Miami Central is now a four-time reigning Florida high school football champ. Friday night, the Rockets, ranked No. 2 in the High School Football America 300 national rankings, powered by NFL Play Football, beat No. 8 American Heritage (Plantation) 38-31 for the 2M state championship.
Now, the question is, was it enough to push Central to the top of our national rankings. The Rockets were just a hair (.00015 in HSFA algorithm) behind St. John Bosco (California) in the hunt for the 2022 national championship.
Central was dominant in the first half, taking a 31-13 lead into the locker room. In the second half, AH kept closing, but couldn’t catch the Rockets.
