    The newest Athlete of the Week poll reflects championship performances as tickets were punched to South State and the medals were earned at the track and field championships.

    Flag football in Mississippi is nearing the end of its 12-team pilot season operated by the New Orleans Saints.

The MHSAA is keen on growing the sport, and doing so quickly, if the environment is right.

One Division I baseball team out of 307 has both a 2.00 ERA pitcher and a 17-HR hitter: Southern Miss (two 17-HR hitters, actually).
