Tampa Area outlook

Recommended Posts

Tampa Bay Area (no Polk included) could be a toss up this season. Jesuit, TBT, Armwood, CCC, Lakewood, Tampa Catholic, Gaither are all pretty even. I don’t think they’ve got any State title contenders but overall the season should be fun to watch because of the parity….thoughts???

Just keep telling yourself that Armwood isn’t a threat in 3M. Maybe it will come true. Not! They return 16 starters from last season. Can’t wait to see what they do against Venice week 1.

Armwood looks better on paper. 16 returning starters and a very good offensive line. They should be favored over TBT until proven otherwise. 

That’s the thing though, TBT did prove otherwise. The have beaten Armwood the last few times they played. So it’s on Armwood to knock them out. Quietly Plant could be a player this year too. Not a state title threat, but a regional final could be on the radar.

I think Clearwater bounces back.  I also think Calvary Christian could make a run.  I also know one thing is for sure and that East Lake shot it's wod this past season and look for them to crash hard in 2023.  Of course they could always get some "lucky" transfers in like last year so we will see (their best player in 2022 was a transfer and huge impact and I'm still salty about it because he was from PHU lol).

Excuse me, sir, but those are all Pinellas County teams.   This is a "Tampa Area outlook" thread.   :lol::lol::lol:

(OK, I guess Pinellas and even Pasco are "Tampa Area").

    • Went to the Friday jamboree at Palm Beach Gardens. Miami Norland, Coconut Creek, Delray Atlantic and Fort Pierce Westwood played.  Norland edged Creek 6-0 in 2 quarters on a TD pass with around 10 seconds to go in the opening segment. Up next was Creek v Westwood. Creek got out to a quick 13-0 lead, but Westwood settled in and cut it to 13-7 and had a good shot to tie or win at the end.  Norland v Atlantic was next and in an entertaining 2 quarters, Norland came away with (IIRC) a 27 13 win that featured a lot of big plays.  Atlantic and Westwood finished the evening, pretty much dominating things and leading 20-6 when we left with around 4 minutes to go.  Random thoughts - I thought Norland was the best team by a decent margin. Creek played them tough, but couldn't get anything going at all on offense against Norland OR Westwood. Atlantic's offense was productive, especially the passing game. Westwood shot themselves in the foot multiple times with penalties (an OPI wiped out a TD pass and a defensive holding wiped out an interception) and turnovers (threw two pick sixes). Still, Westwood has some size up front and some decent skill people. Jabari Monds had a nice 4 quarters of action. Side note - Why in the world did they start this at 4:00 on a day where it was 93 with a heat index of 106? They could've started at 6:00 and still got everything finished by 10:30.  I thought about going back in the morning for the Treasure Coast, Palm Beach Gardens, Miramar, Hialeah and Homestead segment, but it started at 8:00 and I was zapped from sitting in the heat. Being an old man sucks sometimes.
