Florida High School sports can be cruel. The FHSAA has decided only eight teams, the state champion from each classification, can finish the season with a win in their respective sport.
It’s a subtle reality that for most teams, most seasons are going to end in the worst possible result.
Facing that reality, it never seemed to deter the teams at CHS.
On a regular basis I got to cover the boy’s basketball, girls basketball, baseball and softball teams. All four came in with very different expectations.
