DeSantis signed Senate Bill 58, known as the Teddy Bridgewater Act, allowing middle and high school head coaches to spend up to $15,000 of their own funds to provide student-athletes with meals, transportation and recovery services, a measure tied to Bridgewater’s former coaching at Miami Northwestern amid past private-expense scrutiny.
