Reeling off records of 11-2, 10-1, 12-2 and 8-4, this program has certainly been impressive, and while Hollywood’s Chaminade-Madonna has been a major obstacle over the past three seasons, the Lions are now in 1M – far away from this team.
With Friday night’s state semifinal meeting with 10-2 Fort Myers Bishop Verot, this program is one step close to winning a state title at home.
With a quality senior class and some impressive underclassmen, the Seminoles have been able to accomplish some amazing things this season.
That senior class includes Donovan Barnes Donovan Barnes 5'10" | 165 lbs | DB Tallahassee Floridag | 2023 FL (CB, 5-10, 160), D.J. Broxton (DB, 6-1, 170), Jalon Carter (RB, 5-10, 175), Christopher Cotton (DT, 6-1, 200), Alexander Day (CB, 5-8, 155), Brooks Hickman (WR, 5-10, 165), Ryan Knight (OLB, 5-11, 185), Brandon Neal (FB, 5-10, 170), Rhyder Poppell Rhyder Poppell 5'10" | 180 lbs | RB Tallahassee Maclay | 2023 FL (RB, 5-10, 195), Stephen Singleton (DT, 5-11, 240), Cameron Thomas (DT, 6-6, 280), Jack Wemm (LS/WR, 5-10, 155) and cornerback Tay Young (6-1, 190).
THIS TRAIN WILL KEEP ROLLING
As impressive as this year has been, this is not the end for this team. The building process includes 2024 juniors Wyatt Crosby (OL, 6-2, 320), Micahi Danzy (RB, 6-0, 165), Mark Faircloth (OL, 6-5, 320), Jacques Gilliam (WR/DB, 6-0, 165), Ashton Hampton (WR, 6-3, 185), Tyson Howard Tyson Howard 5'11" | 180 lbs | DB Florida State University | 2024 FL (FS, 5-11, 165), Keisean Inman (WR, 5-9, 155), Jeremy Johnston Jeremy Johnston 6'1" | 185 lbs | QB Florida State University FSUS | 2024 FL (QB, 6-2, 190), Darrick McGhee Jr. (LB, 5-11, 210), Rolando Robbins II (OLB, 5-10, 200) and offensive lineman Eli Williams (6-0, 305).
The sophomore class is also stacked with prospects – like Maurice Adams Jr. (DT, 6-2, 230), Josiah Broxton (LB, 6-0, 200), Jessiah McGrew (CB, 6-1, 170) and running back Jayden Threatts (5-10, 175). There is also promising freshman quarterback Cannon Cowhey (5-8, 140).
