Fort Lauderdale may have come out ahead in their last match, but they shouldn't get too cocky given who is up next. They will go up against St. Thomas Aquinas in continuing playoff action. Both teams have allowed few points on average (St. Thomas Aquinas 7.91, Fort Lauderdale 13.73), so any points scored will be well earned.
St. Thomas Aquinas might be getting used to good results now that the squad has six wins in a row. They took the game with ease, bagging a 77-20 victory over South Miami last week. Senior Daniel Carter, who rushed for 106 yards and 2 touchdowns on 8 carries, was a major factor in St. Thomas Aquinas's success. Carter has now scored at least one touchdown in the past 11 games.
Meanwhile, Fort Lauderdale put the finishing touches on their fifth blowout victory of the season. Everything came up roses for them against Doral Academy as the team secured a 54-7 win. That 47-point margin sets a new personal best for Fort Lauderdale on the season.
St. Thomas Aquinas were fully in charge the last time the two teams met, breezing past Fort Lauderdale 49-0. Since neither squad is a stranger to landslide victories this season, you'd better bet it will be hard-fought showdown.
