Undefeated Lakeland (11-0), the No. 9 team in the nation in the latest SBLive/Sports Illustrated Top 25 National High School Football Rankings, appears to be rolling towards a second straight state title. In this week's Region 2-5A championship, however, the Dreadnaughts have an interesting challenge as Tampa Bay Tech (8-2) visits.

The Titans come in full confidence, as they won eight straight games, with Oregon commit Dallas Wilson and UCF commit Santonyo Isaac leading the way. Lakeland's defense is anchored by 2026 linebackers Malik Morris and Bryson Jones.
