Answer #5 is l. Trinity Catholic

Robert Love of Pahokee was 23/37 and set an individual state final record with 502 passing yards against Ocala Trinity Catholic in the 2005 2B title game, but Trinity pulled out a 37-30 win despite giving up nearly 4 times as many yards on offense.  Love threw 4 TD passes of 50 yards or longer, including 3 in a furious third quarter comeback that started with Pahokee down 30-7.  Martavious Odoms caught 9 passes for 188 yards and Tamarcus Porter caught 8 passes for 169 yards.  Only a handful of receivers in history have ever had more than 150 receiving yards in a title game.   Robert Love went to Florida A&M, but ran into problems.

Douglas Cook of University School set a state final record with 43 completions in 61 attempts for 430 passing yards(second highest yardage in state final history behind Love) against Ocala Trinity Catholic in the 2010 2B final, but Trinity pulled out a 56-55 3OT win.  Nick Kutscher set a state final record with 14 receptions for 134 yards and Daniel Braverman had 10 receptions for 94 yards.  University only gained 38 yards on the ground in 30 attempts.  Douglas went on to play at Lincoln University in Pennsylvania.

Answer #3 is b. Bartow

Bartow beat Bolles 14-13 in the 1996 Class 4A title game.  Bartow's program took a hard dive after that win.

Bartow's coach, Danny Rea Smith, had coached previously at St Cloud and was one of only 4 coaches to beat Corky Rogers in a state title game(Ice Harris/BTW, Joe Zaccheo/Miami Pace, John Wilkinson/Cocoa are the others). 

Bolles had won titles in 1990, 1993 and 1995.  Coming into that game, they had a 27-game winning streak, were ranked #1 by USA Today, and had 9 D1 commits, including Chris Reier at qb(who later played for Alabama).

Reier broke his leg in the first few plays which was devastating for Bolles

Beautiful, clear, "Florida cold" weather day game (Daytona Beach). On first drive Bolles looks unstoppable. QB breaks leg inside the 5yd line. Bartow's physical defense makes big play after big play on a now sputtering Bolles offense. Bolles was LOADED with D-1 talent on both sides of the ball.
