Student Earns Hootworthy Soccer Scholarship to Jackson State University!

Our latest Hootworthy episode highlights Elon, a 12th grade Georgia Cyber Academy (GCA) Champion who earned a scholarship from Jackson State University (JSU) to play soccer! She expressed how much earning this scholarship meant to her, and how it particularly showed her that hard work truly can pay off. Elon began her soccer journey at the age of nine playing in recreation leagues, but quickly moved on to the more competitive select and travel club teams. The travel teams were always the most competitive—the most difficult to earn a spot and the level of play. The most recent travel team she played for required a two-hour drive, just for practice, four times per week! Of course, she is incredibly thankful for her mom driving her to and from all those practices. Elon shared that the farthest she ever traveled for a game was all the way to California! She loved traveling to different places because she was able to do more than just play soccer, she was able to explore the areas too.  Elon prefers playing the forward position on the field because she enjoys scoring goals and having a bit more of an impact on the game, but she is always willing to play where needed. Much preparation went into getting Elon to where she is today: an athletic scholarship recipient. On top of practicing and playing on high level club teams, she constantly honed her skills while at home by using the rebounder in the backyard, dribbling around the house, and practicing with her siblings. Elon described a couple life lessons that soccer has taught her over the years:No matter how good you are, there will always be someone out there looking for your downfall.If you want something, you must work for it. Actions speak louder than words—let your play do the talking instead of running your mouth. Elon has been a student at GCA since the 2nd grade, so she had much to pull from when asked what she has enjoyed most about being a student here. She emphasized the flexibility that GCA offered, like being able to take a test at Starbucks. She also loved the community events where she was able to socialize, meet new people, and make new friends! Even though she has loved being a GCA Champion, she looks forward to going to JSU. She is looking forward to the new environment and also exploring a new city including learning the different culture of the place. She is also excited about playing at the collegiate level as well as the challenge and growth that will come from that level of competition. With excitement also comes nervousness, like wondering how she will balance a college workload while playing college soccer. Elon plans to major in marketing while minoring in psychology. She wanted to give shoutouts to her mom (GCA Community Events Coordinator, Monique Sheffield), GCA faculty and staff, and friends. We can't wait to see Elon on the pitch at JSU! What an incredible accomplishment earning a scholarship to play collegiate soccer! Go get some hat tricks, Elon, and stay hootworthy!

