As summer camp opened Monday throughout the state of Florida, there were a few notable transfers that took place in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties.
The two areas which have watched nearly 200 prospects come and go in just the two counties, the last minute push to secure a spot in the state playoffs sparked some impressive moves.
As the season is just a little more than two weeks away, some teams felt a need to strengthen their rosters as the most competitive season in a generation will see basically every state championship contender improve their schedules perhaps like never before.
While schools across the country have solved the major issue with being in the national championship hunt, it all points to strengthening their schedule, and as the opponents get tougher, more talent is needed to compete.
Here are some of the moves made just this past week as the scramble is on to have the best rosters possible:
