Moments after his team beat Oakland Park Northeast, 54-0, last week to move to 4-1, South Plantation head football coach Rod Williams and his Paladins quickly turned their attention Fort Lauderdale Stranahan – the next opponent.
The success that this program is achieving is certainly new to a team that has not enjoyed this time of year.
In just the past decade, they have had nine losing season and posted a 30-66 record. Only the 2022 season watched this team post a winning (7-3) mark.
THIS IS A GROUP THAT HAS WORKED VERY HARD
Achieving the success that this program has been able to put together this season has not come over night.
Here is a look at some of those difference makers so far this season:
CLASS OF 2026
Patrick Charles, DB, 5'11 178.

When veteran head football coach Tim “Ice” Harris took over at Mater Academy Charter earlier this year, the objective was to turn this program into a power among 5A schools.
With his coaching staff from Miami Booker T. Washington following him to Hialeah Gardens the process has been escalated, and tonight (7:00) when they take on North Miami, the Lions (2-0, 5-0) at Milander Stadium in Hialeah this program has an opportunity to move into first place all alone in District 16-5A play.
With three consecutive shutouts, this is not only a program that has made some noise locally, but the state of Florida is starting to watch a program that has been impressive – with several top-flight prospects making a major impact.
YOUNG PIONEERS HOPE TO SHARE THE SPOTLIGHT
While much of the attention will be paid to Mater Academy and the success they have achieved in a short period of time, head coach Gerald Cox and his North Miami squad had hoped to make this evening’s contest a battle of the unbeatens, but they dropped a tough game last week to Fort Lauderdale Calvary Christian Academy.
While college football will take the spotlight on Saturday, Mater Academy and North Miami will end Week 6 with a district game that could end up telling plenty come state playoff time.

Through the many years he was head football coach at Plantation High School, Frank Hepler guided the Colonels to many district title and regional appearances.
This evening while Plantation (0-0, 3-2) will play one of its biggest games of the season against defending 4A state champion and district champion Plantation American Heritage (0-0, 1-3), the school will give back to Hepler, a Plantation alum, at 7:00 at a field (PAL) that he has guided this program to many big games. He will receive his “Red Coat” during the Hall of Fame induction.
In Hepler’s 14 plus years (1991-2005) at Plantation, he led his teams to 135 wins, 10 district championships and produced many elite players – including current head coach Darrell Strong. Among others include Al Blades, H.B. Blades, current Cocoa head football coach Ryan Schneider, current University of Miami receivers coach Kevin Beard and so many others.
In addition to coaching at Plantation, Hepler also coached in Georgia as well as at Davie Nova and Fort Myers Riverdale High Schools.
PATRIOTS HAVE HAD A TOUGH START
When you play one of the most challenging schedule in the state, you take your chances – and while head coach Mike Smith and his Patriots are 1-3, they have played some of the elite programs in the state and nation.
They come into tonight’s meeting with a chance to turn things around and make a push toward defending their state title in December – with Southwest Ranches Archbishop McCarthy and Miami Norland coming up in district play.

To say the past two weeks have not gone as the Miami Norland Vikings had planned is a major understatement.
The Vikings (0-0, 2-4) were the team that many felt would give defending state 4A champion Plantation American Heritage a run this season in district play. But after convincing losses to Miami Northwestern (49-21) and Delray Beach Atlantic (43-20), their season could hang in the balance tonight (7:00) when they play host to Southwest Ranches Archbishop McCarthy (0-0, 4-1) in what is now a key district contest at Traz Powell Stadium.
This has indeed been a crazy season for first year head coach Tyronn Johnson and his team – after blowing a 22-point lead in the opening game and losing to defending state 7A runner up Lake Mary, 30-29.
They rebounded with wins against rival Carol City and Homestead South Dade, only to see everything fall apart in convincing losses.
HUGE GAME FOR THE MAVERICKS AS WELL
While Norland is trying to find itself and rebound with a district win, first year head coach Jake Pew and his Archbishop McCarthy team can certainly make a statement with a win.
This is a team that started out with a huge Broward National Showcase win against Cardinal Gibbons but dropped a game to 1A Miami True North. A win this evening would be huge for the program with American Heritage and Plantation still left to play in the district.

When the season began and the experts who follow high school football looked at the top teams in Class 1A, the usual teams were at the top of the list.
National powerhouse Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna was talked about – for good reason. So were Miami True North Classical Academy and Miami Archbishop Carroll, who have been programs who have continued to gain momentum throughout recent seasons.
As those teams were talked about as possible playoff programs that may have the chance to close the gap with Chaminade, there was a team that was left out of that conversation. A school that had been in that conversation in the past.
In the first month of the season, while many schools have stepped up, one school has quietly made a huge impact, posting a 5-0 record and outscoring the opposition, 189-13.
For veteran head coach Patrick Wennin and his Warriors, this season has certainly unfolded as one that has directly put this program in the spotlight.
It is a team that has senior leaders and underclassmen who continue to make an impact:
CLASS OF 2026
Austin De Moya, LB. Another of those experienced prospects that has led by example with 28 total tackles, six tackles for loss and 1 sack in five games.

MIAMI-DADE/BROWARD INFORMATION YEAR-ROUND. https://larryblustein.com/
For the past 55 years, we have spent more time on football fields than anyone in the country. From games to practices, camps, combines and 7-on-7 events, we get to as many events as possible to see the athletes LIVE.
