Niceville's season comes to an end on Pace last-second TD
NICEVILLE — In today's MaxPreps-driven, Wild Wild West atmosphere of Florida high school football, where every two years a new playoff format enters the foray and coaches are jockeying for position in a non-transparent formula, there's a thin line between district champ and sitting out the playoffs. Niceville went from the former to the latter in the final 20 seconds of Wednesday night's District 1-5A title game against Pace at Eagle Stadium. UP 25-24 with 20 seconds left, the Eagles had done everything in their power to hoist district hardware and flip the narrative on Adron Robinson's first year at the helm. Deagan McCoy drove the Eagles 79 yards in 2:34, the junior connecting with Jakobe Gilyard for a 14-yard touchdown and then Caleb Leonard for the go-ahead 2-point conversion on a gutsy decision by Robinson. Only, a mistake was made. Leonard spiked the ball to draw the unsportsmanlike flag, turning a routine touchback on the ensuing kickoff into a Pace opportunity with the ball moved 15 yards back.

Sandestin begins restoration of The Raven with eye toward bringing pro golf back to the resort
When you’re a major year-round resort, there’s never a good time to shut down your main tournament course for renovations and restoration. Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort in Destin, Fla., is planning to do just that with The Raven Golf Club for the first nine months of 2027. In part, the work reflects the normal wear and tear associated with a 26-year-old course. But the restoration of The Raven also sheds light on Sandestin’s ambitious plans to bring professional golf back to Northwest Florida. The Raven previously hosted the PGA Tour Champions and the Korn Ferry Tour, and Rick Hileman, executive director of golf at Sandestin, views the course enhancements as a first step toward landing a professional men’s or women’s tournament. “We are a perfect fit and a perfect location for a pro tour,” Hileman said. “We have a 2,400-acre resort with a multiple array of accommodations. We go from the beach to the bay. You have four great golf courses, tennis, shopping, dining. It’s somewhere a family can come, watch some great golf, then have plenty to do in the evenings or when they’re not watching golf.” In a sign of how seriously Sandestin is taking this project,