TimeOut With The SportsDr. Podcast

Success is something that everyone desires, but not everyone achieves. The journey toward success is often portrayed as glamorous, with an end goal of wealth, fame, and recognition. However, the reality is that the road to success is often a rocky and challenging one with many obstacles and setbacks. It can be dirty, lonely, and full of moments where one may question his choices and abilities. Consequently, the path toward success may often be lonely, as it may require stepping away from the crowd and going against the norm. It can be daunting, as it may mean leaving behind familiar faces and places. However, the willingness to take this leap of faith and trust oneself sets the successful apart from the rest.   Moreover, while the road to success may require some level of independence and self-reliance, it is essential to note that the feeling of not belonging can also be limiting. When we feel like we do not fit in a particular group or environment, it can create a sense of self-doubt. It can also prevent us from reaching our full potential. We may hold ourselves back from opportunities because of fear that we are good enough. It is essential to recognize that success does not require conforming to a particular mold or fitting into a specific box. Instead, success is about embracing one's unique strengths and qualities and using them to achieve one's goals. As Dr. Burgess believes, "Life will try you, and every day, you can completely second guess even your knowledge and ability to perform." Thus, we must push through the challenges and remain focused on the end goal of success.    Dr. Rebecca W. Lauderdale is a speaker, southerner, and physician at Hattiesburg Clinic Comprehensive Care, providing care for patients with complex medical conditions. Dr. Rebecca has been a board-certified internist in south Mississippi since 2007 with Hattiesburg Clinic. This 300+ physician multispecialty professional association is physician owned. She started in hospital medicine, but in 2016 launched a new adventure in the outpatient setting focused on care for medically complex Medicare patients in their ACO. She's also an inspiring podcaster at Belonging in the South: A Guide for Misfits.   In this special episode with Dr. Derrick Burgess hosted by Dr. Rebecca Lauderdale, we will learn about the passion of an inspiring man who broke the stereotypes and found his calling in helping minority athletes strengthen their mindset, grow their assets, and accomplish the level of success they aim to achieve for their lives. Be encouraged as he shares with us his passion for sports and medicine, which drives him to fulfill his dream of becoming a first-generation orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine physician.    "The road to success is usually not a pretty path. It's sometimes dirty and lonely, but you have to fight for it. You have to be willing to go the extra mile sometimes and willing to do an extra amount of work or study to do what it takes to achieve what you want." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   Topics Covered: (00:00:00) Introduction (00:01:14) Dr. Derrick's first podcast episode with his grandfather (00:03:11) The Emphasis on Education: Education is the key. (00:04:15) Being intelligent isn't always the popular choice. (00:06:00) Family support: Being present for each other. (00:07:05) When does Dr. Burgess realize he wants to be a surgeon? (00:08:43) What drew Dr. Burgess into sports? (00:10:26) From Alabama to Xavier: How was it different? (00:11:53) The culture of building black doctors (00:12:26) Living outside the South (00:15:48) Confidence and Belongingness (00:16:42) How Dr. Burgess became a team physician for Jackson State University. (00:17:52) You must be prepared for when chance knocks. (00:18:50) Mentoring athletes: What are your plans after high school? (00:20:15) The primary role of being in sports (00:22:06) Sport is debate.  (00:22:48) You can learn from anyone. (00:23:11) The Power of Collaboration (00:24:22) Quick Reminder: Are you enjoying this episode? Please share it, leave a five-star review, and give feedback. Go to TimeOut with the SportsDr website.

(00:27:37) A guarded time to come together as one family. (00:29:28) How does Dr. Burgess teach their children to stay grounded? (00:31:15) We all have struggles we have to overcome. (00:32:04) Share your failures just as you share your success. (00:32:55) The value of work ethic (00:33:57) Inborn talent almost means nothing. (00:35:08) The road to success is usually a challenging path.   Key Takeaways:     "My grandfather would always emphasize education even though, as you learned from his story that he wasn't able to go far into his formal education as a child." – Dr. Derrick Burgess    "Sometimes being smart is not always the popular thing to do." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "Sometimes you could get singled out is if you were too smart, and it's a fine line that you have to walk, especially in that middle school, high school era where we were the minority." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "If we feel like we don't belong in a certain place or group of people, it can limit us." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "My father would coach our teams not because he was big into sports, but he wanted us to have a fair chance of having the best of everything." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "Early exposure allowed me to see that orthopedics is something that I want since I like medicine, science, and sports. I thought it was a perfect marriage even though it's not as much as I thought it would be, but it's enough to spark interest." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "Sports was always a part of growing up in the south, always a part of our lives, and team sports I feel are so important to build different things in kids." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "The culture of building black doctors was very prominent, and it was okay to be smart. That was one of the first times that I was able to identify with that." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "Life will try you. Every day is a new day, and every day; you can completely second guess even your knowledge and ability to perform." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "When opportunity knocks, you have to be ready." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "I believe if you aren't able to see something, many times you can't believe it." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "I get exposure to a lot of minority athletes, and I'm able to talk to them and have conversations that maybe they never had before and helped hold them to a level of accountability that maybe that no one's ever held them to." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "My three pillars are to strengthen your mindset, help you grow your assets, and help you achieve whatever level of success you want for your life. Whatever success means to you, you have to define it, and then you can achieve it." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "I might walk out of the house, and it's raining, but it doesn't mean it's going to be a bad day simply because it's bad weather." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "One of the blessings and curses of being in sports is just so wild because you're always on the go, fun, but it was exhausting." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "Don't forget the things that got you where you are, and you always have to keep those a part of your daily routine and truly building strong daily habits as one of your main success points." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "Dinner time is a protected time. One thing when you have people going in multiple directions that can fall short sometimes, but we try to come together and eat all at the dinner table." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "You cannot expect anyone to give you anything; you still have to earn for yourself." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "You're not any better than anyone else simply because your car might be nicer." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "We try to keep our Children grounded, but at the same time, empower them to know that they can achieve anything that they set their minds to." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "Share some of your failures just as much as you will share your success. Because many times on social media, people are only showing what they do well at; they don't show what they struggle with." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   "You're often going to deal with setbacks, but that's not the end of the road. If something is important to you and you want to achieve a certain goal, then you have to push forward for it." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   Connect with Dr. Rebecca Lauderdale: Website: https://www.belonginginthesouth.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.lauderdale/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rebecca.lauderdale/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.lauderdale LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rebecca-lauderdale-md-facp-65771393/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4gzINV5jkDIKCVLqRxGECS?si=48e689af9d37455b   Connect with Dr. Derrick Burgess: Website: https://www.drderrickthesportsdr.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drderrickthesportsdr/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TimeOut.SportsDr LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/derrick-burgess-72047b246/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHGDu1zT4K_X6PnYELu8weg Email: thesportsdoctr@gmail.com   This episode of TimeOut with the SportsDr. is produced by Podcast VAs Philippines - the team that helps podcasters effectively launch and manage their podcasts, so we don't have to.

