Dickerson Leads South To 31-20 Win In BCAA All-Star Football Game

By Dave Brousseau

DAVIE – Western High senior running back Damian Dickerson completed his high school career is style on Thursday with 71 yards on eight carries and a pair of touchdowns to lead the South to a 31-20 victory over the North over the South in the 28th annual BCAA All-Start football game at Nova High.

His performance earned the 5’8, 185-pound back the Otis Gray Most Valuable Player award.

“This was amazing,” said Dickenson. “I was grateful for my team and the offensive line. Their hard work helped me get the MVP. The whole team made a difference.”

The final 51 points of the game was the most since the North 45-6 victory in 2015. It also tied for the second most points since the South 44-7 win in 2010.

Tied at seven at the half, the South took a 14-7 lead, a lead they would never relinquish with 7:48 left in the third quarter. The go-ahead points were the result of a Ka’Nard Boucard (Miramar) 98-yard interception return for a touchdown.

Dickerson added his second touchdown with 1:10 remaining in the quarter for a 21-7 lead.

“At the end of the day all the boys got the chance to participate,” said South coach Adam Ratkevich (Western). “This was a case for them to showcase their talent. There were a lot of great plays out here tonight. It was an exciting football game.”

Flanagan quarterback Chance Humphrey completed a 68-yard scoring pass to wide-out Dylan Zaldumbide (South Plantation) early in the fourth quarter that increased the South lead to 28-14.

Coconut Creek running back Jakari Gentles of closed the gap with an 8-yard run with 8:25 left in the final quarter.

Christian Martinez (Cooper City) completed the scoring with a 37-yard field with less than a minute to play in regulation capping the score at 31-20.

Running back Ray Zachariah was named the North Offensive Player of the game with 92-yards on 15 carries, while the Defensive Player of the Game for the North was Alex Gammage of Piper.

“This was a great week, while giving the guys a chance to compete,” said Coconut Creek coach Christopher Yeargin (North).”

Boucard had a pair of interceptions and was named the South Defensive Player of the game. Humphrey got the nod for Offense Player of the Game for the South with 135 passing yards and a touchdown and added 29 yards rushing.

The score was tied 7-7 at the conclusion of the opening half.

Dickerson opened the scoring with a 12-yard run with 8:28 left in the first quarter. The North yevened the score when Dillard quarterback Jaden Chico completed a 10-yard pass to the back of the endzone to Ladarious Smith (Blanche Ely) on the ensuing possession.

St. Thomas Aquinas Finishes On Top – Once Again!

While many felt that Miami-Dade and Broward fell short this season – coming away with just two of the seven state football titles – if you look back at the entire year, this was more successful than anyone would believe.

Yes, for the seventh straight year, St. Thomas Aquinas took home the state title.

The Raiders, who have been one of the best nationally for a long time, captured the 5A state title with a convincing 29-0 win over Lakeland.

While head coach Roger Harriott and his staff were adding another trophy to their overflowing awards case, the job that head coach Mike Smith and his Plantation American Heritage Patriots did was something very special.

When they knocked off Orlando Jones for the second consecutive season, this team captured a title that very few gave them a chance to win. Not with five losses.

The crazy competitive schedule that this program played certainly gave them a major advantage, and they took full advantage of it.

As we close the book on another season, here is a look at how the top Miami-Dade and Broward programs fared:

1 Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas (5A, 14-1). LAST WEEK: The Raiders won for the seventh straight year, 29-0 over Lakeland. SEASON OVER.

2. Miami Northwestern (3A, 13-1). LAST WEEK: The Bulls dropped the final game in dramatic fashion to Jacksonville Raines, 23-22. SEASON OVER.

3. Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna (1A, 11-3). LAST WEEK: The Lions, who were making their 10th straight trip to the title game, lost a 17-14 game to West Palm Beach Cardinal Newman. SEASON OVER.

4. Plantation American Heritage (4A, 9-5). LAST WEEK: The defending state champion Patriots once again came through when it counted, beating Orlando Jones, 33-28. SEASON OVER.

5. West Broward (6A, 12-3). LAST WEEK: In their first ever state finals appearance, the Bobcats were no match for West Boca Raton, losing 31-0. SEASON OVER.

6. Miami Central (3A, 10-2). SEASON OVER.

7. Miami Palmetto (7A, 11-3). SEASON OVER.

8. Miami Southridge (6A, 11-2). SEASON OVER.

STATE FINALS: The State of Florida Was The Big Winner

When states such as California, Texas, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Louisiana and Georgia talk about how great their football is – and there are several hotbeds across the country in those states – when all is said and done, the state of Florida stands alone.

From the Panhandle to the southern tip of Florida, there is no getting around the fact that football is king and athletes and teams continue to prove that every year.

When the 14 teams headed to Pitbull Stadium on the campus of Florida International University over a four-day period, you had prospects, several of them, who will be headed to the next level. Elite talent that fans in nearly every state will have the opportunity to cheer on at the collegiate and professional level.

While fans see these prospects every year and are impressed at the level they compete at, they do not understand the work that goes into become difference makers over a four-month period.

While many of us see the finished product, they have no idea what happens over those eight plus months that these student/athletes aren’t in the spotlight.

From camps to combines, 7-on-7 events, workouts, conditioning and other positives to improving, this is all done when the cameras are not rolling or the media is calling attention to it.

Having been involved in recruiting and the development of football prospects for six decades, the one thing that has not changed is how players work and put in the time to getting better.

One day after the season had officially come to an end, high school football players were back at it – enhancing their craft, competing and already looking at the 2026 season.

As many casual fans will put football on the backburner until next August, those who make this sport special will watch firsthand why Florida continues to keep an edge over the rest of the country.

