As we have reached the halfway point of the 2021 high school football season, more and more athletes continue to emerge.
Every week in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties, there are impressive talent who have stepped into the spotlight – and many are underclassmen.
It’s all about competitive matchups this coming week – and the Top 20 will once again reflect the results.
With No. 1 Cardinal Gibbons facing a major gauntlet over the next month, it all starts this Friday night at home against No. 6 Plantation American Heritage.
With games being shifted to today and further along in the season, Week 5 was truly one of those were some good games were shifted around.
In between the lightning and rain, there were some games played that turned out to be very interesting for programs who needed that spotlight.
Once again this evening, south Florida will be rolling out the welcome mat for some of the top games in Florida.
While that much-awaited game between 3A power Chaminade-Madonna and two-time defending 2A state champion Champagnat Catholic was called off due to Covid, there are other games to keep an eye on as well – involving top teams.
No. 11 North Miami Beach at No. 2 Miami Central (Traz Powell), 7:30. We know the Rockets are a huge favorite against the Chargers, but this is a district game, and while NMB may not have the depth to stay with this impressive program, we will at least see plenty of future college talent on both sides of the ball. Head Coach Roland Smith and his team can definitely move closer to wrapping up a district title.
No. 7 Miami Killian at Miami Carol City (Milander), 7. The Cougars are on a roll, and since losing to Miami Gulliver Prep in the kickoff classic, head coach Derrick Gibson and his team have found new weapons on both sides of the ball. They will indeed be a force that the Chiefs are not ready for. A Thursday game that will give fans a chance to see a Killian team that has turned into a true contender in 5A.
