Hillsborough & Pinellas Week 10 Roundup & Top performances
Plenty of former district champions returning back to their rightful place when it comes to winning titles. Two teams that come to mind immediately were Plant and East Lake returning to the district championship winner’s circle. The Panthers won their first district title since 2018 and the Eagles claimed its first since 2016.
Both programs are looking to make a postseason run in Class 4A-Metro. Going around the area, Clearwater Central Catholic also locked themselves into a district title after cruising past Seffner Christian. Jesuit knocked off Hillsborough to win its respective district.
Plenty of final scores and top performances from around the Tampa Bay Area in the Week 10 slate. Down below we’ve got all the scores and some top performers.
