Southaven will honor long-time parks and recreation director Mike Mullins with a plaque in Tribute Hall and will also rename Greenbrook Park in recognition of his pioneering service as a volunteer youth sports coach.

Mayor Darren Musselwhite announced on Friday that Mullins, who passed away in June 2024, will take his place of honor on the wall at City Hall which honors special people who have made significant contributions to the city.

“Although our city has been blessed to have so many volunteer coaches and parents whose selfless and tireless efforts have made Southaven special all the way back to our early days, no one played as significant a role in all of it more than Mike Mullins,” Musselwhite wrote on Facebook. 

Musselwhite said Mullins revolutionized the parks and recreation program in Southaven and made it into one of the best in the U.S. Southaven became nationally known for its sports facilities and became a destination for baseball and softball tournaments under his leadership of the parks department from 1999-2014.







Greenbrook Field

Southaven will rename Greenbrook Softball Complex in honor of long-time youth sports coach and parks and recreation director Mike Mullins.


“He helped design and supervised construction of Snowden Grove Park, the Bank Plus Amphitheater, and enhancements throughout the city,” Musselwhite noted. “He was instrumental in making the city the host site of the Dizzy Dean World Series and numerous competitive tournaments for many years which had a significant impact on tourism and economic development in the city.  Many other events enjoyed by citizens and visitors still today were started or influenced by him.”

Mullins began his service to the people of Southaven coaching youth football and baseball for three decades starting in the 1970s. He coached his first baseball team when he was just 16 years-old and notably coached the Steelers at Cherry Valley for 21 years and Team Pepsi for many years also. Before the city even had an official parks program, Mullins volunteered countless hours preparing and maintaining the fields at Greenbrook and Cherry Valley Parks and was often referred to by “Moon.”

“Many citizens will tell you they witnessed him riding a tractor at midnight or sponging a rain-soaked field so the kids could play the next day,” Musselwhite said. “He was known to spend his money for kids whose parents couldn’t afford equipment so the kids could play. “

Musselwhite said Mullins was an even better mentor who taught his players qualities that would help them become successful in their life outside of sports.

“His positive impact on our youth is immeasurable and although he is missed by many, he will never be forgotten,” Musselwhite said.

Residents who commented on Facebook called it a well deserved honor and recalled his dedication to youth sports.

“Everyone certainly knew who he was,” wrote Debbie Smith Sorn. “He was do dedicated.”

“He made a difference in so many lives,” Joan Harmon added.

“Good man and about time Southaven honored him,” wrote Michael McDaniel.

Roger Burns said he had many great talks with Mullins after games at Cherry Valley.

“He always had great advice and I will always be appreciative of it,” Burn commented.

Supreme Court will take up a new case about which school sports teams transgender students can join

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court agreed Thursday to hear a case over state restrictions on which school sports teams transgender students can join.

Just two weeks after upholding a ban on gender-affirming care for transgender youth, the justices said they will review lower court rulings in favor of transgender athletes in Idaho and West Virginia. The case will be argued in the fall.

The nationwide battle over the participation of transgender girls on girls sports teams has played out at both the state and federal levels as Republicans have leveraged the issue as a fight for athletic fairness for women and girls.

More than two dozen states have enacted laws barring transgender women and girls from participating in certain sports competitions. Some policies have been blocked in court.

At the federal level, the Trump administration has filed lawsuits and launched investigations over state and school policies that have allowed transgender athletes to compete freely. This week, the University of Pennsylvania modified a trio of school records set by transgender swimmer Lia Thomas and said it would apologize to female athletes “disadvantaged” by her participation on the women’s swimming team, part of a resolution of a federal civil rights case.

Separately, Senate Democrats in March blocked a Republican push for a national ban.

Republican President Donald Trump also has acted aggressively in other areas involving transgender people, including removing transgender troops from military service. In May, the Supreme Court allowed the ouster of transgender service members to proceed, reversing lower courts that had blocked it.

A recent poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that about 7 in 10 U.S. adults think transgender female athletes should not be allowed to participate in girls and women’s sports at the high school, college or professional level. That view was shared by about 9 in 10 Republicans and roughly half of Democrats.

West Virginia is appealing a lower-court ruling that found the ban violates the rights of Becky Pepper-Jackson, who has been taking puberty-blocking medication and has publicly identified as a girl since she was in the third grade. Pepper-Jackson sued the state when she in was middle school because she wanted to compete on the cross country and track teams.

This past school year, Pepper-Jackson qualified for the West Virginia girls high school state track meet, finishing third in the discus throw and eighth in the shot put in the Class AAA division.

The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled for Pepper-Jackson in two areas, under the Constitution’s equal protection clause and the landmark federal law known as Title IX that forbids sex discrimination in education.

