3A State Title Matchup This Evening; Trinity Wins 2A

Talk about a matchup that everyone has been asking for. As veteran head football coach <strong>Dominick Ciao</strong> brings his unbeaten Tampa Berkeley Prep Buccaneers into this evening's game against Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna, there is a sense that they belong – and after last year's narrow loss to the Lions – everything points to a tremendous matchup. With talent on both sides of the ball, this is a team that has breezed through the 2021 season, staying on the heels of Chaminade-Madonna every step of the way. Dominating wins, including against Isadore Newman and QB Arch Manning. They are set and anxious for the 7:00 kickoff at Gene Cox Stadium in Tallahassee. <strong> </strong><strong>THE LIONS HAVE DONE SOME SPECIAL THINGS</strong> As the Buccaneers come in a perfect 12-0, head coach <strong>Dameon Jones</strong> and his team have suffered one loss – a close contest to defending 5A state champion Plantation American Heritage in a game that they held the lead until two length lightning delays. But you don't want to sit here and match the Lions schedule with anyone in the nation!!!! They have beaten three defending champions and ALL 12 of their opponents made the playoffs. Not one breather on the schedule that saw this team – winners of three of the past four 3A state titles – yield 9 points a game and hold five opponents without a touchdown. Making their six straight state appearance, losing last year after holding an advantage against eventual state champion Jacksonville Trinity Christian. <strong>Berkeley Prep Buccaneers (Tampa)</strong> <strong>Record: </strong>12-0 <strong>Head Coach: </strong>Dominick Ciao <strong>10 Players To Watch: </strong>Travis Bates, Sr., RB, T.J.
