GRR: Okapi Wanderers
Okapi Wanderers won the Florida Region 2 Boys HS championship Saturday, scoring on the final play of the game to edged St. Thomas Aquinas 26-24.
In a game that was certainly closer than Okapi expected, St. Thomas could not be shaken, and in fact led with time almost up.
The Florida HS playoffs continue this weekend after a day of surprise results last week.
In Region 1, Naples is at Orlando, and Westside is at Tampa. Those are region semifinal matchups that were decided a week ago. Tampa has beaten Orlando twice and Naples twice. Meanwhile, Naples and Orlando have not played each other, but Orlando has dominated in their pool.
Florida’s HS season has run into some issues as the attempt to divvy up teams into districts has run afoul of the lack of depth in some teams.
The Okapi Wanderers team continued their preseason with a 71-0 defeat of Sarasota HS in Florida.
The Okapi Wanderers defeated the Riviera Beach Maritime Academy in a preseason non-league match Saturday.
