It’s hard to believe we are starting up another high school sports season. I swear, each year it seems like summer goes by faster than the last. Time really does fly, I guess. It was an interesting 2024 fall season to say the least. We had playoff teams from the area in football and volleyball, […]

I realize we are at the point where, if there was an eighth day added to the week, college football would be played on it.
I just don’t understand why NCAA Division II has to jump on the ship. Is it too much to ask for D-II to avoid playing college football games on Friday nights?
