The idea when it began last year was to shine a spotlight on Miami-Dade County’s Greater Miami Athletic Conference and the teams who play in the 305.

With a few changes for the 2022 GMAC Week, something that was frowned upon last season my many schools is now something that is slowly winning programs over.

With Week 9 set aside by all schools in the conference – North vs. South format was set up, matching several programs who do not play each other.

While the No. 1 Miami Central Rockets and the No. 4 Miami Christopher Columbus Explorers are the main event on Friday night with the two unbeatens colliding at Traz Powell Stadium, things get started today – with 11 games being played throughout the county.

Perhaps the biggest first day game will see head coach Max Edwards and his No. 12 Miami Northwestern Bulls (4-3) hosting head coach Philip Simpson and his No. 18 Homestead Broncos (5-2).

The Bulls are now healthy as they proved last Saturday night in a convincing win over Miami Booker T. Washington – while the Broncos limp into the north vs. south matchup on a two-game losing streak.
