After missing last week due to illness, Joshua Wilson is back with a look at the Class 2A Regional Rankings with complete analysis as we head into Week 3.
REGION 1
1. Jacksonville Trinity Christian, 2-0
2. Jacksonville University Christian, 2-0
3. Tallahassee North Florida Christian, 1-1
4. Quincy Munroe Day, 2-0
5. Tallahassee St. John Paul II, 1-1
6. Tallahassee FAMU DRS, 0-2
ANALYSIS: It is very evident that the top teams are Trinity Christian and University Christian in this region, both with 2-0 starts. Tallahassee North Florida Christian took an unexpected loss to Marianna last week, but could this be a sign that the Eagles are still not back to the form they used to be? Munroe Day is off to a hot start, while St. John Paul II’s win comes via a forfeit. Tallahassee FAMU DRS is only ranked as no other team in the region is playing close to the schedule they have set for this season.
REGION 2
1. Winter Garden Foundation Academy, 2-0
2. Lakeland Victory Christian, 1-1
3. Zephryhills Christian, 0-1
4. Melbourne Holy Trinity, 2-0
5. Orlando Christian Prep, 0-1
6. Halifax Academy, 0-1
ANALYSIS: Foundation Academy is once again the team to beat in the region with their hot start, off to a 2-0. Victory Christian rebounded after a season-opening loss to get their first win of the season. Zephyrhills Christian had the chance last week to make a statement and didn’t against top-tier University Christian. Holy Trinity is off to a hot start as well with their 2-0 record.
REGION 3
1. Seffner Christian, 2-0
2. Naples First Baptist, 2-0
3. Largo Indian Rocks Christian, 2-0
4. Fort Myers Evangelical Christian, 1-1
5. Fort Myers Southwest Florida Christian, 1-0,
6. Tampa Cambridge Christian, 0-2
ANALYSIS: We are stunned just how rough a start Cambridge Christian has gotten off to here in 2021 and thus went from being our top-ranked team to falling all the way to sixth. Seffner Christian has taken over the top of our rankings while Naples First Baptist makes a jump to No. 2. Indian Rocks Christian is also off to a hot start at 2-0 and makes their debut into the regional rankings.
REGION 4
1. Hialeah Champagnat Catholic, 1-1
2. Miami Dade Christian, 2-0
3. Fort Pierce John Carroll, 0-0
4. Fort Lauderdale Westminster Academy, 1-1
5. Belle Glade Glades Day, 2-0
6. Hollywood Avant Garde, 1-0
ANALYSIS: This is likely going to shape out to be the best region in all of Class 2A this year with Champagnat Catholic leading the way bouncing back after a Week 1 loss at Miami Northwestern with a Week 2 win over Delray Beach American Heritage. John Carroll has yet to play a game due to COVID issues, while Westminster Academy has bounced back with a win in Week 2. Glades Day is off to a hot 2-0 start while newcomer Avant Garde is already off to a 1-0 start.
