After three games this season, the Miami Lake Barbara Goleman Gators are 2-1 and still searching for an identity.
When this team kicks off on a rare Wednesday at Traz Powell Stadium against 0-3 Hialeah Gardens, it will begin a seven-game stretch that will include three key district games – two on the road.
For veteran head coach Ariel Cribeiro and his team, the non-district games – like tonight – will only serve as a tune up for a run at another district title.

As we have watched over the first four weeks of the high school football season in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties, this year will indeed be competitive.
No longer are teams not matching up with the best in the two counties, and while early on, many feel they should be rated higher, by the end of the season everything will play out.
With Top 20 programs squaring off against each other all season, when the year comes to an end, like always, we will have a true No. 1 team.
Remember, strength of schedule means everything, so if you have had a rough start and are still rated, it only signals that you are facing elite competition and should never, ever be penalized for stepping up to the plate.
As we move quickly along in this season, here is a look at the way Miami-Dade and Broward schools look after Week 4:
1 Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas (5A, 3-1). The Raiders won their third straight, 45-6, over Davie Western. THIS WEEK: 9/19 - @ No. 17 Hollywood McArthur. NEXT WEEK: Bye.

Week 4: Huge Games Will Test Local Teams. https://larryblustein.com/news/week-4-huge-games-will-test-local-teams
Once again on Monday night the South Florida High School Sports Radio Show took center stage with seven impressive guests.
Each and every week, the FM 104.3 WQAM radio program attracts the newsmakers in high school sports, recruiting college sports – not only locally, but throughout the country.
The show gives listeners an opportunity to hear about college football programs statewide from the media that cover them. It also focuses on the coaches who use the state of Florida – Miami-Dade and Broward Counties in particular.
The show, which has run for nearly two decades, has become a popular listen for recruiting fans as well as high school sports purists, focusing on coaches and players in all sports.
Here is a look at the way Monday went:
No matter if it’s high school or college, it’s a new season and surprises will happen. Charles Fishbein from Elite Scouting Services talked about recruiting and the transfer portal.

While they finished 11-2 and came up with a post-season playoff win, head coach Helder Valle and his Miami Immaculata LaSalle football team felt that they didn’t finish what they started.
Usually when you win double digit games, it means that you take home a district title, but that didn’t happen. They lost to Miami Booker T. Washington during the season, ending their hopes of winning a district. To make matters worse, they were knocked out of the playoffs in the second round of the state playoffs by the Tornadoes.
This past week, the Royal Lions beat that same Booker T. Washington team convincingly, 31-0, and moved closer to winning their first district title since 1974.

When Tyronn Johnson took over as head coach at Miami Norland, the one-time Miami Northwestern standout and former athletic director accepted a challenge that would include one of the toughest schedules in the state of Florida.
With some of the top teams in the state on this impressive schedule, loading up was something that would be needed, especially competing in a district with defending 4A state champions, Plantation American Heritage and two other teams – Plantation and Southwest Ranches Archbishop McCarthy – who both made the state playoffs a year ago.
Part of that schedule of state-rated programs would included this evening’s (7:30, Traz Powell Stadium) matchup with the defending 3A state champion Miami Northwestern Bulls, who like Norland, has a first-year head coach Jaquatin Victrum that took over for Teddy Bridgewater.
Both coaches are replacing icons who came back to coach their alma mater – much like the veteran Daryle Heidelburg did, coaching his school for over two decades.
The clash tonight is indeed one of the best in the state with two teams that are loaded with elite talent and both have their eyes on the grand prize in December at Pitbull Stadium right here in Miami.
