Cosby runs out of bullets in 54-46 shootout loss to Whitwell
COSBY — Firepower on offense was never in short supply for the Cosby High School football team this season. The second round of the postseason was no different. The Eagles scored seven touchdowns in a TSSAA 1A state playoff tilt with Whitwell, but it wasn’t quite enough as the visiting Tigers scored a 54-46 victory on Friday night at Virgil Ball Stadium to advance to the quarterfinals, when they’ll visit Coalfield on Nov. 20. In Friday’s contest, the teams found the end zone an equal amount of times, but Whitwell went 6 for 7 on two-point conversion tries while Cosby was successful just twice.

At 30, Summer Cassidy Decided It Was Time to Return to the Classroom
When Summer Cassidy graduated from high school at 18, she didn't know she would eventually find her calling working with children and families. She certainly didn't know that, 12 years later, pursuing that calling would take her back to the classroom. Cassidy spent seven years as an assistant director at the Boys & Girls Club before taking a position as a receptionist at Jefferson Middle School. The experiences helped her realize how much she valued working directly with students and supporting families. As she learned more about the role school counselors play in students' lives, Cassidy began thinking about a new career. “I was 30 years old when I shared this goal with my husband, and with his encouragement and the wonderful things I had heard from family and friends about Walters State, I knew it was the perfect place to begin this new chapter in my life,” Cassidy said. Returning to College at 30 Starting college after more than a decade away from the classroom was intimidating. Cassidy was working full time. She hadn't been a student since graduating high school. Now, she had to figure out how to balance a career, coursework and the responsibilities of everyday life.
