Keishaud White, No. 5 on the Desert Vista High School Thunder football team, kneels at the southeast corner of the field before the first game of his senior year.

He’s praying — and in the audience, so is his mom, Keisha Culver.

“I just keep it in my prayer that he comes off the field the same way he went on and that’s unscathed, unharmed,” she said.

This is also Keishaud’s first game back after tearing his meniscus last season.

Minutes later, she lets out a cheer.

Shilpi Ranjan, owner and instructor of EZCompliments Indian cooking classes, will be cooking with lentils and a hint of traditional Indian spices.

MESA, AZ (3TV/CBS 5) –

For a couple in Mesa, the eclipse wasn’t the only major event happening on Monday morning. They also had a baby.

Erica Tameron gave birth to Samuel at 11:01 a.m. Arizona time, just minutes after the peak of the solar eclipse.

The boy wasn’t supposed to be born for a couple of weeks.

“She was in shock,” the father said.

Tameron couldn’t believe it was happening during the eclipse.

“And my doctor was a little upset that she missed it but she showed up to deliver my baby instead,” Tameron said.
