Long Beach Poly’s football program is long on traditions. Diehard Jackrabbit fans will be excited to see that several of them are coming back this year: Poly re-signed with Nike, the uniform provider they had when they were on their dominant tear through the late 1990s, for one. The Nike uniforms have a much more […]

Season Preview: Jordan Panthers Football

Jordan was dealt perhaps the team’s toughest loss of the season before the season even started. The team’s top player coming into the year, senior Anthony Scott, was expected to line up at quarterback, receiver, running back, safety, and likely special teams spots as well over the course of the schedule. Instead, a recent knee […]
