Three of the high school football season’s biggest games took place on Friday night, headlined by four of the top teams in the Super 25 rankings. And the buildup didn’t disappoint as No.11-ranked IMG Academy took down No. 2-ranked St. Frances Academy on the road, 27-16, to kick things off.
That win was joined by a nail-biter in Miami, Fla., where No. 3 Central avoided an upset at the hands of city rival Northwestern 34-30.
No. 6 Buford (Ga.) wasn’t so lucky, as the Wolves fell to the Walton Raiders (Ga.) 42-35.
And that was just the beginning of the night. California powers Mater Dei and St. John Bosco had statement wins over Los Alamitos and Mission Viejo, respectively, to end the evening.
