Stacked, which had bagel sandwich restaurants at 2835 Devine St. in Columbia and 5580 Sunset Blvd. in Lexington, announced in Thursday posts on social media that both locations have closed. The locations are also marked a permanently closed on Google. “That’s a wrap,” Stacked said on Instagram. “After countless bagels, wraps, salads and memories made, both Stacked locations have officially closed their doors. To everyone who walked through our doors, shared a meal with us, brought a friend or made Stacked part of their daily routine, thank you. Your love and support have meant more to us than we can put into words.” The two Midlands storefronts opened a few years ago as Sully’s Steamers bagel sandwich locations.

They also had salads and other offerings. “While this chapter has come to an end, we will always be grateful for the memories made, the friendships formed and the

How Mid-Carolina football went from being a surprise team to state title contender

The sounds of Bon Jovi’s “Blaze of Glory” and songs from AC/DC blared from speakers Monday on the Mid-Carolina practice field. That field, tucked behind the school located in Newberry County a few miles off Interstate 26, was filled with Mid-Carolina football players and coaches getting ready for their playoff opener. The Rebels have been one of the surprise stories in the Midlands and the entire state this season. Mid-Carolina completed a 10-0 regular season and won its first outright region title since 1991 after beating rival Newberry two weeks ago. Prior to this season, M-C hadn’t had a winning season since 2014 or won 10 games in a season since 2010. Mid-Carolina had a bye last week and is the No. 1 seed in the Class 2A Upper State bracket. The Rebels will host Mountain View Prep, the third-year public charter school out of Spartanburg, in the second round of the playoffs on Friday. The Rebels are looking for their first playoff win in 16 years. “It really has been a perfect storm,” M-C coach Jody Haltiwanger said. “We’ve got a good group of seniors, great assistant coaches. It all just came together. “I knew we had some experience.

What Gamecocks' first SEC availability report says about LaNorris Sellers' status

As expected: No. 17 South Carolina listed quarterback LaNorris Sellers in its first availability report ahead of Saturday’s matchup against Arkansas. After injuring his ankle during the Gamecocks’ 17-9 win over Texas A&M last week, Sellers is designated as questionable three days out from USC’s game in Fayetteville. Receivers Nyck Harbor and Nitro Tuggle and defensive back J’Zavien Currence also were listed as questionable. Sellers got tests done on his ankle Sunday night and South Carolina coach Shane Beamer said “everything looked good,” giving him the confidence to say, “We fully expect him to play (against Arkansas).” In the second quarter of Saturday’s win over the Aggies, a Texas A&M defender landed on Sellers’ left ankle as he sacked the Gamecocks’ quarterback. Sellers left the game and immediately got X-rays inside Williams-Brice Stadium. When those came back negative, meaning there was no break, it allowed Sellers to continue playing. Early in the second half, it was clear he was struggling to manage the pain. He wasn’t stepping into throws. He consistently looked down at his ankle after bad throws. He seemed unsure of how much the ankle could take. Eventually, though, the injury’s affects weren’t showing themselves as much, which
