FORT LAUDERDALE – Football fans across the state of Florida and the nation better get used to Chaminade-Madonna holding down the top spot – because the Lions are as good as you will find at the high school level.

While they have proven that they can play this game when everything is on the line – winning four of the past five 3A state titles – on Sunday afternoon, the Lions took home the $5,000 first place prize in the First Round Management 7-on-7 tournament at Carter Park.

With head coach Dameon Jones looking on, the Lions rolled through an impressive field of Miami-Dade and Broward County teams, knocking off Miami Central in the finals.

There is no getting around the fact that this football team is one of the best in the state, heading into the season – no matter what anyone wants to say. They have proven what they can do when games are on the line, and with one of the toughest schedules in the state for the 2022 season, this is a program that can make a major statement.

While Miami Central won the $5,000 first place prize last weekend at the Tutu Atwell event in Miami, they were impressive right down to the wire – along with Final 4 teams Miami Booker T. Washington and Coconut Creek.

In addition to Chaminade-Madonna, Central, Booker T. Washington and Coconut Creek, there were some other teams who made a huge impact on Sunday.

On the rise teams Fort Lauderdale Dillard, Miami Southridge, Miami-Dade Christian and Homestead were steady all day.

Other teams on hand were Davie Western, Miramar, Sunrise Piper, Miami Carol City, Miami Killian, South Plantation and Doral Academy.

The event was run by one-time Miami Carol City High and University of Miami running back Cam Harris, who did a tremendous job, picking the teams and along with his mother and others, made things run smooth.

WEST PALM BEACH - With two weeks before the start of summer/fall practice, over 20 teams headed to Keiser University for a 7-on-7 tournament on Saturday, and in the end Wellington Palm Beach Central won the event, beating Lantana Santaluces in the final game.

While the Broncos are one of the heavyweights in Palm Beach County and throughout the state – with The Kevin Thompson leading the way, it was the team on the other side of the field that became the true story.

The Chiefs finished 1-9 last season and has not been a program that many have been watching for quite some time. But that appears to be changing.

After leading Hialeah Champagnat to five consecutive 2A state title games, Hector Clavijo made the move to Palm Beach County in the off-season, and all spring and summer, he has helped to change the culture.

With several camps, 7-on-7 events and combines, Clavijo and his staff have done exactly what made him successful with the Lions.

While they fell short to a very solid Palm Beach Central team in the finals, the Chiefs got by Port St. Lucie Centennial, Pompano Beach, Port St. Lucie and upended the No. 1 seed Miami Monsignor Pace in the semifinals. Palm Beach Central is stacked with talent on both sides of the ball after finishing 10-1 a year ago.

Among the programs in the Final 4 included head coach Anthony Walker and Monsignor Pace, who reached their fourth Final 4 of the summer, Miami Southridge, which was upset by Port St. Lucie in the quarterfinals under the direction of Pierre Senatus.

Also, Coconut Creek Monarch and head coach Calvin Davis surprised everyone by reaching the Final 4, and Coach Johnny Sloane and his Coconut Creek Cougars, who were the defending champions of this tournament, and winners last week in Miami. Pompano Beach also made the trip north.

LOADED TOURNAMENT

In addition to Palm Beach Central and Santaluces, and the Miami-Dade and Broward schools, the competitive tournament attracted Boca Raton St. Andrew’s, Boynton Beach Somerset Canyons, Deltona, Fort Myers Riverdale and former Plantation and Nova head coach Frank Hepler, North Fort Myers, Green Acres John I. Leonard, Inlet Grove, Jensen Beach, Kissimmee Gateway and Lake Worth Park Vista.

Also, Lehigh Acres East Lee, North Fort Myers, Palm Beach Gardens, Palm Beach Lakes, Port St. Lucie, Port St. Lucie Centennial, Stuart Martin County and West Palm Beach Forest Hill also competed.

So far this off-season, we have talked about the quarterbacks, running backs and offensive linemen in our series to get you ready for the 2022 season.

Now, we take a look at one of the deepest positions in south Florida. Welcome to the world of some of the most talented receivers and tight ends in the country.

