The Apopka Blue Darters moved up to #1 in the most recent Associated Press Poll of 8-A high school football teams. Apopka moved ahead of the the Dr. Phillips Cougars (previously #1), and Deerfield Beach (remaining at #2). The Blue Darters were ranked #3 in the previous week's poll.
For the first time this season, the Wekiva Mustangs landed in the poll, with a #10 ranking after a 14-0 victory over Dr. Phillips last Thursday. They are tied in the 10th spot with Winter Park.
Apopka is coming off a 55-12 victory over Jacksonville Mandarin on Friday, and a 21-14 win over Dr. Phillips on Monday (although that victory was not taken into account for this poll).
