As Week 1 of high school football kicked off across North Central Florida, teams were eager to see if their offseason workouts and summer conditioning would pay off.
For Columbia head coach Brian Allen, the results were promising.
The Tigers cruised to a 42-6 victory over Suwannee on Friday night, dominating from start to finish. Junior linebacker Alfonso Curry played a key role in the win and has been named the UF Health Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine Athlete of the Week for his performance.
This one week seminar is an immersion experience in basic musculoskeletal pathology, correlated with radiographic and imaging staging techniques, histologic diagnosis, and principles of treatment covering the gamut of musculoskeletal lesions.

Many high school athletes play multiple sports, but most compete in different seasons, easing the challenge of balancing athletics and academics. That's not the case for Branford High School senior Alex Whitfield.
Whitfield, the UF Health Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine Athlete of the Week, is currently juggling both track and softball — and excelling in each.
When Florida became the first state to recognize girls flag football as a competitive sport in 2003, it opened the door for athletes like Bradford High School senior Nichelle Brown to shine.
Now, more than two decades later, Brown is at the forefront of the sport's growth in North Central Florida. This week, she was named the UF Health Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine Athlete of the Week after leading the state in receiving yards, touchdowns and total points.

There aren't many high school baseball players who can consistently pitch and play the field at a high level. By the time athletes reach high school—and certainly college—they're often asked to choose one path. But Buchholz High School senior JJ Gardner isn't one of those typical players.