It was promised two years ago that the Class of 2023 would have more quality receivers than ever before, and while that statement holds true, others have been emerging during the spring and summer – and have joined an elite group that has already committed to such programs as Ohio State, Pittsburgh, Temple and Miami.

Here is a look at some of the Class of 2023 talent that everyone will have the opportunity to watch this season:

While we all know about the marquee names who have been on the radar screen for a number of months – some well over a year, there are others who have been getting the job done as well.

Prospects such as Keon Adderly (Westland Hialeah), Giovanni Adopte (Miami-Dade Christian), University of Pittsburgh commit Jesse Anderson (Fort Lauderdale Cardinal Gibbons) and way under-the-radar Derrick Bohler (Miami Palmetto).

Prospects such as recent LSU commit Jalen Brown (Miami Gulliver Prep), Temple commit Richard Dandridge (Homestead), versatile Santana Fleming (Davie Western), heavily-recruited Will Fowles (Miami Dade Christian), University of Colorado-bound Isaiah Hardge (Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas) and Ohio State commit Brandon Inniss (Plantation American Heritage) are all at a different level and have been attracting attention for quite some time.

The class also included versatile and under-publicized Xavier Irvin (Miami Booker T. Washington), major talent Andy Jean (Miami Northwestern), impressive Arthur “A.J.” Jenkins (Fort Lauderdale Dillard), clutch and versatile Edwin Joseph (Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna), recent University of Miami commit and soon-to-be five-year varsity starter Nathaniel Joseph (Miami Edison).

Prospects like Pembroke Pines Flanagan transfer Deron Latson (Miami Norland), under-the-radar Jabari Lewis (Homestead South Dade), Antwaan Mays (Miami Gulliver Prep), British Mitchell (Davie Western), dominating Adam Moore Jr. (Miami Northwestern), athletic Julius Pascal (Miami Dr. Krop) and P.J. Paulk (Miami Northwestern) - all on the radar and can make a major impact.

Speaking of major impact, what about recent University of Pittsburgh commit Lamar Seymore (Miami Northwestern), nationally-rated Hykeem Williams (Fort Lauderdale Stranahan) and Miami Hurricane commitment Robby Washington (Miami Palmetto)? All three are huge additions to any program.

THE CLASS OF 2024 ALSO HAS SOME HEADLINERS TO WATCH

If the bar was raised in the 2023 class, you will love what’s ahead in 2024 – with two of the best prospects nationally lining up for head coach Dameon Jones and his stacked Chaminade-Madonna Lions.

Jeremiah Smith and Miami Central transfer Joshisa Trader are as good as you get – and lead the way in a class that is going to produce some future stars.

Also, prospects such as versatile Jacory Barney (Miami Palmetto), nationally-rated tight end standout Colton Heinrich (Fort Lauderdale Cardinal Gibbons), athletic and versatile Ricky Joseph (Miami Beach), the always dangerous James “J.T.” Madison (Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas), the fast-emerging Hollywood Avant Garde Academy transfer LaWayne McCoy (Miami Central), who plays on both sides of the ball and Miami Southridge playmaker Jayquan Reid.

The class also boasts Chance Robinson (Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas), Isaiah Scott (Miami Norland) and Fort Lauderdale Dillard’s Marcus Striggles.

UNDERCLASSMEN CONTINUE TO SHINE

A little bit of a tease for the future with two prospects who are simply off the charts in Homestead’s Cortez Mills for 2025, and Coconut Creek Monarch standout Jabari Brady for 2026.

THE TALENT DOESN’T STOP

In addition to those impressive pass-catchers, there are so many others who have been jumping on the radar all spring and summer.

THE FALCONS FILE 

Head Coach:

2021 Record: 3-5

THE SCOOP

It wasn’t that long ago when this program was sitting on top of thue south Florida football world – winning an 8A state championship.

Even though times have changed and the marquee players have moved on, there is a sense that things are starting to come back – slowly.

Coming off a year where this team got off to a 3-1 start, the way things ended down the stretch became fuel to the off-season fire, and every member of the program started to dig down and see what it will take to get over that hump.

With a number of key prospects coming back – along with some new faces – this off-season has watched each individual make a major effort to get better.

In a team sport, sometimes it takes individuals to work harder which goes a long way in determining the future of the entire program.
