South Florida High School Football Champions

     South Florida high schools competed in five FHSAA state championship games on South Dade Kia Field at Pitbull Stadium on the Florida International University campus in Miami this past week. The local tri-county area completed a sweep and won five state championships this year. The South Florida region had three titles in 2021, three titles in 2022 and four titles in 2023. 
     Palm Beach County got their first state championship team since 2013. The West Boca Raton Bulls defeated the Osceola Kowboys 26-7 in the FHSAA Class 6A state title game. The Bulls made their first championship appearance and captured their first football state championship in their 20-year history. 
     Broward County saw their three most powerful high school football teams over the past 10 years win state titles. St. Thomas Aquinas captured their state-record 16th FHSAA state championship with a 34-0 victory over the Lakeland Dreadnaughts. The Raiders expanded their reign with a state-record sixth consecutive state title. STA has won 13 state championships in the past 18 seasons and extended their postseason winning streak to a state-record 30 games. 
     The Chaminade-Madonna Lions picked up their fourth straight state championship as they powered by the Clearwater Central Catholic Marauders 42-7 for the FHSAA Class 1A state title. The Lions, who made their state-record ninth consecutive state title game appearance, won their seventh championship in the last eight years and their ninth overall state title. 
     The American Heritage Patriots survived the Jones Tigers 40-31 in the FHSAA Class 4A state championship game. The Patriots won their first state title since 2020. They captured their sixth overall state football championship in school history
     Dade County resulted in just one high school with a state title. The Miami Northwestern Bulls blanked the Raines Vikings 41-0 for the FHSAA Class 3A state title game. The Bulls were the only high school in that county to reach the title game in their hometown. They picked up their eighth state title in school history.
