Looking on paper at how the Crestview football team has done this year and comparing it to Friday’s Homecoming opponent, Leon, the Bulldogs should take care of the Lions fairly easily.
Crestview has outscored Leon by 161 points (241-80). The Bulldogs have allowed 118 fewer points (322-204). But as any coach will quickly tell you, games aren’t played on paper. And Homecoming games can often be trap games with all the distractions of the week.
It was a red-letter day for Crestview golfer Alex Fagan on Wednesday at the Okaloosa County Championship. The Bulldog senior won the tournament shooting an 80 at the Links Course at Sandestin.
He finished three shots ahead of his closest competitor.
They say the best surprise is no surprise. There were no surprises on Thursday as the Baker volleyball team embarked on capturing a 20th consecutive district championship at Central High School.

One week after being shut out by Blountstown the Baker football team showed it still has some firepower left.

A pair of Northwest Florida high school football heavyweights squared off at Crestview’s Jack Foster Stadium on Friday as Milton came to town to take on the Bulldogs.
Both teams needed a win to keep their playoff hopes alive. A loss could end either team’s chances of playing on past the first Friday in November.

There’s another road test waiting for the Baker football team on Friday as the Gators travel to Walton County for the second time this season.

Baker’s volleyball team continued its march to a 20th consecutive district championship on Tuesday beating Northview in three sets 25-6, 25-17, 25-11 in the District 1-1A tournament semifinals. The Gators face Jay in the championship match on Thursday evening at 6:30 at Central High School.
“I think we came out a little bit headstrong,” Gator coach Chelsea Medley said. “We lost a little bit of focus in the second set, but regained it in the third.”
