Palm Beach Loaded For The Class of 2027
In this article:
As we have had the chance to watch plenty of spring football for the past three weeks, gearing up for the summer, there are different areas of the state that are showcasing some future players.
From Pensacola to Key West and everywhere in between, we will have the opportunity to spotlight players and teams in all classes, watching and evaluating the impressive talent that the Sunshine State annually produces.
As we are getting closer to putting out our first Class of 2027 state rankings – the first of 10 over the next two plus years – seeing athletes live and using film as an enhancement is what we have done of over six decades.
As we have the opportunity to watch more and more prospects, we have the opportunity to bring them to you every day via our social media, which college coaches are checking out to get a jump on the process.
With so much elite talent in the West Palm Beach area, today we bring you some of the rising juniors in the Class of 2027 to keep an eye on.
