| | | | FHSAA regional semifinal football: Jones upsets Edgewater; No. 1 Lake Mary falls vs. Mandarin | How Magic again found way to escape Bulls with late win | UCF, UF, UM and B-CU facing big challenges | | | | Round 2 of the FHSAA high school football playoffs had 12 Orlando area teams in the running for state championships. Big games included Jones at Edgewater, Apopka-Seminole, Jacksonville Mandarin-Lake Mary and DeLand-Orange City University, with all four games rematches from the regular season. | | | | | Behind Franz Wagner (21 points) and 50 from the Magic's bench, Orlando put together another down-to-wire road win over the Bulls. That's just the resiliency of this team," said Gary Harris, who was inserted into Friday's lineup with Jalen Suggs out. | | | | | This contest, and the Bayou Classic between Southern and Grambling, are the marquee events each year for Historically Black Colleges and Universities and each school wants the bragging rights in a bad way. | | | | | The Knights (5-5, 2-5 Big 12) are one win away from being bowl eligible for the eighth consecutive season. Two games remain, including a road contest at the Raiders (5-5, 4-3) on Saturday (5 p.m., FS2). | | | | | The transfer portal initially hurt Mike Norvell as veterans departed and FSU was the youngest team in college football in 2020. Of the 24 prospects who signed as part of the transition 2020 class, just weeks after Norvell arrived, only 10 remain at FSU. | | | | | Missouri running back Cody Schrader's rise from walk-on transfer from Division II Truman State to a Tigers star is as improbable as his 321 yards from scrimmage in last Saturday's 36-7 rout of Tennessee. | | | | | Hurricanes QB Tyler Van Dyke has struggled mightily in ACC play, throwing 11 interceptions in five games and getting benched. But the veteran is back in the starting lineup vs. Louisville. | | | | | Annabella Tomasic is not the first seventh grader to win an FHSAA title, but she might be the most promising runner her age that Florida has ever seen. Joining her on the awards stand was Hagerty senior Jonathan Leon, who placed a close second in the 4A boys race with a time of 15:07.0. | | | | | It's cross-country state finals day with four classes running in Tallahassee. There was a local race winner from Lake Highland Prep, and top 5 team finishes from East Ridge, Hagerty and Master's Academy. | | | | | The Gators had a 36-11 lead with 8:18 to go before halftime. | | | |
