JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — It took 60 plus years, but Baldwin football finally won its first playoff game in program history last year. 

"Monkey off the back really, you know you're not used to making it, you want to get better. If you're not getting better then you're kind of getting worse, don't want to be stagnant," Indians head coach, Robert Shields, said. 

Shields and the Indians are taking the momentum of last year's playoff win over Marianna into this season. 

Baldwin has a young roster that features a quarterback competition between Carnell Bowens and Jalen Hitchens and a burgeoning offensive line.

The Indians will face Englewood in their spring game Thursday night. 

"See what the live bullets tell you, it's one thing to do it in practice, but you got to do it against someone else for it to matter," Shields said.
