PICKENS COUNTY — The community’s help is needed in finding a missing runaway from Easley.
Shawn Tyler Banks, 15, was last seen at his parents’ home on Saluda Dam Road at 6:30 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 13, according to a release from the Pickens County Sheriff’s Office.
Banks is described as 6 feet tall and 270 pounds with brown hair and hazel eyes. He was wearing a light-colored shirt, blue jeans and white tennis shoes. He was carrying a backpack and had a PlayStation 2 gaming system with him, according to the release.

CENTRAL — Disappointed. That word, more than any, best described the outcome of the Daniel Lions’ 14-0 loss to region leader Belton-Honea Path last Friday night.
Not many thought the Lions could hang with the hard hitting Bears, but hang they did. Daniel (4-4, 0-2 Region I-4A) put together a great effort on defense and kept the game close all night. But with an offense that just could not sustain a drive all evening, the Lions were shut out for the first time this season.

EASLEY — Easley’s 3-5 overall record could be considered deceiving if it were not for a rough two-game stand against teams from the city of Anderson.
Close losses to Daniel, Seneca and Belton-Honea Path showed a team that was on the verge of finding its way after the season’s first six games.

ABBEVILLE — A glance at the final score shows a similar outcome to past games between Liberty and Abbeville — a blowout win for the Panthers.
Abbeville rolled to a 31-0 victory to open region play for both teams on Friday night, but it was a hard-fought game that got out of hand thanks to costly injuries for the visitors.

PICKENS — Wren was trying to keep rolling in Region I-4A play Friday night. Pickens was just trying to get going after not scoring a touchdown in 10 quarters.
Both happened, sort of, on a night where the moon was nearly full. Wren took advantage of four lost fumbles by the Blue Flame to improve to 3-0 in region play with a 54-13 win.

CLEMSON — In a split second, Death Valley went from despair to elation — a gift from the football gods.
A missed 33-yard field goal by North Carolina State with the game tied and two seconds left in regulation sent Saturday’s game between the Wolfpack and No. 3 Clemson to overtime. A touchdown catch by Artavis Scott on the opening overtime drive and an interception by Marcus Edmond on N.C. State’s first overtime play sealed the deal.
The Tigers were given new life and used it to win a thriller at Memorial Stadium.
