I'll be at Brookville/JF tonight as the Cavaliers look to remain unbeaten and atop the Seminole District, but Heritage/LCA will be as important for the district and Region 3C races.
The Pioneers get LCA and JF over the final two weeks of the season.
The young Pioneers have gotten to the grueling part of their schedule and are ready to demonstrate their growth beginning against Liberty Christian in Week 10. ➡️ Find link to story in bio

For the first time since Week 3, Liberty is back in the routine of Saturday football. Flames welcome FIU to Williams Stadium for homecoming on Halloween.
"The midweeks, it creates a little bit of adversity. We handled it well."

Liberty basketball isn't letting the unique midnight tipoff time against High Point in @TheFieldOf68 Tipoff Marathon on Monday upset its routines.
"I think there will be so much adrenaline and excitement the first game of the year," said Ritchie McKay.

McKay on midnight start vs. High Point: "We haven't had any [midnight practices]. We won't have one. We might practice late on Friday or Saturday, one or two days beforehand and then roll on out there. I think in a situation like this, there's so many unknowns..."

"I know I'm going to get the Sean McVay stuff if we don't come away with the desired outcome. But I would just tell you, sleep's important to us. And our guys are in a routine. They adhere to it. And I think there will be so much adrenaline and excitement the first game of the year. ... I don't think we have to worry about not being emotionally charged for the game."

Ritchie McKay on Zander Carter: "He's been fabulous. His leadership has been on a 10. He's been terrific. And I describe him a little bit like what [Josh] Hart is for the Knicks. He'll just do whatever you need. He's willing to do it."

Liberty's Ritchie McKay on facing High Point in the opener: "It's like taking a final in the first week of the school year. They're going to really pressure us. And I do think that will be good for us. The ability to have that kind of opponent that early in the season will tell us a lot about what we're not."

Liberty's Kam Davis on Jaylon Coleman: "Jaylon, that's like my best friend. That's my dog. I've seen him grow from the spring to the summer, not only body wise, but just in the way he's developed mentally. ... He's a speed back, but he can also stick his face in there."
