LARGO FOOTBALL 2022. Head Coach: Marcus Paschal 2021 Record: 5-6 THE PACKERS Even though this team made the playoffs, it took plenty just to get a first-round game with eventual 7A state runner up Tampa Bay Tech, which they dropped 30-7. In between those losses to Pinellas Park (38-14), Tampa Gaither (28-24), Clearwater (15-12), St. Petersburg Lakewood (32-29) and St. Petersburg Northeast (21-14), there were five wins. Keep in mind that with the exception of tough losses to Pinellas Park and Tampa Bay Tech, the other four setbacks were by a total of 17 points, so things could have definitely been different. Wins against Winter Haven (35-14), Gulfport Boca Ciega (22-20), New Port Richey Mitchell (35-28), Tampa Sickles (25-7) and Tampa Leto (64-0) gave the Packers the confidence needed, heading into the off-season. With a solid spring and productive summer, here is a look at some of the prospects you will want to keep an eye on this coming season: PROSPECT WATCH CLASS OF 2023 Jamari Bennett (DL, 6-0, 245) Kanye Crenshaw (OL, 5-11, 270) Damarkus Goss (OL, 6-3, 270) Davion Jackson (DB, 5-9, 160) Zayvion McCluster (RB/LB, 6-2, 200) Fotu Nafitali (LB, 5-10, 180) William Pace (PK, 5-11) Ricky Shaw (DB, 5-10, 180) CLASS OF 2024 Teegan Sanders-Davis (OL, 6-2, 245) Chase Green (Athlete, 5-10, 180) Adarius Hayes (LB/TE, 6-4, 210) Chris Kalu (DL, 5-11, 250) Marcus McCluster (DB, 6-1, 165) Jeremy Thomas (QB, 6-3, 210) CLASS OF 2025 Connor Heinz (OL, 6-2, 250) Kino Middleton (Athlete, 5-6, 150) PHOTO COURTESY OF LARGO FOOTBALL Tracking Florida’s Football Teams For 2022 - https://prepredzone.com/2022/04/tracking-florida-football-teams/ You Can Contact [player_tooltip player_id="111610" first="Larry" last="Blustein"] with prospect or team information at: Floridakids1@aol.com.
