A Seminole County Classic Video


OldSchoolLion

Recommended Posts

Seminole and Lake Howell face off in an old school classic from 1987.  Future Heisman candidate and Pro Bowler Jeff Blake led Seminole at qb.  And a freshman rb (#23) on Lake Howell, Marquette Smith, gave us a glimpse of great things to come.

Seminole made it to the 4A state semifinals that year, where they got thumped by eventual state champion Godby in Tallahassee.  It took Seminole 21 years to get that far in the playoffs again.

Yes, but the next time they did, they won the ship!

Lake Howell probably hasn't been good since Marquette Smith.  They did have Brandon Marshall in the early 2000's but I don't think they were very good then either

 

They were not. Had a few good basketball teams, though, including a state title. I am also pretty sure they have been decent in several other sports (maybe golf or soccer).

Lake Howell also has a very nice stadium and facility.

It is hard to believe that the seniors and juniors in this game are now 50 or above. Life is short.

It's crazy how short it is.  Seems like forever when you are young.  Then you turn 25 and the next week you are 50.

    • 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

    • Just wait till spring is over and the top RB in the area will take his talent to 1 Indian Ave.
