The 7 Most Consistent HS Programs of the Modern Day


OldSchoolLion

Recommended Posts

Since 2004, I believe there are only 7 programs that have won at least 80% of the games they played during that period AND had a winning season every year(winning more games than they lost).  I may have missed one or two.  Let's see.

Who are the 7 programs?   By the way, I am counting forfeits, which might knock a couple high profile programs off the list.:)

2. St. Thomas Aquinas

3.  Mainland

4. Apopka (not sure if they meet the 80%)

5. Miami Northwestern

6. Trinity Christian Jax

7. Lakeland

If I am wrong on Apopka's winning percentage, then perhaps, Osceola - Kissimmee 

I just added to the original post that I am considering forfeits, so that might knock someone off your list.

Didn't Miami Northwestern have a 4-6 season in the early 2010s (I could be wrong but I thought they did

 

STA, TCA, Lakeland are definitely there and I think Mainland is and you know Apopka so that's something I would trust you on

I know Armwood forfeited a state title against Miami Central in 2009 or so. That may knock them off the list if they forfeited multiple games that year due to ineligible players. Ironically, at least one of the players involved was a Dr. Phillips transfer who probably still resided in Orange County.

It was 2011 but Armwood and Miami Central both forfeited the entire season of wins

No, no one acknowledges the forfeited season. it was for a player whose parents forged their US citiezenship. He wasn't even out of zone. Inside source told me DP and Winter Park were the only schools in Orange that submitted that paperwork in 2010. 

By the way 3-5% of people in the US are not documented. If this rule was EQUALLY APPLIED almost every school would fail the FHSAA barometer annually, probably in other sports more-so than football. 

It's not ethical and I'm by no means an open borders kind of guy. 

Therefore DP went 14-1 in 2010. 

I will never acknowledge the 2010 FHSAA stat and others know it's a joke as well. 

DP self-reported it because they had the best athletic director in the southeast US. He caught the issue on a technicality. remember that.

2013-2015 were tough years for the Bulls.  As good as the West is, they have not been the most consistent of programs over the years.  So, they are not on the list.

...some comments

IMG-I typically don't include IMG in these discussions

Oxbridge-I only considered active programs

Armwood and Central had forfeited seasons

Dwyer, Madison County, BTW, St Augustine and Plant have not had winning seasons every season during the specified time frame

Here they are.  Did any of the teams below surprise you?

Lakeland     197-23 (90%)

St Thomas     214-25 (90%)

Bolles     192-32 (86%)

Naples     171-32 (84%)

Cocoa     178-39 (82%)

American Heritage Plantation     166-40 (81%)

Columbus     164-41 (80%)

 

...and some teams with consistent winning seasons who fell short of 80% winning percentage.

Apopka      172-48 (78%)

Bishop Moore     153-47 (77%)

Niceville     152-46 (77%)

Wakulla     150-47 (76%)

Am I mistaken on Lakeland's forfeit situation? I suppose I never really followed up on the final outcome of the 2010-2011 situation.

    • 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.
