•  RAW SPORTS
It's a good gig covering sports in this area..

Lots of passion..rivalries...And great athletes...

Plenty of special moments this year....and we've picked out the best..

Here are the all-area...Top ten plays of the year...

Number 10....Milton's Adam Allen...With an unorthodox ally-oop...
The pass a little short...But no problem for the now Florida Gator...

Number 9 Foley Recevier Julio Jones the one of the nation's top prospects..
Shows why......going up in double coverage for the game winning touchdown against rival Daphne..

Number 8....Ice Pilots against the Stingrays...
South Carolina's Matt Reid Booterd after a major penalty ..Reid...Throws a hissy fit ...And pays for it....with embarassment..

Number 7 Milton's Bubba Watson...In contention..final round of the U.S. Open...
Tee shot on the par 3 6th hole.... looking like a hole in one.......But not quite....Bubba could almost taste it..he still finihsed in the top 5..

Number 6 Roy Jones Junior taking on Anthony Hanshaw In Biloxi..
At 38 years old...He's still got it.. the lightning quick combo rocks Hanshaw.....The highlight in a decision win..

Number 5...Our own James Jackson invited to throw out the first pitch at a Pelicans game..
And he promptly embarrasses the station.....And his family name..

Number 4...Tate lining up for a field goal...But Pensacola High's Anthony Hill blocks it...
Hill scoops it up.....And laterals to Rickey Williams....who takes it the rest of the way. Impressive. But not the best play in that game......

At number 3....Tate pulling a fast one on PHS..
A pitch..reverse...Flea Flicker...And Jayce Boyd delivers it to Trevor Fritz........who caps it off with a tackle shedding finish...

Number 2....Juco baseball PJC taking on OWC...
OW rightfielder L.V. Ware....full sprint....fully extended to make the remarkable grab...

And the play of the year..is actually two plays..
Milton's Boo Weekley in contention at the PGA event in Hilton Head.. in trouble on 17...He chips in for par...
And then on 18...Another tricky spot.....But Boo has the answer.. back to back chip ins to close the tournament.. and earn his 1st PGA win........
