I understand the importance of security at high school sporting events. But I also feel like you shouldn’t have to go through some long process just to ensure you have a sideline pass for a game.

Football is just about back. The Kickoff Classics get rolling next week, and the regular season kicks off a week after that.

There are a lot of storylines going into the season.

Last place. That’s where the University of West Florida football team is predicted to finish in the United Athletic Conference this coming season.

I’m not surprised. You shouldn’t be either.

It was a fun run for the United States Men’s National Team while it lasted. The country seemed to come together for a couple of weeks earlier this summer to cheer on the team in the World Cup.

It seems like every time I turn around another collegiate conference is adding women’s flag football.

It’s not a surprise. The sport is one of the fastest growing in the country and is an emerging sport at the NCAA level.

On a morning where I only planned to shoot photos of a basketball scrimmage, I ended up being asked to shoot a ball as well.

The New York Knicks are NBA champions for the first time in more than a half century, and their championship is about more than just a trophy.

I was 14 or 15 years old when Stacey King came to a shoe store in my hometown of Rockford, Illinois, to sign autographs for a few hours.


King was a rookie with the Chicago Bulls.

The FHSAA Board of Directors voted unanimously by a 10-0 count on Tuesday to approve the open division for the postseason in several sports.


The top eight teams, regardless of classification, will be a part of its own tournament starting this school year for football, basketball, volleyball, soccer, baseball, softball, flag football and lacrosse.
