During the City of Homestead’s Jan. 25 Council Presentation meeting, Councilmember Patricia Fairclough-Staggers took the floor to recognize and honor the Homestead High School Broncos varsity football team.
As Councilwoman Fairclough-Staggers alma mater, she was especially proud to do this presentation.

With drive and spirit, the Broncos went above all expectations in representing Homestead Senior High School and the City of Homestead.

Coach Thornton also recognized the great teamwork his assistant coaches made in achieving this win.
“These assistant coaches deserve a lot of credit. We were a team that was going all the way.”
Accolades go to assistant coaches Tony Chatman, Issac Newton, Oscar Clayton, Pat Terry, and George Callender.
