Both players left Puerto Rico as teens to chase college basketball dreams, and now as seniors, they aim to leave a lasting impression. Their pride for Puerto Rico was reignited by witnessing their country in the Olympics after 20 years. The duo, recognized for their scrappy play, averages 15.5 and 13.3 points respectively and leads the team in assists. The Golden Eagles are set to play against South Dakota State on Wednesday.

SUMMARY: Governor Tate Reeves announced a $110 million investment in site development projects in Mississippi, including a $50,000 grant for Lamar County’s industrial park, matched by $25,000 from the county and another $25,000 from Cooperative Energy. The park is one of three “ready sites” in the state, designed for rapid development, with plans for a 52-acre site that requires geotechnical work and clearing. This investment aims to attract light manufacturing and distribution centers, ultimately increasing jobs and the county’s tax base, reflecting a commitment to future economic growth in Mississippi.
