HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL RECORD BOOK It was seven years ago, at one of Chad Owens‘ all-star football camps, when Timmy Chang first met a young kid with big aspirations. “This little kid came up to me and said, ‘Hey Timmy, you know I’m going to break your record one day,’” Chang recalled Thursday while sitting in traffic in Charlotte, N.C. “At the time, I had just gotten done playing (football) and didn’t really know what the record was or anything, […]

By Jerry Campany on November 15, 2016

There are so many reasons to attend the first-ever, and maybe last, Open Championship on Saturday. The Sea of Red cheering on one of the best defenses ever and the last chance to see Tua Tagovailoa in a real game before he moves on to Alabama are two of them.

By Billy Hull on November 15, 2016

Saint Louis’ historic run of Prep Bowl titles ended only because of a format change. The Crusaders had won their 13th consecutive Prep Bowl in 1998, sliding past Kahuku, 28-20.
