Brandon Football: Plant Loss Extends Eagles' Winless Season

It was a somber night for the Eagles, who returned home to Brandon on Oct. 12 with their sixth loss in a winless season. Brandon bowed to the Plant Panthers, who extended their wins to five with a 55-0 shut-out victory.

  The Brandon High Eagles failed to snap their losing streak in Plant on Friday night, Oct. 12, facing the Panthers on their home turf in South Tampa.

The Durant Cougars are on a roll, with three wins and no losses. It's a different story for the Brandon Eagles, who lost their third game of the season, hosting the Plant City team at home Sept. 21.

The Eagles were shut out Sept. 21 at home (36-0), extending their losing streak to three games. It was the first conference game for both teams.

For Brandon Photographer, Life as an Eagle is a Family Tradition

Tiffany Hobby graduated in 2007 from Brandon High School, where she can be seen snapping photographs from the sidelines at Brandon Eagles football games. For her family, like so many others, life as an Eagle is multigenerational.

  Taking photographs at the sidelines of the Brandon Eagles football game against the Freedom High Patriots on Sept. 14, Tiffany Hobby had a chance to reflect on what the colors of maroon and white mean to her and to her family. Five years ago she gradutated from the school on Victoria Lane, which in 2014 celebrates its centennial roots. Her sister, Ashley, was on the sidelines, too, as a cheerleader. Their parents? With the boosters, selling concessions, and also Brandon High graduates. Anthony Hobby graduated in 1963; his wife, Shauna Taylor Hobby, in 1965. Brandon High School "has been around forever," as a part of the history of the town, Hobby said. "It's a part of my family's history as well." Hobby said after high school she …
