This is the one I'm 100% positive I know the answer to, but out of respect. I won't spoil it. A hint would be it also starts with a C.

I'm going to take a guess at #1. Was it St. Leo? St Leo in Pasco county is now a college only but once both a high school and a college.

That’s right!! They been playing since at least 1924 and were Jesuit’s main rival. I believe they stopped fielding a high school team in the 60’s
