Productive Week for 5A-16

Recommended Posts

 

Cardinal Gibbons held defending 8A State Champion Miami Southridge to 75 total Offensive yards in a 27 - 6 drubbing.   

 

AHP went up to Virginia and defeated Bishop Sullivan Catholic (arguably the best team in VA) 14 - 7 in a defensive battle.

and

Stranahan stunned 7A Blanche Ely.

 

 

on a much lighter note:

Coconut Creek defeated 8A Coral Springs 33-7

Jackson defeated 7A Mourning

 

Hallandale was the only loser falling to 8A Everglades 20- 6 .

Either South Ridge's defense has fallen a lot from last year's or Gibbons made a huge statement!

I think it is several factors including the fact that Cardinal Gibbons hired former longtime and formerly retired Taravella HC Dan Marguriette as OC who ran variations of a  Wing-T for many, many years.  Not sure if or when we may see some of that but with a strong OL, athletic QB, and solid defense, expect Cardinal Gibbons to throw the kitchen sink and more at AHP this year.

Southridge to me still has a loaded roster, even defensively and may be down a tad the real factor to me will be with 8A South being a lot stronger this year, also with what I will respectfully call a "limited" play-calling offense, 'Ridge may have their work cut out or them in 8A 2017.  Deerfield has already flexed their defensive muscle already, and currently are stealing  the 8A Defensive show from Southridge early in the  2017 season.

I agree with this.. But Cardinal Gibbons brought it to Southridge...

I agree with Broward on Southridge's offense. To have as much talent as they do, they struggle when they face good to great defenses. I was at the state championship and the struggled until they called the "throw the ball deep to Mark Pope" play and all was forgotten. If they're gonna repeat, especially in such a loaded 8A region 4, they have to do better offensively.

I agree same with dillard we got gibbons and Deerfield coming up within the next 4 weeks can't wait to see how we fare against them.

    • Perhaps the best RB in Tampa Bay iin 2023 saw his program close, and is looking for a home. If he stays in the area,Venice is a good bet. (Lakeland may be as well).
    • And if that same newsletter asked the Osceola County Sheriff Department, what do you think the response would be? If you asked, members of the Chamber of Commerce? (Essentially a union of businesses) If you asked a group of nurses? If you asked a group of lawyers? Also a union cares about the working conditions of their members, but the working conditions of teachers are the learning conditions of students as well. People are attracted to careers because of the values that come with those careers. Political Parties attract people based on their values. So it shouldn't be surprising that certain professions attract certain people in certain careers. You act as if the principal's first question when we have a 5,000+ teachers shortage in this state is "who do you vote for? And are you a member of the union?"
    • I feel like y'all are always solid so I don't see y'all going no worse than 7-3. Biggest question mark for Cocoa is their O-line since they are only returning 1 and on the defensive side they only return their blue chip edge in their front 7 
    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face. 
    • It's possible that they find their stride by week 5, but at the moment we just don't have the on-paper talent to compete with teams like Miami NW, IMG National, Cocoa, or Bishop Verot. If Venice can find a way to go 7-3 with that schedule I would be happy
