| | | | UCF’s RJ Harvey sets TD mark but Knights fall at home to Utah in season finale | DJ Lagway looks to make history with Florida at FSU’s expense | Magic use 3-pointers to prevail at Brooklyn | FHSAA football region finals: Jones, Lake Mary, Dr. Phillips and Osceola advance | | | | Tailback RJ Harvey became UCF’s all-time touchdown leader but it wasn’t enough as the Knights lost their season finale to the Utes. | | | | | Mike Norvell is positioned to finish with the worst record at FSU since Darrell Mudra was 1-10 in 1974 after he replaced Larry Jones following an 0-11 season. | | | | | A good team finds ways to win, and the Gators are a better one behind quarterback DJ Lagway and an improved defense. | | | | | Orlando won its fifth straight game Friday night against the Nets behind a game-high 29 points from Franz Wagner. | | | | | Lomar Sparrow had 17 points and 6 rebounds for Eustis in boys basketball while Alex Nichols had 16 points and 7 rebounds for Foundation. Girls hoops winners included TFA and Ocoee. | | | | | The FHSAA serves feast of football for Friday night. 7 Orlando area teams are alive, including 12-0 Jones. The Tigers are home, as are Dr. Phillips and Lake Mary (vs. rival Seminole). West Orange, Kissimmee Osceola and Bishop Moore are on the road as underdogs. Winners advance to state semifinal. | | | | | The No. 4 seed Lions face an Eastern Conference final matchup against the No. 7 New York Red Bulls with a chance to advane to their first MLS Cup final. They will be counting on the home crowd to give them that extra edge. | | | | | The Lions have the pieces to take down New York and advance to their first MLS Cup final, which will be hosted by Los Angeles or Seattle. | | | | | All that stands in the way of the Lions and a first MLS Cup final appearance is the upstart Red Bulls, who upset the 2023 champion Columbus Crew and New York City FC to get here. | | | | | UF combined what already has become one of the most tenacious defenses in the country with its best offensive performance of the season in blowing out the Shockers 88-51 in the championship game at the ESPN Wide World of Sports. | | | | | Anthony Cirelli and Brandon Hagel also scored and Jonas Johnasson made 29 saves for the Lightning, who have won two of three. | | | | | The Dolphins are good against bad teams. They're bad against good teams. They're still the team everyone feared they are. | | | |
