<p>Throughout the next few weeks and into the season, we spotlight prospects throughout the state – giving the football fans a chance to know the teams in Florida.</p>

<p>Today we are back in Duval County to see what the Jacksonville Bolles Bulldogs have cooking for 2024.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>When the 2023 season came to an end and this team walked off the field in the 3A state semifinal contest at Traz Powell Stadium in Miami, they had a feeling that the 2024 season would be different.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>While that 28-7 setback to Miami Norland looked like the game was never in question, this team fought hard, only trailing 14-0 at the half.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Other than a setback to Lake City Columbia, Head Coach <strong>Matt Toblin</strong> and his district championship team lost to St. Augustine (3S state runner up), Jacksonville Mandarin (4M state runner up), Coffee County, Georgia (state champion), Tampa Berkeley Prep (2M state champion) and Miami Norland (2M state runner up) in the third round of the state playoffs – as this program went 6-2 down the homestretch.</p>
