Class 6A Top 10

1. Mainland, 3-0, 1
Week 3: Defeated Flagler Palm Coast, 35-10
This Week: vs. Pine Ridge at Daytona Beach Municipal Stadium
Comment: Took care of business with Flagler Palm Coast despite slow start. Should not have a hard time in dealing with Pine Ridge this week as district play opens.

2. Miami Central, 2-1, 2
Week 3: Defeated First Coast, 41-0
This Week: vs. Miami Norland at FIU-North Miami Stadium
Comment: Blew out Miami Killian to bounce back from a huge defeat to DeMatha Catholic the week before. Will face a First Coast team that was upset on the road last week by Gainesville.

3. Armwood, 2-0, 3
Week 3: Defeated Bloomingdale, 49-7
This Week: at Chamberlain
Comment: Armwood steamrolled through Bloomingdale last week and is still perfect on the season. Will open district play against an 0-3 Chamberlain this coming week.

4. Navarre, 3-0, 4
Week 3: Idle
This Week: vs. Choctawhatchee
Comment: Navarre enjoyed the first of two bye weeks off this past week and should be prepared to take on a Choctawhatchee team that has defeated them last three times they have meet including the playoffs. Michael Carter is lost for the season due to a PCL injury, so it will be interesting to see how the Raiders adjust this week.

5. Escambia, 3-0, 5
Week 3: Defeated Pensacola Catholic, 35-10
This Week: vs. Jesuit, LA
Comment: The Gators secured another first this past week – their first win over Pensacola Catholic since 2008. Escambia hasn’t been much of a surprise to us and the winning should continue this week when they host Jesuit out of New Orleans.

6. Heritage, 1-1, 6
Week 3: Idle
This Week: at Eau Gallie
Comment: Heritage got an early bye week, but not sure how much preparation is need for Eau Gallie, a team that Rockledge blew out last week and had only won by a field goal just the week before.

7. St. Augustine, 2-0, 8
Week 3: Defeated Creekside, 35-17.
This Week: vs. Melbourne
Comment: St. Augustine remains undefeated after beating Creekside and will get ready this week to host Melbourne, Joey Wiles former team he coached before coming to St. Augustine, in a non-district tilt.

8. Naples, 1-1, 7
Week 3: Defeated Island Coast, 63-0
This Week: Idle
Comment: Naples will come off a bye week looking at facing an undefeated Gulf Coast team. The Golden Eagles might not find the Sharks much of a challenge despite what the record says.

9. Niceville, 2-1, 9
Week 3: Defeated Godby, 28-14
This Week: vs. Bassfield, Miss.
Comment: The Eagles shrugged off the loss to Escambia from Week 2 and took care of business against Godby. Now they will get ready for this week’s tilt against Bassfield, a three-time defending state champion from Mississippi.

10. Tate, 2-0, 10
Week 3: Idle
This Week: vs. Pensacola
Comment: Tate enjoyed a bye week last week and will get ready to take on longtime rival Pensacola in a non-district tilt. Pensacola has been a team back on the rise, so this game should be filled with fans going crazy for both sides.
