Northview Chiefs Receive State Championship Rings (With Photo Gallery)
April 30, 2013
The Northview High School Chiefs received their state championship rings during a ceremony at the school Monday afternoon.
Last December, the Chiefs won the District 1A State Football Championship in Orlando’s Citrus Bowl. It was the first state championship for the school in Bratt, and the only state football championship in Escambia County this year.

“For the first time in school history, you can say you are the state football champions,” Superintendent Malcolm Thomas said as he addressed the football players and student body. “You will always get to keep that pride knowing that you are part of something very, very special.”
Thomas presented a $1,000 donation toward the cost of the rings. Escambia County Commissioner Steven Barry, along with Century Mayor Freddie McCall and Eli and Sarah Miller, presented another combined $1,000 donation.
While every player received their ring Monday, the full bill is not yet paid. Donations are being accepted at the school to provide the rings to students in need.
Also Monday, members of the varsity cheerleading squad were presented with their State Championship Medallions.

To ‘A Fan’, very well put. I was trying to think of something along that line when I saw your comment. That’s a great picture too, William. Really captures the emotions of the players!
A Reward well deserved! CONGRATS & GO CHIEFS!
This is great news! The Chiefs is the team to watch for the next 2 years. I can see a repeat/even a 3-peat.
Those Thomas Twins is the silent weapon on both ends. I’ve been watching them for a while. And “speedy” Robinson, will put that new exclamation point on Wheatley’s spread offense. I can’t wait.. Go Chiefs!
Way to go Chiefs!
