How good (or bad) are schools in Boynton Beach, Florida?
Favorite Answer
Atlantic(5A)- hands down a top 5 team year in and year out in the county, they always have good players at the skill positions(search omar jacobs and preston parker 2 recent notable alums), always playoff team but have ran into the powerful St. Thomas Aquinas team from broward in the 1st round the past 3 years, i think their worst record in the reg. season i can remember is 7-3, coaching is suspect but college coaches raid the roster every year they usually have 3-5 kids who can play at the D1-A level
Boca(4A)- a decent team, around 6-4 to 4-6 most years, some great talent has past through the halls(the Bellisari brothers one was a QB 1 a LB both started at ohio state, yvenson bernard is the current starting rb at oregon state, tyler rice recently, many many more) im pretty sure they have a new head coach this year
Boynton Beach(5A or 4A)- DO NOT GO HERE!! i think this year will be the schools 7th and they have never won more than 3 games, a few talented athletes but they dont play as a team, they went 2-8 last year with a freshman QB, new head coach this year
Olympic Heights(4A)- another well below average team, although they do have a good young coach, talent is scarce and wins scarcer, 2-8 last year with a young team with around 35 kids on the roster, slowly improving but will never be a playoff team
Park Vista(6A)- going 2 be a 4th year school and has already made the playoffs the past 2 seasons, solid coaching, some decent athletes, a soph. QB who is going to be an absolute stud, around 6-4 the past 2 years, moving up to 6A from 5A might slow them down a little bit, but definetly a school to think about
Spanish River(5A or 4A)- no hope in sight for this school, a few notable alums(jason geathers, jason cherry), never a playoff team the past 4 years and probably not in the near future, a new head coach this season, usually wins 2-3 games but could manage to go 5-5 if a few breaks went their way, just not enough talent to win in a tough district
Santaluces(5A)- a program with a storied tradition of district championships and playoff runs has fallen off the map recently, mostly due to the opening of new schools taking talent away, 3-7 last year i think, many great players in the past(steve dell, austin capi, a kid who started at mich. state cant think of his name) athletic group, a new coach this year but he coached santaluces before for 10 years and won like 6 district titles, he knows what hes doing, another school to think about but they play in a tough district with atlantic i think
West Boca(5A)- another 4th year school, this would be my choice if i was you, 8-2 last year 2nd round of the playoffs, dominated teams last year, great coach and great athletes, talent flocks to this school, this team is only going to get better
