Michael Lev column: Falcons rookie Bijan Robinson is living out his fantasy — starring in the NFL while remaining the humble, grounded person his family raised him to be in Tucson.
The last time a local team won a football state championship was 2015. And while just four Tucson area teams remain, Salpointe Catholic opened its 2023 playoff run last week with the suggestion that it could be the side to end that drought.
