The world is filled with millions of sports fans that live and breathe sports. My whole life I have followed sports, played sports, and looked up to certain athletes. When I hear about how we might not have a NFL season next year due to labor strikes it really grinds my gears. I mean what would a whole year be like without NFL football?

Seniors Adrienne Donelson and Tierra Ford, of the Flagler College women’s basketball team, finished their final season with satisfaction and aspirations for the future.
Donelson may be soft spoken but is not timid when it comes to the court. She is a player full of energy which was seen numerous times during her four year career with Flagler. As a starter for the team, she was a great asset in scoring and in rebounds.

In every sport there is always a superstar who outshines other players. Whether it’s shooting 40 points in a game or taking a team to the Super Bowl, these star players make big things happen. Usually we hear about the same athletes such as Tiger Woods, Kobe Bryant or Jeff Gordon.
