2 Jailed Following Alleged Disturbance Involving Weapons, 1 Arrested Following Bar Disturbance
Three men were arrested on intoxication charges following unrelated disturbances, one alleged to have occurred at a rural address and another at a Sulphur Springs bar, according to arrest reports.
At about 11:20 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 1, Sulphur Springs Police were dispatched to Caps and Flasks, where they were requested to conduct a walk-through because a few customers were said to be getting out of hand, police alleged in arrest reports.
Upon arriving at and watching the crowd the North Davis Street business, police alleged a man appeared to storm toward another person who was walking away from him. Several people were alleged to be physically holding the man away from the person who was walking away from him.
When officers contacted the man to ask what was going on, they reported the 32-year-old Sulphur Springs man had slurred speech, was very unsteady on feet and had a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage emitting from him. The officer, in arrest reports, alleged the man “did not make any sense when speaking with Officer. It was apparent he was highly intoxicated.” Thus, the man was jailed for public intoxication. He remained in the county jail late Saturday morning on the charge, according to jail reports.
The two other arrests stem from an unrelated complaint of a disturbance involving weapons and possible assault on County Road 2382.
Around midnight Friday on FM 3019, north of County Road 2381 south, authorities stopped a black Ford Expedition which reportedly matched the description of the vehicle in which a suspect in the disturbance reportedly left.
The 36-year-old Pickton man driving displayed numerous indicators of intoxication, and during a roadside interview admitted to consuming six beers, Texas Department of Public Safety Trooper Arturo Ugalde alleged in arrest reports. He allegedly showed clues of intoxication during standard field sobriety tests and was taken into custody for driving while intoxicated. The Pickton man asked that his SUV be released to his girlfriend and officers complied with his request, according to arrest reports. He remained in the county jail late Saturday morning, according to jail reports.
The passenger, a 37-year-old Saltillo man, was identified as the suspect in the disturbance. Alcohol was reportedly smelled on the Saltillo man, who officer deemed to be “impaired to the point of him being a danger to himself and others.” He was arrested at 1:04 a.m. Nov. 2 for public intoxication and taken to jail. At the jail the man was noted to have visible injuries on his head and neck, which were documented, Hopkins County Sheriff’s Deputy Kevin Lester alleged in arrest reports.
Upon arrival at the county jail, the Pickton driver allegedly tested 0.172 and 0.191, more than twice the legal 0.08 limit for blood-alcohol content, resulting in him being charged with DWI with a blood-alcohol content of more than 0.15, Ugalde alleged in arrest reports. He remained in Hopkins County jail late Saturday morning; bond was set at $2,000 on the Class A misdemeanor DWI charge, according to jail reports.
Wildcats Football Lead Vanishes in Fourth Quarter
For three quarters the Wildcats Football Team held a lead at Kaufman only to see the Lions score on a fourth quarter pass to take their first lead of the game on their way to a 28-24 district win at Lions Stadium in Kaufman Friday night. The Wildcats dominated most of the first half as they built a 15-0 lead. On their first drive the Wildcats bogged down near the Lions’ end zone and Brandon Zavala was called on to kick a 33 yard field goal to give the Wildcats an early 3-0 lead. On Kaufman’s first drive disaster struck from punt formation. The Lions’ punter was unable to handle a snap and the Wildcats tackled the punter at the Kaufman 11 yard line. The Wildcats covered 11 yards in just a few plays with back Caden Davis scoring the touchdown from six yards out. The Wildcats extra point was no good but the Wildcats led 9-0 with 7:07 left in the second quarter. The score remained 9-0 after one quarter of play. In the second quarter, the Wildcats took advantage of a turnover to score again. Sophomore cornerback Dominique Sims intercepted a Lion’s pass and returned it about 20 yards. The Wildcats then went 40 yards for another score. Davis found the end zone again on a beautiful weaving run through the Lions’ defense from 20 yards out. Again the Wildcats extra point was no good but the Wildcats led 15-0 with 5:50 left in the second quarter. Racing the clock, the Lions got into the end zone in the final minute of the half. The Lions used a 31 yard pass and run to score with just :52 left in the second quarter. With a successful extra point kick, the Lions reduced the deficit to 15-7 and that was the halftime score. A wild third quarter produced a flurry of scores. The Wildcats opened the third quarter with an onside kick attempt that the Lions’ aggressively returned for a touchdown. That reduced the Wildcats lead to 15-13. As Kaufman went for two to try and tie the score, Lions’ quarterback Billy Pullen attempted a pass that was intercepted by Chase Haney. Haney broke a tackle and then outraced all the Lions to the end zone with give the Wildcats two points. The Wildcats led 17-13 with only six seconds gone in the third quarter. The Wildcats answered the Kaufman touchdown with a touchdown drive of their own. Da’Korian Choc Sims scored on a 1 yard run. The Wildcats extra point kick was good and their lead went back up to 24-13. Kaufman scored a very short time later with lightning quickness. Back Raikyviun Shaw ran 58 yards for a touchdown. Kaufman added two points after touchdown with a Pullen pass to receiver Charleston Miller and the Wildcats lead was only 24-21 with 8:48 left in the third quarter. The Wildcats appeared on the verge of matching the Lions’ score but a Wildcats’ pass was intercepted on the goal line by Lions’ defensive back Darius McGee. Still the Wildcats were clinging to a 3 point lead at 24-21 after three quarters. Kaufman took their first lead of the game early in the fourth quarter. Lions quarterback Pullen floated a long pass toward the end zone. A Wildcats defender appeared to be in position to knock it down but it ended in the hands of Lions’ receiver Kyndall Trudeau to complete a 45 yard touchdown pass. The Lions had the lead at 28-24 but still 10:27 remained in the fourth quarter. The Wildcats were unable to generate any additional points and Kaufman dominated possession in the fourth quarter taking lots of time off of the clock. The clock ran out on the Wildcats as a desperation drive in the games final seconds with no time outs ended at around midfield. Kaufman took their Senior Night football game over the Wildcats, 28-24. The Wildcats used senior quarterback Noe Ponce the entire game as he filled in for injured junior quarterback Kaden Wallace. Kaufman improved to 2-5 in district play and 2-7 overall.

