SUMMARY: The Gulfport Admirals are entering their first season in 7A with new head coach Blake Pennick. After a successful nine-win season and playoff appearance in 2022, the team is looking to go even further under new leadership. With a new coaching staff comes a new playbook, and Coach Pennick’s main goal over the summer was to get everyone on the same page. The team has more than 20 seniors and over a dozen returning starters, but they are adjusting to the new system and coaching style. Senior players Gavin Brown and Jaquan Payton are both optimistic about the team’s progress and are focused on setting a good example and bringing energy to practice. The Admirals will kick off their season against Goshen in the Port City Bowl.

SUMMARY: Long Beach city leaders are progressing towards repairing the storm-damaged harbor, following Hurricane Zeta’s destruction of piers and docks in October 2020. In a recent meeting, aldermen voted to solicit bids for inner harbor repairs. Although FEMA awarded the city $2.58 million, rising costs due to inflation may exceed this amount. FEMA will reimburse the actual repair costs, prompting the city to finalize expenditure estimates. Harbor improvement efforts will continue under the current administration until June 30, with additional work underway on the inner bulkhead wall funded by Tidelands Gulf Restoration and Gilsa funds.
