High School Football in Wacky Weather
High school football in Pinellas County often faces unpredictable weather. Last week's hurricane caused games to be rescheduled to Monday and Tuesday.

Week 7
key games to keep an eye on:

GZP's Pick: Pinellas Park 30-28
*Boca Ceiga (3-2) vs. Lakewood (2-4)- A rivalry game with inner city bragging rights.I'm sure this one was circled on he schedule before he season started!
GZP's Pick: Lakewood 28-24
*Largo (4-2) vs. St.Pete (5-1) - This game has a classic feel to it. Which team wants it more?"
GZP's Pick: St.Pete 22-17
* Osceola (3-2) vs Seminole (4-1) These schools are less than 3 miles apart, so I'm certain this will be a fierce battle!
GZP's Pick: Seminole 21-17
These games are sure to be competitive and could have a significant impact on the standings.

Player Spotlights
This last week, several players showed the potential to make a big impact. Keep an eye on these standout athletes:
Makih Johnson WR (Tarpon springs) - A D1 WR that has been a great addition for the Spongers will be key tonight against the Patriots!
Da'Mari Green Saf (Lakewood) - A Saftey that will have to control the back end for the Spartans tonight against a high powered passing attack of the Pirates
Largo's Defense (Largo High) - Will this defensive unit be able to corral ATH Jeff Jones? He is the weapon that makes the Devils offense go!
Gavin Galish QB (Osceola) - The QB has been solid and has weapons at his disposal. Will the warhawks be able to stop everything that will be thrown at them tonight?
Eli Millian QB (Eastlake)- Has been the man for the Eagles and leads the county in passing yards. Can he carry them the rest of the season?
