Delray Beach Atlantic A Motivated Team

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moments after his team dropped a heart breaker in the Region 14-5A final in overtime, Delray Atlantic head coach <strong>Jamelle Murray</strong> and his team knew that they had arrived as a state power.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>While nobody likes to lose, that 49-42 setback against six-time defending state champion Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas showed the Eagles that are now at the level where they can stand toe-to-toe with anyone.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In finishing 11-2 (10-3 on the field), this is a football team that is getting recognized by football fans and those who follow the sport across the state.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Their only on field losses in 2024 came against Orlando The First Academy, a powerhouse, that had to forfeit the win to the Eagles, and 6A state champion West Boca Raton.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Turning out big time talent and already being mentioned as a team to keep an eye on once again at a state Top 20 team, this off-season will be about filling holes left by graduation, but at the same time adding young prospects to positions that will make this team go.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Obviously, if this team is to achieve those lofty goals once again in 2025, it will be the rising senior (2026) class that will provide talent and experience along with leadership.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here is a look at some of those 2026 players to keep an
