Briana Forte, a senior at the Baker School, officially signed with Florida Gateway College to play golf on May 16.
Florida Gateway College is an NJCAA school and is in Lake City.
What a year it has been around the north end of the county for local sports.
There have been so many great memories during the last school year.
It was a sight to see at Jack Foster Stadium, the home of the Crestview Bulldogs, on May 15.
There was real, live football for fans to enjoy.
Baker’s Mckenzie McGraw made her college decision official on May 15, as she signed with Bishop State in a ceremony at the school.
McGraw becomes the sixth member of the 2023 state championship volleyball team to sign to play collegiately.
For as long as he can remember, Sean Johns has been playing football.
Johns grew up around the game of football as his brother, grandpa and dad played the game as well.
The Laurel Hill boys basketball program made strides in 2024.
Even though they were a younger team, they were competitive and played better than their record showed.
This past season set a strong foundation for the Laurel Hill girls basketball program.
They went 13-8 under head coach, Carl Henry, and advanced to the district semifinals.
Aiyana Dixon had never thrown the shot put before.
She did not even know that Laurel Hill was going to have a track program until this past winter.
Baker and Laurel Hill had athletes compete at the 1A state track meet last Saturday at the University of North Florida in Jacksonville.
Baker’s William Sloan had the best finish of the day, taking second in the javelin with a throw of 175 feet.
We are just a few weeks away from the end of the school year.
To all those student-athletes around the area, congratulations.
