tigers have to place all of their attention on the team that many predicted to win the conference, the Mansfield Tigers.
Charleston, by virtual of their head-to-head wins over Greenland and Cedarville, are not only a game ahead of the two Pirates teams, but have a tie breaker advantage by virtual of their wins over each school. A Charleston win over Mansfield would give them a two game lead over a very dangerous Mansfield team, as well as any increased lead they would have over the rest of the field, depending on the outcome of the other conference games. A Mansfield win over Charleston would vault the Red Tigers into a tie for at least second place in the conference, and perhaps into a tie for the lead in the loss column, depending on the outcome of the Booneville game. Mansfield would also have a tie breaker advantage over Charleston by virtual of a head-to-head win. It is easy to see that the stakes increase each week as the conference teams play each other.
It is impossible to say at this point in the season how many conference wins a team would need to get into the playoffs. Five teams will qualify. With two conference wins, Charleston possibly needs two to three more victories. Of course, the more games the Tigers win, the better the seed in the state playoffs. It could be possible for the Tigers to host a first round playoff game as a third or higher seed, as Mansfield did in 2018 as a three seed.
The games in October will tell which teams will play games they will remember in November. With only five teams eligible for the playoffs from a conference who, at this point has six contenders, a good team is going to miss the playoffs.Mansfield is a big game for us Friday night. That’s another one that if you are head-to-head with would be a really good situation for you (winning head-to-head against Mansfield and owning the tie breaker).” For the players and coaches, the pressure will increase with each week. For the fans, enjoy the great football! Coach May wants everyone, players, fans, patrons, to keep believing in this team. “Keep believing and keep playing and good things will happen!”
The Mansfield vs. Charleston game should be a classic. Don’t forget to bring a light jacket; fall will be in the air Friday night!
On Saturday evening, October 5 classic and muscle cars, trucks and even motorcycles packed out the main street of Mansfield.
The inaugural car show and cruise night was sponsored by the Mansfield Chamber of Commerce. The event, which kicked off at 3 p.m., provided fun for all ages. Activities included a bounce around and dunking booth. Also available, vendors selling a variety of food and handmade items.
Emcee Travis Pettus kept the energy up with great music and lively announcements, leading the event with the National Anthem and prayer.
Mansfield’s Chamber of Commerce President Mike Gipson expressed his gratitude to all who helped make the event such a success. Those included the Mansfield junior and senior high volleyball teams and Coaches McKay and Pyles for serving as the event’s judges and manning the dunking booth. Also, Lisa Buckley for the use of the bounce around, the Hayslip family, Karen Gipson, MHS Homecoming Queen Delilah McKusker, Michael and Jennifer Pitts, Police Chief Wayne Robb, Fire Chief Mike Smith and Angela Byers. Merchants who contributed included 71 Express, Ducks Body Shop, Heartland Pharmacy, Amy and Shawn Silvey, Cherokee Tire, Rice Furniture, Furr Babies Grooming, Jamie Johnson and Chambers Bank.
While attendees couldn’t believe this was the town’s “first,” it certainly looks to be an event that will continue to grow, year after year. Mansfield resident Carla Silvey said “how neat to see a car cruise in Mansfield! Mansfield is a great little town and I appreciate everyone who worked so hard putting this car show and cruise together for our town. With this kind of turnout we may have to make more room for the next one!”
After the awards were handed out, and night fell, the cruise was on. From the old to the young, the smiles were proof that memories were made!
Coming soon, a complete list of winners in each category!
