Charles Boswell of Birmingham sank the first hole in one in his 25 years of golfing, using a six-iron on the 141-yard 14th at Vestavia CC in his home town. Earlier this year, in Greensboro, N.C., Boswell won his 17th national blind golfer's title.

Mike Miley of Metairie, La. has accounted for 1,447 yards total offense (554 rushing and 893 passing) for a 7.9-yard-per-play average while scoring nine touchdowns, passing for 10 more and leading the East Jefferson High football team to seven straight wins.
