The lone notable takeaway was Armwood, a team that entered the Top 25 a week ago after their win over Jesuit, falling a total of five spots after they were defeated by Wharton.

Preseason Rankings
Kickoff of the 2022 Florida high school football season is now merely weeks away. In anticipation of the season’s beginning, here are our 2022 preseason Top 25 rankings for Florida high school football Classes 3M, 3S, 4M, and 4S, combining the new Metro and Suburban divisions at each level. (Note: Independent schools will also be included in the 3M, 3S, 4M, and 4S Top 25 this season.)
1 – IMG Academy (Independent)
Consistently one of the nation’s top teams, IMG Academy returns notable key names such as Francis Maugioa, Samuel M’Pemba, Carnell Tate, and Desmond Ricks, as well as having added numerous transfers to an already loaded roster. There are simply not many glaring weaknesses on this team, making this Ascenders group the clear preseason No. 1 in our 2022 Florida 4M/S and 3M/S Top 25, and potentially one of the most talented squads the school has had in recent years.
2 – St. Thomas Aquinas (3M)
St. Thomas Aquinas likely will be among Florida’s best again in 2022, thanks to a roster headlined by names such as King Mack, Conrad Hussey, and James Madison II. Coming off a 7A state title a year ago, the Raiders have one of the deepest wide receiver and secondary groups in the state, and could very well be the favorite to win a strong Class 3M.
3 – Jesuit (3M)
The Tigers had one of the best seasons of any team in Florida a year ago, going undefeated to capture the Class 6A state title. Jesuit should be a major player in Class 3M this season, led by a roster that returns multiple key names such as Troy Bowles, Joquez Smith, and Luke Knight.
4 – Venice (4S)
Venice won the state title at Florida’s highest classification, Class 8A, a year ago, and enter 2022 among the preseason favorites in 4S. The No. 4 preseason pick in our 2022 Florida 4M/S and 3M/S Top 25, the Indians return a talented team this season, especially with a defense headlined by the duo of edge rusher Damon Wilson and safety Elliot Washington.
5 – Lakeland (4S)
Despite a first-round playoff exit a year ago, Lakeland enters 2022 among the preseason favorites in Class 4S. The Dreadnaughts have a deep roster headlined by transfer addition Cormani McClain, as well as others including Tyler Williams, Shadarian Harrison, and Guerlens Milfort.
6 – Tampa Bay Tech (3M)
Tampa Bay Tech is another team to watch for in Class 3M entering the season, after a 2021 campaign in which the Titans lost only one game as the 7A runner-up. The offensive side of the ball should again be a strength for the Titans, who return one of 3M’s top quarterbacks in Xavione’ Washington.
7 – Apopka (4M)
After the Blue Darters finished last season as the 8A runner-up, Apopka is the preseason favorite in Class 4M. The Apopka defense was one of the best in the state a year ago, and the Blue Darters return a few key names on that side of the ball, most notably edge rusher Kaven Call.
8 – Pine Forest (3S)
The Eagles finished as the 6A state runner up a year ago, falling to Jesuit 35-29 in the state title game. One of the preseason favorites in 3S, Pine Forest returns a significant amount of production from that team, most notably on offense with the trio of Tierra Wilson, Kobe Johnson, and Miequle Brock.
9 – Buchholz (4S)
The Bobcats made a 7A state semifinal appearance a year ago, and enter 2022 as one of the top teams in Class 4S. Buchholz’s offense should again be a strength; the group returns numerous key contributors, including quarterback Creed Whittemore.
10 – Edgewater (3M)
Despite falling in the 7A regional semifinal round a year ago, Edgewater is yet another team at the top of a loaded Class 3M entering the season. Led by one of the state’s top running backs in Cedric Baxter Jr., the Eagles are a candidate to make a deep playoff run again.
11 – Miami Columbus (4M)
12 – Jones (3M)
13 – Seminole (4M)
14 – West Orange (4M)
15 – Lake Gibson (4S)
The second level of our 2022 Florida 4M/S and 3M/S Top 25 picks features three teams from Class 4M, each of which could easily make a deep playoff run this season. This group also includes a few notable returning quarterbacks such as Adrian Posse and Luke Rucker, as well as Jones edge rusher Malik Bryant, who transferred from IMG Academy in the offseason.
16 – Miami Palmetto (4M)
17 – Treasure Coast (4S)
18 – Osceola (4S)
19 – Western (4M)
20 – Palm Beach Central (4M)
Miami Palmetto might be the headline name from these five, but they aren’t the only team from Class 4M, as both Western and Palm Beach Central are represented as well. All three return key names, while 4S’s Treasure Coast and Osceola should again be strong in 2022.
21 – Merritt Island (3S)
22 – Dillard (3M)
23 – Lake Mary (4M)
24 – Vanguard (3S)
25 – Clearwater Academy International (Independent)
Headlining this final group in our 2022 Florida 4M/S and 3M/S Top 25 is Merritt Island, the 5A state runner up from a year ago. Each of these teams could easily make a deep playoff run, with Dillard as a potential team to watch for in particular in Class 3M.
Stay tuned next week as we release our Florida Class 2-1 M/S/R preseason Top 25 rankings for the 2022 season.
