Well, we are off and running here in the 2023 high school season and already you can start to see things taking shape.
As we have said before – with so many head-to-head matchups and amazing games over the first six weeks of the season, you can expect to see many teams move up and down in the Top 20.
Already, programs such as Miami Norland, American Heritage, Booker T. Washington, Miami Palmetto, Plantation and Miami Southridge flexed some muscle in the opening week of the season.
We seem to have to repeat this every ranking we post, but what you see is not the important list of teams. That will come in the last week of December when everyone will play themselves in or out of the elite programs in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties.

Transfer Season Heats Up In Miami-Dade & Broward. https://larryblustein.com/news/transfer-season-heats-up-in-miami-dade-broward

If south Florida wanted the spotlight shining on them in the first week of the 2023 high school football season, they certainly lived up to all that pre-season billing.
Whether it was at games throughout the region and state – or at the second annual Broward County National Football Showcase – teams and players showed why south Florida will once again rule the state – with many teams sending a valuable message.
Speaking about the showcase, once again that national attending was evident, especially on Saturday when ESPN and national coverage saw head coach Dameon Jones and his Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna Lions exploded in the second half and beat national power Baltimore St. Frances Academy, 35-14.
Even though St. Thomas Aquinas saw its nearly two-year winning streak come to an end in a 20-7 setback to Bellflower, California powerhouse St. John Bosco, the Raiders and head coach Roger Harriott found out what was needed to make an amazing run at winning another state title.
One of the programs who has had a rough week is head coach Mike Smith and his Plantation American Heritage Plantation, where one of its players nearly lost his young life last week, only to be saved in this life changing evening.
American Heritage rallied and beat St. John’s Prep School of Washington, D.C., capping off the showcase with a 45-20 win.
Other showcase games saw Davie Western and head coach Adam Ratkevich slosh their way to a 14-10 win over Georgia power Milton. Speaking of Georgia, Coconut Creek’s Monarch High and head coach Calvin Davis put it all together in a 50-42 win over Cedar Creek.
Head Coach Matt Dubuc watched his Fort Lauderdale Cardinal Gibbons Chiefs come from behind to beat Cardinal Gibbons of Raliegh, North Carolina, 28-21.
Rounding out the 14-team event were the Miramar Patriots as head coach A.J. Scott and his Patriots hung tough with former Miramar standout Loren Johnson and his Virginia power Highland Springs – losing, 20-14.
NORLAND GETS EVERYONE’S ATTENTION
All off-season, there had been talk that Miami Norland and head coach Darryl Heidelburg would be a team that would not go easy in Class 2M.
On Friday night the Vikings opened the season in a place where the home team had won 95 percent of its home games in the past decade – and were coming off an unbeaten 4S state championship season.
The Vikings put it on the Dreadnaughts, scoring early and often and came home 1-0 with a convincing 48-34 decision.
OTHER LOCAL POWERS START THEIR SEASON OFF
As Norland and the showcase teams had plenty of the spotlight, and for good reason, other state-rated Miami-Dade and Broward schools also had their opportunity to get off to a 1-0 start.
Defending 4A state champion Miami Christopher Columbus and head coach Dave Dunn were on the road and beat a very sound Clearwater Academy International squad, 28-21
One of the programs that everyone will be watching, head coach Tim “Ice” Harris and his Miami Booker T. Washington Tornadoes beat Miami Killian 31-7.
Coach Mike Manasco and his Miami Palmetto Panthers showed how good they will be this season, coming away with a 13-12 victory at defending 3M state runner up Homestead.
Miami Southridge has built into a contender, and head coach Pierre Senatus and his Spartans rolled to a 43-14 against Miami Jackson.
Plantation and veteran head coach Steve Davis is one of those teams that a lot of people are sleeping om this season, but the Colonel’s 51-0 win against Hallandale will get the attention of many in 3M.
It was a tough opening for first year Miami Northwestern head coach Michaelee Harris, who saw his Bulls commit way too many penalties in a 19-13 road loss to Vero Beach 19.
WE ARE UNDER WAY
In addition to those games, south Florida was indeed busy on Week 1. Despite No. 1 Miami Central having the first week off as they get set to play at top-rated Las Vegas Bishop Gorman later this, there were some teams that jumped out to a 1-0 start.

The following week after his team opened the 2022 season with tough loss to Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna in the inaugural Broward County National Football Showcase, St. John’s College Prep head coach Pat Ward told the organizers that he wanted to come back.
The experience of playing in an event that was gaining national momentum was something that veteran coach wanted for his players and coaches, and he will make his return with his Cadets as part of tripleheader Saturday.
The 7:30 kickoff on FloSports will head to Plantation American Heritage as head coach Mike Smith and his Patriots look to continue the domination they started in last year’s event – beat Los Alamitos of California handily.
The showdown promises to put an exciting cap on what has been another amazing production in Broward County – with 2024 already being planned out as they largest talent showcase yet.

Broward County National Football Showcase – St. John Bosco vs. St. Thomas Aquinas. https://larryblustein.com/news/broward-county-national-football-showcase-st-john-bosco-vs-st-thomas-aquinas
It's the most anticipated matchup of all seven games in the 2023 Broward County National Football Showcase.
It’s east vs. west. Powerhouse vs. powerhouse. Nationally ranked vs. nationally ranked.
More than bragging rights will be on the line on Saturday afternoon at 4 p.m. when Coach Jason Negro and his Braves, last year’s national champions, square off with head coach Roger Harriott and his Raiders.
With one win in the books already for Bellflower, California’s St. John Bosco, the objective will be to slow down a team that has not lost in 24 games – and is riding a four-year state championship run on their St. Thomas Aquinas’ home field.
It simply does not get any better!

While this 12 noon ESPN matchup on Saturday at St. Thomas Aquinas might have lost some of that national punch, this contest is still one that you will want to watch.
After dropping an 18-0 decision to Buford, Georgia to open the season, St. Frances Academy heads to the Second Annual Broward County National Football Showcase with something to prove – and they have the talent to accomplish that.
This program has been able to make a splash from coast-to-coast and will be ready on Saturday to get back on track.
On the other side are the Lions of Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna. Under the direction of head coach Dameon Jones, this program has climbed the ladder and now sits in a position that they can win their second national title.
If this team wins out, there is not a poll that would be taken seriously if the Lions weren’t comfortably on top. But to accomplish that there is St. Frances Academy on Saturday, and that will be a rather large obstacle.
