The previous week of the 2026 high school football season was nearly a perfect one for this sports reporter.
I went 8-1 last week, only missing St. Edward's 30-24 victory at Okeechobee. But even with that blemish, I was able to extend the cushion over the audience to a four-game lead over the course of the season.
Let's see who gets the edge this week when all of the area's action takes place on Saturday.

OKEECHOBEE — Undermanned while facing a larger school, the St. Edward's High School football team had just enough gas left in the tank to cross the finish line.
The Pirates enjoyed a 30-6 advantage against Okeechobee with a little more than 10 minutes remaining before the host Brahmans made a charge, scoring three touchdowns in the fourth quarter. However, the visitors were able to exhale as time expired following the home team's final trip into the end zone.
St. Edward's ended a three-game losing streak after outlasting Okeechobee 30-24 in an SSAA battle Friday night at Okeechobee High School.
"Our boys usually rise to the occasion, and they did tonight," Pirates head coach Rich Schofield said. "Hats off to Okeechobee. ... They pushed and pushed us right to the very end, but we were able to hold on. That really shows the growth we're looking for."