Here is a look back at the four days in Miami for the 2025 state football championships:

1A

No. 2 West Palm Beach Cardinal Newman (11-3) 17, No. 1 Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna (11-2) 14. The Crusaders had been building toward this state championship for several years – and on their first try – they knocked off the Lions in their 10th consecutive appearance.

2A

No. 1 Sarasota Cardinal Mooney (14-1) 52, No. 2 Jacksonville Bolles (13-2) 28. There was no doubt that Cardinal Mooney was one of the best teams in Florida, and when all seven games were completed, the consensus from the media and analysts on hand, they were one of the best teams of the 14 who competed.

3A

No. 2 Jacksonville Raines (14-0) 23, No. 1 Miami Northwestern (13-1) 22. While this was a shocker, let’s keep in mind that the Vikings were soundly beaten in this contest a year ago, and they made a commitment to getting better – and turned out to be the only perfect team this season. The Bulls had their chances.

4A

No. 3 Plantation American Heritage (9-5) 33, No. 1 Orlando Jones (12-3) 28. You can put away your pens and ballots; Mike Smith is the overwhelming Coach of the Year. Losing two of their best players and several other obstacles along the way – with the toughest schedule in the state. Five losses or not, the Patriots defended their title.

5A

No. 1 Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas (14-1) 29, No. 3 Lakeland (12-3) 0. Seven straight state titles for one of the premier programs in the country. The Raiders never start the season hoping to win. They know they have a huge advantage in every game they play.

6A

No. 3 West Boca Raton (13-2) 31, No. 4 Pembroke Pines West Broward (12-3) 0. After losing to Bergen Catholic, New Jersey and 1A state champion Cardinal Newman, there was no way the Bulls would be able to repeat at state champs. One of the best defenses in the state of Florida said otherwise!

7A

No. 2 Lake Mary (12-3) 28, No. 1 Vero Beach (14-1) 27. By now, you watched the final play of the game over and over again, and keep asking yourself, how did the Rams pull this game out. One of the most exciting finishes ever gives this program its first ever state title.

American Heritage-Orlando Jones 4A Rematch; Unbeaten Vero Beach Takes On Lake Mary

CLASS 4A - No. 3 Plantation American Heritage (8-5) vs. No. 1 Orlando Jones (12-2). Ever since Malachi Toney and the Patriots walked out of Pitbull Stadium with a 41-31 decision last year in the title game, this was the rematch that many pointed to.

While head coach Mike Smith and his team took on the challenge of having one of the toughest schedules in the state, they never figured that several of their top players would go down with injury. But still, even with five losses, they are ready to defend as they roll in on a four-game winning streak, including a 620-mile road win in the state semifinals against Fort Walton Beach Choctawhatchee.

As for the Tigers and head coach Elijah Williams, that setback last December was a rallying point all off-season and into 2025.

They head to Miami on a 10-game winning streak and are focused to take home a title and finish off the business that they left on the field last year.

This is a team loaded with talent on both sides of the ball – and will provide a stern test for a program who have played two teams (St. Thomas Aquinas & Chaminade-Madonna) that are in the state finals this season.

CLASS 7A - No. 2 Lake Mary (11-3) vs. No. 1 Vero Beach (14-0). While these two programs were among the best in their class, neither may have been on your bingo card when the season began.

For head coach Scott Perry and the Rams, the way the 2024 season came to an end against Venice and several key losses, it was an uphill climb to get back to the state title game.


The one thing that saved this team was a schedule that included two state finalists (Jacksonville Raines – 3A and Lakeland – 5A), which got this team ready for the big stage once again, and they come south on a roll, winning six straight and scoring over 30 points per game.

Speaking about scoring points, the unbeaten Indians of Vero Beach head into the state title game having scored 40 points or more in nine straight games.

Under the direction of longtime head coach Len Jankowski, this team has been waiting for this moment since 1981 – and while they have come close through the years – they broke through with a thrilling double overtime win against Miami Palmetto to get to south Florida.

West Boca Raton & West Broward In 6A and The 3A Rematch Between Raines & Northwestern On Day 3

6A FINAL - No. 4 Pembroke Pines West Broward (12-2) vs. No. 3 West Boca Raton (12-2). Coming into the state playoffs, football experts across the state felt they had it all figured out. West Broward and head coach Brian McCartney would fold under pressure. Well, the Bobcats are still around and making their first ever trip to the championship game.

This is a program that was tested early by national powers Corner Canyon, Utah and Camden County, Georgia, but since those two games to start the season, this is a team that has taken it one week at a time and are ready.

On the other side of the ball, the Bulls who were in the same position as their opponent this season. They reached the finals for the first time under head coach Dylan Potts and were underdogs to Kissimmee Osceola, but in the end, dominated and finished off a perfect season.

While this season has been filled with some challenges, they showed why they are once again in this position after pulling off a huge upset on the road against Seffner Armwood to return to Pitbull Stadium to defend their title.

3A FINAL - No. 2 Jacksonville Raines (13-0) vs. No. 1 Miami Northwestern (13-0). Be careful what you wish for – and from the time that the Bulls ran the clock on the previously unbeaten Vikings to the start of this season, the focus for head coach Donovan Masline, a Raines graduate, and his football team was to get back to this game and show the state and nation that what happened last year will not repeat itself.

This team has dominated all 13 opponents, outscoring the teams 657-69 and showcasing plenty of speed and elite prospects. Remember, their quarterback is a major weapon with his legs and arm.

But saying that you will change the outcome of last year and actually doing it are two different things. First year head coach Jaquatin Victrum and his guided this national power back to this title game with a powerful offense that has average over 50 points per game and has weapons all over the field.

To repeat, this team has to have a fast start and maintain for four quarters.
