The Baker Gators track and field team has been on the road all season with the construction of their new football field keeping them from hosting home meets.


This didn’t stop the Gators from competing at the highest level, and they proved that this past Tuesday at the District 1-1A track meet in Jay.

The Laurel Hill Hoboes set two goals before the start of the baseball season. One, beat Paxton, and two win a district championship.


The Hoboes accomplished one of those goals, but the district championship was put on hold after a 17-2 loss to Central in the opening round of the tournament.

The Crestview beach volleyball team had their hands full this past Tuesday as they hosted top district opponent Gulf Breeze. The two teams last met a month ago on March 12, with Gulf Breeze winning 5-0.


The Bulldogs put up more of a fight this time around, but the Dolphins proved why they’re number one with a 4-1 victory over Crestview.

The Crestview tennis team has competed hard all season long preparing for the District 1-3A tournament.


That hard work paid off as the Crestview girls’ tennis team qualified for Regionals for the first time in Crestview High School history.

It was a district softball rematch between Baker and Central last Monday, with the Gators looking to sweep the third place Jaguars.


Baker’s offense put on a performance, but it wasn’t enough to keep Central from coming back to win 12-10.

“It’s been 19-years since we beat that team. I mean, I don’t think any of these girls were alive at all since the last time we won. So, that’s quite an accomplishment,” assistant coach Jeff Parker said.

The Laurel Hill baseball team hosted the Pleasant Home Eagles in their final game of the regular season last Friday.


A 15-3 victory brought the Hoboes their fifth win in their last six games, but it also brought the realization that their regular season had come to an end.

The Laurel Hill softball team hosted the Booker T. Washington Wildcats last Friday.


After a major 19-3 loss to Bethlehem the night before, the Hoboes flipped the score in their favor, beating Booker T. 19-4.

Crestview’s tennis team wrapped up its regular season last week.


The Bulldogs hosted district leader, Gulf Breeze, last Monday before finishing strong on Thursday against Walton.

The Crestview baseball team had a long 25-game spring season. The Bulldogs started the season with four straight wins but turned cold at the end winning only one of their last five.


In their final game of the regular season, Crestview hosted the Hebron Christian Academy Lions out of Georgia. A close game soon got out of hand as the Bulldogs lost 7-2.
