| | | | 5 drivers to watch at 67th Daytona 500 | 'Coach' McKenzie Milton advances to next career phase at UCF | Osceola Magic's Mac McClung pulls off 1st dunk contest three-peat | | | | Bubba Wallace has made it clear he now wants to be known more for being a race car driver than a social justice warrior. | | | | | Brad Keselowski's six wins and three runner-up finishes at Talladega signal super-speedway mastery but have translated to just one win at Daytona — in the 2017 summer race. | | | | | Still driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, Denny Hamlin continues to reward the family's while he pushes to increase his 54 Cup Series wins and capture an elusive season championship. | | | | | He earned the win by leading 30 laps and leaving nothing to chance in the overtime period — leading that final restart from beginning to end. | | | | | Local track meet winners were Jones and Olympia girls, and Ocoee and Gateway girls; Windermere won the Big Blue Bonanza baseball tourney. Colonial won the Ocoee Invitational boys wrestling meet. | | | | | Winter Springs senior Ava Bell just missed winning a FHSAA girls weightlifting state title on Saturday. "I gave it my all and that's really all I could ask for," she said. West Orange's Leah Duran also came close. Hagerty senior Emiaj Jamie was one of the champions. She won the 110-pound weight class. | | | | | The first coaching hire that Scott Frost made upon his return to Orlando was his former quarterback, McKenzie Milton. Said Frost: "He will be a good coach. I'm so excited to give him his first shot at running his room and we'll be right there alongside him to ensure it's successful." | | | | | The leaping guard pulled off four perfect dunks for an unprecedented NBA dunk contest three-peat. | | | | | Matthew Tkachuk skated around several times in the third to test out whatever was bothering him but sat at the end of the bench for the rest of the period. | | | | | The Gators (22-3, 9-3 SEC) led by four at halftime and started the second half with a 12-1 run to open up a comfortable lead. | | | | | Keyshawn Hall scored 19 points, Darius Johnson scored 15 points and reserve Nils Machowski 13 for UCF. | | | | | Clemson has won six straight in the series. | | | | | The Hurricanes dropped to 6-19 overall and 2-12 in the ACC. | | | |
