Preview: Coral Springs Colts vs. Monarch Knights

Coral Springs has enjoyed the comforts of home their last two games, but now they'll head out on the road. They will challenge The Monarch Knights at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday. Coral Springs will have to bring their A-game into this one, as they are staring down a pretty big deficit in the MaxPreps Florida Rankings (they are ranked 384th, while Monarch is ranked 52nd).

After soaring to 36 points the game before, Coral Springs were a bit more limited in their match on Friday. They lost to Boyd Anderson at home by a decisive 21-6 margin.

Meanwhile, after a string of five wins, Monarch's good fortune finally ran out on Friday. They took a 35-19 bruising from St. Thomas Aquinas. Monarch was down 35-12 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.

Monarch's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Jabari Brady, who picked up 125 receiving yards and a touchdown, and Jack Spaeder who threw for 236 yards and two touchdowns. Clayton Cannon ii also helped out as he racked up 104 receiving yards.

The losses dropped Coral Springs to 4-4 and Monarch to 6-2.

Coral Springs took a serious blow against Monarch when the teams last played back in October of 2022, falling 40-0. Can Coral Springs avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