“It’s a great day, as female athletes in West Virginia will have their voices heard. The people of West Virginia know that it’s unfair to let male athletes compete against women; that’s why we passed this commonsense law preserving women’s sports for women,” state Attorney General John McCuskey said in a statement.

Lawyers for Pepper-Jackson, who had urged the court to reject the appeal, said they stand ready to defend the lower-court rulings.

“Like any other educational program, school athletic programs should be accessible for everyone regardless of their sex or transgender status. Trans kids play sports for the same reasons their peers do–to learn perseverance, dedication, teamwork, and to simply have fun with their friends,” the American Civil Liberties Union’s Joshua Block said in a statement. Lambda Legal, which advocates for LGBTQ rights, also is representing Pepper-Jackson.

Idaho in 2020 became the first state in the nation to ban transgender women and girls from playing on women’s sports teams sponsored by public schools, colleges and universities.

The ACLU and the women’s rights group Legal Voice sued Idaho on behalf of Lindsay Hecox, who hoped to run for Boise State University. A Boise-area athlete who is not transgender also joined the lawsuit because she fears the law could force her to undergo invasive tests to prove her biological sex if someone questions her gender.

The state asked for Supreme Court review after lower courts blocked the state’s ban while the lawsuit continues.

The justices did not act on a third case from Arizona that raises the same issue.

DeSantis vetoes millions budgeted for First Coast programs

Gov.

Gov. Ron DeSantis this week vetoed nearly $19.5 million from the state budget that would have benefited a range of programs in Northeast Florida, from nursing training to drainage improvements, traffic control, career programs and youth sports.

The money was among $1.35 billion that DeSantis stripped from the 2025-26 spending plan approved by the Florida Legislature, including $567 million in line-item vetos. The governor signed a $117.4 billion budget Monday.

The vetoes included $6.25 million meant to kick-start plans to return the Ocklawaha River to its natural state by removing the Rodman Dam in Putnam County.

DeSantis’ veto pen also marked through several multimillion-dollar appropriations that would have come to Jacksonville.

He cut $2.66 million of the $4 million lawmakers approved for Jacksonville University’s GROW program, which stands for Graduate, Retain and Optimize a Workforce of Florida Nurses. JU has been expanding its program for accelerated bachelor’s and graduate degrees in nursing since 2021 through partnership with The Mayo Clinic, Baptist Health and Flagler College.

Sen. Clay Yarborough and Rep. Wyman Duggan, both Jacksonville Republicans, originally pushed for $4.5 million to be included for the GROW program in the state budget.

In an emailed statement to Jacksonville Today, the school’s senior director of communications, Matt Harris, said Jacksonville University is “grateful for the continued support from the state and the $1.34 million received for GROW.”

The governor also rejected state funding for two infrastructure projects in Jacksonville requested by Duggan and Democratic Sen. Tracie Davis — $2 million to improve drainage along Armsdale Road, and $1.42 million to cover design and construction costs for a new traffic signal at Edenfield Road and University Boulevard.

DeSantis’ broader vetoes slashed $4.44 million in state funding for local public television stations and $1.3 million for public radio outlets in Florida. David McGowan, president and CEO of WJCT Public Media, said the cut will take about $470,000 in annual state funding from the Northeast Florida PBS and NPR affiliate.

“I am extremely disappointed with the governor’s decision to use his veto authority to eliminate funding for the Community Service Grants which have supported the work of local public television and radio stations across the state, including WJCT Public Media in NE Florida, for decades,” McGowan said in an email Tuesday. “Our work in communities has enjoyed broad bi-partisan support from the Legislature, Department of Education, and the Governor’s Office — including Governor DeSantis.

“Florida’s investment in public media and in WJCT has been a highly effective public/private partnership since the 1970s, yielding impressive returns in early childhood education, public safety, access to local arts and culture, and nonpartisan local news. For WJCT Public Media, the loss will represent approximately $470K per year — funding which has served as part of the foundation of support for our local public service in Jacksonville and beyond.”

(Disclosure: Jacksonville Today is independent and locally owned and operated by WJCT Public Media.)

Here’s a list of other projects and programs vetoed from the state budget:

  • Northeast Florida Career Readiness Catalyst Project for Future Economic Success, Duval, multiple counties (Sen. Jennifer Bradley, Duggan) — $975,000.
  • Walk-Off Charities — Expansion of Youth Baseball & Softball Development Programs, (Sen. Tracie Davis, Duggan) — $750,000.

