Pop Warner
The unbeaten Tacolcy Raiders 105s tackle football team traveled from Liberty City to St. Cloud and defeated the Creekside Outlaws 8-0 in the region finals of the Pop Warner Tournament, qualifying for nationals.
The holiday win marked the first time since Tacolcy’s sports program began more than 30 years ago that it has reached nationals, which are at Disney’s Wide World of Sports Complex in Lake Buena Vista.
The Raiders feature 27 boys, age 10-11, who have been loyal and hardworking throughout the season.
“It’s been a long wait and a lot of effort put into Tacolcy bringing its football program up to this level,” Raiders coach Stephon McGill said. “This will be a great experience for our players to make history.”
Cedric Hooper, the athletic director at Tacolcy, added: “I know what God’s glory looks like and what He can do... I’m happy for my players and my coaches because I know this is the result of obedience and hard work paying off. The kids have worked so very hard.”

Tennis
The seventh annual USTA/Jaimes Tennis Girls’ 14 Designated at the Paul J. Maxwell Tennis Center was a tremendous success. The top players in Florida in the Girls’ 14 age bracket traveled to Pembroke Pines for valuable ranking points and a lot of fun for a great cause, the fight of cancer.
Players, parents, coaches and spectators were asked to wear pink for the weekend in support of the fight of breast cancer as well as to support the theme of an all girls’ weekend. Besides the top level tennis, the girls competed for such valuable titles as Pinkest Player, Friendliest Player (as voted by their peers), SportsGirlship (as voted by the staff) and top three cupcake champions.
