What do you call it when the Baker Gators or Lady Gators hold a celebration for a state championship?
Baker athletic director said tradition, which is true as the Lady Gator volleyball team’s state championship is the seventh team title in school history. It might also be called a “Gatorbration.”
The Crestview football team traveled to Escambia High School on Thursday for a Kickoff Classic that was more a situational scrimmage than a practice game.
Each team had the same number of plays on offense. Each possession started from the same designated spot on the field at the start of the alternating possessions.
There is winning. There is winning big. And then there is what the Crestview Lady Bulldog softball team did to Washington on Wednesday.
To say Crestview made short work of the Lady Wildcats would be an understatement. It took the Lady Bulldogs just two-and-a-half innings to dispose of Washington.
In all likelihood, none of the Baker Gator baseball players will ever have an offer to play professional baseball. Their childhood dreams of playing for a favorite Major League team will end with graduation.
When swimming with the sharks it’s probably wise to use shark repellent.
The Crestview High School Lady Bulldogs hosted the Ponte Vedra Lady Sharks in the Region 1 Class 6A quarterfinals on Thursday. The Lady Bulldogs brought their normal repellent against the Lady Sharks that worked so well against Eagles, Panthers and Tigers, a relentless defense.
Crestview had yet to score almost three-and-a-half minutes into Thursday’s boys basketball game with Pensacola High.
The Tigers weren’t exactly setting the court on fire either. A layup by Jonah Carter gave PHS a 2-0 lead.
Ask any Crestview High School fan and they will tell you the only thing better than beating Niceville once in a season is beating the Eagles twice in the same year.
The Lady Bulldog basketball team did just that completing the regular season sweep of the Lady Eagles with a 72-66 win on Thursday at the Crestview gym. Crestview defeated Niceville 62-48 before the Christmas break.
When Baker School athletic director Matt Brunson stepped down as the Gator football coach last spring he said he might one day return to the sidelines one day.
That day came sooner than later for Brunson. Brunson announced on his Twitter account early Wednesday morning that he has accepted the head football coach and athletic director position at Opp High School in Ala.
The unlikely story of Kayleb Wagner took the next step forward on Wednesday when the Baker School running back signed a scholarship to play football at Division I Southern Illinois University.
He becomes the first Baker football player to sign with a Division I school since Montae Barto signed with Troy University prior to the 2016 season.
