CEDAR CREEK LAKE–The Cedar Creek Powerboat Association is looking for new members to meet during the club’s annual membership drive.
The club will meet from noon until 3 p.m. Saturday, March 15, at Gater’s Sports Bar & Grill, 623 Gun Barrel Lane in Gun Barrel City.
The Cedar Creek Powerboat Association formed in late 2006 to serve the Cedar Creek Reservoir powerboating community, promoting safe, enjoyable family powerboating, while supporting voluntary organizations in the community.
Association members supported the local Christmas Angel Program last Christmas, helping seven children receive Christmas gifts, as well as providing Christmas dinner for the families.
Club members will have several boats on display at Gater’s, and will be there to answer any question you might have about the organization.
If you enjoy good times on the lake and meeting really great people with the passion for powerboating, come by Gater’s Saturday, visit the club’s website at www.cedarcreekpa.org,  or call (903) 489-3110.
 

EHS girls second at Kaufman relays
Monitor Staff Reports
KAUFMAN–Eustace High School’s girls varsity track team took second place and the Bulldog boys were in the hunt at the annual Lion Relays at Kaufman High School Friday.
Although there was abundant sunshine as the meet opened, the wind chill was in the low 20s, and all runners stayed bundled up until the last possible moment. After the sun went down, competitors and the handful of spectators saw a bit of snow waft down from a cloudy sky as the wind chill dropped into the teens.

’Jackets double up Lovejoy, 6-2, 16-0
Monitor Staff Reports
KEMP–Kemp’s Yellowjackets swept a doubleheader from the Lovejoy Leopards Saturday.
A scheduled tournament in Waco was cancelled by bad weather.
Now 9-3 on the season, the ’Jackets were scheduled to visit Caddo Mills Tuesday, returning home to host the Quinlan Ford Panthers at 6 p.m. Friday, March 14.
The ’Jackets will open District 13-3A baseball play at home Tuesday, March 18, against the Eustace Bulldogs, and will visit Crandall Thursday, March 20.
At home against the District 9-3A Leopards, the ’Jackets opened with a 6-2 win, and then blew out the Leopards 16-0 in the nightcap.
Nick Sallings started on the mound and got the win in game one, striking out seven of the nine batters he faced.
Dudley Chambers gave up two runs and struck out four Leopards in four innings of relief.
“You could tell from the first inning of the first game we were a little rusty,” new coach Cody Ross reported.
Jeremy Bush went 3-for-3 with two RBIs to pace the ’Jackets hitting. Josh Carr went 1-for-3 with a double and two RBIs as well.
In the second game, Mikie Scruggs started and went the distance in a five-inning contest. Scruggs gave up only three hits while striking out six and issuing only one walk.
All but one Yellowjacket starter had a hit in the second game. Matt Carr went 3-for-3 with an off-the-wall double that brought in two runs.
Cody Kuehn had two hits and three RBIs, including his first home run of the year. Josh Carr, Chambers and Kevin Betz all had two hits each for the ’Jackets.
“The second game was a different story – we came out swinging and did some good things,” Ross said. “The most impressive thing was our defense. We played error-free baseball – that tells me we’re getting better.”
