Ninety Six Primary IB program

First graders at Ninety Six Primary kicked off their first IB unit, Who We Are in Place and Time, by allowing first graders to dress up as “stars”  and the special persons they are.  Students and staff members enjoyed this activity, and it was an excellent way to introduce our first IB unit.  For more information concerning the Ninety Six Primary IB program, please contact the school.

Chris Liner By BEN BREINER NINETY SIX - Forgive Ninety Six High School football coach Chris Liner for not sugarcoating things. His team is coming off an ugly home loss to Emerald to open the season and tonight faces a Broome team looking to quickly rebuild under first-year coach Jet Turner. When the teams kick off at 7:30 at Ninety Six's Wilson-Campbell Stadium, the Wildcats will face the same run-heavy Wing-T offense Turner ran at Ware Shoals and Clover, which could be a problem if they tackle like they did against the Vikings. "Obviously last week, we stunk," Liner said. "But you can't live in the past. This week, we hope to be a heck of a lot better and next week, and we want to be playing great football by the end of the year." Ninety Six (0-1 overall) gave up 326 rushing yards on 8.8 yards per carry against Emerald. Liner said early in the week safety/wide receiver Marquise Williams hurt his knee in the game and middle linebacker Eddie Emery burned his foot during the weekend. This Broome team is only in its first few games with Turner, but has already shown it's adept at running the ball in a loss to Chesnee and shutout win against Landrum. Wingbacks Eli Gist and Cameron Dawkins have taken the main ball-carrying duties with 385 yards and three touchdowns in the first two games. Quarterback Corey Bennett coordinates the offense. Liner said he was impressed by the discipline and sound tackling of the Centurions 3-5 defense, anchored by linebacker Bauveir Jackson and free safety Pat Foster.

Wildcats defeat Hornets

8/31/2012 12:28:00 AM Wildcats defeat Hornets Slow start doesn't hamper Ninety Six

Beth Miller By CHENG SIO WARE SHOALS - With her team trailing early, Ninety Six High School volleyball coach Beth Miller got up off the bench, walked toward the sideline and seemed destined to call a timeout - or at least shout instructions to her players. Instead, Miller did nothing and let her Wildcats play. Eventually, Ninety Six erased a six-point deficit to win the first set en route to a three-set sweep against Ware Shoals 25- 20, 25-5, 25-8 on the road Thursday. "I'm trying to see if they can get themselves out of a hole," Miller said. "We're growing and I'm trying to coach them up. It's like I told them on a timeout, 'I want to see you make things happen instead of what they are doing.' Just trying to see if they can grow up and put their big-girl panties on and pull themselves out of a hole." Ware Shoals broke a 4-all tie with eight of the next 10 points, which nearly prompted Miller to take action. But then, the Wildcats (2-0 overall) notched three consecutive points, capped off by a kill from Shyann Luster, to force Ware Shoals coach Patricia Wirszyla to call a timeout. Ninety Six, later, recorded nine of the final 10 points to claim the first set. "We just weren't off the bus yet, we were still tired," Ninety Six's Anna Grace Bryant said of the slow start. "We weren't very, like, relax, we're just all uptight and we weren't ready to play. But then we got ready to play." SEE MORE IN FRIDAY'S INDEX-JOURNAL. www.indexjournal.com
