Thank you nolebull813. Like I said, I always enjoyed visiting stadiums in Seminole County whether it was Lyman, Lake Brantley, Lake Howell, or Sanford. I don't believe that I have ever visited Lake Mary or Winter Springs stadiums, but I am sure that they are very nice as well.

I have History for new Smyrna Beach going back to the 50s complete.  They started playing football in the early 20s. From the 20s-50s is incomplete. 

 Here’s a cool Volusia county football fact. 

Mainland High was called Daytona Beach High back in the early 20’s when they started playing football. I believe 1921 was theirs first year. Someone may correct me if they have something more accurate. 

Now Seabreeze High first fielded a team in 1923 and only played 2 years before combining football teams with Daytona Beach High from 1925-1941. 

So for 17 years, kids would go to different schools but play for one team. Lol.
