4A Region 1 - An Early Look


OldSchoolLion

Recommended Posts

8 of the 11 teams in the region made the playoffs last year(those with a double asterisk), but only a couple had records worth bragging about.  Even 0-9 Gadsden and 2-6 Rutherford made the playoffs.  5 of the 8 teams were in this region last season (italicized below).   Santa Fe and Bradford both move over from 4A Region 2. 

Raines moves out of the region, but Bolles moves down from 5A after a respectable playoff performance last year.  One would have to think Bolles will dominate the region like Raines did, even in a "down" year.  Team records from last season are listed below.  

**West Nassau 9-3

**Bolles 8-5

**South Walton 6-5

**Marianna 5-5-1

**Santa Fe 5-6

**Bradford 5-6

**Rutherford 2-7

Fernandina Beach 2-8

Bay 1-6

North Bay Haven 0-6

**Gadsden 0-10

Word is the administration at Bolles wants their new hire guy to do well. As there is a lot of pressure on the administration for him to succeed. Heard they have let some kids in they weren't letting in the last few years. 

Been hearing that as well. They would be smart to not just let HS kids in but also MS

Is West Nassau still with that ground and pound offense? We had a playoff game with them in 2009 and their ground offense was so difficult to deal with. Don't believe they ever threw a pass. Are they still a formidable team?

I believe West Nassau is running a mixture of that or they were at least. Saw an interview with their coach saying they were going to an up tempo no huddle offense. They aren't big and nasty like they were that year.

Bolles has snagged the best player from Episcopal and Ponte Vedra's team.

Every time I see this school I think of them being from Bahamas lol

They have made the playoffs last couple of years so to some extent they must be good...... They just  ran into a brick wall called Jacksonville Raines who was too much for any team in the north brackets of the 4A. 

 

Take Raines  out the equation then you might have a state finalist in West Nassau.... 

 

As for now, they have to deal with Bolles and Cocoa.

SMH, Bolles sounds like a team I know.

    • I was actually itching to treat some wager some money on some sports matches that are happening above-board now. I wanted to let you guys identify that I did spot what I ruminate on to be the kindest site in the USA. If you fall short of to get in on the spirit, check it out-moded: [url=https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/]https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/[/url]
    • 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.