Former Atlanta Braves and Parkview baseball player Jeff Francoeur is set to return for his sixth season as a lead analyst for Bally Sports' Atlanta Braves broadcasts. Francoeur will be joined by former Braves infielder and Duluth grad Nick Green who will cover pre and post-game shows. Legendary former Braves pitcher and Baseball Hall of Famer Tom Glavine also plans to join Bally broadcasts this season after stepping away in 2022. A total of 11 broadcasters will provide coverage for Bally, which will air 149 Atlanta games this season. The first Braves broadcast on Bally Sports will be Opening Day, March 30, as the Braves take on the Washington Nationals. The Georgia House of Representatives has voted in favor of a bill proposing a new system for compensating wrongfully convicted individuals. The legislation, sponsored by Representative Scott Holcomb, would create a panel of experts in the criminal justice system to determine whether a wrongful conviction had occurred and if compensation was warranted. The Claims Advisory Board would then make recommendations to the chief justice of the Georgia Supreme Court for inclusion in the state budget. Awards under the new system would range from $50,000 to $100,000 for each year of wrongful incarceration, depending on the panel's decision. The House passed similar legislation last year, also sponsored by Holcomb, but it died in the Senate. This year's bill is pending before the Senate Appropriations Committee but has yet to get a hearing. Buford's boys and girls track and field teams swept the championships at Saturday's Gulf Shores Invitational in Gulf Shores, Alabama. The Wolves won the 19-team boys meet with 128 points to finish ahead of the 107 from runner-up Pace from Florida while the girls team won with 128.5. Foley from Alabama was second in the girls meet at 91.5. Buford got girls event wins from Jaci Wright, Dominique Brown,  the 4,000 distance medley relay, the 3,200 relay, the 400 relay and the 1,600 relay. The Wolves got boys victories from Jayden Ivaniciuc , Devin Williams, Ervin Pearson, the 400 relay and the 1,600 relay. Monique Lee and Amy Lazic have been appointed as new principals for the North Metro Academy of Performing Arts and Oakland Meadow School, respectively. Lee has worked in education since 1997 and has been with Gwinnett County Public Schools since 2007. She replaces Rodriguez Johnson. Lazic has been with GCPS since 2005 and has worked as a speech language specialist and pathologist before that. She replaces retired Oakland Meadow School principal Sara Clifford.

