I’m looking for 2024 schedules not 2023

I’m looking for 2024 schedules not 2023

I thought that was weird. Usually it’s 2 and it’s forced district games that are local. I think one year they didn’t leave Sarasota County 

1968 regular season game Melbourne beat Norland 25-18 after Lynn Blackman for Melbourne busted 2 long touchdowns runs in the 4th quarter to seal the game 

I appreciate you for doing this, on my mother's side of the family my grandaddy went to Richardson(Lake City) and my grandma went to Gifford(Vero Beach), Gifford High is currently Gifford Middle

As you know I research the history of football in the state. I have a specific folder for all the historically black football teams before 1967 when they either closed or joined the FHSAA. As I was researching the teams from Tampa (Middleton, Blake, and Thompson) I stumbled upon Booker T Washington that I had not heard of. Come to find out they are the oldest historically black school to play football in Tampa. Older than the other 3 mentioned. So as I started to research more I came across the yearbook. I was grateful to find it because not only did it confirm the 1st year they started playing football which is sometimes really hard to find, but they showed the results as well. I too caught myself reading the entire yearbook in amazement and even busted out laughing at the goofy dad jokes at the end. Lol. 

@nolebull813 thanks for posting this. I took the time to leaf through the yearbook. It was quite informative, especially for a man originally from Jamaica. From beginning to the end of their journey, the graduating class shrunk by more than 80%. To put that into perspective, that's an alarming but understandable rate for the times. 
I have no idea how that graduating class fared in their lives. WW2 was not that far off; the Great Depression was dead ahead; and the USA was a lot less hospitable to those of us "not blessed" with a certain ancestry. 
I don't know what motivated you to post this, but want to express my appreciation to you for doing so. 

I checked their yearbook. I counted 71 players with at least 24 being black. This site won’t let me upload pictures.

Miami Northwestern was and all-black segregated school and played football from 1955-1966 before integration. They never closed and kept playing till this day. 
 
Mays played football from 1953-1968 before fazing out due to desegregation. (Best season was 1966. Went 11-0 and beat Gainesville Lincoln for the Negro State Championship)
North Dade played ball from 1959-1965 before closing and the went to Carol City or North Miami High 
Miami Carver played until 1965 with Mays picking up most of the key transfers. Probably why Mays was so good in 1966. Lol. Nathaniel “Traz” Powell coached Carver from 1947-1965 winning 5 state titles before moving on to Mays after Carver turned into a middle school. 
 
Booker T Washington is the oldest of the bunch with scores for them tracing back to the 1930’s. Powell played for them in the 40’s. BTW stopped playing football in 1967 all the way to 1998 before resuming in 1999
Dorsey High played ball until 1954. They closed and Northwestern took the 2 colors (blue and gold) and the Bulls mascot. 

What happened to Mays and Carver? Where did their kids go after they closed or merged into other schools? It's a pity Mays did not survive. Willie Mays was an iconic baseball player. 

Didn't know that, now today that game plays much differently lol

Lincoln vs Delaware Valley PA is an interesting one 

You sound butt hurt like your team lost to a team with more talent and better overall at the game of American football 

Haha yeah Woe is me Rick needs to work the kinks out. 

Too funny. Classic “Oh Woe is me” Rick. 

I think he is saying this because he doesn’t want to play any good teams. He won 50-3, 60-18 and 70-12. Don’t feel bad for them. They want more of the same 

Yup. Looks like they were able to force Mainland's hand to keep the rivalry alive. Mainland agreed to move their game against Deland from week 1 to week 7 lol. Deland should have the offense running smooth by then. They are also scheduled to play Eau Gallie as well, who has been begging for a game with Cocoa lol

So your claiming that public schools don't recruit? And you have the nerve to call me clueless!

He’s basically saying he doesn’t want to play any teams who could beat them the  same way they beat teams last year.