  • Girl Scouts of Gateway Council Camp Kateri Capital Project, Alachua, multiple counties (Bradley, Rep. Jason Shoaf) — $400,000.
  • Mitigating Food Insecurity for Older Adults in Northeast Florida, Duval, seven-county Northeast Florida region (Yarborough, Duggan) — $400,000.
  • NAMI Family and Peer Support, Duval County (Yarborough, Rep. Kiyan Michael) — $350,000. 
  • Stop Now and Plan — Service Members (SNAP Heroes), Duval County (Bradley, Duggan) — $350,000.
  • The Arc of Bradford County Rural Workforce Capacity Building and Infrastructure, Bradford County (Bradley, Rep. Robert Brannan) — $300,000.
  • Construction Inspection Training Program, Duval County (Yarborough, Daniels) — $250,000.

Supreme Court to rule on state bans on transgender students’ participation in girls’ and women’s sports

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Thursday waded into the legal fight over state laws that ban transgender athletes from competing in girls’ and women’s school and college sports, taking up cases from West Virginia and Idaho.

The court will hear cases involving two transgender students, Becky Pepper-Jackson and Lindsay Hecox, who challenged state bans in West Virginia and Idaho, respectively.

Both won injunctions that allow them to continue to compete in sports. Pepper-Jackson, now 15, takes puberty blocking medication, while Hecox, a 24-year-old college student, has received testosterone suppression and estrogen treatments.

The court’s decision to hear the case comes two weeks after the conservative majority delivered a major blow to transgender rights by upholding a Tennessee law that bans gender-affirming care for young people. In doing so, the court left various legal questions about transgender rights unresolved.

“Categorically excluding kids from school sports just because they are transgender will only make our schools less safe and more hurtful places for all youth,” said Joshua Block, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties Union, who is part of the legal team representing both students. “We believe the lower courts were right to block these discriminatory laws, and we will continue to defend the freedom of all kids to play.”

West Virginia Attorney General JB McCuskey welcomed the Supreme Court’s intervention.

“The people of West Virginia know that it’s unfair to let male athletes compete against women; that’s why we passed this commonsense law preserving women’s sports for women,” he said.

Idaho Attorney General Raúl Labrador, who is defending that state’s law, echoed those sentiments, saying that “women and girls deserve an equal playing field.”

Oral arguments will likely take place later this year, with a ruling expected by June 2026.

The states both enacted bans that categorically bar transgender students from participating in girls’ or women’s sports. More than half the 50 states now have such laws, but legal challenges have not been decisively resolved.

The fight for and against the expansion of transgender rights has become a flashpoint nationwide and was an issue in the recent presidential election, with Donald Trump denigrating Democrats for supporting the effort. His administration has begun to roll back measures taken by President Joe Biden to expand protections for transgender people.

In February, the National Collegiate Athletic Association also changed course, announcing a new policy to limit women’s sports to “student-athletes assigned female at birth only.”

In Pepper-Jackson’s case, a federal judge initially ruled in her favor but concluded in January 2023 that the law was most likely legal and allowed it to be enforced against her. Pepper-Jackson appealed, and the Richmond, Virginia-based 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals blocked West Virginia officials from enforcing it against her.

The Supreme Court in April 2023 rejected the state’s attempt to enforce the law against Pepper-Jackson while the litigation continues, meaning she has been able to continue to participate in school sports, namely cross-country and track.

Hecox, who plays soccer and also runs, similarly obtained an injunction from a district court judge against Idaho officials. She also won on appeal at the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Pepper-Jackson and Hecox both failed to qualify for running teams at their respective schools, according to court papers. Pepper-Jackson did place third in the state for middle school discus and sixth in middle school shot put, losing out to cisgender girls. She finished 67th out of 68 in a cross-country event in eighth grade.

In barring transgender girls from participating in girls sports at the middle school, high school and college levels, the West Virginia law enacted in 2021 says gender is “based solely on the individual’s reproductive biology and genetics at birth.” As such, it says, a female is a person “whose biological sex determined at birth as female.”

The Idaho law, passed in 2020, states that sports “designated for females, women, or girls should not be open to students of the male sex.”

Both cases concern whether such laws violate the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, which requires that the law apply equally to everyone. Pepper-Jackson’s case also raises a claim under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, which prohibits sex discrimination in education.

The Biden administration unveiled proposals on how Title IX applies to transgender athletes, saying that blanket bans would be unlawful but concluding that it may be lawful to limit involvement in competitive sports.

But the the Trump administration has reversed course, with the White House issuing an executive order titled: “Keeping Men out of Women’s Sports.”

In 2020, the Supreme Court ruled that federal law barring sex discrimination in employment protected LGBTQ people, a ruling that angered conservatives. The court is yet to rule on whether the same reasoning applies to Title IX.