Lazic earned her bachelor's degree in speech pathology and audiology from Stockton University, her master's degree in speech language pathology from Kean University, and a specialist degree in educational leadership from the University of West Georgia. With less than two weeks left in the Georgia General Assembly session, Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones is providing anxious lawmakers with a calming presence. Jones supports a $2,000 pay raise for state employees and a property tax rebate from Georgia's budget surplus. He also supports a sports betting measure and a school vouchers bill, though the latter is criticized by Democrats. Sports betting — after appearing to have died prior to the all-important “Crossover Day” deadline earlier this month– may have gained new life this week when it was tacked onto an unrelated bill about soap box derbies. Jones said he thought it was wise for the legislature to consider sports betting apart from other gambling measures. Jones contends that sports betting proceeds could help increase state revenues for the HOPE scholarship and help pay for expanded offerings such as scholarships for technical schools and early childhood learning. A strong road midweek starting performance has earned Georgia Gwinnett College sophomore right hander Ben Harris honors as the Continental Athletic Conference Baseball Pitcher of the Week. Harris won his second straight start by matching a career high with seven innings and 11 strikeouts in a key road win against Middle Georgia State University last Tuesday. The right hander did not allow an earned run in the outing. The Crystal Lake, Illinois, native scattered six hits and helped toss six consecutive scoreless frames starting in the second inning. He helped the Grizzlies rally from an early 3-2 deficit, with those runs being unearned, to grab the lead in the fifth inning. Harris has a 4-0 record this season after starting six games and completing 31.2 innings. He has thrown 48 strikeouts while allowing just 11 walks and eight earned runs.   Maria Moreno joins us to talk about the Nature of Color exhibit at Fernbank.      As we get closer to the start of the 2023 Masters, Times-Journal Incorporated sports editor John Bednarowski joins the show continue to take us on a tour of Augusta National presented by Ingles.

Following the recent social and cultural uproar from his comments on recruitment, leaving Jackson State University for Colorado- Coach Prime is not shying away from the backlash and speaking honestly as he opens up to Fred, Ryan and Channing about the past couple months of change. In a long awaited conversation dating back to a previous exchange where Channing told Deion he didn't see him at a HBCU for a long time because of the lack of money and resources- Deion sets record straight that it was never about money, it was always about a calling to make a difference and create opportunities. Focused on what's in front of him and adapting to the opportunities life creates and the importance of bringing those close to him along on the journey, especially with his children. Ryan asks Prime how HBCUs will continue to grow without his footprint and blueprint, especially after bringing 5-star players like Travis Hunter with him in his exit and how will the programs maintain that level of attention without his contributions. Deion credits his time at JSU for making him the coach he is today and proud of the foundation he built for others to expand upon and explains why he felt it was his time to move on. Deion becomes emotional when Fred asks about the importance of community and continues to discuss family through his recent health scare. In a moment of vulnerability, Deion opens up about having no control as he battled one of the toughest things he's ever been through and one of the scariest too, having blood clots in his lower extremities which led to amputation of two toes. Relying on those close to him, it was extremely difficult to be away from his children as Prime emotionally shares one moment with his son Shedeur which really put into perspective the effects change was having on not just him, but everyone close to him. Being one of the greatest athletes in our era and an icon on every level, Ryan talks to Deion on how doing the physical things that made him a legend are now the things he is unable to do and how that transition has been mentally. "I hope to run again one day...that's my goal, to be able to run," Deion says with watery eyes, it's the little things sometimes we take for granted who made us who we are that we no longer can do- that's when life becomes real. With the odds stacked against him, Deion is known for being a winner everywhere he goes and with everything he does which makes this transition to a new level, a challenging one. Ryan reiterates the importance of strong leadership and putting good people in proper places to excel and grow with him, which Deion has mastered. Close to selling out the stadium in Colorado for the first time in years, Prime talks about what it takes to build a championship program and his goals for the upcoming years as not just a coach but a father too. Deion's next chapter as the head coach of Colorado is being documented for an upcoming series on Amazon Prime. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

