As he grew taller, his interest became more centered on basketball. After one year of football at Catholic, Mark realized that Head Coach Jim Oddo wasn’t looking for a 6’7” quarterback to run his offense, so he dedicated himself to basketball. The year round training has certainly paid off as Mark has been a force for the Cougars early this season. His large frame combined with a deadly outside shot allows Mark the opportunity to score 20 points on any given night and also pick up 8-10 rebounds with a couple of assists and blocked shots. His numbers and achieve- ments come without the extra flare or unsportsmanlike gestures. Mark does his job and maintains a high level of professionalism on the court. His game is straight- laced with no room for showboating on the court. That workmanlike attitude will prove very attractive to col- BASKETBALL lege coaches over the next year. The hard work has been very helpful for Mark to CAMP # 1 raise his game to another level. “I have really focused on getting better in the paint.

  • The Growth of the Nascar Industry in Charlotte, North Carolina, 1949-2000
    CITY OF RACERS: THE GROWTH OF THE NASCAR INDUSTRY IN CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA, 1949-2000 by Bryan Paul Gable A thesis submitted to the faculty of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Charlotte 2018 Approved by: ______________________________ Dr. Mark Wilson ______________________________ Dr. Aaron Shapiro ______________________________ Dr. Ritika Prasad ii ©2018 Bryan Paul Gable ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iii ABSTRACT BRYAN PAUL GABLE. City of Racers: The Growth of the NASCAR Industry in Charlotte, North Carolina, 1949-2000. (Under the direction of Dr. Mark Wilson) This study explores the development of the NASCAR industry in the city of Charlotte and its surrounding region through the second half of the twentieth century. I argue that NASCAR and Charlotte were seeking the same goals in the late twentieth century: greater national prominence and a strong relationship with corporate America. As a result, NASCAR found a technological and cultural home in Charlotte by proving its worth as a desirable and highly profitable industry. I explain how Charlotte Motor Speedway emerged from bankruptcy and became an exemplary venue for NASCAR by solidifying its reputation as the showplace of NASCAR. I also describe the culture of specialization that the Holman-Moody race team fostered in Charlotte. Later generations of Charlotte NASCAR teams would continue to embrace innovative methods for managing a race team. Finally, I discuss Charlotte’s importance as a growing urban center of the Piedmont and NASCAR’s contributions to building Charlotte’s regional identity. iv DEDICATION For my grandfather, who taught me that academic excellence is its own reward.

    South Charlotte Sports Report “HOMETOWN TEAMS ... HOMETOWN KIDS” Volume 13, Issue 10 www.southcharlottesports.com @SCSportsReport November 1, 2018 - FREE KINSEY BARNETT CHEERS FOR VICTORY AT MYERS PARK Myers Park High School senior cheerleader Kinsey Barnett works hard to bring the spirit to Myers Park High School. The daughter of Tom and Tracy Barnett has found great success as a cheerleader after transitioning two years ago from her lifetime sport of gymnastics. In addition to being a top level cheer athlete, Kinsey carries a 4.0 unweighted grade point average in the demanding IB Program at Myers Park. After much thought, Kinsey decided to retire from training at Perfect Balance Training Center Gymnastics in 2017. With an older sister that had found great success as cheerleader on the Mustangs sideline, Kinsey decided cheerleading would become her sport of choice. “As a competitive gymnast for most of my life up until the end of sophomore year, I had never had the opportunity to participate in school activities or sports so having the ability to be on the sidelines cheering on our team is super exciting for me.” With her vast experience in gymnastics, Kinsey was a natural for a flyer position on her team. Kinsey also tries to provide leadership examples to the younger team members. “I am one of many people on the team that enjoy leading our team in any way that we can. I simply want to fulfill whatever position my coach needs me to and be an example to younger girls on the team.” Kinsey has always has a strong desire to succeed in every thing she chooses to participate in.
