Spanish River 26, Olympic Heights 13:
After winning only 2 games in their past 50 prior to this season, the Sharks are now 3-0. “This was like a college game atmosphere tonight!” said Sharks coach Ray Berger. “We’re really excited for these kids; they have certainly taken a beating the last few years.” The Sharks were led by Reggie Love, who had two touchdown catches and put the Sharks up 26-0. Former Olympic Heights QB, Taylor Schnaars was 10-for-21 for 254 yards with three touchdown passes.
West Boca 21, Lake Worth 20
After serving a two-game suspension, senior Jawand Blue had a 46 yard touchdown run. The teams traded touchdowns throughout the game, but at the end it was decided by a missed PAT that was bobbled by the Trojans.
Merritt Island Christian 41, Boca Christian 6:
The Cougars had a 27-0 lead going into the half. Boca Christian completed only 10 of their 21 passes and only had only 80 total yards the entire game. Heber Michel had 16 tackles and rushed for 23 yards and a touchdown on five attempts, but the Blazers fell to the Cougars in Boca Raton.
North Broward Prep 53, Pope John Paul II 0:
Semar Smith rushed for 102 yards and two touchdowns as North Broward handled Pope in Coconut Creek.

Gary Gladden let the way for the Scots. Rushing just over 100 yards, finding the end-zone four times, three by running and one from a pass, St. Andrew’s took care of John Carroll.
Jupiter 26, Boca Raton 19
After a great comeback win against West Boca in week one, the Bobcats have lost two straight now. The Bobcats played the Warriors, and got the best Warriors effort of the season thus far. The Bobcats could never really get any offense going, and with their lead runner, Keith Byars II out of the game due to injury, Boca was held to only 70 yards rushing.
