The alleged assailant “violently attacked” Hernandez, files say, and her tw...

I love to feel the rain on my face; taste the rain on my lips. In the moonlight shadows, showers wash all my cares away.” Routine has slipped my grip. While I’ve managed to spend several o...

The District 9C was loaded with quality girls basketball teams this winter. And that's why it should come as no surprise that so many 9C players made the Class C All-State list.
