GULF SHORES, Ala. — The Gulf Shores High School Dolphins held spring football practice in full pads on Thursday at the school.

This is the 5A Dolphins' first spring training session under new head coach Ben Blackmon, who was hired last month after spending four years as coach at Greenville. Blackmon replaced Mark Freeman, who left the school after two years to fill the vacant head coaching position at Spanish Fort.
