  • Young Eagles soar to title

    In a game where 88 combined points were scored, the story usually would revolve around offense. However, defense is what wins championships as Bronson's 9-10 year old football team showed en route to Saturday's 48-38 win against Hawthorne in the league title game.

    The Eagles finish the season with a 7-1 record and avenged their only loss in the process after falling 14-12 against Hawthorne during the regular season. The Hornets' lone loss before Saturday was a 6-0 defeat at the hands of Newberry.

  • Bronson suffers another big loss

    Timmy King’s blank stare was as cold as the ice bag numbing his right knee. Bronson’s senior lineman was injured during the first quarter of Friday’s 51-20 loss at Bell. It dropped the Eagles to 0-9 on the season.

    King sat mostly motionless during the second half, perhaps realizing his high school football career was over from what appeared to be a severe injury. He’d glance at the field only to watch plays, but his eyes would quickly return to the ground.

    After almost 46 minutes of little to cheer about other than Shelby Mills being crowned Homecoming Queen, Chiefland fans were throwing both arms into the air, clapping and yelling wildly and even ringing a cow bell.

  • District Disappointment

    Chiefland High volleyball players quietly wiped away tears and gathered up their belongings as Union County celebrated winning the Class 1A, District 7 Championship with a 3-1 victory against the Lady Indians in Newberry on Thursday night.

    Quotes from Alden Davis were left out of a story that ran on the front page about the Chiefland golf team winning the district tournament last week in Gainesville. Davis sank a six-foot putt on No. 18 to lift his team to the program’s first golf district title in years, if not ever.

    Williston coach Jamie Baker had trouble getting his team fired up to play winless Chiefland before Friday's battle for the Levy Cup trophy. 

    Chiefland coach Jim O'Neal had trouble trying to keep his team punched in when the Red Devils began pulling away en route to a 42-13 victory in Wayne Pridgeon Stadium.

    "We're Chiefland! Play like Chiefland!" O'Neal shouted to his players late in the third quarter.
