Cosby scores Cooper Era-best 62 points at Unaka in Region 1-1A rout
ELIZABETHTON — Through the first three weeks of the season, the Cosby High School football team’s offensive output was fairly strong, with the Eagles eclipsing 30 points twice and finding success both through the air and on the ground. Friday’s Week 4 contest showed the unit has another gear. In the opening Region 1-1A contest for both teams, Cosby piled up the points in a 62-8 victory at Unaka, setting a new single-game best during the tenure of fourth-year head coach Levi Cooper. The Eagles previously scored 60 on the Rangers in Elizabethton in 2024. Cosby has its third straight 1-0 start to region play and back-to-back wins for the first time on the young season, moving to 3-1 overall. “I thought we came out and executed at a really high level in all three phases,” Cooper said. The Eagles did all of their damage in just the first half, tallying their highest score since a 63-47 win versus Hancock County on Sept. 19, 2014, in Cosby. “It was a really clean half,” Cooper said. “It afforded us the opportunity to play every guy on the roster tonight.

Walters State PT Assistant program earns perfect score
MORRISTOWN — If college programs were graded, Walters State’s Physical Therapist Assistant Program just earned an A+. The program is one of only five physical assistant programs to receive no findings during its reaccreditation process conducted by the Commission on Accreditation of Physical Therapy Education. “I was elated when I received the news,” said Marisa Miller, director of the Physical Therapist Assistant Program. “The faculty in this program have worked so hard during the past three years to make sure that our curriculum aligned with our learning objectives. We know that our students are ready to work as physical therapist assistants when they graduate.” Miller added that the reaccreditation shows that the program meets or exceeds every standard, wisely utilizes all available resources, and maintains positive and effective partnerships with clinical teaching sites. The program began in 1990 as health providers throughout the college’s service area expressed a growing need for physical therapist assistants. Physical therapist assistants (PTAs) administer treatments and provide patient care, working under a licensed physical therapist. PTAs work with all ages and are needed in a variety of health care settings, including hospitals, long-term care facilities, and home health agencies. The Department of Labor expects the
