YOUTH CROSS COUNTRY

COURTESY Belmont places three in the top five at Bobcat Classic The Belmont cross country team ran two races this weekend. The Knights ran at the Bobcat Classic on Saturday in Gainesville. Deven Couey, Tanner Westover and Timmy Todd ran in the Boys JV 5k race. Reese Todd placed third in the Girls JV race, with Vanessa Todd in fourth and Kendall Todd in fifth. SMITH Continued From 1B game if he hadn’t gotten hurt. His ankle sprain was so bad he also missed the first couple of weeks of basketball season. “I’m thankful I have another year so I can go out there and show what I can do against those guys,” Smith said. “And I’m going to finish the game Friday and if we see them again in the playoffs, I’m going to finish that game too.” Smith isn’t worried about getting hurt again. He’s over it and his numbers have illustrated so through the first six games of the season, where Smith has completed 61 percent of his passes for 1,460 yards and 13 touchdowns. “I think his mindset is more of ‘I want to finish the game and have a great game,’ just like each one of them,” Columbia coach Brian Allen said. “But I don’t think for a second his mindset is thinking about a bad hit, a late hit, a fluke play where he’s try- ing to get out of the pocket and he hurts his foot or ankle. I don’t think for a second he’s thinking that.” If getting knocked out of both meetings last sea- son wasn’t fuel enough for Smith, Lee’s coaching staff has apparently given him a little bit more. Smith says he’s heard from his own coaches that the Generals have been talking trash, even claiming Smith isn’t the same player he used to be because he isn’t running as much as he did a year ago.
