  1. Flagler Palm Coast's girls weightlifting team won seven of the 10 weight classes in the District 4-2A championship on Thursday, Jan. 23, at FPC High School. The Bulldogs finished the meet 26 points ahead of the nine-team field. The Bulldogs' Lexi Buchanan completed a 285-pound bench press and a 220-pound clean-and-jerk in the unlimited weight class.
  2. The tennis court at Old Dixie Park will be out of commission until Friday, Jan. 31, as the surface is prepared and repainted with additional markings to accommodate two regulation pickleball courts, according to a news release. This brings the number of Flagler County pickleball courts up to 11.
  3. FPC's boys wrestling team defeated crosstown rival Matanzas the night of Wednesday, Jan. 22, at FPC High School. The Bulldogs defeated the Pirates 50-21 — despite spotting the Pirates the match's first 12 points.
