4. (4) Bartram Trail (3-1), Class 8A

Last week: d. Mandarin, 23-8.

This week: at (9) St. Augustine (2-1).

Last week: d. Sandalwood, 20-16.

This week: at Tallahassee Chiles (1-3), Thursday

Last week: d. Jackson, 31-14.

This week: vs. Clearwater Academy (3-1), 6:30 p.m.

Last week: d. Middleburg, 54-37.