As we close out black history month, this podcast episode will discuss everyday moments in black history. The reflections of the past, present, and future. What better person can share these stories other than Lance Wheeler, a public historian and community curator with years of experience sharing the everyday stories of African American history and culture. Lance is the Director of Exhibitions at the National Center for Civil and Human Rights, previously served as the Education & PR Manager for the Margaret Walker Center & COFO Civil Rights Education Center at Jackson State University and served as the inaugural Curator of Exhibitions at the Mississippi Civil Rights Museum. In those roles, he used exhibitions to create dialogue around civil and human rights history to help bridge the events from the past to current issues in the 21st century. Lance believes, “At its simplest form, museums are more than buildings that house artifacts; museums are and should be places that take individuals on a spiritual journey bridging the past with the present and beyond.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsforthaculture/message

The Cleveland Browns fired Joe Woods on Black Monday. On this episode of The Locked On Browns Podcast we discuss 5 possible candidates to replace Joe Woods as the Browns defensive coordinators we're considering. As the Browns prepare for their next season, it's important to keep an eye on the defensive coordinator position. With Joe Woods now fired, it's time for the team to look for a new coordinator. In this video, we're discussing 5 possible candidates to replace Joe Woods as the Browns defensive coordinator. Stay tuned for more updates! 1. EJIRO EVERO – DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR, DENVER BRONCOS Evero is already a Defensive Coordinator with the Denver Broncos, but it looks like Head Coach Nathanial Hackett is unlikely to see a second season. This would leave Evero looking for a job unless the Broncos hire him as their next Head Coach. Evero has been one of the only bright spots in Denver this year, heading up the 4th ranked defense in DVOA. Evero is widely regarded as a rising star in the NFL at 41-years-old. 2. MIKE ZIMMER - CONSULTANT, JACKSON STATE UNIVERSITY Mike Zimmer was Head Coach of the Minnesota Vikings from 2014-2021; Stefanski was on his staff for six seasons. In 2018, Stefanski was promoted to interim Offensive Coordinator and later named the full-time Offensive Coordinator. Zimmer is 66 years old and served as a consultant for one of his favorite former players, Deion Sanders, at Jackson State University this season. 3. JIM SCHWARTZ - SENIOR DEFENSIVE ASSISTANT, TENNESSEE TITANS Jim Schwartz is now in his 12th season with the Titans and his 29th in the NFL. After eight years on the staff as a defensive coordinator (1999-2008), he returned to the team in 2021 as a senior defensive assistant. Schwartz has been a defensive coordinator in the NFL for 14 years and was a head coach for the Detroit Lions for four years (2009-13). In addition, Schwartz worked for the Philadelphia Eagles as their defensive coordinator from 2016 until 2020, helping them win a Super Bowl in 2017. 4. ERIC WASHINGTON – SENIOR DEFENSIVE ASSISTANT/DEFENSIVE LINE, BUFFALO BILLS Eric Washington joined the Bills in 2020 as the team's defensive line coach and was promoted to senior defensive assistant/defensive line coach before the start of the 2022 season. In Washington's first season with the Bills, they went to the AFC Championship game, and in his second season, he helped lead a defense that ranked first in the NFL in the fewest points allowed per game (17.0) for the first time in franchise history. In 2018, Washington led the Panthers' defense from 28th to 12th in interceptions, 32nd to 13th in passes defended, and 18th to 9th in tackles for loss. Washington reunited with McDermott in Buffalo after Rivera was fired from the Panthers. 5. JIM LEONHARD - INTERIM HEAD COACH, UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN Jim Leonhard is one of the top defensive minds in the college game. He went 4-3 as the interim Head Coach of the Wisconsin Badgers, replacing Paul Chryst halfway through the season. Still, Wisconsin has elected to hire Luke Fickell as their new head coach. Over the last five seasons running the Badger defense, he led them to top five in total defense five times and top 10 in scoring defense four times. Learn more about your ad choices.

Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders is under scrutiny after announcing his departure as head football coach at Jackson State University for the University of Colorado.
