  • Mayor Ken Thurston issued a proclamation declaring Monday, February 8th as Jordan Battle Day. Jordan came up through the Lauderhill Lions football program before he earned a football scholarship to the University of Alabama. He plays as a Safety/Defensive Back, and just participated in the National Championship game where U of A defeated Ohio State 52 to 24. Way to go, JORDAN!
