Definitely LG.  I wouldn't have guessed that outcome in a million years especially with all the chatter about which team will run the city of Lakeland.  Maybe that the shot in the arm the Braves need.  Better to lose early than late.

I was also surprised your team Lakeland beat Clearwater by that much. Thought it would b tighter.

Nease and Atlantic Coast beat Ponte Vedra and Mandarin respectively to break long losing streaks to rivals

Looks like the Dreadnaughts stacked & ready this year. 

Given how bad last season went, it's hard to make any big claims. But, it sure does seem to me like they are pretty loaded, certainly with more depth than I can remember. They certainly have several big games upcoming to prove if they're really back.

In another post, it says that Treasure Coast beat American Heritage Plantation. If this is accurate, that would be the upset of the week. TC is a solid 8A team and was able to sneak a win over VB in the recent past. But a win over AHP is a whole new level of success. Could be that unfamiliarity with the single wing offence did AHP in.

Yep they did. 8a is just stacked this year. I thought with the Studs on D, the Pats were the best team in Broward. Great win for the Titans.

Wakulla lost to Ed White 20 - 13.  Wakulla was missing 9 players this week...I guess with covid contact tracing in play it's going to be like this every week.  From week to week you don't know who's going to be missing and what team you're going to be fielding.  Add 6 turnovers to missing players and you can usually count on a loss. lol

& I’m thinking the Commanders are off to a great start. Still are I guess. We better start putting asterisk * after each game.....

What is pretty shocking to me is Buchholz defeating Dunnellon 35-0 at Dunnellon. Dunnellon went 10-2 last season and was in the playoffs with mostly Juniors and Sophomores. They defeated Vanguard twice and North Marion en-route. This season they have mostly the same players and a Senior laden team. All I can say is Buchholz must be pretty damn good to do that to Dunnellon. Dunnellon's Sr QB Trent Townsend had only 32 passing yards the entire game.

    • 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. 
    • 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