#5 Ranked Wildcats Basketball Team Began Practice Wednesday
There perhaps was no one happier at Sulphur Springs High School Wednesday than Wildcats Basketball Coach Clark Cipoletta. Per UIL rules, Wednesday (October 30) was the first day for practice for the #5 ranked Class 5A Wildcats Basketball Team. Coach Cipoletta says he actually enjoys practices more than games because he says he loves to teach basketball. He says returning players have been working on their games since last March when the Wildcats were eliminated at the State Basketball Tournament. There were some big sneakers left behind in the Wildcats locker room. Coach Cipoletta has to replace Keaston Willis, the school’s all time leading scorer, Xavier Cork, a 6-9 post player who was the District MVP last year, Jeremiah Roland, the District’s Defensive MVP, and three point marksman Deuce Berry. Coach Cipoletta says the grads can’t be replaced but he says he likes his current group. He says they may be the best team he’s ever had at sharing the basketball. He says the current group may not be as long or big but he says they will find a way to apply pressure. Coach Cipoletta says they might look different than last year’s team but he says he feels good going into the season. Returnees include 6-5 Day Day Hall and 6-7 Cameron Kahn, players that Coach Cip calls two of the best in all of Class 6A and 5A high school basketball. Sharpshooter Grayson McClure returns. Coach Cipoletta says McClure also thrives as a 95% player, one who does all the little things in the 95% of the time when he doesn’t have the ball. Boo Wilkerson, last year’s District Newcomer of the Year, is back and Coach Cipoletta feels he will be a very special player. Lamodrick Johnson also returns and Coach Cipoletta says Johnson may be his first true point guard. Coach Cipoletta can hardly contain his excitement over the potential for sophomore Justin Haire, now listed as 6-7. Coach Cipoletta says Haire has not only gotten taller but he has also been attacking the boards and playing above the rim. Others are expected to make their case to make the varsity during practices and upcoming scrimmage games. The Wildcats first scrimmage will be at McKinney Boyd on November 9. They will also scrimmage Frisco Liberty there. On November 12 the Wildcats will have their second and final scrimmage at Mesquite Poteet. The Wildcats again open the regular season on Saturday, November 16 at North Crowley at the Cowtown Showdown against Decatur, ranked #7 in Class 4A. Decatur lost only one player off of a state semifinal team. The Wildcats have their home opener on November 19 against Pleasant Grove. Buckle up and hope for another wild and wonderful ride by the Wildcats Basketball Team.

The Wildcats Football Team plays their next to last district game of the season on this game day Friday (November 1) and they are going to a place they may have never been to before, Kaufman’s Lions’ Stadium. Wildcats Football Coach Greg Owens remembers the stadium from his days playing there as Lindale’s head football coach. A journey back into Wildcats Football records as far as 1956 when Sulphur Springs went into Class 2A found no games at all between the two schools. This has been a disappointing season for both of these teams. They even have identical records: 1-5 in district play and tied for sixth place with Forney and 1-7 for the season. The Wildcats have a win over Forney while Kaufman won against Terrell. Needless to say, two hungry teams will be playing Friday. The Kaufman Head Coach is Jeramy Burleson, in his fourth year. He was an assistant and offensive coordinator at Kaufman for two years before being promoted to head coach. The Wildcats Head Football Coach is Greg Owens, in his 14th year at his alma mater. It should be a very competitive game. KSST Radio will bring you the Wildcats at Kaufman with streaming audio. The game will also be videotaped for replay later on Channel 18 on Suddenlink Cable.
The Lady Cats Volleyball Team is also playing on this Friday game day. They will play a playoff warm up game against Paris in the Main Gym at Sulphur Springs High School beginning at 4:30 p.m. The Lady Cats season record is 22-17. The Lady Cats are the fourth place district seed for the playoffs and the Lady Cats will play District 16-5A champion Hallsville in a bi-district matcn Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. in Wagstaff Gym on the campus of Tyler Junior College. Hallsville has a season record of 30-12.
