Former Knight Darious Williams Thriving in NFL Career

Darious Williams is perfectly content being the Los Angeles Rams cornerback that few people talk about and sparingly talks to the media, even though his path to the NFL is a remarkable coming-out-of-nowhere story.

Really, where do you even begin with the wide range of options of how much the Creekside High product defied the odds?

There’s the part about not being allowed to play football his sophomore year of high school – he transferred from Bartram Trail after Creekside opened in 2008 — because former head coach Greg Stanton only wanted kids who invested time in summer workouts.

Knights Volleyball Set to take on Leon in State Regional Semis

REGION 1-6A

Tallahassee Leon (8-0) at Creekside (17-2). A clash of giants. The Lions, reigning state champions, were pushed to the brink by Fleming Island and had to survive a match point. Leon ended the Knights’ postseason plans in 2015, 2016 and 2019, each time winning in three. But Creekside is playing with more confidence than ever, and fields a pair of all-around stars in Jessie Lary and Jaden McBride in one of Northeast Florida’s best overall combinations. The winner plays Saturday against Niceville or Crestview.

In what many consider to be the greatest win in Creekside Football HISTORY, your CREEKSIDE KNIGHTS defeated the Bolles School 31-24 in Overtime!

Creekside went up 24-21 at the end of the 3rd quarter on a HUGE touchdown pass from Daniel Plummer to Jack Goodrich!

After a field goal with a little over 3 minutes to play, Bolles took Creekside into overtime with the score tied 24-24.

Respect, Coach McIntyre……Respect
