Twenty-eight years ago, Loren Johnson finished up his senior season at Miramar High before heading off to Virginia Tech to play football and get an education.

On Friday night at 7:30, Johnson makes his return to the high school and city where it all began – as the Patriots will play host to Johnson’s Highland Springs, Virginia powerhouse in the Broward County National Football Showcase – Presented by the Broward Educational Foundation.

The Springers are easily one of the most successful programs in Virginia, and Miramar head coach A.J. Scott and his team fully understand the assignment. Scott actually played against Johnson when he attended Hollywood McArthur, so now they get the chance to coach against each other.
