SUMMARY: Youth violence poses a serious challenge impacting families, schools, and communities. The Tupelo Police Athletic League is organizing a seminar, led by Officer Bayah Israel from Israel United in Christ, aimed at addressing this concern. The seminar focuses on teaching conflict resolution through Biblical principles. Officer Israel emphasizes that many youths lack conflict resolution skills and encourages self-love and the Golden Rule—treating others as one wishes to be treated. The seminar will be held this Saturday at 11:00 AM at 204 Douglas Street, featuring various speakers who will discuss solutions to curb youth violence.

SUMMARY: Brillan Williams, a football player from Tupelo High School, has been ruled ineligible by the MHSAA for the 2024-2025 school year after transferring from Nettleton High School. The MHSAA determined that Williams’ move was not a bona fide transfer, stating it was purely for athletic reasons and occurred outside the transfer window. Tupelo High made a case for his eligibility since summer, but their efforts were unsuccessful. Williams had previously played as a quarterback at Nettleton High for two years.
