With the start of a new year, perhaps it’s time for the FHSAA to try something new with weightlifting.
Nothing wrong with the sport overall, but the structure of the regions could use a makeover.
We are a week away from Christmas and are sitting at two weeks until 2025, and me, I’m here trying to wrap my mind around the fact that time has flown by like a sprinter.
Fall sports are history, winter sports still have a couple of months to go and spring sports teams have already started conditioning.
We are less than a week away from Christmas and under two weeks until 2025, and me, I’m here trying to wrap my mind around the fact that time has flown by like a sprinter.
I have a favorite Christmas hymn that I am uncomfortable singing. It is one of the most beloved Christmas hymns, and I love it too, with reservation. I am a man conflicted!
VIRGINIA, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except (what) they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men’s or children’s, are little.

There are many commonly used words in the English language to which are affixed a prefix or suffix. As commonly used as these compound words are, the same word, without the prefix or suffix accessory, is rarely used, if ever.

Yes, it too is a legit word that means, “satisfied.”
We are in the midst of the Christmas season and the allure of online shopping and big-box retailers can be tempting. The convenience of online shopping is hard to beat.

Shopping locally isn’t just a trend; it’s a powerful way to support our community, economy, and environment. Here are some reasons to consider supporting your community’s small businesses.
There were enough fights in college football over Thanksgiving weekend to make a day at the hockey rink look tame.
All those flag plantings on the field riled up the losing teams, who might have won their games had they shown that much fight and emotion during the game.
