'Building that foundation': Booker T. flag football wants to help sport continue to grow in Escambia County

Booker T. Washington's Kamryn Hughes made a bold, but accurate, statement after the Wildcats flag football team dominated in the District 1-2A quarterfinals over Escambia.

"We're making a whole lot of history at Booker T.," she said with a smile, along with the core group of leadership for the Wildcats. That also included Devani Williams, Da'rieon Gilbert and Jordan Jeffcoat. Booker T., currently 9-2 and in the district playoffs, is in the middle of its second winning season in program history.

The Wildcats' only two losses, entering Tuesday's semifinal game against Fort Walton Beach, were against highly-ranked teams in Fort Walton Beach and Pace.
