Notable: Telfort spent the first three years of his high school career at Miami Norland Senior High School. After much consideration, he and his family decided transferring to Booker T. Washington for his senior year was the best choice for him academically. He helped lead the Tornadoes to a state championship appearance as a senior in 2016, but came up just short of the title with a 24-21 loss to Cocoa High School. Telfort earned OL MVP honors for his outstanding performance at The Opening Miami in March of 2016.

Quotable: “Every time I go there it just feels like home and they welcome me with open arms. I always learn something new up there and the facilities are great. Everything is better there.”

Bailiegh Carlton
A lifelong sports fan, Bailiegh Carlton knew from a young age that she wanted to work in sports in some capacity. Before transferring to the University of Florida to study journalism, she played softball at Gulf Coast State College. She then interned for Gator Country for three years as she worked toward her degree. After graduation, Bailiegh decided to explore other opportunities in the world of sports, but all roads led her right back here. In her time away, she and her husband welcomed a beautiful baby girl into the world. When she isn't working, she can almost always be found snuggled up with sweet baby Ridley, Cody and her four fur babies.
