Sometimes the best surprise is no surprise. That was the case Tuesday night when the Baker Lady Gators volleyball team took on Central in the District 1-1A tournament semifinal at Jay.

It has been said the recipe for a perfect Homecoming football game is a brisk fall night, a radiant queen and an outmatched opponent.
Ava Lightfoot was that radiant queen at Jack Foster Stadium on Friday night as Crestview celebrated Homecoming 2023. As for the brisk fall night, it might be a week away. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, Chiles was not an outmatched opponent.
