Regional Golf, Monday; Regional Track Friday, Saturday
Wildcats’ golfer Carter Lewis is representing Sulphur Springs at the Regional Golf Tournament for Region II in Class 5A Monday (April 23) at the Rockwall Golf and Athletic Club. The tournament runs Monday and Tuesday. Lewis qualified for the regional tournament at the district tournament by shooting a 78 and 85. The Wildcats team finished in third place at district, just one spot away from qualifying.
A fourth Wildcat will be going to the Regional Track Meet being held this Friday and Saturday (April 27-28) at UTA’s Maverick Stadium. At the Area Meet last week, Eli Sellers came in fifth in the 800 meter run after a photo finish and frame by frame comparison showed he missed out on qualifying by .008 of a second. Wildcats Track Coach Matt Young said he had never seen such a slim margin. However one of the qualifiers in the 800-meter run decided he wanted to concentrate on the 1600-meter run at regional so he pulled out of the regional field in the 800-meter run. Sellers, as the alternate, will now go in his place. Coach Young noted that Sellers ran a personal best in that 800-meter run at Area. Other Wildcats to qualify for the Regional Track Meet were Dedric Godbolt in the high jump, Landry Tyson in the 300-meter hurdles and Kylan Wade in the 110-meter hurdles. Tyson replaces Ryan Humphries who qualified with a second place finish in the 300-meter hurdles but has decided to play in a big Wildcats’ baseball game Friday (April 27) rather than run at the Regional Track Meet.

Scudder for Senate Campaign Rebuilds Website After Hacker Warnings
Dallas – The Kendall Scudder for Texas Senate campaign is complying with the FBI’s Internet Crime Center instructions after hacking activity targeted and breached the campaign’s website and domain URL.
In late March, the campaign’s communications director noticed warning messages on Chrome and Firefox browsers which indicated to visitors that “attackers” were attempting to redirect them to a deceptive website pretending to be the campaign website. “My staff immediately took action to find the source of this error, corrected it, and restored access to the site,” Texas Senate, District 2, Democratic Nominee, Kendall Scudder, said.
In mid-April, the campaign was informed by a Google-alert that “hacked content” had again been detected. The campaign webmaster followed instructions on removing fraudulent files.
On Saturday, the campaign communications director saw the same warning message as before and the campaign webmaster performed an extensive search of the server and found fraudulent PHP and TXT files containing references to Russian websites and coding in Russian. The campaign’s website was pulled down Saturday afternoon and will be rebuilt from scratch as soon as possible to ensure the removal of all fraudulent files.
While supporter and donor information is safe, stored separately, and has not been accessed by any third-party, precautionary steps have been taken to protect that information.
“We won’t be sidetracked by anything – whether it’s foreign hackers or our opponent’s domestic dark money. I’ll stand against any attack on democracy and American values,” Scudder said. “Though the timing of this hack is unfortunate, we are fully cooperating with all ongoing investigations. During the rest of our listening ‘Texas Values Tour’ supporters and interested voters should access our interactive social media accounts.”
