This past weekend in Tallahassee, there were 18 schools – five from Miami-Dade and Broward Counties who played for a state title.
With the off-season starting over the next few weeks, with camps, combines and 7-on-7 events on the horizon, the focus at Bragg Memorial Stadium on the campus of Florida A&M was on some prospects who made a splash for their respective teams.
From state champions St. Thomas Aquinas, Chaminade-Madonna and Christopher Columbus to runner up programs Miami Norland and Homestead, there were so many elite players who showcased their skills for college coaches, media members and recruiters.
Here are five prospects who caught the eye of several on hand:
2024 - Blake Brewer, OL, 6-2, 270, Miami Christopher Columbus. From the end of the 2022 season to last Friday afternoon, here is a talented player who had the chance to make an impression as a quality lineman. Someone who was easily one of the most technical at the position. The two-time defending 4M state champs benefitted from having this young man up front.

2025 - Andreus Madison, WR, 6-1, 190, Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas. Every season there are new faces who emerge, and on a team like the five-time defending 3M state champion Raiders, quality prospects seem to pop up. Here is a talented young man who stepped up in the state title game to give this program a huge boost and showed the even though St. Thomas is losing some gifted players this year, there is indeed a bright future – as usual!

2024 - Anthony Mattison, LB, Miami Norland. On a team stacked with elite performers, here is a senior who turned it up in the title game against Tampa Berkeley Prep. His 12 tackles kept this team in the game until the end. With the focus on many other talented defensive players, he had some impressive games down the stretch in the playoffs.

2024 - Eduardo Nunez, LB, 6-1, 210, Homestead. Not only did he step up down the stretch in the playoffs for the Broncos, but this is a gifted talent that was one of the best defensive players in south Florida. He was way under-the-radar, and as we said in the past, whatever college brings him will benefit in a major way. Led the team in tackles for two straight seasons.

2024 - Gavin Shepard, CB, 5-11, 175, Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna. When you watched the Lions play this past season, you had difference makers in every direction and on either side of the ball. This is a gifted talent who stepped up all season and was one of the reasons that this team was one of the best in the country. Because he had some of the best receivers and an explosive offense to go against every day in practice it gave him a chance to get better all the time. Has an opportunity to be special at the next level.
